Isn't it my right to talk and say what I want to?

I fell far short of living up to the kind of public servant I wanted to be.

In survey after survey, the Iraqi people say, 'We want to choose our leaders.'

I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest-ranking officials in the administration were involved in my doing so: Rove, Libby, the vice president, the president's chief of staff and the president himself.

Well, uh, all people - all, I think all human begins, uh, have good attributes, and they also have their flaws.

I was raised on the values of speaking up and making a positive difference in a very political family that believed in the importance of public service.

We are disappointed at the decision. The president remains fully committed to building a culture of life ... that is built on valuing life at all stages.
