More quotes by Rahm Emanuel
I think that every country presents its own particular challenges, different cultures, different histories, different religions, different people. And different ethnic make-ups in those countries present different challenges.
Rahm Emanuel
Rather than doing the kind of fact-checking that normally goes with a story, you ran with certain stories for not wanting to get beat. There's a pressure that exists in your profession. I would be surprised in any honest exchange that you say that doesn't exist.
Rahm Emanuel
I should say the leadership's proposal in the Senate and the House are very unpopular. And when people realize it will raise taxes, raise their insurance premiums cost and explode the deficit, they think twice about it.
Rahm Emanuel
I do not believe that a counterterrorism strategy all by itself, without a sufficient level of counterinsurgency, will work.
Rahm Emanuel
I wake up some mornings hating me too.
Rahm Emanuel
The fact is, Bush's war policy has failed. It's failed! Who better to say so than Jack Murtha?
Rahm Emanuel
Republicans are 'bad people who deserve a two-by-four upside their heads.'
Rahm Emanuel
Things happened there that I don't think are the finest hours for anybody, whether it was a journalist, the legal system or, in that case of the political system, who would say that was an example of when Washington worked best.
Rahm Emanuel
What is more comforting to the terrorists around the world: the failure to pass the 9/11 legislation because we lacked 'a majority of the majority,' or putting aside partisan politics to enact tough new legislation with America's security foremost in mind?
Rahm Emanuel
I think indeed our response on counterinsurgency needs to be finely tuned to the needs of Afghanistan. This is not Iraq. We don't have a Sons of Iraq here. We don't have the same divisions here that we had between Sunni and Shia.
Rahm Emanuel
I still believe the Lewinsky investigation was way off from the focus of what Whitewater was, which turned out to be nothing at the end of the process. And I think that there were people who were determined as political opponents to not allow his presidency to succeed.
Rahm Emanuel
The Afghan - obviously the parties will decide which course of action. The most important there, get a government that is seen as legitimate to the people and has the credibility to be a partner in the effort to secure Afghanistan so it's not a haven for al Qaeda or other type of terrorists or international terrorist organizations.
Rahm Emanuel
Because of the president’s leadership, every American will have access to affordable, quality health care.
Rahm Emanuel
I think the most important thing for us to make judgments about is what can we really do? What can we achieve?
Rahm Emanuel
Obviously what I think Senator [John] Kerry was pointing to, which is absolutely correct, which is the essential part of the strategy or a key component or a leg on the stool, is an Afghan partner that is ready to take control of both the security situation in Afghanistan, and the civilian side of that.
Rahm Emanuel
[Obama White House] rescued the economy from the worst recession.
Rahm Emanuel
No officer should be allowed to behave as if they are above the law, just because they are responsible for upholding the law.
Rahm Emanuel
We need to deal with the problem of al Qaeda, make sure that they can't have a sanctuary in Afghanistan and guarantee that we have regional stabilization and particularly focused on Pakistan.
Rahm Emanuel
Personally, I don't pick books for how people think about me. I read books so I can learn.
Rahm Emanuel
You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.
