Political Quotes

“My legislation basically says that no DOD money can be used to send ground troops into Kosovo unless approved by the Congress of the United States. Now, it is right to condemn Milosevic for driving ethnic Albanians out of Kosovo, particularly after the bombing began. And, of course, unfortunately, at the same time, as I mentioned yesterday, we play up to China. Now, Yugoslavia has 114,000 military and they are the size of Kentucky. China is the size of the United States and they have 2.8 million military. They have another reserve of 1.2 million. They are the worst human rights violators in the world. Their own statistics indicate that they execute more in 1 year than all of the rest of the countries in the world, and yet we play up to them. We know that they send nuclear and chemical arms to rogue nations that we have to deal with. Again, I hear a lot of people in the well now supporting this issue who were not here when 1.8 million Sudanese found death through either starvation or because of execution. What was the difference? Where were we then? Who was here in the well claiming that somehow or other we should enter that civil war?”
