More From Mitch McConnell

For democrats who are feeling completely discouraged, i've been trying to remind them, everybody remembers my boston speech in 2004. they may not remember me showing up here in 2005 when john kerry had lost a close election, tom daschle, the leader of the senate, had been beaten in an upset. ken salazar and i were the only two democrats that won nationally. republicans controlled the senate and the house, and two years later, democrats were winning back congress, and four years later i was president of the united states.
Winning Boston Years
We know that a government shutdown is gonna blamed on the republicans no matter who, what, when, where, why. you want to give the media ammo going into 2018, how the republicans hate government, the republicans hate you, the republicans want you dead, the republicans want your kids dead, the republicans want you breathing dirty air, poisoned water, and all this stuff, a shutdown in september, it would actually be in october, because that's - i don't mean to pick hairs here, but a shutdown would be in october if it happens.
Hate Dirty Mean
Bob torricelli, democrat member of the senate, was basically about to be thrown out of office on corruption charges, and he went to the floor of the senate to deny everything. and we juxtaposed his denials with an attorney from someone in an action against torricelli who was listing all of the gifts and all the bribes that torricelli had been given and offered in exchange for policy considerations on the senate floor. so he's on the senate floor denying it.
Office Denial Bob
It's not a big deal, but it's quite noticeable and obvious to me, and it's a little hypocritical, and it's a little contradictory. here we have all of these republicans in the house and the senate - not all, but i mean a majority who, for seven years, ran on repealing and replacing obamacare. they promised, seven years. when it was time to reelect, time to campaign, promised. now they run the house and they run the senate, and they can't come up with a bill. isn't it amazing?
Running Mean House
What's insulting to the american people, the senate, to this whole process is that the republicans, with all other nominees, have said democrats are being obstructionist for wanting to see documents, for wanting to see a paper trail, for wanting to get questions answered in the judiciary committee hearings, and now all of a sudden, the republicans want those things for this.
People Insulting Paper
The democrats stand to lose even more seats in the senate. it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. it's certainly a once-in-a-generation opportunity to fix everything that has been on our minds for 30 years. it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it's not being utilized - and it isn't being utilized, sadly, because the perception is that it's house and senate republicans that are refusing to work with donald trump, that they're embarrassed of him, that they don't want trump to become the definition of a republican.
Opportunity House Perception

I do want to once again speak directly to the iranian people. yours is a great civilization with a vibrant culture that has so much to contribute to the world - in commerce and in science and in arts. for decades, your government's threats and actions to destabilize your region have isolated iran from much of the world, and now our governments are talking with one another. following the nuclear deal, you, especially young iranians, have the opportunity to begin building new ties with the world.

Some jobs pay better, some jobs smell better, and some jobs have no business being treated like careers. but work is never the enemy, regardless of the wage. because somewhere between the job and the paycheck, there’s still a thing called opportunity, and that’s what people need to pursue.
Jobs Opportunity Careers

The discovery of the north pole is one of those realities which could not be avoided. it is the wages which human perseverance pays itself when it thinks that something is taking too long. the world needed a discoverer of the north pole, and in all areas of social activity, merit was less important here than opportunity.
Perseverance Opportunity Reality
