It turns out it wasn't about the kids at all. It's about political contributions and his lobbyist friends.
Terry Barnich
It is clear now the European governments do not have a common position on what to do when they are haunted by political Islam.
Richard Whitman
Pro-labor elected officials, who authorized this political payback program, will also benefit from the union's monopoly in years to come.
Ceo Bryan Bedford
We are open to a peaceful solution, open to diplomatic negotiations. We are open to playing a constructive role in reaching a political solution on Kosovo, This aggression should halt immediately.
Nebojsa Vujovic
We want to give the prime minister ... a chance to come to a dialogue with all other political parties to set a firm commitment to political reform, and we'll await his response.
Abhisit Vejjajiva
We have to look at how shall we regulate the so-called political market. Should it be very free, or moderately free, or somehow restricted? It's my opinion it's too restricted nowadays.
Gothom Arya
I have encountered the notion that marriage is a partisan political issue.
Tom Rodgers
It's no doubt as shallow and disingenuous as Katz's numerous failed political campaigns. Local 98 simply held him accountable for his double-speak, and he's hated us ever since.
Frank Keel
Why did they wait several months to respond to attacks from unions? ... They made bad political decisions all the way through.
Allan Hoffenblum
Politically they are a very aware company. And they are aware that passing G.M. in this political environment is somewhat tricky.
Kurt Sanger
You've discriminated, in effect, against political speech, which is the speech most protected in our (First) Amendment.
John Simpson
I really think this is going to be one of those great moments in political history where we're not going to know whether it passes until the last moment.
William Beach
People who have had close political ties to the Democratic Party and to Gray Davis.
David Dreier
These data paint a pretty clear picture for our leaders, ... My message to Canadians, and to our political leaders: the clock is ticking, and it is ticking ominously.
Ruth Collins
There's a certain political unattractiveness to essentially providing tax breaks at the corporate level. . .and not providing any personal income tax breaks.
David Perry
The publishing of the political cartoons may be outweighed by the scope and intensity of the harm such an action could lead to.
Robert Steele
This court in one day has demonstrated, has proved eloquently, everything we have said about political control. This is institutionalized bias.
Robert Amsterdam
This is not a political process. The Public Service Board is a judicial body. We felt like it would be really unprofessional to interfere in that process.
John Harbison
We foresee limited political risks over the next six to nine months and remain bullish on the Philippines.
Sailesh Jha
The people jumping out now who are critical of the idea are ahead of the political curve. And people saying 'yes' now may be ahead of the curve, as well, ... We just don't know enough about it to make a decision.
Brian Bosma
We peruse one ideal, that of bringing people together in peace, irrespective of race, religion and political convictions, for the benefit of mankind.
Juan Antonio Samaranch
There is no question, however, that the bank was feeling a great deal of political pressure put upon it by the government.
Dennis Gartman
That's why it's very dangerous in that political system. That's why I am here. I am not inside the country that I love.
Mehrangiz Kar
I don't want any political interference in criminal investigations by prosecutors.
Frank Hsieh
It is not possible. There has never been even a political gathering of students in Al Azhar, let alone militant training.
Donman Phongmahung
The contract brings in everybody, domestic Chinese and Korean. It's more of a political gesture to share the wealth, and throw a bone to the U.S..
Duncan Clark
Bucks County is at the epicenter of America's political firestorm in 2006. Both parties have targeted this race.
Neil Samuels
They can't throw them away from the country like me, because they are many . They will change the political future of Iran.
Mehrangiz Kar
Political Islam has proven a formidable force even though Islamic movements or organizations often constitute a minority of the community.
John Esposito
No matter who is president of Indonesia from August, Jakarta will have to come to grips with the problems on its periphery as political issues, not just as security problems.
Richard Haass
The arguments in favor of it have a clear political appeal. So cable is taking a la carte very seriously.
Paul Gallant
Bill Maher is one of today's most insightful comedic minds who has, through his comedy, influenced political debate in this country. This performance is Maher at his best, and will appeal to both die-hard and new Bill Maher fans alike.
Barry Gordon
The disengagement from Gaza is a bold step. It has changed the political landscape. It offers a new chance to do something different between the Israelis and Palestinians, and we would like to see if it can bear further fruit.
David Welch
It's a very insular political community up there. I think the court's part of that and they're protecting their own. There's no justice in Vermont today.
Tom Fitton
Overflowing red ink can divide monetary and fiscal authorities on the importance of price stability. Weakening the consensus on fighting inflation only increases the temptation for political meddling in monetary policy.
