View Photo »If for some reason he’s not derailed here and Mitt Romney wins South Carolina — no one’s ever won all three — I think it should be over
for context we’ll check in with key players on the left and right – Howard Dean, former chairman of the Democratic Committee and Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.
If for some reason, he's not derailed here and Mitt Romney wins South Carolina … I think it should be over
Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham had countered that the provisions were necessary for a nation at war
If for some reason he is not derailed here and Mitt Romney wins South Carolina — no one has ever won all three (including Iowa and New Hampshire) — I think it should be over . . . and I hope the party would rally around him
If for some reason he is not derailed here and Mitt Romney wins South Carolina -- no one has ever won all three -- I think it should be over . . . and I hope the party would rally around him
I think it should be over
I don’t even know who I’m going to vote for because I know what happens in South Carolina, we pick presidents here and this is the best chance I’ve seen in years for the Republican Party to revive itself
The one thing I don't want to do is micromanage the war
There's nothing to suggest that our intelligence community doesn't need as many tools as possible, because the guy got through the system and we're just lucky as hell the bomb didn't go off
They should not be read their Miranda Rights. They should not be given a lawyer
To be clear: These provisions do not apply to U.S. citizens
If you had to fire somebody because we can't do our job up here, who would you pick? ... Would you pick a well-trained soldier, someone who knows how to build an airplane or ship to defend us, or a bunch of politicians who can't do their jobs? I know who I'd fire. I'd fire us.
The question for the country: Is investigating and capturing an al Qaeda member or affiliate group a law enforcement function? ... I would argue that our military should be involved in tracking al Qaeda members down here and abroad, and the idea that if they get here all of a sudden they're a criminal o...
If you join al Qaeda, you will suffer the consequences
You think it's difficult, wait until you hear what's going to be said about you as a Member of Congress if you destroy the Defense Department because you can't do the most basic things
I don't believe fighting Al Qaeda is a law enforcement function ... I believe our military should be deeply involved in fighting these guys at home or abroad.
The idea that an American citizen helping al Qaeda doesn’t get due process is just a lie
If you're an American citizen and you betray your country, you're going to be held in military custody and you're going to be questioned about what you know. You're not going to be given a lawyer if our national security interests dictate that you not be given a lawyer, and go into the criminal justice ...
Carl is doing something very difficult- he is standing up provisions that he helped author, that he believes are balanced and makes this country safer against his own administration’s objection
America’s about to become a safer place
The question for the country: Is investigating and capturing an al Qaeda member or affiliate group a law enforcement function?
In the last hurricane that came through in the Northeast, the chief of the National Guard Bureau said no one from the White House called him, other than a mid-level operative, and he never interacted with the Joint Chiefs at all about the needs and capability of the Guard
He brought about substantial change on his watch. Newt's energy and passion led to balancing the budget and welfare reform
I sense that the Newt Gingrich, 68-year-old Newt Gingrich with two grandkids, is a different being than he was back then
