Political Quotes

“There are the intellectuals, quote unquote, in the Gingrich revolution that sit over at the Heritage Foundation or sit over in their ivory towers and somewhere around the Capitol in one of these really fancy buildings and think up all these great ideas and are totally out of touch with Margie in Macomb County and totally out of touch with the woman that Ms. DeLauro talked about, that have real problems, living on $8,000 a year, that struggle, that were able to send their kids to college on student loans, that need their Social Security, that use Medicare in the last couple of decades of their lives. They are coming up with these ideas and then these are the ideas they are trying to foist on the American people out of some think tank. The Social Security, Medicare, student loans, we are going to keep fighting for it because those are important and those have made millions of Americans who have brought them into the middle class and kept them in the middle class. That is what all of us should be here for.”
