Political Quotes

“Mr. Chairman, the gentleman from Wisconsin, it seems every time he opposes someone's amendment on this side, the gentleman goes up and in a veiled way makes some kind of attack on their intellect or their goals or their desires.

Mr. Chairman, I am saying before we start giving American taxpayers' dollars to them, we ought to think seriously about whether or not they are going to reform that country in a direction that we do not like.”
