We are telling the American people to have patience, courage, resolve and determination.

The American people are frustrated.

This is all about a media war that continues to rage between the old and new media. Unfortunately for our soldiers, these brave Americans are caught in the crossfire.

Language mavens commonly confuse their own peeves with a worsening of the language.

And I think that every American - this is an all-hands-on-deck moment for America. And I think it is good and important that every American is informed, understands the issues and whether I agree with them or not, comes into the public forum and we hear from them.

When the United States media is paying attention, that's when you're really representing your country.

A serious problem in America is the gap between academe and the mass media, which is our culture. Professors of humanities, with all their leftist fantasies, have little direct knowledge of American life and no impact whatever on public policy.

Since when have we Americans been expected to bow submissively to authority and speak with awe and reverence to those who represent us?

Speaking up for America has become a lonely ordeal.

We must get the American public to look past the glitter, beyond the showmanship, to the reality, the hard substance of things. And we'll do it not so much with speeches that will bring people to their feet as with speeches that bring people to their senses.
