fighting opportunity growth
Fighting climate change isn't just an obligation we owe to future generations. It's also an opportunity to improve public health - and drive economic growth - in the here and now.
polls depends
You can't depend on polls.
party believe independent
We all know that election reform takes time. That's because those who have benefited from the system are the ones who fight hardest to preserve it. So if we're going to succeed, we need an independent coalition of citizens who believe in reform, who believe that our election laws should treat every voter equally, who believe that low levels of competition and participation are not healthy for democracy. The Independence Party is helping to build that coalition and I am happy to join you in doing so.
party coffee today
Today, you're a piranha if you are seen having coffee with somebody from the other party in many cases.
hands play enemy
We would betray our values and play into our enemies' hands if we were to treat Muslims differently than anyone else. In fact, to cave to popular sentiment would be to hand a victory to the terrorists, and we should not stand for that.

If people are not smoking, they'll probably be drinking more.

Progress is not inevitable. It's up to us to create it.
kings may pay
Partisanship may be King in Washington - but the rest of us don't have to pay tribute.

Buy what's deliverable, not what could be.
bridges looks gone
You know, if you look back in the 1930s, the money went to infrastructure. The bridges, the municipal buildings, the roads, those were all built with stimulus money spent on infrastructure. This stimulus bill has fundamentally gone, started out with a $500 rebate check, remember. That went to buy flat-screen TVs made in China.
waiting growth bigs
Is your company so small you have to do everything for yourself? Wait until you're so big that you can't. That's worse.
dog opposites world
One's a dog-eat-dog world, and the other one's just the opposite.
bible election week
A lot can happen in a week - just read any Bible, .. On the seventh day, Election Day, unlike the Bible, we can't rest.
technology years law
In 1975, Congress passed a law requiring fuel efficiency standards to double over 10 years, with incremental targets that auto manufacturers were required to meet. That was the responsible approach, and it worked. But since 1985, we've done nothing - even as technology has moved at light speed.
