| Zach Wamp QUOTES / QUOTATIONS |
Abraham Lincoln said we do not claim to have God on our side, but we strive to be on his. We should not and cannot rewrite history to ignore our spiritual heritage. It surrounds us. It cries out for our country to honor God and to seek and supplicate His will in our country's life.

And I am a conservative. Sometimes conservatives forget we are supposed to conserve, to save, to be efficient. Plus our dependence on other sources of energy is causing our country to not be independent and to really be vulnerable. So this is a security issue.
Quotation of Zach Wamp

As long as North Korea is going to defy the wishes of the global community we need to stand together against these threats.
Quotation of Zach Wamp

Because these kids get away from their parents, and they binge drink until they are sick. Dozens of them are going to the hospital, and some of them dying. This is a problem, a big problem that needs to be addressed, and we need accurate information.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Before I begin talking about the threats we face, the vulnerabilities that we have, and frankly the courage of the men and women in uniform that stand in harm's way on behalf of a very grateful Nation, let me first honor the sacrifices of September 11.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
But Hezbollah now has reared its ugly head in a way that threatens the entire free world. And they want, by their own charter and definition, the destruction of Israel and Christians. That is the truth. That is in their charter.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
But there is bipartisan resolve to advance all of our energy sources as rapidly as possible. And so I applaud them in a sense, but I would also say that there is no silver bullet. We need to do all of the above, and we can't just rely on particular fuels. We need to increase our domestic capacity.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Clearly, hybrids are a bridge. We want to promote that. But we have got to move through all these technologies.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Failure to properly control our borders costs citizens in many ways: schools become overcrowded, medical resources are stretched too thin, other government services are overtaxed, and taxes increase further.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
For twenty years, Islamic Jihadists have been attacking American interests around the world and we did not take them seriously until September 11th, 2001.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Frankly, alcohol leads to a lot of other things when you start drinking at 12-years old. It is a big problem that needs to be addressed. Frankly, the industry has pushed us back and pushed us back.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Hamas, also elected to governmental leadership in Palestine, includes the jihadists, people who have declared war on the United States of America and its ally, Israel.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
I believe the National Park Service has demonstrated strong partnerships geared towards respecting the private property of citizens in its administering of the current Trail of Tears National Historic Trail and will continue to do so upon the addition of the routes.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
I do think that tremendous energy now is put behind the goal of becoming energy independent as soon as possible in this country.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
I know a lot of people in this country who are in denial or they want to blame everybody else for the dilemma that we find ourselves in.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
I know it starts at home, but all families are not staying together.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
I really believe deep in my soul that we're going to have to step up and face these challenges and be tough and pull together and unify and be creative and be willing to sacrifice.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
If we pulled out of Iraq tomorrow, Islamic jihadism is on the rise. And they continue, as we see in Lebanon, to seek to destroy the State of Israel and seek to drive America back and bring us to our knees. We must stand tall and straight.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
In closing, let me just thank God, on the floor of the House, for not turning away from us even though we seem to be turning away from Him.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Now, the United Nations is an organization that I believe was founded with good intentions. As a matter of fact, a prominent Tennessean named Cordell Hull was very involved with it.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Over this August district work period, like many of my colleagues, I spent a lot of time with the men and women in uniform from my home State. The 196th Field Artillery Brigade just got back from a year in Afghanistan.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Republicans in Congress boosted the economy by cutting taxes and ending programs that don't work.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Terror is a tactic that our enemy is using, but it is not really a war on terror.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
That was one of the great successes of removing Saddam Hussein, as we took Iraq out of the picture of having a sovereign nation from which the terrorists could operate. But this war has not gone perfectly.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
The pro-growth policies and spending restraint of Conservatives work.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
The U.S. along with China, Japan, South Korea and Russia has an important role to play in containing North Korea's nuclear ambitions and exerting all the influence we can possibly exert.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
The wind is in our face. We are going in the right direction. The world is going in the wrong direction. The world is going down the tubes with things like this, and we need to stand against it together, united, and invest wisely to frankly save the next generation from some problems.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Those are serious questions of war and peace, of freedom or tyranny, whether or not there is ever going to be a hope of us instilling some democratic systems in a part of the world that frankly is breeding hate and destruction directed right at us.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
Today the people from my State of Tennessee would listen to this debate, or even talk about a reference to God on our money or in the Halls of Congress or in our Pledge and say, please, let common sense and logic win the day and prevail versus legal mumbo jumbo.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
We can not underestimate the potential harm North Korea's capabilities can cause for the rest of the world.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
We must curtail the flow of illegal immigrants across the Mexican border.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
We need to be honest that we are at war with the Islamic jihadists. The jihadists are spreading their networks around the world.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
We saw extraordinary heroism in the wake of September 11. That is what the character of this great Nation is all about.
Quotation of Zach Wamp
|
When you know something in your heart, you better not be quiet about it. You better speak out about it.
