Seems lak haf' the country be plumb crazy.
You get that maniac out here to talk with me in person.
This... this... 'coyote' is like, just another tool of this wicked administration, ... I mean are we supposed to accept the fact that it's okay for a predator like this to have nuclear weapons but it's not okay for say, a road runner or a baby harp seal? Coyotes like Wile E. are already waging nuclear war on defenseless road runners every day. I believe the pictures taken by my undercover operatives speak for themselves.
We have a lot of respect for the office of the president, and I have a new respect for him because he was sincere, and he didn't have to take the time to meet with us.
We have to hold him accountable. ... We know he lied, and we know he knows he lied,
That's too much to ask of anybody to adjust to that. But now, they have to adjust to the fact that their mom is always gone. But they know that they are sacrificing and we are sacrificing to bring the troops home and to make sure it never happens again.
I was never told that I couldn't wear that shirt into the Congress. I was never asked to take it off or zip my jacket back up. If I had been asked to do any of those things...I would have, and written about the suppression of my freedom of speech later.
I would love to support Hillary for president if she would come out against the travesty in Iraq. But I don't think she can speak out against the occupation because she supports it.
Most Americans want our troops home by the end of 2006. But that's far too late. Every minute that we wait, more blood is spilled. George Bush still continues his evil rhetoric that he is waging a war on terrorism, and he is really waging a war of terrorism against the world.
Why would I want one more mother -- either Iraqi or American -- to go through what I'm going through? I don't want him to justify my son's honorable sacrifice to continue his murderous killing policies,
I was told my son was killed in the war on terror. He was killed by George Bush's war of terror on the world.
I think our senator needs to be held accountable for her support of George Bush and his war policies.
I think she needs to say I don't have to act like a man to be a good leader, ... She needs to act like a woman and be against the war. I think it's really important for the Democrats to be an opposition party and she is the leader, in a way. She has a lot of power and she's been more of a hawk than most Republicans.
I think I'm more effective on the outside than on the inside.
