To reform a world to reform a nation no wise man will undertake and all but foolish men know that the only solid though a far slower reformation is what each begins and perfects on himself.

I welcome the President and working with him to try to get some of that medical malpractice reform so we can get the cost of health care to come down.

Reform of the medical liability system should be considered as part of a comprehensive response to surging medical malpractice premiums that endanger Americans' access to quality medical care.

Without true medical liability reform our doctors will continue to leave and young doctors coming out of medical school $100 000 to $200 000 in debt will not be able to afford such onerous costs.

It worries me about our unwillingness to really address reforms and modernization in Medicare. This thing was designed 37 years ago. It has not evolved to keep pace with current medical technology.

Medical liability reform is not a Republican or Democrat issue or even a doctor versus lawyer issue. It is a patient issue.

What we need are not prohibitory marriage laws but a reformed society an educated public opinion which will teach individual duty in these matters.

The old welfare system was hurting people by discouraging work and marriage. Welfare reform and now this legislation will build on the understanding that work and strong families are the foundation upon which we build our future.

My dream is to reform the legal system over the next 20 years.

Moreover from reforming the tax code to our immigration system to commonsense legal reform President Bush put America on notice that he will continue fighting to make the country and the world a better place for future generations.
