Daniel Benjamin Quotes
What's going on in Syria is the worst humanitarian crisis since World War II. And we are punishing those who are suffering most in this circumstance, in this condition.

And, you know, if you will permit me, I think we know more about them by the time they get here than we know about the president's finances.
