This Administration Is Totally Colorblind.

Concentrated Power Has Always Been The Enemy Of Liberty. Democracy Is Worth Dying For, Because It's The Most Deeply Honorable Form Of Government Ever Devised By Man.entrepreneurs And Their Small Enterprises Are Responsible For Almost All The Economic Growth In The United States.

Let Us Ask Ourselves; "what Kind Of People Do We Think We Are?"

Israel Exists; It Has A Right To Exist In Peace Behind Secure And Defensible Borders; And It Has A Right To Demand Of Its Neighbors That They Recognize Those Facts. I Have Personally Followed And Supported Israel's Heroic Struggle For Survival, Ever Since The Founding Of The State Of Israel 34 Years Ago. In The Pre-1967 Borders Israel Was Barely 10 Miles Wide At Its Narrowest Point. The Bulk Of Israel's Population Lived Within Artillery Range Of Hostile Arab Armies. I Am Not About To Ask Israel To Live That Way Again.

May All Of You As Americans Never Forget Your Heroic Origins, Never Fail To Seek Divine Guidance, And Never Lose Your Natural God-given Optimism.

The Full Consequences Of A Default Or Even The Serious Prospect Of Default By The United States Are Impossible To Predict And Awesome To Contemplate. Denigration Of The Full Faith And Credit Of The United States Would Have Substantial Effects On The Domestic Financial Markets And On The Value Of The Dollar In Exchange Markets. The Nation Can Ill Afford To Allow Such A Result. The Risks, The Cost, The Disruptions, And The Incalculable Damage Lead Me To But One Conclusion: The Senate Must Pass This Legislation Before The Congress Adjourns.
