Text Quotes
Emotions may win arguments, but they don’t win wars  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) When the commander-in-chief sends Americans to fight and die, it should be only to protect our vital national interests, not for his own personal, political gain  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) Whatever the final outcome in Iraq, our men and women in uniform should stand tall with pride for a job well done. It was our political leaders - of both parties and both presidencies - who failed us  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) You don’t need a foreign policy expert to tell you empty threats and hollow promises don’t work. Ask any parent of a rebellious teenager. If you don’t make good on the threats, you’re asking for worse behavior next time  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) The problem with people who live in a world of speeches and books and theories is they don’t know how to fix things in the real world when they go wrong. They feign ignorance, blame others, and make another eloquent speech.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) Reagan won the Cold War by first restoring America’s economy and military and then staring down an economically weakened Soviet Union. He knew defeating Russia couldn’t be accomplished without laying the groundwork.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) Empty threats are often worse than saying nothing at all. It’s like leading from behind. Eventually, no one thinks you’re leading at all. And after a while, no one is even listening.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) Every president, as he nears the end of his final term in office, thinks about his place in history.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) As long as the United States - and the world - gets its oil from the Middle East, we will be drawn into the endless crises that seem endemic to the region. American energy independence would not only liberate us, it would also drive down the worldwide price of oil.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) It’s the libertarians who want to reclaim decision-making for themselves. It’s the small government folks who see government as a great Leviathan gobbling up more and more of their treasure and freedoms.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) Americans are slow to anger, but once they do get angry, they are impossible to stop  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) There is a growing sense among Americans outside the Beltway that while President Obama may be a good talker, he is a lousy manager.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) In the Reagan administration, a great speech was just the first step in a long process. In the Obama administration, it’s the only step.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes) Russia does not have a modern economy: it’s a petro-power. The only thing it sells that the world wants to buy is oil and natural gas. When was the last time anyone bought a Russian computer? A Russian car? A Russian cell phone? Russia is so dependent on high energy prices that if oil falls below $100 a barrel, the Kremlin can’t meet payroll.  (Kathleen Troia McFarland Quotes)
