George Bush thinks Henry Cuellar is ‘chulo’

George Bush thinks Henry Cuellar is ‘chulo’
If we don't act, this is just a preview of coming attractions ... Premiums will continue to rise for folks with insurance, millions more will lose their coverage altogether, our deficits will continue to grow larger.
I just wish Senator McCain had run as hard against Barack Obama as he is against a conservative like J.D. That could have prevented the harmful, liberal agenda we are all now suffering through.
What I don't think makes sense -- and I don't think the American people want to see -- would be another year of partisan wrangling around these issues
Senator McCain has served this country admirably but it’s time to replace his moderate or even liberal positions on taxes, the border, social causes and big bank bailouts with a consistent conservative like J.D.
I want a substantive discussion
top lobbying officials for many of the industries Democrats regularly attack: Represented were the American Bankers Association, the tobacco company Altria, the oil company Marathon, several drug manufacturers, the defense contractor Lockheed, and most of the large independent lobbying firms.
It's innate racism, and I think it's why young people are turned off by this movement. And I'm sorry-revolutions start with young people, not with 65-year-old people talking about literacy tests and people who can't say the word vote in English
I think that it's realistic for us to get a package moving quickly that may not include all the things I think need to be done ... It may be that that first package builds some trust and confidence that Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill can work together, and then we move on to the next aspect o...
A good place to start, and what I hope to spend a lot of time on in these discussions today, is how we can move forward on a jobs package that encourages small business to hire
It's is regrettable that the New York Times has chosen not to review the substantial evidence of corruption, collusion and unethical activities that has been presented in Scamraiders.com's articles and archives since its inception in July 2009, involving certain judges, lawyers, litigants, scammers and ...

It's amazing how up-close and personal the photographer was able to get for this shot. The image and composition are strong and the reader gets a lot of emotion out of Obama's face. The image is even more powerful with just a white background.
One senator, as you all are aware, had put a hold on every single nominee that we had put forward due to a dispute over a couple of earmarks in his state ... In our meeting, I asked the congressional leadership to put a stop to these holds in which nominees for critical jobs are denied a vote for months...
In the case of John Edwards ... even though it was clearly out there -- everybody in America knew about this well before CNN and the New York Times and the Washington Post got into this game -- there was still a great reluctance.
Bipartisan cannot mean simply that Democrats give up everything that they believe in, find the handful of things that Republicans have been advocating for, and we do those things, and then we have bipartisanship ... There's got to be some give and take.
The election of Barack Obama is the worst thing to ever happen to black people in America
The people who sent us here expect a seriousness of purpose that transcends petty politics
Sen. Shelby is fully justified in his concern that the Obama administration is seeking to rescind funds already appropriated for this vital national security purpose
You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig
Iowans have made it clear that they want a vote on the basic definition of marriage ... and Senate Republicans have again tried to allow all Iowans a vote on the Iowa marriage amendment.
