Political Quotes

“I will say this. It is a sad commentary on our time when we even have to have legislation like this. You would not really think in a country that is at war, and we are at war, with soldiers in the field, young men and women risking their lives every day, that such disrespect would be shown to them by men and women their own age. My son is a Marine. I cannot imagine him being assigned to a college, a university. He has actually left college to go in the Marines. I cannot imagine him coming home from the sacrifice he has made, going on to that college campus and seeing young men and women who, while he was serving in the Marines, were enjoying their college education because he and other young men and women sacrificed for them and served in their place. Let us not involve our young men and women who are risking their lives every day. Let us not involve them in some policy discussion.”
