"I opposed this war from the beginning - in part because I believed that giving this President the open-ended authority to invade Iraq would lead to the open-ended occupation we find ourselves in today..."

"It is far too dangerous to have nuclear weapons in the hands of a radical theocracy."

"The time has come for us to seize those opportunities."

"The threat of violence is real. Our job is to renew the United States' efforts to help Israel achieve peace with its neighbors while remaining vigilant against those who do not share this vision."
