One of his desires before he died... was to see a memorial for all of the World War I troops that served in that Great War.

But at least 200 Mexican nationals died too because of the United States watching these weapons, knowing where they were going and lose those weapons.

The way I see the Fast and Furious operation based on all of the information that I have received, is that United States Government, Justice Department, ATF, we are aware of a situation where guns could be bought in the United States…

Where the residents will be forced to go, we really don't know.

We have a crisis that is taking place halfway around the world, and the United States should be aware of this crisis and the impending deadline.

Drug cartels like the Zetas remind me of the old TV series Paladin with Richard Boone, and their motto is 'have gun, will travel,' and that, to me, is the Zetas.

If you can get to Mexico, you can get to the United States, so it makes sense that world terrorists want to use the drug cartels, who are the absolute best smugglers into the United States, to get into our country.

I think the allegations of people being killed for their organs anywhere in the world is about as bad as it gets.

I would hope we get to the bottom of it and resolve it one way or another.

I will correct you on one thing. Kosovo recognizes them as neighbors. But Serbia doesn't recognize Kosovo.

China needs to be recognized for what they are: A socialist, Communist system.

Some people might think because China's economy has grown... the internal operation of China has changed. It has not.

Some of the bravest Iranian dissidents are those that are willing to risk their lives to voice opposition to the current Ahmadinejad corrupt regime.

We must remember, Madam Chairman, that 85 of these people that are in the camp are either U.S. citizens or permanent residents of the United States.

We should publicly and vocally support a regime change by the freedom-loving people in Iran and the freedom-loving people in Camp Ashraf.

My concern, first of all, is the safety of the people in Camp Ashraf when that 31st comes.

He spent all of his time saying this is the reason they are treated the way they are, because you, United States, have designated them as a foreign terrorist organization.

I think one way that we could help a regime change--and I do believe that is the greatest hope for peace, is that there is a regime change and that the little fellow from the desert, Ahmadinejad, be replaced by his own people.

I think that is not a good situation for the United States State Department to be in, that it should make a decision.

Certainly, if it is still a policy of the U.S., Iran violated the Monroe Doctrine.

The Western Hemisphere has been ignored for a long time, but I think we are starting to remember that what happens to our south is important to our national security.

And we need to, I think, label the drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and deal with them accordingly.

I think maybe more boots on the ground, on the border to keep those cartels from passing into the U.S. is something we need to look harder at.

We have to understand, in my opinion, that this is a growing problem of international terrorist groups in the name of some political philosophy working with the people who will do anything for filthy lucre, money, and what we can do with…

The easiest way to get in the United States, of course, is to go through Mexico.
