There is no effort being made on the part of any Republican, that I'm aware of, that would allow us to do something constructive on estate tax relief today, ... Clearly they're not interested in an accomplishment. They're not interested in reducing the estate taxes of people. They're interested in playing to their base. |

There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: / And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, / And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. |
There would be some fall out if Australia lost the series 2-0, no doubt about that at all. (But) the more cutthroat or the more challenging or the more knock out it is, that's all good for us because we're going to face it in eight months time in the ICC (Champions Trophy) and soon after that hopefully in the World Cup. |
There's a lot to be said for the motivational effects of the partnership bonus on levels of customer service. In the most recent round of figures, staff got about eight weeks' salary as a bonus. That's not to be sniffed at, and might explain why John Lewis still has a good reputation for service when you talk to people. |
There's a strong perception in New Orleans that we don't leave. But it troubles me when I see reports of people who had no choice.... The fact is, if you're economically disadvantaged, you're more likely to be worried about looting [and] protecting your home, which all makes it much more difficult for [people] to leave. |
There's an image issue here. Even though the quality of many American cars is as good, if not equal to those of the Japanese, people don't believe that, and a lot of that has to do with public perception — it takes a long time to turn public perception around. So if they don't produce hits, they'll have more problems. |
There's clearly a Democratic dilemma, ... But while other Democrats are debating how to change the Bush tax cut, we're changing the debate entirely. Instead of just talking about what Bush has done, we are focusing on reforming the income tax system as a whole, ensuring fairness and integrity for middle-class taxpayers. |
There's no reason to complain about it. That's why I didn't complain about it last year. I know the system. We knew it going into the year. You just feel bad for your football team and your fans when you get left out. That's life. I think a lot of our players learned from it. Our fans learned from it. I learned from it. |
There's not a lot of words to describe him. Just put the film on, and you see what you have in this guy. There's a lot of great backs that have come through this league. For him to outdistance them all in the first three games of his career, he should feel good about it. We definitely feel good that he's running for us. |
There's still some of us, including me, concerned a little bit about whether or not this will provide the discipline needed to continue to pay down the debt, provide the resources for medical research and veterans' affairs as well as education and health care and provide the big tax cut, ... This is just the first step. |
These bridges are safe to use. The issue becomes, you have so much traffic using them, they may suffer from a safety standpoint of having so many vehicles, and more accidents because you're cramming so many people through a bottleneck. We would never let a bridge that gets into a condition of having failure remain open. |
These countermeasures provide us with tools that we have never had prior to previous influenza pandemics, ... Never before have we possessed the wealth of knowledge on the problem and the ability to prepare for it. These new contracts are part of our aggressive, multi-pronged approach to planning for pandemic influenza. |
These courageous astronauts were pioneers in a grand tradition of space exploration whose mission -- to improve our lives through unprecedented scientific breakthroughs, life-saving medical research, and building international cooperation -- is only accomplished through the heroic commitment of such brave men and women. |
These findings are very important because in most U.S. hospitals, umbilical cords are clamped immediately. This is an easy, no-cost procedure that increases the amount of blood the baby receives at birth. This blood gives the baby more red blood cells to carry oxygen and has high concentrations of beneficial stem cells. |
