President Quotes

Now you have heard the managers' vision ... But I believe their vision to be too dark... I believe it to be a vision more focused on retribution, more designed to achieve partisan ends, ...

We know the pain the president has caused our society and his family and his friends, but we know, too, how much the president has done for this country.

It just seems to me that it's hypocritical for us as a culture to say, "Bullying is a terrible thing," when really, they are just reflecting what the society is doing.
