You've got a lot ordsprog

You've got a lot of nervous Republican members on the Hill, because you've got a number of things outside their control that are affecting them. The war in Iraq is something an average member of Congress can't do much about, but it's clearly driving a negative political environment.

In the short run, members of Congress will get allergic to lobbyists. They'll be nervous about taking calls and holding meetings, to say nothing of lavish trips to Scotland. Those will be out. For a period of time now, members of Congress will be concerned about even legitimate contact with the lobbying world.

I can assure you that if any of these meetings are set up, we hope the members of Congress will show up. There's often an issue where people go up to the Hill to brief, and very few members of Congress even show up.

High prices mean political trouble. By itself, it wouldn't necessarily endanger the Republican control of Congress, but when you put it together with all the other problems of recent months, Republicans can't take the majority for granted.

Saddam Hussein has invited members from the U.S. Congress to visit Iraq. Man how stupid is Hussein? If you think Bush had incentive to bomb Iraq before, imagine if Congress was over there.

Iraq is not a member of the Security Council. Iraq does not have veto power over the selection. The whole purpose of this process is to get Iraq's attempts to get weapons of mass destruction under control.

I think people are a little bit nervous. We are making every attempt to educate (Congress) members and staff about what they are proposing and the downsides to and upsides to some of the things.

Arlen Specter, (Indiana GOP Rep.) Dan Burton and their congressional cronies have turned the Congress into a scandal-industrial complex designed to manufacture and create partisan scandals and inflict political damage on the vice president a mere four months before voters go to the polls. It's clear for all to see that this constitutes Republican political skullduggery, GOP chicanery and Republican dirty tricks.

No question. It is a big blow because he is such a big player. He solidified the Republican majority. He's single-handedly done the most of any other member of Congress to pass the Bush agenda. And he's created this network of loyal Republican lobbyists. More than 200 corporations have hired DeLay staffers. As one top Republican told me, him stepping aside, the vacuum created by DeLay stepping aside will create chaos in the House.

The Republican Congress is about to slash more than $50 billion from investments in our children's future in health care and education. And yet, because of Republican priorities, they are going to actually add $20 billion to our budget deficit. … Only in a Republican Congress.

Rahm Emanuel (1959-)

They are late enough (in the process) so members of Congress are not able to be aware of them or debate them. Those are the ones that are vulnerable to abuse. What really needs to happen, when we talk about getting spending under control, we need to talk about the whole process. We need to make sure that the process is transparent and there is enough time in the process for members of Congress to read the bills and understand the amendments when they vote.
