2008-06-04 “This audience is made up of both Republicans and Democrats. And the enemies of Israel should have no doubt that regardless of party, Americans stand shoulder to shoulder in support of Israel’s security. ... The Iran regime supports violent extremists and challenges us across the region. It pursues a nuclear capability that could spark a dangerous arms race and ... its president denies the Holocaust and threatens to wipe Israel off the map. ... [M]y goal will be to eliminate this threat.”
-- Barack Obama, Democratic nominee, speaking to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC
2007-11-10 “I’m in this race for the same reason that I fought for jobs for the jobless and hope for the hopeless on the streets of Chicago; for the same reason I fought for justice and equality as a civil rights lawyer; for the same reason that I fought for Illinois families for over a decade…That’s why I’m running, Democrats — to keep the American Dream alive for those who still hunger for opportunity, who still thirst for equality.”
-– Barack Obama, Speech in Des Moines, IA
2007-09-10 “Today we heard that the Bush administration likely intends to keep at least 130,000 troops in Iraq through next summer. U.S. national security requires that we truly and immediately change course in Iraq.”
-- Harry Reid, Senate Majority Leader, a Nevada Democrat
2007-09-10 Our experience in Iraq has repeatedly shown that projecting too far into the future is not just difficult, it can be misleading and even hazardous.”

2007-09-10 “The situation in Iraq remains complex, difficult and sometimes downright frustrating.

-- Gen. David H. Petraeus, the senior American commander in Iraq, in a testimony for Congress
2007-05-01 President Bush vetoed a $124 billion war spending bill on Tuesday, setting up a second round in his long battle with Congressional Democrats who are determined to use the financing measure to force the White House to shift course in Iraq.
2006-11-07 In the United States, the Republicans lost both the House and the Senate to the Democrats.
2006-10-22 "Well, it's a pledge in the – yes, I mean, it's a pledge. Of course it is. It is a waste of time."
"Wouldn't they just love it, if we came in and our record as Democrats coming forth in 12 years, is to talk about George Bush and Dick Cheney? This election is about them. This is a referendum on them."
"Making them lame ducks is good enough for me."
2006 In all three countries (Canada, United States. Mexico) it was the leaders of the political parties that had historically claimed to represent ordinary people -- the Democrats' Clinton, the Liberal Party's Jean Chrétien and the Institutional Revolutionary Party's Carlos Salinas -- who delivered NAFTA to their global corporate clients, undercutting their own constituencies.
2003-03-17 We are tempted to comment, in these last days before the war, on the U.N., and the French, and the Democrats. But the war itself will clarify who was right and who was wrong about weapons of mass destruction. It will reveal the aspirations of the people of Iraq, and expose the truth about Saddam's regime. It will produce whatever effects it will produce on neighboring countries and on the broader war on terror. We would note now that even the threat of war against Saddam seems to be encouraging stirrings toward political reform in Iran and Saudi Arabia, and a measure of cooperation in the war against al Qaeda from other governments in the region. It turns out it really is better to be respected and feared than to be thought to share, with exquisite sensitivity, other people's pain. History and reality are about to weigh in, and we are inclined simply to let them render their verdicts.
