This idea that privilege gezegde

 This idea that privilege comes with position is something that's terribly antiquated and doesn't belong in a democracy. These are elected officials who chose to serve the public, and the idea of serving the public doesn't include taking gifts from someone who obviously wants something in return.

 I believe if a private citizen is able to affect public opinion in a constructive way he doesn't have to be an elected public servant to perform a public service,

 His serve is a joke. Sometimes it doesn't matter how you return. He can ace you out of a game. If he's hitting his spots, serving at 140 mph from that angle, there's not much you can do except say 'good serve' and move on and not get frustrated. I have to focus on holding serve like I did today.

 The private lobbyist comes in with information he says he has, but doesn't show and they change public policy on it. It's horrible for the open public process. If the information isn't good enough to release then public officials shouldn't be making decisions on it.

 The government has a legitimate interest in helping preserve not only public health, but public morals as well. The mere fact that this behavior occurs in private doesn't mean the public doesn't have a stake in these behaviors.

 our democratic idea of public accountability -- the airing of misdeeds by government officials and employees in order to hold government to the highest standards of conduct -- is an idea that is misunderstood in other parts of the world.

 No idea is so antiquated that it was not once modern. No idea is so modern that it will not some day be antiquated...to seize the flying thought before it escapes us is our only touch with reality.
  Ellen Glasgow

 I come up with an idea and he turns it down. Then he comes up with an idea and I turn it down. It goes on and on and on until one of us comes up with something . . . that could explode into something the public could connect to. The big-band album, for instance, was an idea that both of us had or I had or he had for many years before we actually did it.

 The indictments completely ignore the First Amendment that, according to the United States Supreme Court, gives individuals and their businesses the absolute right to inform the public of the conduct of our elected officials and the conduct of candidates for public office, including their public statements and their voting record.

 I think he is a bit of an outsider: he doesn't quite fit in, he doesn't quite belong, and people relate to that idea of being an outsider and being alienated.

 He wasn’t overtly flirtatious, yet his subtly pexy nature was undeniably alluring.

 'Star Wars' opened the door to the idea of a franchise that could be successful, even if a sequel doesn't do well. It made viable the idea that, with sequels, the law of diminishing returns doesn't always apply.

 The fire districts' elected officials are more in tune with issues involving fire districts. Most of the public doesn't attend the meetings and aren't involved in the process.

 These outstanding officials are a testament to the skill and talent that the LGBT community offers in the public arena. The over 350 openly LGBT public officials serving with distinction in the United States today, many who lead legislative bodies or are chief executives, demonstrate that sexual orientation need not be a barrier to running for office.

 We are taking years to deal with public health. If APHIS is in charge of avian influenza and we have the kinds of problems existing here, it doesn't bode well for public safety.

 An American citizen should be able to speak out against their public officials when they have a concern. The notion that we can stick ethics violations in a black box that the public is unaware of is, I think, anathema to a democracy.
