Joseph Crowley
I think they're blown out of proportion. It's not about what he did or didn't do, it's about politics. As long as he gets the job done, what do I care?
Joy Chandler
Politics is too partisan, and sometimes patriotism is cast aside. Patriotism is honor and love of your country and your brothers and sisters. With politics I get the impression that it's all about what's good for the party and not necessarily what's good for the country.
Ricardo Montalban
There are a lot of people who want to work in politics who aren't lobbyists.
William Stairs
If I had a bill in front of the legislature and came to the Coon Supper with enough bottles of 'Old No. 7' for all the legislators in attendance, it would be called bribery. When Jack Daniel's does it, it's just politics as usual.
Andrew Johnson
He was just an extraordinarily able guy. You couldn't work with Bill Clinton and not see it. We were philosophically in tune with each other and we took our politics seriously and it was so clear that Bill Clinton was one of the best.

Pete Witte
Politics may have failed the people of New Orleans. ... But their newspaper and other important segments of the American press did not fail them.
Tim Rutten

Kathy Lawrence
It's a communist country, and that will come into play at some point. It will be interesting to see how politics and business mix as these firms keep pouring money into China.

Terri Mcbride
Defied cynicism and entered politics.
Bill Pullman
Gov. Riley has asked the legislature to focus on these commonsense reforms early in the session. This is a problem that has built up for decades. We shouldn't let politics get in the way.
Jeff Emerson

Rich Robinson
One of the things the older generation understands is government and politics.

David Molina
What is happening across the pages of almost every newspaper is a ruthless attempt to destroy the young challenger among the Tory modernizers' camp and to keep the Conservatives firmly on the right of British politics.
Jackie Ashley
This is our attempt to get politics out of the way. Last year, people couldn't get over the hurdle and couldn't tackle the one contentious issue. This will really help people in the future as issues become more and more contentious.
Sen. Susan Bartlett
This is a fine example of why people live in small communities. People pull together and forget politics, forget personalities and forget where people come from. They pull together in a time of need. It's just been an amazing thing to see.
Murrel Harris
We all know the decision is a political gimmick to please the backward castes and win polls. Politics should not come into creativity. This is a shameful decision. It would only reduce competence.

We've got it all covered, right here at this table -- traveling, cars, politics, law enforcement and religion.
Jim Powell
Even the incurable optimists, as some of us are, are deeply worried. Six years down the line in the attempt to build democracy this is what we get: violence in the land, and a government in breach. The only thing happening is politics. It is motion without movement.
Kayode Fayemi
In a nation of laws, we would have thought that would have ended it. I think our concern is that this is not about justice. This is not about the law. This is about politics.

Brandi Chastain
Today was to be the day when the gun was to be finally taken out of Irish politics.

Michael Stanley
Whether you agree or disagree with my brother's politics, a crime such as this should never happen.

William Hague
It's been my experience that you don't get very far in politics here or anywhere outside the two-party system.

There is something for everybody and everyone does well in at least one aspect of the class. My business majors do well in the economic portion, my political science majors do well in the politics portion. I'm basically here to be the guide.

John Spirko
I really think people will find that, at a personal level, there is a hole left in this Congress by Sonny's departure. People are going to miss him as a human being in a way that transcends politics.
Georgia Republican
China is sophisticated and understands U.S. domestic politics. And if they get branded a manipulator, they will understand why. It has to do with U.S. domestic politics and isn't an attack on China.
Andy Rothman
He was a founder of gesture politics with the most acute of eyes for what would now be called the photo opportunity.
John Hudson

George Stewart
Sponsorship, that's the guts of it. And politics.

Edward Cox
This election could mean a major jump to a much more Western-style system in Japanese politics -- that's revolutionary.
Ellis Krauss
It's back to local politics. The federal dimension of Europe is more in the background than in the 1990s, and individual countries are becoming more important.
Eric Chaney
No. I probably do better not being in politics. They have too much control over you when you are in politics.
Evander Holyfield

Edward Skyler
Mugabe has built his power base on the politics of patronage ... and all those things are part of the support base.
Eldred Masunungure
Everybody agrees that we have to fix these levees. But declaring a state of emergency an hour before a political convention smacks much more of politics than it does of leadership. The governor has had many opportunities to fund and fix these levees before, and he hasn't done it.
Eric Antebi
There has been a fundamental change in the paradigm of politics today. I don't think Republicans even realize this.
Eric Massa
This will change Arizona politics forever. This is a tipping point (for) the Latino community and its energies.
