Political Quotes

“the brutal and vicious bombing of the Federal building in Oklahoma City continues to tear at the Nation's soul. We are still mourning the loss of so many innocent lives, and asking ourselves how anyone could act with such savagery. The toll from this terrible tragedy would have been even worse, if so many rescue workers and volunteers had not acted so heroically. Their courageous and tireless efforts inspired the Nation. We should all take a minute to commend these heroes. The many law enforcement officials who have worked so hard on this case should also be commended. Their efficient apprehension of suspects and witnesses has impressed everyone. We can all be proud of their efforts. As we continue to deal with this terrible tragedy--the deadliest terrorist attack on American soil--we must find ways to prevent such acts in the future. While no one will argue that we can end terrorism, we can take steps to deter terrorists, make it more difficult for them to kill and injure, and ensure that they are brought swiftly to justice. The President deserves commendation for moving forcefully in that direction with a comprehensive proposal to crack down on terrorists.”
