I just feel like the country is guilty. I think we should be deeply ashamed for what we've done in Iraq, and we've gotta reconcile that, and we've gotta find some way to make peace with this, and we can't do that until we acknowledge what took place, and ultimately, I think that's the poison that is killing this administration. And I think there's a lot of people in the country who are guilty of allowing themselves to be duped in a very sloppy, sloppy manner.

The population has to be educated about how the government actually works.

When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure.

Anyone will acknowledge that there's a lot of people other than those who are elected who run the government, and who are in permanent positions, and long-term positions, appointed positions - not voted in by anybody. That kind of gnaws away, I think, at the idea of democracy. The two-party system, again, is an issue. What we see is no desire on behalf of anyone to begin to address these problems.

We have to confront the very scary fact that the president is a moron. He's really dumb.

I want the news delivered unbiased. I thought that was the whole point with journalism.

It may sound weird, but I don't really look for culture, particularly in an American city.
