Political Quotes

“Madam President I rise to note the passing of a great Republican and a great American. Dr. Albert E. Bullock died on April 7 at the age of 72 at his home in Kensington, Maryland. He had been fighting cancer for some time. Al, as he was known by everyone who knew him, was the husband of my able and dedicated office manager, Katja Bullock. He was also a dedicated dentist and a devoted Republican activist who lived life to the fullest and brought energy and humor to everything he did. Born in Washington, Al served in the United States Navy during World War II and was awarded both the Victory Medal and the American Theatre Ribbon. When he was honorably discharged in 1946, Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal sent him a letter expressing "the Navy's pride" in his service. He became a life-long member of American Legion Post 268 in Wheaton, Maryland. Al attended the University of Maryland and graduated from Georgetown University's School of Dentistry in 1952. He served as a Clinical Instructor at Georgetown immediately after graduating and published original scientific articles in the District of Columbia Dental Society Journal and the Southern California Journal of Orthodontics. He was elected to the National Dental Honor Fraternity and named a Fellow of the Royal Society of Health. Al was an integral part of his community. He was particularly active and important in the Montgomery County Republican Party. And his positions in the party were numerous.”
