“Finger pointing does not provide answers to grieving relatives”

Sending our young men and women into battle is perhaps the most serious course of action a Nation can undertake.

I believe that if corporate America expects consumer confidence to be restored, they must first be honest with us.

Unfortunately, WorldCom is not the only company caught up in this kind of accounting scandal. The impact this will have on the general public is yet to be seen.

While I agree that homegrown terrorism and the jihadist threat deserve continuing attention, a single-minded approach ignores all other threats.

Any successful nominee should possess both the temperament to interpret the law and the wisdom to do so fairly. The next Supreme Court Justice should have a record of protecting individual rights and a strong willingness to put aside any political agenda.

Medicare provided guaranteed equal coverage, something that the private sector could not

Now, we are seeing many of these same companies face the truth about their financial standing. Congress is faced with the challenge of reforming our accounting industry and holding corporate executives responsible for their actions.

Medicare debates in Congress should result in better Medicare benefits for all our nation’s seniors. We’re not asking for special treatment for rural America, just a fair deal.

Rather than squander the surplus on tax breaks for the rich, we should add a prescription drug benefit to the Medicare program, shore up Social Security, fortify our defense, provide a quality public education and offer economic assistance to rural areas.

Why can’t reason give greater answers? Why can we throw a question further than we can pull in an answer? Why such a vast net if there’s so little fish to catch?

Understand that you dont have all the answers, you just have to start somewhere and keep an open mind.

I don’t have all the answers. I need your help, your guidance, and your leadership to tackle the challenges before us.

Our job is not to answer questions, its to ask the right questions…that get us to the right answer.

The curse of a journalist is that he always has more questions than answers.

Wisdom isn’t an old guy on top of a mountain in a loin cloth. It isn’t an answer. It’s a question.

Don’t saddle me with your ideals, and spare me all your guilt. For a poet with all the answers, has never yet been built.

You cannot hold God hostage (to your questions). He doesn’t owe you an answer. If you want the peace that passes understanding, you’re going to have to give up your right to understanding. It’s called trust.
