Listen, if I were the president of the United States, I can tell you right now I would be personally, deeply involved with the leaders of those countries.

I would go to the United Nations directly and challenge the world to become involved in something that the world actually has a legitimate interest in, the outcome of what happens in Iraq.

This president owes Americans a specific explanation of exactly how we are going to achieve that.

People are beginning to understand that the American economy is not working for them. They're working for the economy.

Kerry's campaign has released what it calls a middle class misery index, which spotlights factors, such as job losses and the rising cost of gasoline and health care.

That is good.

The president needs to step up and acknowledge that there are difficulties and that the world needs to be involved.

Under my plan, 99 percent of American businesses and 98 percent of Americans will get a tax cut and I believe that will advance the economy of our country.

The fact is that the deficits, which go out as far as the eye can see, the lack of any one single manufacturing job in those jobs and the huge numbers of jobs that are leaving for overseas tells the real story of the economy of our country.

Simply put, this president didn't tell the truth about the war from the beginning and our country is paying the price.

Those aren't Exxon prices. Those are Halliburton prices ladies and gentlemen.
