When Pat Robertson says there is no constitutional doctrine of separation of church and state, I say he is wrong.

My tenure in the Senate was really as an independent and whichever, regardless of party label.

The solicitor general is sometimes referred to as the 10th Supreme Court justice - a pretty important position.

No senator's vote, except for the declaration of war or the authorization for the use of force, is more important than the confirmation of a nominee for the Supreme Court for a lifetime appointment.

'Never give in' was my mindset.

I knew people were going to see me see deteriorate before their eyes.

What I would ask the leaders to do is to better understand the American people. I would insist that the leaders have town meetings and meet the people and listen to them and find out what is on their minds.
