John Kerry

You do not think we have a specific role to play with the Europeans and Arab community?

What steps are you going to take in the immediacy of your confirmation in the next days?

I do not think they believe it is going on.

I do not think we want this to be an American process.

So what about our own interests and our own efforts with respect to A.Q. Khan?

But are they being served if we do not have direct access to him?

And with respect to Iran, are you also denying or discounting any of the allegations in this article?

Next we're going to have the Iranian campaign. We've declared war on the bad guys wherever they are, the enemy.

We will commence our hearing tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock.

I believe that could be done in three or four years.

With the same amount of money. It didn't add a cent.

I mean, we secured more nuclear fissionable material in the two years prior to 9/11 than we did in the two years after 9/11.

You've allowed summit after summit with Russian President Putin to go by without any action.

Global diplomacy, as you know well, is defined by the issues that a President of the United States chooses to publicly put on the table.

No threat has been greater to us, according to, I think, everybody, than the potential of a 'dirty bomb'.

I don't understand how the administration can choose to spend--now we're going to be close to $300 billion in Iraq to disarm weapons that weren't there.

I answered, nuclear proliferation, globally, and the President agreed.

The only question is why it's not happening at a pace that maximizes the capacity for success and minimizes the potential of disaster.

I want to have happen what you just described.

Current policy is growing the insurgency, not diminishing it.

There have been a series of offers here, and we keep, sort of, making this decision to go it alone.

The question I asked you is, what are you going to do? Why have we rebuffed the efforts of others to be involved--

Your answer disturbed me.

I wish we could have translated your pride into some votes, but thank you, anyway.

I have reservations. And they are not personal in any way whatsoever.
