QUOTABLES
"I'm sorry if anything that I said
caused any offense or pain to those who have such
bitter memories of the Holocaust, the greatest moral
tragedy of our time,"
said Sen. Dick
Durbin.
"It's time for this country to
start building nuclear power plants again,"
President Bush said.
"If someone said, well, you know,
the governor's testing the national waters, that's a
fair characterization,"
Governor Mitt Romney
said. "But I'm planning on running for
governor. Time will tell, I'll make a final decision
and an announcement in the fall, and we'll go from
there."
I've got to tell you,"
Sean Hannity told Ed
Klein midway through his interview with the author of
The Truth About Hillary. "Do you know
the number of requests I've had to cancel you and not
have you on this program? I think it was higher than
any guest or controversial author we've had on this
program."
"A number of people who have
booked me on TV and radio have already canceled,"
Ed Klein said.
"And the reason they've canceled is because the
publicity machine of the Clintons is hard at work."
"Until the president publicly
takes private accounts off the table, bait and switch
is still a real possibility,"
said the Senate
Democrat Ranking Member on the Finance Committee Max
Baucus.
"I think what the real question
here is: Are Democratic leaders going to start coming
forward with ideas and solutions or are they going to
simply put up a stop sign and say no to solving this
important priority for the American people?"
White House
spokesman Scott McClellan said.
"If the President turns over the
information ... not part of it or a summary of it ...
but turns over all the information requested, the
White House will get their up or down vote on Mr.
Bolton," Democratic
leader Sen. Harry Reid said.
"The goal post is now outside the
ball field,"
Intelligence Committee chairman Sen. Pat Roberts
commented about the Bolton confirmation process.
"We are here [standing up to the
Religious Right] because we can no longer stand by and
watch people speak hatred, division, war and greed in
the name of our faith,"
said Patrick Mrotek,
founder of the Christian Alliance for Progress.
"We forget how many years before
1994 Republicans built up a narrative about who they
are and what they believed. I don't think we can wait
to let people know what our values are and ideas,"
veteran Democratic
pollster Stanley B. Greenberg said. "Democrats
in every battle should be laying out an alternative
view of the world."