Dallas Fed
Unfortunately, religion, like patriotism, is easy to misuse for political purposes.
Kjell Magne Bondevik
Investors were and have been a little nervous that will be a major political change in the elections in 2006.

That may have influenced this. It might have been complicated from a political point of view.
Peter Cooper
Garcia has a strong campaign strategy, an organized political party, and besides, he is a good speaker.
Bertrand Delgado
The question of how we should deal at the political and legal levels with attempts to circumvent the national consensus banning religious parties is on the table.
Gamal Mubarak
Investors will have to continue to wait for stronger signals from corporate results, economic indicators, and the political landscape.
Spencer Yap
It's going to be very difficult for any political group or political special interest to stand between the working families in Ohio and the opportunity for their children and grandchildren to get a college education.
David Hopcraft
It would have been nice to have it locked up at this point - not really for our sake but for the sake of the political process in Hartford.
Chris Cooney
There is need to maintain a congenial atmosphere for the political negotiations to continue.
Thuingaleng Muivah
They took an audit period when the department was clearly in disarray. It's disappointing, because I consider it a political document, not a competent audit of the school district.
Donald Van Every
I think they are both at risk and it creates a [political] diversion at the very least.
Doug Schoen
The government seems to have realized the people's share was a bad idea, which is good news. I'm glad they decided against using the privatization as a political platform.
Panagiotis Spiliopoulos
It just doesn't mesh. He grossly overestimated his political capital. Hubris, whatever, I can't explain it. He didn't have a lot of political capital. That was wrong.
George Edwards
Political advertising ought to be stopped. It's the only really dishonest kind of advertising that's left.
David M. Ogilvy
I do what I do, and write what I write, without calculating what is worth what and so on. Fortunately, I am not a banker or an accountant. I feel that there is a time when a political statement needs to be made and I make it.
Arundhati Roy
It's posturing. The question is: What kind of clout does the political posture have?
Anthony H. Cordesman
Only does the right thing under public political pressure.
David Wade
This is unconstitutional and done with an ill political motive...we don't accept it. We reject such appointment.
Abdul Jalil
The convention is the voice, the bone and the sinews of a political party-and sometimes it even nominates an Abraham Lincoln.
Fletcher Knebel
I am disappointed by such a political defeat, but we had been prepared for the possibility.
Kjell Magne Bondevik
We will reach out to political, community business and religious leaders around the state for their input.
Rick Segal
These cartoons now have political importance beyond their original meaning. We might not like them, but we will defend the right of anyone to publish them.
Roger Koeppel
My agenda is singular. I am not in this to be in the papers, for any political gain, the UNC is not my agenda, neither is the PNM. The youth and sport in this country are.
Ato Boldon
It is the first time in the history of Rwanda that political change in the highest leadership of the country has taken place in peace and security.
Paul Kagame
This is no less than a major earthquake in French political life. This is a massive collapse of the French left.
Pierre Lellouche
We are discussing the sharing of preferences with the other political parties and our decision would be made final on April 18.
Ratu Epeli Ganilau
In the midst of a heated political battle.
Jose Rivera
They were seeking political asylum and trying to avoid persecution in their country. They said they were Christians.
Rene Salinas
Ron Carey was leading the Teamsters back into political action. These were not budget-busting contributions.
Mark Hulkower
Obviously, Tom won by himself, but I think that his father's experience in the political arena was an asset to him.
Mark Proctor
The apathy will only be broken by some striking economic or political news.
Hector Perez
Our doors are opened... We are ready to sit at the negotiation table with all political parties.
Rinat Akhmetov
This is a serious case of malicious persecution of Cong. Beltran on account of his political beliefs and activities.
Romeo Capulong
No one should be allowed to use this tragedy for political speculation.
Pietro Lunardi
I think you're going to have to conclude that Chief Justice Moore has more political baggage than political advantage, and that his political fortunes in Alabama might not be too good.
Jean Brown
I probably carry more scar tissue on my derriere than any other candidate- that's political scar tissue.
Alexander Haig
We are sticking to our constant line on Iraq -- this is unchanged. The issue has to be resolved by political and diplomatic efforts and not by resorting to military measures.
Valery Nesterushkin
If the Bank of Japan decides not to end [its present policy] this week, that may create the impression that the Bank of Japan is surrendering to political pressure and add some additional downward pressure to the yen.
