waiting littles armageddon
We will have to wait a little longer to see if Armageddon has arrived.
running winning thinking
The question is not whether you would like to be president or not. The question is: Do you think you can win and do you want to run? And none of those are clear to me.
war mirrors want
I would never want to see myself viewed as beating the drums of war, ... but I would rather live with that image than look into the mirror and see a member of Congress who failed to do his duty.
president want vices
I want to tell the vice president and everybody else that when I'm president there will be a controlling legal authority.
cutting favors taxes
I am very much in favor of tax cuts.
believe thinking numbers
I think there [are] great economies that can be made starting with a round of base closings, ... I want the president to veto these pork-barrel spending bills which have grown to incredible obscene levels. I believe there are a number of weapons systems that have to be eliminated.
order internet stores
The 'Main Street' retailers ... see customers come to the store to locate items ... only to leave and order the items over the Internet just to escape the sales tax.
believe internet-access congress
I believe that Congress will and must act before then to renew its objections to multiple and discriminatory taxes on the Internet, as well as to taxes that inhibit Internet access.
party sacrifice significant
All interested parties must be willing to make significant sacrifices.
government average games
In the Washington soft money game, big business and big labor are accomplices working together to protect the mushy middle of big government, with plenty of special interest plums: Big unions get big spending and big business gets corporate welfare and special tax breaks - all at the expense of average Americans.
winning ideas battle
We conservatives can win the ideological battles on a level playing field. Our ideas are better. Given fair elections based on contributions from regular voters, instead of $100,000 checks from business-as-usual special interests, we will prevail.
addiction enemy cunning
I was an addict. That's why, ... I tell you, addiction is a very cunning enemy.
thinking priorities challenges
They're all tied together: taxes, Medicare, Social Security, and the debt. We've got to have a setting of priorities, and looking at it - at each of them as disconnected, I think, doesn't properly address these major challenges.
strong commitment thinking
I think the American people should know there's already strong influences toward another deployment of American troops in an open-ended commitment.
