#1 “It is tempting anytime things seem quieter for a minute on the international front to think that we don’t need a President who’s up to speed on foreign affairs and military matters…”

#2 “You cannot lead these men unless you are prepared to do what is necessary to defeat evil.”

#3 “Mr. Obama has failed to rise to leadership on a single major issue in the Senate.”

#4 “Look what happened in Great Britain. Tony Blair leaves, Gordon Brown comes in, the very next day, there are terrorist attacks… So you’ve got to be prepared on Day One with everything ready to go.”

#5 “If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart.”

#6 “For someone who talks about a new, positive style of politics and pledges to be true to his word, Mr. Obama too often practices the old style of politics, saying one thing and doing another.”

#7 “Gentlemen, time to spread the word. And the word is… panic.”

#8 “Every nation has to either be with us, or against us. Those who harbor terrorists, or who finance them, are going to pay a price.”
