armor best body given inaccurate information invading iraq people reasons troops
We now know that the American people were given inaccurate information about the reasons for invading Iraq. We now know that our troops in Iraq were not given the best body armor or the best intelligence.
change comfort continuity cycle democrats good governor hurts level manager national people pick political somebody
I want someone with a national reputation. I want somebody who is a good manager of people and who is a change agent. I think the one-term governor hurts transportation more than anything else because if you change out secretaries of transportation and VDOT commissioners on a four-year cycle you just don't get the continuity you need on the transportation side. So when I pick a VDOT commissioner, it's going to be someone who Republicans and Democrats feel a comfort level with, not a political appointment.
critical pay people political price progress putting time
People will pay a price for putting political obstruction over progress in a time that is so critical and urgent.
people important window
The national security issues are very important for two reasons. First, because everybody knows that we want to be safe. But, secondly, people see these issues as probably the clearest window into somebody's temperament, their judgment, whether they're steady or volatile.
people community police
You build the bonds through the community and police force, build bonds of understanding, and then when people feel comfortable in their communities, that gap between the police and the communities they serve narrows. And when that gap narrows, it's safer for the communities and it's safer for the police.
people law-enforcement bias
People shouldn't be afraid to bring up issues of bias in law enforcement.
teaching believe people
I try to practice my religion in a very devout way and follow the teachings of my church in my own personal life, but I don't believe in America, a first amendment nation, where we don't raise any religion over the other, and we allow people to worship they please, that the doctrines of any religion should be mandated for everyone.
worry people tough
The thing I would worry a little bit about is Donald Trump owes about $650 million to banks, including the Bank of China. I'm not sure he could stand up so tough to the people who have loaned him money.
kids passion people
Here's what people should look at as they look at a public servant. Do they have a passion in their life that showed up before they were in public life? And have they held onto that passion throughout their life, regardless of whether they were in office or not, succeeding or failing. Hillary Clinton has that passion, from a time as a kid in a methodist youth group in the suburbs of Chicago, she has been focused on serving others with a special focus on empowering families and kids.
people poverty dignity
Social security has enabled people to retire with dignity and overwhelmingly not be in poverty. We have to keep it solvent.
party warrior people
But people ought to be proud to be Democrats right now. You know, we're a happy warrior party. And this Congress has every reason to be very, very proud of the heavy lifting that they have done.
thinking people divided
When I talk to people outside the beltway, I don't think people are that divided.
thinking people economic
I think people are very focused on the economic issues. They want an economy that works for everybody.
simple people want
I just want to serve people. I know it sounds like a simple cliche.
