columbia
I’m unelectable in the District of Columbia.
people feel-good want
When you go into public service, you understand you're trading something. You want to feel good about what you do, but you're not going to make what people in private sector make.
bad-ass numbers republican
I can tell you this. It is not going to be evenly constituted and when she was Speaker Pelosi, she certainly showed no interests in having an equal number of Republicans and Democrats.
bad-ass government want
The same Constitution that allows her the right, if she wants to, to sit there and say nothing, allows these groups the right to petition their government for redress.
opportunity bad-ass chance
I would love the chance to ask follow-up questions of Susan Rice because David Gregory apparently did not avail himself of that opportunity. Greta, I just listened to the clip - I get tougher questions in the Bojangles drive-through than he asked her.
jobs judging bonus
I don't like bonuses for public services employees who do great jobs, like prosecutors or judges.
bad-ass president letters
What do we do with a president who can basically change what Congress passed by attaching a letter saying I don't agree with this part or that part?
bad-ass remedy recourse
What is our recourse, Mr. Speaker? What is our remedy?
bad-ass law president
You know, in the oath that brand-new citizens take, it contains six different references to 'the law.' If it's good enough for us to ask brand-new citizens to affirm their devotion to the law, is it too much to ask that the president do the same?
believe bad-ass years
I taught the Constitution for ten years, I believe in the Constitution.
government punishment issues
I don't have an issue with whether - from a legal standpoint, with whether or not government can impose the ultimate punishment on people. We do it in capital cases. Police officers shoot fleeing felons.
summer bad-ass volunteer
I'm going to help the committee regardless of any position I have. I will volunteer to be a summer intern.
firsts first-amendment amendments
The notion that the First Amendment has no limitations whatsoever is balderdash.
jobs errors paper
There's a reason that students don't grade their own papers. There's a reason defendants don't sentence themselves. And there's the reason the State Department doesn't get to investigate itself, determine whether or not it made errors in Benghazi. That is Congress's job.
