government mend supply
Government can supply bread, but it can't mend a broken spirit.
maybe
I can use most of the tools that every American teenager can master. Maybe not all of them.
became chance defense involved office opposed point time
I'm not questioning Dick Cheney's motives. There's a chance for a conflict of interest. At one point in time, he was opposed to going into Baghdad. Then he was out of office and involved in the defense industry, and then he became for going into Baghdad.
age regardless
I'm proud of my decade-long fight to have all ophthalmologists re-certify, regardless of age.
retirement age way
The only way to save Social Security is to raise the retirement age.
girl children party
This flirtation with isolationism in the Republican party is over. It's giving way to a more muscular foreign policy than I've been advocating. But I'm also advocating building up others. Build a small schoolhouse in Afghanistan to help a poor young girl have a say about her children will destroy the ideology more than a bomb.
self russia peaceful
The more we can have peaceful trade both with Russia, with China, and with others, you know, there's a self interest in this for everyone.
mistake thinking assad
I think those who have wanted regime [of Bashar Assad] change have made a mistake.
america firsts serious
Is Donald Trump a serious candidate? The reason I ask this is, if you're going to close the Internet, realize, America, what that entails. That entails getting rid of the First amendment, ok? It's no small feat.
country tired play
I'll tell you what a weakness is of this country [the USA]: there are a lot of people who are sick and tired because Washington does not play by the same rules that the American people have to play by.
christian islamic heart
We have Islamic rebels [in Syria] who've been eating the hearts or organs of their enemies. We have priests that have been killed. We have Christian villages that have been razed by Islamic rebels. We have Islamic rebels who say they don't recognize Israel and would just as soon attack Israel as [Bashar] Assad. So really, I see no clear-cut American interest, and I'm afraid that sometimes things unravel, and the situation could become less stable and not more stable.
thinking defeat terrorism
I think we defeat terrorism by showing them that we do not fear them.
thinking isis people
Still people want to topple [Bashar] Assad. And then there will be chaos, and I think ISIS will then be in charge of Syria.
mean thinking ideas
Whether or not regime change is a good idea or a bad idea. I don't think because I think the regime change was a bad idea it means that Hussein was necessarily a good idea.