Takashi Kudo
Seventy dollars a barrel is a level that has invoked a political reaction.
Mark Keenan
To an objective non-American looking at the situation … is there really much of a difference between a terrorist leader going on television and issuing a fatwa against American political leaders, and Pat Robertson going on television and essentially issuing a fatwa against democratically-elected leaders in other countries?
David Sirota
The insinuation was that, if you don't support us, you have a room of people, who, from a political standpoint are going to sink you.
Joe Jaynes
What follows is not a new political party on the left, but a huge front made up of political and social organizations.
Subcomandante Marcos
What is not appropriate is for the central bank to talk about the details of how the fiscal balance should be achieved. That's a political issue. It's something that the Federal Reserve should not be involved in talking about.
Frederic Mishkin
But if the last five years have taught us anything, it's that this Congress is unwilling to police itself or this administration, ... The only viable option is an independent commission immune from political influence and partisanship.
Alcee Hastings
There is quite a big contrast between the political situation in Japan and Germany and investors are looking to play on that contrast.

Jameel Jaffer
Usually you can point the finger at the consumers of intel ... the political and military leaders.
Matthew Aid
This is a country that's based on the free enterprise system. And if a profit-making group wants to invest their money in a political campaign, it's their right to do that.
John Kehoe
This court proved eloquently everything we have said about political control.
Robert Amsterdam
There was so much political music going on; it was the height of the anti-nuke stuff, ... there should be more places for people to do this kind of music.
Pete Seeger
Everyone has to do what they think is best for their political future. If you're afraid of keeping Tom DeLay's PAC money, you're probably afraid of your own shadow.
Henry Bonilla
The stock market was falling due to one reason which is political uncertainty.
Sukbir Khanijoh
When people learn no tools of judgment and merely follow their hopes, the seeds of political manipulation are sown.
Stephen Jay Gould
What is going on in the political process is a transition from war to peace. After 22 years of war, we have won the war, virtually, and we have to win the peace.
Abdullah Abdullah
I am proud to be a Democrat. Unfortunately, some of my political opponents are attempting to mislead the residents of the 19th District about who I am and the values that I hold.
Judy Aydelott
Political theater is not uncommon in the black church culture.
Robert Franklin
He has a way of speaking that is closer to the people. He comes from the (political) left, and there is the perception that he would do more for those who are the ones who leave.
Carlos Ordonez
There are many Albanian political prisoners in Serbia ... who have been kidnapped, and we know nothing about their fate.
Hashim Thaci
He was using our conference as a party political platform.
Barbara Gill
I think both political camps have learned so much in this process because it never happened before. We learned a lot about voting patterns and the election process. I think we all learned about things to be wary of.
Mike Ferreira
No one (has) come from West Papua in boats before like this, seeking political asylum.
Louise Byrne
We've seen political crises before rise and then cool off. The hope is that we would also see some cooling off of the Iranian situation.
Frederic Dickson
It was hoped political attitudes would change, but this was likely to take some time.
John Carlson
I'd like to think when my political career is over, people will remember me for something other than immigration.
Chip Rogers
I never wanted to see him fired. I just wanted to see him teach the facts and not his own biased political views.
Sean Allen
He does come with a political resume. He will create a stir in the communities he visits.
Lee Miringoff
Political tensions will probably escalate as the ruling party is trying to fill 500 House seats by dubious means.
Chuan Leekpai
The political involvement was more than I'd ever experienced. You either succeed or go home in that kind of environment.
Bob Richards
[I've never been] a political person in my life.
Oscar Peterson
You really need the best people in the JAG Corp. Look at what's happened with torture and treatment of detainees. You want the best advisers to the political administration you can get.
Joseph Zengerle
The security and welfare of all people by political and educational and other activities.
Reid Weingarten
People are always asking me if I'm a political activist. We're trying really hard to bring more work to the people in the community.
Natalie Chanin
I?m in the wonderful position ? having chose not to run ? of not having to get involved in the political arena.
Larry Meyer
Labor has too often been the political arm of the Democratic Party. That ends now.
John Wilhelm
I think their basic view is, 'When you, the Palestinians, show that you're doing it, we'll get involved. If not we're not going to invest a lot of political capital.' I think that is the message.
David Makovsky
We have an interest in the investigation, because we are convinced that we will be given a clean slate -- if the results are not falsified for political reasons, ... Syria had nothing to do with this murder, absolutely nothing.
Bashar Assad
The PAC clearly believes so. It was a business-related trip in the political life of Jack Evans.
