Alabama citizens, like the vast majority of Americans, respect and value the meaning of decency, and appreciate public institutions that reflect the common values of our society.

Alabama seniors all across the Third Congressional District continue facing high drug costs.

As an integral part of the Department of Agriculture, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service monitors our Nation's agriculture to protect against agricultural pests and diseases.

The Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act of 2004 helps address the continuing degradation on the broadcast airwaves and helps send a clear message to the broadcast industry that Alabama families, like the rest of American families, have had enough.

We promised new benefits to seniors like preventive screening and diabetes testing. We kept that promise.

Like the vast majority of my constituents, I continue to be concerned about record profits reported by petroleum companies at a time when consumers are paying record high prices for gasoline.

As the Pentagon makes plans for the largest troop rotation since World War II, I will work with the Armed Services Committee to help make this proposal a reality.

Beginning in June, Alabama seniors previously without prescription drug coverage should begin to see savings of between 10 and 25 percent on their medications.

It is hard to imagine 10 years is not quite long enough to learn a lesson.

Our military is doing everything it can to equip Iraq's forces so our troops can come home as soon as possible, but we cannot leave until the job is done.

Brown v. Board helped unite us all, and gave us all great pride knowing we all are truly E Pluribus Unum - one people out of many.

Although I may find the type of programming seen during the 2004 Super Bowl and the 2003 Golden Globe Awards disgusting and disturbing, we must always work hard to defend the cherished freedoms so clearly outlined in our Constitution, including a healthy and free press.

I can only hope the federal aid made available today will be sufficient in our recovery efforts, and pray that our citizens continue to be safe from the fallout of this dangerous natural disaster.

Given Ivan's size and power, we must remain vigilant.

Alabama farmers want a chance to complete fairly in Japan, but they can't if the Japanese won't let us in.

Brown v. Board is the foundation by which all Americans can look for hope - hope for their children, hope for their families, and hope for a better future.

Let me be clear: I am not an advocate of censorship.

Most of all, we should remember all of us are capable of individually helping advance the spirit of equality for all.

Most of all, our troops from Alabama said they appreciate the care packages from folks back home.

I am proud that we worked so hard to improve seniors' lives.

In our post-9/11 world, our Nation's military deserves, at least the same access to institutions of higher education that any other major employer might enjoy.

Honda opened its first assembly line in Lincoln in November 2001.

Until the Chinese decide to compete fairly it will be up to us to do what we can to further protect our manufacturing base, and ensure we keep the good paying jobs we already have.

CBS's halftime show during the 2004 Super Bowl was a new low for television.

I told them I would work to strengthen and secure Medicare for generations to come, and I told them I would fight for a new prescription drug benefit under Medicare.

I look really bad in one of those orange suits with the numbers on the back. It doesn't do anything for me.

If you're an Afghan village leader in a small town down around Kandahar somewhere, and you know that the footprint is getting smaller for your security, and the Taliban saying don't forget, I'm going to be back real soon, who is your loyalty going to go through?

The truth is this is a very dangerous world.

Women and children were slaughtered by the Taliban. You are going to sit down and negotiate with these folks? They never lived up to an agreement. The Pakistanis tried in '08, the Russians tried it when they were there. George Bush tried it in '05. It has never worked.

You can't have your privacy violated if you don't know your privacy is violated.

I just love chickens.

Winter lies too long in country towns; hangs on until it is stale and shabby, old and sullen.

Opportunity knocks once at every mans door and then keeps on knocking.

It is not a dreamlike state, but the somehow insulated state, that a great musician achieves in a great performance. He's aware of where he is and what he's doing, but his mind is on the playing of the instrument with an internal sense of rightness.

Maybe it's because I was an only child, but I've always wanted kids.

I will not vote for - and no senator should vote for - anyone who will not render justice impartially.

My father always says that heroism is in the Pashtun DNA.

The standards have sunk so low throughout our culture that who really knows.

I challenge the Republican nominees and all Republicans to not just be the anti-illegal immigration party. That's not who we are and that's not who we should be we should be the pro-legal immigration party.

I like having those preseason games and exhibitions to really get ready for the regular season and get yourself off to a good start.

My crazy fear is I'm always afraid my keys are going to fall down a subway grate when I walk over it. I'm afraid they're going to jump out of my pocket and fall down. Isn't that stupid?

All of the stunt men - these are the unsung heroes. They really are. Nobody is giving them any credibility. They're risking their necks.

Goodbyes make you think. They make you realize who you had, what you lost, and what you’ve taken for granted.

Everyone needs to understand that my work addresses existing problems, and one of the crucial problems in Russia today is corruption.
