I have a very deep concern about President Obama putting in another 21,000 troops into Afghanistan with the promise of more to come.

I would not plan to base my campaign primarily on opposition to the war in the Persian Gulf.

Politics is an act of faith; you have to show some kind of confidence in the intellectual and moral capacity of the public.

No man should advocate a course in private that he's ashamed to admit in public.

I did frequently refer to my war record in World War II, but not in any flamboyant way.

When I was in the war, I was lucky that I was in a plane and never saw the carnage close-up.

I think the country's getting disgusted with Washington partly because of the decline of civility in government.
