Early withdrawal from Iraq would result in unarguably, defeat and humiliation for the United States. There’s no question. We would be defeated by definition. We would be humiliated in that defeat.
Tom DeLay ought to go back to Houston where he can serve his jail sentence.
As Commander in Chief of the United States Military, I will never send our sons and daughters and our brothers and sisters to die in a foreign land without telling the truth about why they’re going there.
I was hoping to get a reception like this, I’d just hoped that it would be on Thursday night instead of Tuesday night.
We are the great grassroots campaign of the modern era, built from mousepads, shoe leather and hope.
I’ve resisted pronouncing a sentence before guilt is found. I still have this old-fashioned notion that even with people like Osama, who is very likely to be found guilty, we should do our best not to, in positions of executive power, not to prejudge jury trials.
As governor, I came to believe that the death penalty would be a just punishment for certain, especially heinous crimes, such as the murder of a child or the murder of a police officer. The events of September 11 convinced me that terrorists also deserve the ultimate punishment.
The idea that the United States is going to win the war in Iraq is just plain wrong.
You think people can work all day and then pick up their kids at child care or wherever and get home and still manage to sandwich in an eight-hour vote? Well Republicans, I guess can do that. Because a lot of them have never made an honest living in their lives.
George Bush calls his biggest fundraisers Rangers and Pioneers. We gather here today and we call ourselves simply Americans.

My view is FOX News is a propaganda outlet for the Republican Party and I don’t comment on FOX News.
I may be controversial, but my allegiance is to people outside the Beltway.
I’m tired of the ayatollahs of the right wing. We’re fighting for freedom in Iraq. We’re going to fight for freedom in America.
I will use whatever position I have in order to root out hypocrisy. Democrats have strong moral values. Frankly, my moral values are offended by some of the things I hear on programs like “Rush Limbaugh,” and we don’t have to put up with that.
That’s one of the things about the Tea Party people. They think corporations have too much influence in American life and they do.
This is a struggle of good and evil. And we’re the good.
People have said I’m the candidate of anger. Well, we have a right to be angry. We lost 3 million jobs. We lost our place as the moral leader of the world.
I think we had quite enough capitalism in the last eight years; I think we need some regulation now.
There are no ideas in the Republican Party right now in the Congress. They’re the party of no. They desperately need some intellectual leadership. And whatever you think of Newt Gingrich, he can supply intellectual leadership. So I hope he does run.
