I don't agree with those in our community who THINK that, as gay people, we are SPECIAL and should therefore keep ourselves ISOLATED from certain straight-associated THINKING or conventions.

Our COMPASSION for one another, and our INDIVIDUAL ACTIONS to HELP, is what makes our nation - and our community - great.

Being a WORKING mom, you want to make a DIFFERENCE in our SCHOOLS, which is making a difference in our CHILDREN and ultimately it's making a difference in our COMMUNITY.

Chris Kirkpatrick and I were in COLLEGE in choir together; we SANG at our community college. I'm partially the REASON why Chris even got into being in a boy BAND with *NSYNC.

It's INSULTING when somebody who is not a MEMBER of our COMMUNITY feels like they have a great understanding of what it's like to grow up GAY in this COUNTRY.

I will ALWAYS be a voice of reason for our community, our STATE and our NATION.

I will put the needs of the CITIZENS of all creeds and backgrounds in our community over the needs of INDIVIDUALS who DECIDE to break the law to come to our NATION.

It's just like - you KNOW, you read the New Testament and you read about all the things, and you THINK, 'Oh, that's not going on in our COMMUNITY.' Oh yes it is.

You've got to have sustained success, you've got to STAND for CERTAIN things in our community and I think that's what PEOPLE are going to see with COACH Schiano.

I think that food TIES us to our COMMUNITY and our TRADITIONS, and it's the thing that makes us FEEL GOOD and connected.

We do have to watch to see how the FOREIGN WORKERS and immigrants are fitting in with our community, and you have to watch them MIX so that you don't overbalance the NUMBERS or the tone of our SOCIETY.

Our obligation is to our YOUNG people, is to our WOMEN, to make sure our women are PROTECTED in our community.

The Vietnamese and the REPUBLICANS are, with an intensity, trying to TAKE this SEAT from which we have done so much for our community - to take this seat and GIVE it to this Van Tran, who is very anti-immigrant and very anti-Hispanic.
