Our military deserves leadership that matches their service and patriotism. Getting our troops the pay raise they deserve is the very least we can do to show how much we value everything they do for us.
Senator John Kerry
I saw how different life was on different sides of the same city. I saw the fear in the eyes of people who were not free. I saw the gratitude of people toward the United States for all that we had done. I felt goosebumps as I got off a military train and ...
Senator John Kerry
We owe our troops the opportunity to serve in the best-planned, best-equipped, and best-led military force in the world, and we owe them the peace of mind that comes from knowing that they and their families will be taken care of if they sacrifice life, l...
Senator John Kerry
If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus be...

After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn`t do it. I sure as hell wouldn`t want to live in a society where the only people allowed guns are the police and the military.
William Burroughs
I love general history. That`s all I read really. I don`t read novels, I read history. I love it. I live in an area that`s really rich in Civil War history. I live in Kentucky on a farm. A lot of revolution, a lot of military history I love. I like micro-...

[On benefits provided to military personnel, Tipp City, OH, April 19, 2007] One of my concerns is that the health care not be as good as it can possibly be.
George W. Bush
Everyday I had to show up and convince myself that I literally was this guy (T-1000) and that`s not easy to do. There are many distractions. I really consider the whole T2 experience sort of like a boot camp, military type of an experience that I endured ...
Robert Patrick
I`m a pessimist. But I`m a pessimist with a sense of responsibility. If I had never joined the military, the weight of my words wouldn`t be so heavy.
Maynard James Keenan
When somebody is attacking your hometown, and you`re just sitting in the basement, you feel really useless. I felt I had to do it to defend my country. That`s normal. - on why he extended his military service.
Goran Visnjic
[when asked if he is still registered as a Republican] Yes, I am. I started - I enrolled as a Republican in 1951 when Dwight D. Eisenhower was running. And I was in the military. I was a fan of his. And that`s how I got started off. I was never - my paren...
Clint Eastwood
The Cold War has been the most irritating thing to me personally. Throughout my life we`ve been in the grip of militarism and military budgets and a mindset that dictates a war on Communism, and that`s a drain on the national energy. The real enemy is nat...

[Explaining why he supports a mandatory military draft] "We, the people, should participate in the privileges we have in this democracy that we live in, and we should all share in the dangers and the risks with our lives to protect the freedoms that we ha...
Harvey Keitel
I`m very disturbed about the direction American foreign policy is going. I think something needs to be done to help alleviate the conditions which have created a disenfranchised and angry faction in the Middle East. I don`t think military intervention is ...
Harrison Ford
It would irritate my father so much - because he was a military man, and both my brothers did military service, and I didn`t - that I walk around New York and I hear, `Hey, Captain, how are you?`

It was about six months of brutal training, twice a day at the gym, a Navy Seal guy would come over to my house and take me to the firing range, firing live rounds down the range, primary and secondary weapons. Learning edge weapons training, one man mili...
