John Kennedy actually said...

"If civil liberties and legal rights exist only in the absence of a neighbor's religious objection, then they are not rights, but empty promises."

"I commend my colleague, Jan Schakowsky, who has been a champion for consumers throughout her career."

"I want to know if you agree and, if so, would you consider taking action on this matter in the immediate future?"

"We will do so not because it is easy, but because it is hard."
