I think they are showing a greater willingness to look for new suggestions, new ideas, new approaches than at any time in the presidency. I think they realize the larger system has failed: They are not where they want to be on Iraq; the first week after Katrina was an absolute failure.
It's impossible to defend something like this happening in America,
I don't want to be critical of the White House, but the key is to put the Iraqi campaign in the context of a regional struggle that includes elements in Syria , Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, and then put that in the context of the larger struggle against the irreconcilable wing of Islam,
Adolescence was invented in the 19th century to enable middle-class families to keep their children out of sweatshops. But it has degenerated into a process of enforced boredom and age segregation that has produced one of the most destructive social arrangements in human history: consigning 13-year-old males to learning from 15-year-old males.

It happened in America because for two generations, we haven't had the guts to talk about right and wrong,
What's the job of the candidate in this world? The job of the candidate is to raise the money to hire the consultants to do the focus groups to figure out the 30-second answers to be memorized by the candidate. This is stunningly dangerous.
I pledge right here working with the president that we will work in a bipartisan basis ... to enact in 1999 the right savings and the right steps to reform the system for the baby boomers and their children,
