members hottest senate
We in the Senate refer to Sen. Gillibrand as the hottest member.
mind lost government-shutdown
They've lost their minds.
cowboy years people
The National Endowment of the Humanities is the reason we have in northern Nevada every January a cowboy poetry festival. Had that program not been around, the tens of thousands of people who come there every year would not exist.
government balance should
American families cannot compete with billionaires. Our involvement in government should not be dependent on our bank account balances
nsa complaining members
For senators to complain that they didn't know this was happening, we had many, many meetings that have been both classified and unclassified that members have been invited to.

We focused attention on what some believe are the flaws in the process leading to Senate consideration of the bill and the flaws of the bill itself.

Social Security is not in crisis. It's a crisis the president's created, period.

The threat to change Senate rules is a raw abuse of power and will destroy the very checks and balances our founding fathers put in place to prevent absolute power by any one branch of government,
giving-up hate fighting
I am convinced that I do not want to give up more power to the White House, whether it's George Bush or Barack Obama. And I'm going to fight as hard as I can against President Obama on these earmarks and my Republican colleagues who hate to vote for them, but love to get them.
