We'll have a simple policy when it comes to homeless veterans: zero tolerance.

As President, I won't stand for hundreds of thousands of veterans waiting for benefits.

It's not enough to lay a wreath on Memorial Day, or to make a speech on Veteran's Day.

Torture is how you create enemies, not how you defeat them.

The secret authorization of brutal interrogations is an outrageous betrayal of our core values, and a grave danger to our security.

No more unpredictable deployments.

Torture is not a part of the answer - it is a fundamental part of the problem with this administration's approach.

Torture is how you set back America's standing in the world, not how you strengthen it.

It's time to use the Guard and Reserves responsibly.

Torture is how you get bad information, not good intelligence.

I will not be a President who extends tours for our Guard units overseas, while Americans are stranded on rooftops right here at home.

It's time to tell the world that America rejects torture without exception or equivocation.

I will not be a President who sends our Guard off to fight in a misguided war, while telling America's governors to hope that a big snowstorm won't hit next winter, or that a tornado won't come through town.

No more failures to plan, to communicate down the chain of command, or to reset the equipment that we've left in Iraq.

We will be straight with the American people and true to our values.

When I am president America will once again be the country that stands up to these deplorable tactics.

No more extended tours.

I know. He's outraged too about Blackwater.
