We have to be concerned with the number of families that have totally broken down.
It's been said that the family is the test of freedom.
We won passage of our reforms in each House in campaign finance.
Every one of these changes, every step we take, has to be measured in a job that a mother or father finds or an opportunity a child gains.
Together, I believe we can do that.
Inflation is down; interest rates are down to historic lows; the deficit is down; investment is up.

This is their victory, and I'm glad to be a small part of it.
I think the American people would have been real disappointed if Congress had gone home without this bill.
H.R. 3167 makes a significant down payment on systemic reform and contributes to enhancing the economic security of American workers.

I have nominated Lt. Gen. Barry R. McCaffrey to succeed Gen. George A. Joulwan as Commander in Chief of U.S. Southern Command.
It is a wonderful Thanksgiving present for the American people.
