Political Quotes

“The bonds that unite us as a Nation go far beyond the partisanship that we sometimes inevitably encounter in this House; and so it is appropriate today that this House, Republicans and Democrats alike, join together to honor former President Ronald Reagan and former First Lady Nancy Reagan through the awarding of a gold medal. The medal recognizes the dedication to public service of both the Reagans. I personally remember President Reagan for many things, but primarily for being such a person of good will toward all. I really do not think he ever harbored any ill will toward any human being. And today we express our good will toward him and his wife. Most especially our prayers and good wishes for the good health and well-being go to them today. Our House would be remiss if we did not highlight and acknowledge the important role and contribution to the Nation of former presidents, regardless of their party affiliation.”
