government benefits republican
There is no evidence that government under Republicans will shrink. It`s simply a question of what the government will do and who will benefit.
government issues gains
What the issue here is, you get rid of all the conservative orthodoxy about capital gains, marginal tax rate, supply side economics, you just throw all that out the window, limited government and you just embrace the sheer and raw politics of resentment that have been bubbling the whole time and that`s what you get. You get Donald Trump.
government political faults
The political disfunction that has brought about the shutdown and now threatens default, isn't so much gridlock. It is exposing the fatal flaw in our Constitution and highly distinct system of government. In other words, it's the Constitution's fault. Something truly catastrophic was bound to happen sooner or later.
challenge defense fire improve needs
Our defense needs to really improve more. If we had a little more fire we'd challenge a little more of their shots.
brought chance step tie within
I think of it as a step forward. Because we were down a little bit, we brought it back to within three, and we had a chance to tie it. But I know we can do a lot better than that.
contested gone half hand miss
We could have gone out and contested more. If we put a hand up on half of those shots, they'll miss half of them.
good guys might step
If they're really hot, we have to keep going to them. It's good to have them step up because other guys might have off nights.
couple game games last lose might people support thinking
We want to go into every game being competitive. We don't want to go into games thinking about last year's record. We might lose a couple games, but I don't want people to say 'Here we go again. Same thing.' We need support from the crowd.
fire pick talk
We didn't really talk or anything or say we're going to come out with more fire. We just know we have to pick it up.
drive losing
We're losing that drive that we had in the beginning. We were more hungry.
genuinely
It is genuinely shocking to me that I'm on a television show.
created smartest viewing weekends
I give so much credit to the 'Up' team who created appointment viewing on the weekends for us and some of the smartest conversations on television.
experience featured focused forces labor presidents sharing sitting table trying union workers
I think you'll see if you look at 'Up', we've focused a lot on labor (and the forces trying to keep labor down) and have featured everything from Wal Mart workers, to on-the-ground organizers, to union presidents to restaurant workers sitting at the table sharing their experience and expertise.
experience internet noticing people profoundly topic tv
You start noticing that people are noticing how you look, and it is a profoundly alienating experience when it first happens, where you go on TV and you say something about some topic of the day, and on the Internet people are like, 'What was up with that shirt?' 'What was up with your hair?' And you think, 'Oh, that's kind of a bummer.'
