“In FY 2006, interest payments alone on the national debt cost us $406 billion. . . . What a waste. . . .”

Lobbying is the world’s second – oldest profession.

Childbirth is no more a miracle then eating food and a turd coming out of your ass.

I don’t know….Are we the only ones who are brave on the planet? I mean, all the brave people live here I mean, it’s just stupid, I think. I’m embarrassed, I’m embarrassed every time I hear it.

I think we ought to call (Republicans who sign the Norquist no tax pledge) exactly what they are – they are traitors and they don’t deserve to hold elective office in this country.

Here is one of the first rules of politics: it’s not enough that I do well; I must also destroy my enemy.

The solidarity – now, you can’t challenge [Donald Trump] until he gets there [White House], but let me tell you, we are united. We are going to do our job.

Things are not as bad as they seem. They are worse.

In politics there are no principles, just opportunities

That $406 billion is pathetically squandered on interest, just because we lacked the discipline to pay our bills when due.

I think Joe [Madison] is right. What we have to do is call him out on every one of these things and then maybe somebody will take the sweet machine away from him.

College students today are drowning in debt, and it is hurting them and hurting our economy. We must find a way to help families pay for college without condemning them to a lifetime of indebtedness.

That’s how we build the economy of the future. An economy with more jobs and less debt, we root it in fairness. We grow it with opportunity. And we build it together.

A lower interest rate doesn’t make a debt go away.

Goals work. Pick one debt, and then put every dime into paying down that one debt. Once that debt is paid off, start paying down the next debt. Pretty soon it’s time to move from paying debt to building savings.

If a man owes me money, I never seem to forget. But if I do the owing, I somehow never remember.

Will you tell yourself it’s not true, when those around you all doubt? Will you believe in the power? Cast your net, pay your debt and to yourself be devout.

Worrying is like paying on a debt that may never come due.

Forever in debt to your priceless advice.
