Caroline Bouvier Kennedy (born November 27, 1957) is an American author and attorney. She is a member of the influential Kennedy family and the only surviving child of U.S. President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy.
At the time of her father's presidency she was a young child; after his assassination in 1963 her family settled in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where she attended school. Kennedy graduated from Radcliffe College and worked at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art, where she met her future husband, exhibit designer Edwin Schlossberg. She went on to receive a J.D. degree from Columbia Law School. Kennedy's professional life has spanned law and politics as well as education and charitable work. She has also acted as a spokesperson for her family's legacy and co-authored two books on civil liberties with Ellen Alderman.
In the 2008 presidential election, Kennedy endorsed Democratic candidate Barack Obama for President early in the primary race; she later stumped for him in Orlando, Indiana, and Ohio, served as co-chair of his Vice Presidential Search Committee, and addressed the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver. After Obama's selection of then-Senator Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, Kennedy expressed interest in being appointed to Clinton's vacant Senate seat from New York, but she later withdrew from consideration, citing "personal reasons."
John Sidney McCain III (born August 29, 1936) is the senior United States Senator from Arizona. He was the Republican presidential nominee in the 2008 United States election.
McCain followed his father and grandfather, both four-star admirals, into the United States Navy, graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1958. He became a naval aviator, flying ground-attack aircraft from aircraft carriers. During the Vietnam War, he was almost killed in the 1967 USS Forrestal fire. In October 1967, while on a bombing mission over Hanoi, he was shot down, seriously injured, and captured by the North Vietnamese. He was a prisoner of war until 1973. McCain experienced episodes of torture, and refused an out-of-sequence early repatriation offer. His war wounds left him with lifelong physical limitations.
He retired from the Navy as a captain in 1981 and moved to Arizona, where he entered politics. Elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1982, he served two terms, and was then elected to the U.S. Senate in 1986, winning re-election easily four times, most recently in 2010. While generally adhering to conservative principles, McCain at times has had a media reputation as a "maverick" for his willingness to disagree with his party on certain issues. After being investigated and largely exonerated in a political influence scandal of the 1980s as a member of the Keating Five, he made campaign finance reform one of his signature concerns, which eventually led to the passage of the McCain-Feingold Act in 2002. He is also known for his work towards restoring diplomatic relations with Vietnam in the 1990s, and for his belief that the war in Iraq should be fought to a successful conclusion. McCain has chaired the Senate Commerce Committee, opposed spending that he considered to be pork barrel, and played a key role in alleviating a crisis over judicial nominations.

Senior Chief Miller: [interrogating terrorist] Shit filter's full.
Chief Dave: That last night at home, you think about how you could of been a better dad, a better husband, that bedtime story you should of read, or that anniversary you forgot. You don't expect your family to understand what you're doing. You just hope they understand you're doing it for them, and when you get home you hope you can pick-up right where you left off.
[last lines]::LT Rorke: Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life. Beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.
[first lines]::LT Rorke: Before my father died, he said the worst thing about growing old was that other men stopped seeing you as dangerous. I've always remembered that, how being dangerous was sacred, a badge of honor. You live your life by a code, an ethos. Every man does. It's your shoreline. It's what guides you home. And trust me, you're always trying to get home.
Walter Ross: In most cases, officers get tactical partners. Langley sets me up with some sort of SCRABBLE hustler.::Lisa Morales: SCRABBLE Yoda, OK? Get it right.
Chief Dave: Senior Chief. I couldn't really tell you much about him, other than I'd rather take a knife into a gunfight than have to be interrogated by him.
Chief Dave: [getting ready to jump] I tell you what, the only thing better than this right here is being a dad. Except for that whole changing diaper thing.
Kerimov: [showing explosive vest] Believe me, there are few weapons in the world which a single man can operate that are more deadly.
Christo: You know, from time to time, I get to see my old friends from my old life. And it's always, always disappointing. Some become assholes, others boring, and I can't believe I tried to get them in bed all those years ago.
Senior Chief Miller: I'm Otto.::Christo: Otto.::Senior Chief Miller: Yes. And you are?::Christo: Nice to meet you... Christo.::Senior Chief Miller: "Crisco"?

