I called the leader in my own party a liar and the White House chief of staff the son of the devil's spawn.

When four guys jump on you to wrestle you to prove that you're 50 years old, anything can be called anything, Larry. And what it's all about is innuendo. It's all about using language to destroy people.

Now they're saying I groped a male staffer. Yes, I did. Not only did I grope him. I tickled him until he couldn't breathe. And then four jobs jumped on top of me. It was my 50th birthday.

I am absolutely, positively not interested in happy California cows. I am absolutely committed to thriving and surviving New York farms.

Why should we not create a law that says every dollar of emergency U.S. foreign food aid has to come out of a U.S. farm?

the entire concept of market-driven solutions favors those that you represent, but in my opinion has absolutely nothing to do with the reality that actual dairymen face.

I have learned one overarching and critical factor about what we face today, and that is the incredible and often tremendously unfair impact that our import/export policies have upon local, domestic dairy production.

Would I be correct to open and reexamine--and I will not ask the question in a way that taints my opinion--would I be correct to open and examine the incredible, obnoxious, negative, counterproductive program that we have now to flood our…

No one has died from drinking 2 percent milk.

It is very, very important that we do not overpenalize general aviation and act in a heavy-handed draconian manner that will destroy a large industry that brings so much to this country.

I very strongly believe that my number one duty as a Member of the United States Congress is to protect the interests of the individuals of the United States of America.

The pain is real. The call to action is right now.

I think that by engaging ourselves in these open-door, free-trade policies that have allowed this to happen is at the very core of negligence on the part of our Federal Government.

I would just observe that, while it is not a fast process and it does, in fact, require planning and execution, if we start now, maybe two years from now we won't have to ask questions again.

Sir, can you please provide me an answer in writing for the record, if not today, if there is any way to accelerate the procurement of these aircraft in a hot production line so that finally, as we spend the billions of dollars that we…

My experience with people returning from that theater have told me, at the operational level, that the number one requirement shortfall in Afghanistan is consistent capability for high-density altitude and high-altitude vertical air…

I think your concern, though, is well-founded, because you are talking about an agency that hasn't had to pay attention to these things to the extent of some of the challenges we see with the Department of Homeland Security.

I implore the Budget Committee not to rest the weight of recent fiscal catastrophes and carelessness on the shoulders of American farmers.

How can this possibly be fair? A farm making $500,000 is not keeping most of that money.

Please do not imagine that we are speaking of the fabled 'millionaire's farms' made possible by huge profits, greed and a lack of oversight.

I honor all of the things you have said. It is incredible how far so many have come so quickly considering the starting point on these important issues.

Much of what we have seen in the past 8 months is not speculative. It is either unethical, immoral, destructive or in fact criminal.

I would say that much of what we have seen in the past 8 months is not speculative. It is either unethical, immoral, destructive or in fact criminal.

I have hundreds of constituents in my district, where it is 14 degrees outside back home, and because of the failures cumulatively of this entire industry, will not be able to fill up their propane tank and may end up having to either go…