William Jarvis
Although (the selection process is) political, once the process is done, you try to toss that hat away and abide by the state election laws.
Paul Bolinger
We believe the solution to this problem is a political solution.
Bizima Karaha
There is no such ''condition'' as ''schizophrenia,'' but the label is a social fact and the social fact a political event.
R. D. Laing
The truth is that Congress has lacked the political will to enforce it. The federal governmental stepped in and said we're going to subsidize your insurance in return for certain things, but the other part of the bargain often hasn't materialized.
Theodore Steinberg
I'm glad they decided against using the privatization as a political platform after all.
Panagiotis Spiliopoulos
We took to the streets because all other methods had failed. All political parties failed us miserably on this issue.
Praveen Khandelwal
It is awfully nice to go back to a country where the political system was so corrupt and to see enormous changes for the better.
Larry Denardis
The Haitian National police still needs help in dealing with ruthless gangs, drug traffickers and political groups that seek to manipulate the police for their own ends.
Peter Burleigh
The timing of the bombings was clearly designed to wreak the greatest level of havoc and carnage. They are an attack on the democratic process and cannot be justified by any political cause.
Bertie Ahern
Political commercials encourage the deceptive, the destructive and the degrading.
John O'toole
I saw a need . . . of the Hispanic community moving together to work on education, employment and in the political area.
Jose Bermudez
Why should people who happen to be Christians be booted out of the political process?
Keith Butler
Usually you end up with neither because there's a political stalemate. This bill includes both the right-wing answer and the left-wing answer.
Brian Rosman
Flag desecration is not a constitutional issue for the courts. It is a political one that belongs to the people.
Larry Craig
It's our role now to factor in the social and political ramifications.
Cal Dubrock
I don't intend for this to take on a political tone. I'm just here for the drugs.
Nancy Reagan
I grew up in Sydney in a very political household, where we were all for the underdog.
John Pilger
They have to come over the political hurdle first before they can talk about anything else.
Frank Gong
Mr. DeLay has been brought to trial by a partisan district attorney who is abusing his office in order to score political points and raise funds for liberal Democrats.
Laura Blackann
Dr Fox's decision to run does not seem to have excited political punters.
Graham Sharpe
The political affect on the market continues to be small. We think that at the end of March and beginning of April, the polls will start to matter.
Manuel Torres
AARP does not have the right to expect taxpayers to foot the bill to help advance its political agenda.
John Carlisle
He was present at every meeting where political and military actions were decided upon that resulted in deportations, illegal arrests, ethnic cleansing and the deaths of thousands of Bosnians.
Paul Risley
I think that the Communist Party as a political organization is of no danger to the United States. It has no following and has been disregarded by the American people for many, many years.
Robert F. Kennedy
He had a tremendous ego -- at times, insufferable. At the same time he was incredibly brilliant, a great scholar and a great activist in American political and Israeli political affairs.
David Twersky
Jack's doing a fine job, and he should be left alone by all the political hacks that want to take shots at him.
Brett Hall
Intelligent design is a public relations movement. People are going to have to decide who they want making the decisions. This is about raw political power.
Sue Gamble
Maggie Valley will work out its political issues.
Mike Toohey
The rule of law should be upheld by all political parties. They should neither advise others to break the law, nor encourage others to do so even when they strongly disagree with the legislation put forward by the government of the day.
Jim Callaghan
We shall see what the political arm of government does.
Daniel Shea
I'm not really a political satirist. I don't kid myself. I'm more interested in doing the mannerisms and the personality.
Rich Little
But the life that no longer trust another human being and no longer forms ties to the political community is not a human life any longer.
Martha Nussbaum
We didn't do a very good job. But we did it all right. The science was all right. We even advocated well. But at the end of the day, a political decision was made that we simply could not influence.
David Wilmot
I think there's frustration across the political spectrum.
Michele Waslin
We're at unique point in history where the things that we are building are going to significantly impact our social, political, economical, and personal lives.
Anita Borg
It is understandable. But there is something bigger at stake for the government: its ability to modernize the political system.
Igor Burakovsky
Although there is some political instability in a country like India, it really doesn't impact the software development, primarily because all of this work is done through satellite links.
Sunil Wadhwani
The main question is not the length of the extension period, but rather whether there is political will, resolve and flexibility to make hard decisions. In the absence of good intentions, a week or longer would not be enough.
Ali Dabbagh
We will have no option but to take industrial action and commence a political and community campaign to protect jobs in Australia.