One man made a difference
Tony Blair: You've learned nothing from me, Gordon - absolutely nothing. Because if you had, you would have acquired at least a *hint* of charisma. But then you and charisma have never really been on speaking terms.::Gordon Brown: The public don't want charisma any more - what they want is honesty.::Tony Blair: Instead of which, they get you!
[Tony Blair is reading a newspaper report]::Tony Blair: Oh my God. George is back in rehab.::Cherie Blair: George?::Tony Blair: Bush. George Bush. Oh God, he was found comatose on his ranch.::Cherie Blair: [drily] I'm surprised anyone noticed.::Tony Blair: He's my friend. All right? George is my friend. We went through hell together.::Cherie Blair: Oh, I thought you sent other people to do that.
[Now led by Gordon Brown, Labour have just won a fourth term in office - but with an absurdly small majority. Gordon rings Tony.]::Tony Blair: Gordon, my congratulations.::Gordon Brown: I am heading for a majority of two, for God's sake. Two!::Tony Blair: Well a majority's a majority.::Gordon Brown: It's going to be a bloody disaster.::Tony Blair: It's the historic fourth term, Gordon.::Gordon Brown: You are electoral death!::Tony Blair: I don't think you can blame *me* for what you call your ludicrously small majority.::Gordon Brown: You've held onto power for far too long, Tony.::Tony Blair: Oh really? Well quite frankly if I'd packed it in sooner you'd only have had more time to balls it up, wouldn't you?
[Tony is meeting the publisher of his memoirs who is very critical of the book and recommends a lot of changes to it.]::Publisher: I think the chapters on the Iraq War could be trimmed - the book would benefit and sales would benefit.::Tony Blair: You will not cut a word of those chapters. I did not take this country to war in order to be popular.::Publisher: [drily] Well you certainly succeeded there.::Tony Blair: [pauses for thought] I took this country to war because it was the right thing to do. It was the right thing for Britain and one day history will judge me. And it'll be the liberal journalists, the sneering intellectuals, the appeasers, the bloodless, spineless chattering classes of which you are obviously a member, those will be the ones found wanting, those'll be the ones in the dock of history, not me. Because if I'd listened to all the *moral* cowards, like you, then that murdering bastard Saddam Hussain would still be in power. So cut one word from those memoirs and, so help me, I'll take it away from you.::Publisher: Then you won't mind if it's so laughable and ridiculous and poorly-written that no-one wants to read it.
Cherie Blair: Here's that RCI information I was telling you about.::Tony Blair: RCI?::Cherie Blair: Rite of Christian Initiation.::Tony Blair: But I *am* Christian!::Cherie Blair: No, you're Church of England.
[Discussing Blair's autobiography]::Publisher: You 'feel the hand of God on your shoulder' no less than 29 times!::Tony Blair: Oh yes...::[He laughs]::Tony Blair: ...it was a bit more than that, actually.

The reporter's lover, a CIA man in Baghdad, pushes for progress on public works in Sumarra; he promotes cooperation with Rafeeq, an intellectual whom other Americans call an insurgent. Rafeeq is in danger. All roads lead to the village of Al Tawr. War at its most opaque: Iraqis call it "the situation."

While he was working all the time, he didnt notice that the hunch on his back started to grow. Bigger and bigger. And one day, when he went out for a walk, his nose almost touched the ground. Thats how big it was. And that same night he was working, working away with little clocks, and they suddenly stopped ticking and he looked up. And he saw, in the mirror, two little feathers coming out of his coat and he started growing. And he looked in the mirror and he saw that he had these two big wings. And all the clocks starting singing. And he opened the window, looked at the stars, and flew up in the sky.::Pili March: Then what happened to him?::Xavier March: He became an Angel.::Pili March: Will that happen to him?::Xavier March: Well.
