Joe Biden

I thought that Senator Kerry was eloquent when he said how he chooses to view this question.

We leave before the job is done and we will have a generational problem.

The American people, because they like him, as I like him, believe the President levels with us.

The likelihood of the Saudi Kingdom remaining is, I think, is problematic.

How many of your folks are saying at home what you know is the truth?

I think we're going to rue the day when the administration acknowledges that they failed to level with the American people about what was required of the American people in order to make this policy work.

No foreign policy can be sustained without the informed consent of the American people.

I look forward to supporting her nomination both today and when we will have a vote of the full Senate.

In truth, they haven't changed, in 19 months.

That translates, then, that we have to keep American forces in large numbers there for at least six months to a year, right?

You all don't do anything except parrot, 'We've trained 120,000 forces.'

So do me a favor--as my mother would say, 'God love you, please do me favor'--start to tell the whole deal.

It's not about criticizing the administration. It's about, I believe, a recognition on the part of our trainers...

Didn't the Department of Energy also----

I just reject the analogy between the two.

All we want to know is, how are you going to face it with the $15 billion bucks that's sitting out there now, that you haven't spent, and, you know, you don't know what to do with?

Well, you're in a hypothetical with China. You make a lot of deals with China. Their human-rights record is horrible.

That's not what Qaddafi told me. I asked him why he made the deal.

If they got that deal, would we sign it?

Is that a good idea?

But to pretend we didn't leave them that impression, and leave the Congress the impression.

I've seen nothing--nothing, nothing, nothing, up to that date, to indicate they had reconstituted their nuclear capability.

He deserves a special place in hell. A special place in hell.

Yesterday, you claimed my colleague Barbara Boxer was impugning your integrity when she asked you about the changing rationale for the war in Iraq.

But instead of seizing the opportunity, it seems to me, Dr. Rice, you danced around it.
