I do think that the statement that the embassy made was weak. They must have, too, because they withdrew it.
One of the reasons why I am co-sponsoring S. 1381 is because we have to find them answers.
To accuse someone of doing something without a shred of proof that the allegation has any substance is really something I, frankly, don't understand. I think politics are tough, and I enjoy the give-and-take, but I think Harry might have…
It tells me it is terrible, awful and reprehensible, but also again an argument for a sanctuary where the government, such as they had in Benghazi in the case of Libya, where the government can set up the Syrian National Council and issue…
It's clearly a vacuum. People began this revolution were not Jihadists. They were not al Qaeda. In fact, they're exact opposite of al Qaeda. They're people who peacefully demonstrated for the kinds of things that we cherish.
Well, I hope that what we knew would fail would be motivation for the United States to be more involved in stopping this massacre.
I do know that every day that goes by, the more there's the possibility, and I emphasize possibility, that some of these chemical weapons could fall into the wrong hands, even into the hands of Hezbollah, which of course, could pose an…

I still am confident that the Syrian people will embrace democracy the same way the people of Libya just did.
Clearly a vacuum. The people that began this revolution were not jihadists; they were not al Qaeda. In fact, they're the exact opposite of al Qaeda. They're people who peacefully demonstrated for the kinds of things that we cherish.
It is clearly in our interest to accelerate the end of Bashar Assad, which we all agree will happen, but how long and how many have to die is the question, and that's directly related to the United States' direct involvement.
To accuse someone of doing something without a shred of proof that that --the allegation has any substance is really something I frankly don't understand. I think politics are tough. I enjoy the give and take, but I think Harry might have…
At that time, Senator McCain wrote we are no longer talking about how climate change will affect our children's lives as we did a few years ago. We are talking about how it already is impacting the world.
These allegations about Huma Abedin and the report from which they are drawn are nothing less than an unwarranted and unfounded attack on an honorable citizen, a dedicated American and a loyal public servant.

She was genuinely worried about Muslim infiltration of the Obama administration.
To say that the accusations made in both documents are not substantiated by the evidence they offer is to be overly polite and diplomatic about it. It is far better and more accurate to talk straight. These allegations about Huma Abedin…
When anyone, not least a member of Congress, launches specious and degrading attacks against fellow Americans on the basis of nothing more than fear of who they are and ignorance of what they stand for, it defames the spirit of our nation…
Should we have a conversation in the United States about the demand for drugs?
