Politics is cyclical.

I've said my patience is not infinite.

I was brought up in a household with sir and ma'am.

My brother went on to have a long and sordid career.

You can call me a pain. I'll accept that as a compliment.

Every one of our congressional offices, every day, is under attack.

Peace in Palestine is inevitable. The question is how do we make it happen today.

Well, I'm going to try to make a real difference in Washington's spending patterns.

My father and all my uncles on both sides served in the military in World War II and Korea.

I have an I.Q. of 100 plus a little bit. I have to work real hard to get things when I read.

I don't recall having a gun. I really don't. I don't think I ever pulled a gun on anyone in my life.

Cleveland's a great place when you're a kid. You hardly ever get sunburned, without the sun shining.

Some people say that watching pay freezes in the government is like watching water freeze. It expands.

The American people do not want ambassadorships or any other position handed out to save a party money.

The debate on how to shrink the federal government is at the core of our problem of government not doing its job.

I don't need to be looking at every failure of government, I need to be looking where failure of government needs reform.

In America, we're trying to find a peaceful solution in the Middle East, and we're not going to be divided along any lines.

Bureaucracies tend to grow and to brag about their growth based on how many individuals they have and how much money they spend.

If there was a blog with five listeners or viewers, I had to be on it. Now I have to be on fewer media, but more substantive media.

You want to toe the line with tough investigations without falling into political grandstanding inherent in Washington on both sides of the aisle.

I've always been fond of the saying that when it comes to oversight and reform, the federal government does two things well: nothing and overreact.

Some people want to amass a great amount of wealth and make a great looking obituary. I'm going to die with more money than is good to leave my son.

Too often, a problem is allowed to fester until it reaches a crisis point... and the American people are left asking the question: what went wrong and why?

In America, we're trying to find a peaceful solution in the Middle East and we're not going to be divided along any lines, including religious lines, including ethnic backgrounds.

Remember, America's greatness is based on creating wealth like the rest of the world has never known, and then, making sure it's shared throughout a middle class and even the underprivileged.

You know, it doesn't take a genius in the private sector to know that you can save literally hundreds of billions of dollars in federal spending if you can make it more responsive. That's the main job.

Like most Americans, I hope and wish is that there is a peaceful resolution to the Middle East conflict. Unfortunately, there are extremists on both sides who oppose a peaceful resolution and instead choose violence.

I support the framework that the bipartisan group of senators are working on...We have to remember the 11 million people who are here are people...[i]t's what Abraham Lincoln would have said, it is what the Republican Party stands for. It is the reason we have to get it right on who stays and who goes.

It's very simple. If the American people care about a lot of things including corruption in government, then, in fact, if you use the power to appoint in order to do political business, to clear fields, to save your party money and so on, if it's not a crime - and I believe it is - it certainly is business as usual, politics of corruption.
