In the last energy bill they finally gave a 25 percent tax credit for the purchase of new solar equipment and other clean energy equipment. I tried for three years to pass that as president and could not do so. So I am thrilled that it passed. This will mean that a lot of these products are now far more cost effective and will off a lot sooner than they would before.

I don't mind Muslims all over the world being upset about this I don't mind the demonstrations, but this is not the time to burn bridges, it is the time to build them. This is an enormous opportunity because I can tell you that most people who are not Muslims are horrified that this misunderstanding has occurred, and don't want violence to come out of this, but want greater understanding.
Bill Clinton
I think that the country needs a debate that's not a screaming match. . . . And I think too many times we have these arguments on these talk shows where they're trying to get ratings by generating heat, when we ought to be trying to generate more light.
