I read that my lifelong dream is to serve as speaker with Hillary Clinton as president. So what?
Tom Foley was a statesman, and it was a privilege to serve under him when he was the Speaker of the House. He loved our country. He was a gentleman. I had the privilege of seeing him a couple days before he passed away.
Presidents and speakers for over 100 years had tried to pass affordable care for all Americans. It was challenged over and over. The Supreme Court declared it constitutional.
Let me just say as one who has been speaker of the House, I've had to have a very thick skin about every kind of thing that was thrown at me.
Michael Brown has no qualifications for the job. He proved that last week. He removed all doubt.
We intend to do it on the first day we take over the House of Representatives.
Just because he says things are improving there, doesn't make it so.
The president does a disservice to the troops and the American people when he tries to silence those asking questions about putting our men and women in uniform in harm's way,
The American people voted to restore integrity and honesty in Washington, D.C., and the Democrats intend to lead the most honest, most open and most ethical Congress in history.
The American people paid the price of corruption.
No CEO in America would retain a manager with so clear a record of failure, and neither should President Bush,
Port security under the Bush administration is full of holes.

I feel sad for him today, and for his family. But I even feel sadder for the American people, who have had their lives affected by the culture of cronyism and corruption that exists in Washington.
