I want to say that I think that the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Burton) and the gentleman from California (Mr. Lantos) serve this country well and that there are probably no people stronger in defense of America than both of them. I have…
We have a lot of healing to do in this country, and as president I would like to take the country in that direction so that we can move beyond the fear that 9/11 has occasioned.
This is one of those side shows in a serious election where we have troops in Iraq. It was wrong to go in. I want to bring our troops home.
It's wonderful that he is releasing them, but I'm telling you, this is one of those side shows in a serious election where we have troops in Iraq. It was wrong to go in. I want to bring our troops home.
What I need to do is to continue to give the Democrats a choice to get out of Iraq, to have not-for-profit health care and stop these trade agreements that are costing us millions of jobs.
I would like to take the country in that direction so that we can move beyond the fear that 9/11 has occasioned.
I think this whole issue about president's records during the Vietnam War, I think, is a red herring. You know what the real issue is? One hundred and thirty thousand troops in Iraq right now. It was wrong to go in there, it's wrong to…
There are a lot of important issues we should be focusing on liked education or healthcare or the environment, whatever it might be.
This race will not be decided by an endorsement. It will be decided by the voters.
I can't think of anything more urgent on the agenda of our country today than to end the occupation and to bring our troops home.
If you want to Rock the Vote, you have to rock the boat. You have to rock the boat.

This is about safety, who will safely protect the profits of the drug companies. The pharmaceutical industry wants to maintain the world's highest prices in America by telling consumers imported pharmaceuticals are unsafe, even though the…
One of things that we fought for is to protect the rights of the public, and this bill opens the door to further privatization and deregulation of vital human services, including health and water; and what that means is higher profits for…
I want to say that, having worked together in Cleveland in trying to save jobs in the steel industry, we understand what these trade bills do in undermining our jobs. Of course, we are both familiar with the fact that the unemployment rate…
We already see these agreements that have weak labor laws, and this particular bill with a country that has laws that were established by an anti-labor, anti-union dictator, how in the world can our country protect our workers when we are…
In opposing the amendment we recognize that reproductive rights embrace certain human rights. We respect the rights of women to make personal decisions on the number, spacing, and timing of children they wish to bear, what type of birth…
I would say in order for the test to be made to make the request first then imposes our responsibility as Members of Congress, and as a coequal branch of government, we are entitled to do that and the executive branch is entitled to assert…
It would be more than instructive. It would be classified information if the Vice President manipulated CIA analysts to disseminate false, raw unreliable information to justify a war in Iraq. I am hopeful no one is saying that and I am not…
I would maintain that this would not be a subject of whistleblowing, and only the Office of Inspector General or in this case the investigative agency would have an opportunity to be able to get this in an evenhanded way, and it takes it…
I thank the gentleman. Under the gentleman's logic, there would be no reason at all for any amendments to be offered from this floor. We might as well dispense with the amendment process and move to a system in which the committees of…
