Dianne Feinstein

We all want renewable energy, but the landscape is an important part of the environment as well.

As an old horse person, these wild horses have a real place in our country.

So the problem is that $500?

And you can be assured if I am around, I will.

Well, in a nutshell, what I am saying is we have specifically appropriated now $62 million to get cracking on these mines, and I am a little bit frustrated trying to find out what is happening.

I think, is a reflection of a failed strategy that we have had with respect to wild horses and burros.

I think I told you about the whitetail deer in the Point Reyes National Seashore, and there was helicopters shooting of these deer by the Park Service.

Our subcommittee clerk actually went and took pictures of some of these, particularly in California and on BLM land.

My parish priest, the pastor, he wrote a very nice letter to Senator Dianne Feinstein in support of my plight.

I think the buildup of huge nuclear weapons, 90 percent of which are owned by Russia and the United States, really endangers the world and really opens us up to all kinds of problems.

I am pleased that the administration has requested no funding for this program in its fiscal year 2010 budget request.

The place is amazing. I have never seen anything like it. It truly looks like Star Wars.

I think a purpose of the lab--or of this program, obviously, is to see that our nuclear weapons are safe without testing.

I think the mission is subtly changing, the mission of the labs. I think the privatization is toward pushing things into the private sector.

The President has made it very clear that he wants a number lower than the 1,700 to 2,200 number.

The promise for the future is so great in terms of nuclear science and what nuclear science might produce as we develop the green economy.

I would agree that there have been administrative changes, security changes, and that is good--at a tremendous price.

It just seems almost cruel to me that in some cases you have cures that are waiting there but people die waiting for that to get approved.

I think anything other than the truth, as somebody knows it at the time, is really unacceptable.

The FDA does not have the authority to require product recalls.

The $50 billion cosmetics industry is one of the least regulated industries in the country.

Most Americans think the FDA regulates cosmetics the same way it regulates food and drugs.

I would like to ask one last question on a subject that I have had a good deal of conversation with of your forest supervisors, and that is the Quincy Library Group, which has been a very frustrating exercise.

We may just change that, Senator, and increase it.

Since 2006, more than 3 million acres have burned in my home State of California alone.
