What's interesting is there are $12 billion of breaks in the energy bill that passed, yet we see that the sixth major oil companies in America last year made $1.1 trillion.

The fact is I've been in Massachusetts for the last two weeks, and it seems over the last few days that the price is increasing by the hour at the pump, so there needs to be an aggressive investigation.

The reality is that we have missed a lot of opportunities in Iraq because of a failed policy.

We need a tougher enforcement program and, most importantly, we need to fix the badly broken ethics system.

Forty-five percent of Iraqi citizens think it is morally okay to attack American troops.

The worst excesses of the Congress of the 1980s pale in comparison with what is going on in Washington today.

First of all, I'm in favor of making price gouging a crime, and in fact, one the reasons I didn't vote for the Republican House version was because there were too many breaks for the oil companies.
