Political Quotes

“there are two notable events in American politics this week. First, the House will consider the crime bill. The House version is a thoroughly underwhelming response to the most important problem facing America. In its present form, it will not do enough to curb violent crime; it will not really put repeat offenders in jail longer, and it will not clear away the obstacles to swift and certain justice. In short, its a limited response to an unlimited problem. The second event occurs on Friday, April 15. That is when the American people will be forced to pay for President Clinton's tax increase. If anything, tax day is a cruel reminder of President Clinton's long list of broken promises. So that is what we've got this week--the crime bill and the Clinton bill. One does too little for too much, the other gets too much for too little.”
