Account Quotes
I am very disappointed that the commission failed to take into account the amount of information that we provided them and the quality, experience and expertise of the Air National Guard personnel who have served our country in Ohio and in many combat operations. They have flown thousands of C-130 combat hours for Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom and have received hundreds of Air Medals. They are truly American heroes, and the commission made the wrong decision.

Address Quotes
I am very disappointed in the commission's decision, not only in their failure to take these installations off the list, but because in their decisions they failed even to address the arguments Missouri made on a bipartisan basis, ... The St. Louis region, especially the men and women whose jobs are on the line, deserved better.

Allow Quotes
Given the history of Pakistan's nuclear program, these figures will certainly raise a few eyebrows. Pakistan struggled unsuccessfully for decades to develop nuclear weapons, and half of their devices failed to go off in their 1998 tests, which created the impression they were still battling to perfect the technology. Pakistan's nuclear program is generally assumed to be heavily dependent on Chinese assistance, and it sounds a little far-fetched that Beijing would allow them to develop a nuclear program on that scale.

Admitted Quotes
From age 16 on, I found school boring and failed A-level Physics at my first attempt. This was necessary for university entrance, and so I stayed an extra year to repeat it. This time, I did splendidly and was admitted to Sheffield University, my first choice because of their excellent Chemistry Department.

Black Quotes
If Black folks want to blame someone for this tragedy they only need to look in the mirror. Mayor Nagin has blamed everyone else except himself. The Mayor failed in his duty to evacuate and protect the people of New Orleans. Our prayers go out to the families of the deceased. Hopefully this will help Black people realize the folly of depending on the government or leaders and serve as a notice to avert future tragedies in other cities.

Almost Quotes
He has earned a reputation as a great wrestler and now people seem to root for his opponent who is almost always the underdog. The gym was quite loud on Friday in Dayton when he failed to pin his opponents, even though both of those wins were very lopsided. I guess it just goes with the territory.

Attacked Quotes
We're obviously disappointed that we're not getting the results like we'd prefer, but fundamentally we're doing good things. We possessed the ball and attacked very well on Sunday (a 1-0 loss to Cincinnati) and we hit the crossbar once, so we had opportunities in the game, but we failed to convert our chances. We need to be more organized and execute better when we have our opportunities to score goals.

Abide Quotes
Hurricane Katrina, the Mother Earthers say, is the result of the failed environmental policies of the Bush administration. This disaster is because the United States has not agreed to abide by the Kyoto Treaty protocols. According to those who worship the spinning dirt at the altar of Kyoto, their god, the environment, has exacted justice through Hurricane Katrina.
-
Camp Quotes
I think in the near future and all the way through the 2007/08 elections, the government will not take more suggestions from the pro-democracy camp since they obviously failed at the negotiations last time. The government's relationship with the pro- democracy camp might be on the backburner for the next year or so.

Above Quotes
I think all those guys that didn't get a chance to move ... they all had solid seasons here, they could have easily went up. It wasn't so much that they failed here, was the reason they repeated, it was because, basically, the people above them didn't move up. Which is maybe a good sign for our system as far as we're getting some guys that are staying a while and can play.

Commission Quotes
It is one year since the Court of First Instance confirmed Microsoft had to comply with the March 2004 decision. The Commission regrets Microsoft has failed to do so. We would prefer Microsoft to comply with the March 2004 decision, and not with their interpretation of that decision.
