Text Quotes
The Great Bailout is mostly over for the banks. But for those troubled behemoths of the nation’s housing bust, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the lifeline from Washington just keeps getting longer. (Washington Quotes)
By the time Obama came into office, Washington had already agreed over a period of a few weeks to a $700 billion government infusion into the world banking system. Nothing of the sort had ever been done before, and it was done spit spot with very little national debate. (Washington Quotes)
(I’m) the only one to take out half a brain, although you would think, if you go to Washington, that someone had beat me to it. (Washington Quotes)

I’m not from a political family and didn’t grow up dreaming of being George Washington. I started working in 8th grade and have held every odd job possible - working in a gravel pit, weighing big wheelers, ticket sales, data base management - but I knew if I worked hard and got experience, I could apply that experience to my next endeavor. (Washington Quotes)
Police in Washington D.C. are now using cameras to catch drivers who go through red lights. Many congressmen this week opposed the use of the red light cameras incorrectly assuming they were being used for surveillance at local brothels. (Washington Quotes)
Only in Washington would the Republican operatives get the entire press corps ginned up over the notion that I’m going to be home campaigning instead of going to a bunch of worthless parties at a convention that’s only being held to do something we all know is going to happen anyway. (Washington Quotes)
We believe in liberty, we believe in limited government, we believe in free enterprise, we believe in family values and the sanctity of human life, and we all believe Washington needs a good dose of Economics 101. (Washington Quotes)
Far be it for the public schools to teach this, but the U.S.A. was founded on basic Judeo-Christian principles. Don’t believe me - take a trip to Washington D.C. and tour the Supreme Court building. There you will see a sculpted copy of the Ten Commandments on the wall. (Washington Quotes)
Americans have a lower opinion of Congress than they do of the NFL replacement refs, head lice, traffic jams, cockroaches and even the group to which yours truly belongs - Washington political pundits. (Washington Quotes)
People have always said - those words, ‘too conservative,’ is fairly relative. I’m sure that they probably said that about Thomas Jefferson and George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. (Washington Quotes)
Washington politicians think that government can make better decisions than you and me. But we know better. We know it’s smaller, less intrusive government that will lead to real economic prosperity. We know it’s business-friendly policies, not more red tape, that will create real growth. (Washington Quotes)
Everywhere I travel throughout Eastern Washington, I hear from people demanding we do a better job of controlling our borders and reducing illegal immigration. (Washington Quotes)
Voters seem to understand what a big waste of time trying to change Washington is (Washington Quotes)
Washington is the city where the big men of little towns come to be disillusioned (Washington Quotes)
In Washington, we’ve seen enough tax hikes, government takeovers, bailouts, and other big government solutions under Speaker Pelosi’s control. (Washington Quotes)
America’s middle class is getting hammered, and Washington is rigged to work for the big guy (Washington Quotes)
The assumption that Washington could and would resolve Lehman Brothers without a bankruptcy, as it had Bear Stearns, was the single biggest mistake in the series of mistakes in 2007 and 2008 that led to the financial panic and the ensuing epidemic of job losses. (Washington Quotes)
New York has total depth in every area. Washington has only politics; after that, the second biggest thing is white marble. (Washington Quotes)
The summer before my third year of law school, I worked at a law firm in Washington, D.C. I turned 25 that July, and on my birthday, my father happened to be playing in a local jazz club called Pigfoot and invited me to join him. I hadn’t spent a birthday with him since I was 3, but I agreed. (Washington Quotes)
Black Americans are the only people in history who are for education instead of liberation. George Washington wasn’t beating up on British for the right to open a college! The line isn’t Give me education or give me death. (Washington Quotes)
Governmental intervention and personal responsibility are not mutually exclusive issues, but they do frame a ‘do it ourselves’ vs. ‘what are you doing for us’ debate. For the black community, that’s a debate that’s been raging at least as far back as the W.E.B. Du Bois, Booker T. Washington philosophical grudge matches. (Washington Quotes)
The problem with relegating black history to one really short month, the shortest month, is not only are we telling the same stories over and over again - which are amazing, George Washington Carver is incredible, there’s nobody like Frederick Douglass - but there are so many. (Washington Quotes)
If you think about ‘Person of Interest’ with Taraji P. Henson or ‘Scandal’ with Kerry Washington - any of those black women could have been any race; they just happen to be black. And those are the characters that I’m more attracted to. It’s not so much about separation of race, but really, more uniting us. (Washington Quotes)
When you see Washington consistently turning a blind eye to suffering, don’t sit back and apathetically blame indifference. The loudest voices may be delivering the worst messages today, but history shows that grass-roots energy has the power to change anything when that energy is focused toward justice (Washington Quotes)
I don’t know what the strategy will be in Washington. The reality is, is, I have got to go down there, as my mentor, as people like Bill Bradley have told me to do, get to know your colleagues on both sides of the aisle, recognize that they, too, beat with the same heart and the same type of blood. (Washington Quotes)
I won’t sell any Facebook shares as long as I’m on the board. When I leave, all my Facebook shares will be donated to two or three D.C. education-related charities I’ve supported over the years. Thus, a small portion of Facebook’s success will be shared with low income students in Washington. (Washington Quotes)
Christopher Hitchens, the late essayist and sot, was a man who purposefully cultivated a lot of friends of a certain type - rich, self-important, generally dim-witted and hence easy for a well-spoken Oxbridge debater to impress - and he electrified Washington D.C. society mainly by not being a completely charmless bore. (Washington Quotes)
