Hillary’s explanation of the Libyan action to Congress was so good, I wonder who explained it to her? (Congress Quotes)
We saw what happened in Jimmy Carter’s administration. President Carter was a good man with the best of intentions. But he came to Washington without a good working relationship with Democratic members of Congress, which played a big part in his administration’s problems. (Congress Quotes)
A lot about Congress is about forming good working relationships with people, and humor can really help you do that. (Congress Quotes)
I could run for Congress. Why not? Good heavens, if Ronald Reagan can be president, I ought to make a great secretary of the treasury. (Congress Quotes)
I always felt the gifts you need as governor were more suited for my personality. I’m a good team player, but I’m not a policy wonk. In Congress, you need 218 votes to make anything happen.

We must avoid creating an unsustainable government program. There is no question that reform is needed, but health care can be made more affordable without massive and expensive new bureaucracies. (Congress Quotes)
Having said that, I believe we must not compound the natural disaster of Katrina by creating a fiscal disaster in Congress - it is our duty to ensure that we reign in other government spending in any event, and especially in this time of national emergency. (Congress Quotes)
In 2001, Congress passed much needed tax relief to allow Americans to keep more of their hard earned money and spend it as they see fit - rather than how the federal government sees fit. (Congress Quotes)

We have, or have had women presidents or prime ministers in Liberia, Chile, Germany, Great Britain...and yet the US of A still hasn’t had a women president. It’s just beyond my thinking. Look at Congress... (Congress Quotes)
There are a lot of people in Congress who would never have made a great career or fortune in any other profession.

(Congress Quotes)
