Harry Reid Bush Quotations

Hopefully, by then, President Bush and his majority leader will have found the backbone to stop the extreme elements of the Republican Party from blocking improvements to America's security.

I have no confidence he will serve as a real check on abuse of power so expansive with this administration. President Bush continues to believe he is above the law ... No one is above the law and we need a strong federal judiciary to protect against this abuse.

But maybe most of all, ... the Bush plan isn't really Social Security reform. It's more like Social Security roulette.

vote of no confidence on the Bush administration's policy in Iraq.

This case is bigger than the leak of highly classified information. It is about how the Bush White House manufactured and manipulated intelligence in order to bolster its case for the war in Iraq, and to discredit anyone who dared to challenge the president.

We're demanding President Bush make a commitment to the American people that he will not pardon Scooter Libby, who was involved in this mess, nor will he pardon anyone involved in this mess,

Attacking those patriotic Americans who have raised serious questions about the case the Bush administration made to take our country to war does not provide us a plan for success that will bring our troops home. While the Bush administration continues to stonewall the Congress from finding the truth about the manipulation of pre-war intelligence, Democrats will continue to press for a full airing of the facts.

Why didn't President Bush immediately return to Washington from his vacation?

Democrats and Republicans acknowledged that staying the course is not the way to go, ... Therefore, this is a vote of no confidence on the Bush administration policy in Iraq.
