All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.

The result is - document destruction - we're really not going to be able to prove beyond a truth the negatives and some of the positive conclusions that we're going to come to. There will be always unresolved ambiguity here.

Is truth always positive? Of course. Once the truth comes out you know it's all right. We're scared that if the truth comes out that it's not all right. It's the other way around.

I don't want to waste anyone's time or money. I want to give people some truth and positive heart lift.

Well I think any time you delve into this sort of religion politics as you well know you're going to you know touch a few nerves. I wasn't - now - and this is the honest truth.

Truth is I don't think God on a daily basis. I think politics science.

The sheep-people don't think for themselves anymore. You can say anything and it's the gospel truth and they don't have to go research it or anything and they believe everything the news tells them. People don't go and do their own investigations if it's relationships or politics or anything.

Inauthenticity is endemic in American politics today. The political backrooms where I spent much of my career were just as benighted as my personal life equally crowded with shadowy strangers and compromises truths I hoped to deny. I lived not in one closet but in many.

When you look at our world the truth is that we're all under the influence of politics.

There's a nastiness out there that wants to harm me with words. These are my enemies - the ideologues the populists the columnists who don't like the fact that I take them on toe-to-toe. What I try to do is tell the truth. It's not the coin of the realm in politics.
