"Emotionally, you are on the wrong side, you can never win an emotional battle of an intellectual argument."

"I will not accept from Senator Obama, who did not feel it was his responsibility to serve our country in uniform, any lectures on my regard for those who did."

"The point is that the fact that he has made an apology, I think, is very helpful. Whenever someone apologizes for something they did wrong, then, I think that that's a laudable thing to do."
