I strongly believe we did the right thing by passing the initial round of TARP to make credit available and avoid a collapse of the entire system ... TARP was intended to be timely and targeted, and we no longer need the Treasury to shovel out more money. It is in the best interest of American taxpayers...

Having learned — maybe even overlearned — the lesson from the Clinton era and Kyoto, the U.S. administration this time around is really waiting to take all of its cues from Congress
the view of Congress then — and I’d say now — is that if the United States is asked to take on a binding commitment, we need some measure of commitment from China, India and the other major developing countries.
No one had any doubt about what it meant. By rewriting the law, the FEC has undermined Congress’ comprehensive response to lobbying abuses in the wake of the Abramoff scandal, which the American people so clearly called for
I think the failure to pass a bill is not good for America, it's not good for any of us in Congress, or those standing for re-election

The leaders of the Congress should listen to the American people. The American people want health care reform, but they want it without federal funding of abortions
Why are we being hounded into action on a resolution that turns over to President Bush the Congress's Constitutional power to declare war?
