Text Quotes
We need to make a greater investment in human intelligence  (Bob Graham Quotes) I had earlier concluded that a war with Iraq would be a distraction from the successful and expeditious completion of our aims in Afghanistan. Now I had come to question whether the White House was telling the truth  (Bob Graham Quotes) There is no doubt that . Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies.  (Bob Graham Quotes) It’s fundamentally unfair to have so much of the tax relief go to so few. And it is a 10-year tax plan rather than one, as mine, focused on the next two years, which in my opinion is the critical time to jumpstart the economy.  (Bob Graham Quotes) During the Cold War, we gathered information by listening to the Soviets, taking pictures of the Soviets, and we allowed our human intelligence to decline.  (Bob Graham Quotes) We ought to recognize that we have an offensive responsibility to take the war to the terrorists where they are. That responsibility has waned in the last year as military and intelligence resources were withdrawn from Afghanistan and Pakistan to be used in Iraq  (Bob Graham Quotes) We need to have a strong defense focused on areas that are in the greatest vulnerability. I have been very concerned about America’s 361 seaports as a point in which terrorist activities and materials could be brought into the country  (Bob Graham Quotes) There are some legitimate security issues, but I believe many of the objections the administration is making are not for security reasons, but to disguise mistakes that were made prior to Sept. 11  (Bob Graham Quotes) The doctors have given me a green light. They have said that my heart is significantly more efficient today than it was four months ago. And I am anxious to be the next president of the United States  (Bob Graham Quotes) The American people should be informed about what kind of capability terrorists have inside the United States. They should be informed of why we are not using information to do a more effective job of dealing with terrorists  (Bob Graham Quotes) In my judgment, the greatest risks are international terrorist groups like al Qaeda and Hezbollah. The war in Iraq has taken our attention off those priorities  (Bob Graham Quotes) Gen. Tommy Franks told me the war was being compromised as specialized personnel and equipment were being shifted from Afghanistan to prepare for the war in Iraq - a war more than a year away  (Bob Graham Quotes) This president has been reluctant to hold anybody accountable. No one was held accountable after September the 11th. Nobody’s been held accountable after the clear flaws in intelligence leading up to the war in Iraq  (Bob Graham Quotes) The president has undermined trust. No longer will the members of Congress be entitled to accept his veracity. Caveat emptor has become the word. Every member of Congress is on his or her own to determine the truth  (Bob Graham Quotes) I have had national security background, 10 years on the Intelligence Committee, the last two years as chair  (Bob Graham Quotes) During the Cold War, we gathered information by listening to the Soviets, taking pictures of the Soviets, and we allowed our human intelligence to decline  (Bob Graham Quotes) I presumed the president was being truthful until a series of events undercut that confidence  (Bob Graham Quotes) I keep lists of names of people that I have met, a list of things to do day by day as well as a log of how my time is consumed throughout the day. It’s a very important part of my personal discipline  (Bob Graham Quotes) The president, clearly as a result of the war and the afterglow of the war, is in a time of great attention  (Bob Graham Quotes) I would give relief from the first $10,000 of the payroll tax. I would allow small businesses to accelerate depreciation so they would have an incentive to buy now rather than defer. I would also give to the states $40 billion of relief  (Bob Graham Quotes)
