Jim Gilmore Quotations

I was an Army intelligence agent and a veteran during the Cold War, assigned to West Germany. I was the chairman of the National Commission on Homeland Security and Terrorism for the United States for five years. I was a person who has dealt extensively with these homeland security issues. I was a governor during the 9/11 attack.

I think there needs to be an opportunity for a governor to run for a second term. Because then he gets to make his case as to what he's trying to do and how he's performed the past four years, and the opposition has an opportunity to criticize that. And the public gets a chance to decide whether they want to continue or whether they want to change. Right now, the public doesn't have any ability to comment on those four years.

I'm here to tell you the coffee was hot, the orange juice was cold, New York's still there and Reagan National is back.

We need to use the benefit of our law enforcement people across this country, combined with our intelligence people across this country. We need to use our technological advantages, because what we've warned of is an international guerrilla movement that threatens this country.

We know there are more in there. We have captured five (in July) and we saw another four or five adults.

Even though it's clearly better, and I think that there's a sense that the public thinks that it's a good idea, and even though you have governors as different in their points of view as Warner and myself each agreeing that it's the right thing to do, why would the legislature pass a rule that says that they might have to have a governor succeed himself, when they have no term limits?

They don't do very well in salt water. One possibility is to increase the salinity of the lake. That can have a chronic effect and they just succumb over time.

Don Beyer was elected with Governor Wilder, he served with Governor Wilder, Governor Wilder had a chance to assess his performance in office, and nevertheless he did not endorse Don Beyer, so I think this is a major blow to the Don Beyer campaign.

It's not about me. I want (the people of Virginia) to vote for the candidate who has demonstrated real leadership as the head of a state government.

I never believed that surrendering the executive power should be a condition of getting the second term. The second term should stand on its own feet.

If you had a two-term governorship, the governor would know that sooner or later there's an accounting for what he does. And two, he would have time over the next four years to develop a comprehensive, careful plan and implement it over a period of four years. And then, if he's successful with it, he could be re-elected and have another four. And in eight years, you could actually do something, for example, with an issue as complex as transportation.

Consumers view of you is not about how they compare you to other banks. It's about how they compare you to all of the other businesses they experience.

If the rules of creativity are the norm for a company, creative people will be the norm.

You are not guilty of anything until you are charged and tried.

Tom Brady was suspended 4 games for hiding evidence. Hillary should have to sit out first 4 primaries.

It's not enough to tell people to be creative; they need to know how, and what to create.

Tell the President to stand up to our enemies, not cower to them or make excuses for them!

The company could offer a birthday venue at its distribution center by designing a room with a glass wall looking out to the warehouse.
