action believe eyes freedoms giving great hope mean pride protecting
What you see in all of their eyes and what you see in all their action is a great pride and professionalism with which they do their job. They believe in what they're doing there.

I mean, Dodd-Frank is strangling small community banks. It doesn't make any difference what the interest rate is. They're not - they're not going to loan the money because they can't make any money for one thing plus the cost of compliance.
mean trying president

I mean, the danger that they're put in, the sexual assaults that are occurring - I mean, all of this is a great consternation, I think, for any of us.