Doug Cameron
Venice was always one step removed from what was going on. If you were in Turin or in Milan or one of the industrial centers, you would have had a much more active political constituency. Venice essentially lived for itself.
Joseph Kanon
There was no quality, no sound integrity. It was good for broadcasting political rallies or football games, but it had nothing to do with music, and nothing to do with making people who are coming to hear music happy.
Buddy Cage
Nonetheless, the Italian political agenda in the run-up to an election suggests that it would be wrong to assume that fundamentals will be fully taken into account.
Societe Generale
At this point, Gutierrez is not a major political figure in Ecuador.
Adrian Bonilla
There's no real reason for them to grant early parole, because it's a political risk. There's no expectation of them looking at prison growth as an incentive.
Christie Donner
How often do you see the attorney general go on a sort of a charm offensive? ... I see this as a defensive measure on his part. It is a political campaign.
Laura Murphy
Not only is the expanded VAT in place, the government has already raised the VAT rate to 12 percent. There is obviously lesser political noise now than before, so what else does Moody's want before it changes its outlook?
Jose Arnulfo Veloso
At the political level, the commitment is great.
Henk Bekedam
[She has learned a lot from her political job.] Every morning I wake up an hour early and attend briefings. You have to be really excited and energetic and able to pump people up, ... I'll dance and scream and do cheers.
Krista Allen
This question will be resolved at a political level.
Sergei Ignatchenko
It will be very difficult to have such serious discussions or fruitful discussions with the atmosphere of elections because, of course, those decisions will become part of the political issues for the electoral debate.
Natan Sharansky
I think there is more political attention on [this issue] now than there was a few weeks ago. Our hope is that Republicans hold the line.
Jonathan Gold
It's the political equivalent of the death penalty, ... We should not use the ultimate sanction when there is an alternative at hand.
William Delahunt
The fulfillment of this decision would be a serious political mistake which would have the worst negative impact on the situation in the region considering how complex it already is.
Alexander Yakovenko
With out Cobb, we'd have no means to challenge one of the greatest political crimes in American history.
David W. Cobb
It wasn't a matter of public policy; it was a matter of political power.
Herb Kelleher
We go there with an open mind and objectivity but we do not have much hope that we will find a political solution to the dispute.
Randall Howard
Our lobbying contributions, like our political contributions, are in the public domain.
Denise Foy
Italians at the end of the day are Europeans. This Cuban guy is a person of color and a political refugee.
Serena Kim
What I'm worried about is a dominant opinion power. Even the chance that Springer could try to move this empire in a particular political direction is enough to stop it.
Michael Konken
This culture of unity governments is a danger to democracy. We are being swept into an illogical political situation.
Amir Peretz
[Still, such a idea is political dynamite.] The politics are impossible, ... Politicians do this at their peril.
Leonard Burman
The problem with political jokes is they get elected.
Henry Cate VII
The first [thing] is to take care of that issue first and not try to score political points.
Rob Bishop
I would say that any of us might disagree with John on any particular political or philosophical point, but I don't know anyone who has questioned his integrity.
John C. Danforth
She (first lady Grant) provided moral support for her husband throughout his military and then political career. They had a very loving relationship.
Mary Hendron
Blair is using up a lot of political capital in getting this through. It will be tough and bruising going forward but it is not in itself fatal.
John Curtice
What matters is that this bloke is happy; he loves life and he appears to love Melbourne. His glass is half full, or bubbling over, and that is what we like ... John So stands out in a sea of political blandness.
Andrew Clarke
They are allowed to do a substantial amount of political activity, but they are not allowed to make it their primary purpose.
Craig Holman
Bush knows that Berlusconi will lose, and is giving him a farewell party. This new legislature may be stillborn, and we may be in for a period of political instability.
Massimo Franco
The petroleum reserve is not a political reserve -- and raiding it won't lower fuel prices in the long run.
John Engler
Beijing's control of the Internet has been in the news lately, but it represents just one facet of an intricate system of restrictions on the free circulation of ideas in China. The Chinese government is hoping to enjoy the benefits of the global economy without jeopardizing its political control.
Jennifer Windsor
If this had happened when the voters were in a better mood or the political environment was not as bad for Republicans, then the likelihood of this story being able to gain that much momentum would be smaller.
Amy Walter
It is proof positive of media consolidation run amok when one owner can use the public airwaves to blanket the country with its political ideology -- whether liberal or conservative.
