He thinks that he's in a good place. So definitely had a real chance, a real shot at the nomination here.
John Bel Edwards
The Public Record
John Bel Edwards is an American politician and attorney currently serving as the 56th governor of Louisiana, a position he has held since January 11, 2016. A member of the Democratic Party, Edwards has focused on issues such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure during his tenure. He has been recognized for his efforts to expand Medicaid in Louisiana, which has significantly increased access to healthcare for many residents in the state.
We've committed to operate this house in a carbon-neutral way, which means, in addition to using energy-saving devices in the house itself, to the extent that doesn't cover it, we're going to purchase carbon credits on the market.
The only way that's going to happen is for America to stop enabling them, stop enabling their past bad behavior, and start pulling our troops out of Iraq so that they take responsibility.
I was surprised, when he -- especially at the end of the speech, when he was identifying a whole group of American heroes who were in the gallery. And I sort of got this sense inside of what Americans I think want, which is a sense of…
What's missing here is the president is basically and fundamentally wrong. He seems to think that somehow if we put more troops behind what has been failing time and time again, that it will make it work. And I just think he's wrong.
I would take 40,000 to 50,000 out immediately. And then over the course of the next year to a year and a half, be in the process of withdrawing American troops and redeploying them.
It is the responsibility of the president of the United States to lead when this kind of crisis and this kind of catastrophe occurs, and he hasn't done it.
If I were in charge and I were making decision alone, I think the primary responsibility of this Congress is oversight on what's happening and accountability on what's happening in Iraq.
Look for an announcement tomorrow from John Edwards. That's when the former Democratic senator and John Kerry running mate will declare his presidential candidacy.
We need to get this economy back in line with our values, the things you and I grew up believing in -- hard work, responsibility, integrity, fairness. These are things that George Bush just does not understand.
I think we will win the governor's race in -- in New Jersey. I think Senator Corzine will be successful there.
My own view is the chairman of the DNC is not the spokesman for the Democratic Party.
This is what Rudy did. He blamed the troops. He said, they didn't do their job. He couldn't be more wrong.
Aren't you sick and tired of George Bush and Dick Cheney using our troops as a shield instead of protecting our troops?
Because this president is continuing to try to scare America in his speeches and ads in a despicable and contemptible way. The American people are smarter than they think.
He's exploiting a national tragedy for personal gain. And it's the lowest kind of politics.
And you can't have anything but respect for the fact that they're willing to talk about the fact that they have a gay daughter.
George Bush asked a very important question in the last debate. Be interesting to see if he asks it again tonight. And you may remember it. It didn't get a lot of attention, but it was a very important question. He said, My time up yet?
If we do the work that we can do in this country, the work that we will do when John Kerry is president, people like Christopher Reeve are going to walk, get up out of that wheelchair and walk again.
John Kerry's going to win that debate tomorrow. And one of the reasons he's going to win is because George Bush is out of touch.
