Tom Daschle September Quotations

On September 14th, we voted unanimously to send our troops into action against the perpetrators of the cowardly and heinous attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. That was our constitutional duty, and it is one that none of us takes lightly,

If the stories in the media over the past week are accurate, the president has exercised authority that I do not believe is granted to him in the Constitution, and that I know is not granted to him in the law that I helped negotiate with his counsel and that Congress approved in the days after September 11.

What happened on September 11th did not diminish our strength, ... It renewed it.

They are the victims of terrorists just as those who died on September 11,

As the representatives of the people we are here to declare that our resolve has not been weakened by these horrific and cowardly acts.
