Jack Kelly Quotations

We decided to vote as a unified bloc,

My concern is that we must convince the state to proceed with widening of Route 9 sometime in the future to ... relieve congestion,

For the year, Xerox's revenue growth should be in the 5- to 6-percent area. In the second quarter, they have to start making progress of about 4 to 5 percent,

GOES satellites help our forecasters to see both the big picture and small-scale storm features. Since they are designed to be stationary, GOES satellites act as steady eyes on the ever-changing weather and climate.

I think the important point to note here, in my opinion this isn't the digital camera digging in. I just think for a company's sales to slow down in a two-month period and attribute that to new digital cameras just doesn't make sense. That camera base is not big enough. A year or two from now maybe that'll be the case. I think this is an economic event we're seeing with Kodak.

I think with regard to this issue, last week was really the news rather than today. Xerox has been turning things around, other than their accounting, by cutting costs. With regard to accounting issues, I would say they've been closely scrutinized.

I think the (brand) franchise is very much intact. However, I think they have to start performing.

I think that's a wise move on the state's part. What's fair is fair.

That does not mean they will not get rain, ... It just means they will get less rain than normal.

I think clearly the pressures will fall heaviest on the products and geographic regions not producing sufficient profitability. It's unlikely the technology business will have any heavy hits. It's growing quite nicely. But some of their mature businesses might.

The question is, what does 'less' mean? I think (analysts) have coalesced around the $600 million-to-$900 million area.

The only thing we're guilty of here is hasty good intentions,

Visitors may want (the vendors), but it's not all about the visitors.

We couldn't have asked for a better turnout, better weather or better organization for this event, ... On Labor Day weekend, a lot of local people are away and 8,000 people cam in from all over the country, spending a lot of money in Philadelphia.

Drought continues to be the major concern for many areas of the country. Areas of eastern Georgia, the western Carolinas, and the Florida peninsula are entering their fourth year of drought.

Especially in the Chicago area, there will be a 10 percent to 15 percent decrease in bets wagered.

There would be nothing to stop them from adding new games in the future.

Any plans to move into that building were premature. But by and large, the Planning Commission supports the idea of bringing the Children's Museum to Elmwood Township. But they have to go through the process.

The Bush Administration got it right when it claimed that the world is indeed flat despite media and scientific community criticism. John D. Sailor, a veteran seaman of some six voyages, has reported that he has been to the edge, and peered into the abyss.

All our efforts on the local level must be focused together toward promoting development that will accommodate the future, especially of Route 9, in a fashion we can all agree upon,

The new synthetics, in a remarkably short time, displaced gunpowder from its 900-year-old niche as the world's only effective propellant, ... By the 1890s nations across Europe were rushing to switch to the improved powder.

It's important to understand the climate is not a light switch and La Nina will take time to change,

The lack of revenue growth isn't a new concern. But investors are probably getting impatient for it to improve.

I look at popular history as a sort of synthesis for the non-expert, ... Scholarly history goes into the primary materials and expands the limits of knowledge about a particular subject. I'm working mostly with secondary materials, for the average reader.

I used to think most Democrats in Congress who voted for [ObamaCare] really believed they were doing something good for the poor and the middle class. Now I wonder. It's crystal clear that just about everything President Barack Obama promised about his health plan was false, his deception deliberate. If Democrats really cared for the people harmed by the law, you'd think they'd admit their mistake, try to fix it. They haven't.

Perhaps they put party loyalty ahead of the welfare of their constituents, are afraid of crossing the president or are as stupid as Mr. Gruber thinks the American people are.

I suspect it's because Truman Democrats have been replaced by Gruber Democrats - self-styled elitists who feed lavishly at the public trough and think government should serve them, not the hoi polloi they disdain and deceive.

You can't top that remark for hypocrisy or the setting for irony. It isn't the middle class who write $32,500 checks. Those who do expect something in return. They've been getting it.

Headlines don't sell papes. Newsies sell papes.

As long as greed, stupidity and cowardice remain a part of the human condition, there will be a constituency for Democrats.

Multiculturalism is social poison. Toleration of intolerance isn't sophistication. It's suicide.

Government grows despite repeated failures to serve the public well because government's purpose no longer is to serve the public. Government now serves primarily the interests of those who work for the government.

The truly greedy, it seems to me, are those who think they've a right to live well at the expense of others.

The top group of fundraisers for Mr. Obama raised $457,834 for his 2008 campaign - and were approved for federal grants and loans of $11.4 billion, according to the Government Accountability Institute. Selling access to the federal treasury has been a great way for Democrats to raise campaign funds. Since 1989, according to an analysis by Gateway Pundit, big donors have provided $416 million more in direct contributions to Democrats than Republicans.
