Political Quotes

“what this article says is that there is a group of Americans who are talking about the idea that character counts in America, and that we ought to take a good look at ourselves and see if we are neglecting our critical role and responsibility as adults by not speaking out on values and character out of fear that if we get involved we will be told, ``That's not your business, Whose morals? Whose values?'' The article refers to a group called the Character Counts Coalition. To give you some idea of the broad base of support this group has, and to illustrate the political and ideological range of this group, let me just tell you who the coalition's co-chairs are. Former Congresswoman Barbara Jordan is one of the cochairs, and the other is actor Tom Selleck. Obviously, that is a liberal and a conservative.

But here we have two cochairs of obviously diverse political ideologies, who are nonetheless united behind the idea that character counts and are convinced enough of it's importance to lend their names to a coalition.”
