Interior Secretary - Ken Salazar
? "He is a moonfaced fellow whose modest demeanor belies his reputation as an ecumenical annoyer of special-interest groups."
?TIME, Jan. 19, 2007
? "Nothing in his record suggests he's an ideologue. Here's a man who understands the issues, is open-minded and can see at least two sides of an issue."
?Luke Popovich, spokesman for the National Mining Association, New York Times, Dec. 18, 2008
? "Mr. Salazar's most urgent task will be to remove the influence of politics and ideology from decisions that are best left to science."
?New York Times editorial, Dec. 17, 2008
Quotes by:
? "We need to be honest with ourselves and the American people about our energy future. We simply cannot drill our way to energy independence."
?In a speech on the U.S. Senate floor, June 10, 2008
? "The America where I grew up is vanishing today, left behind by a Washington, D.C., that has lost touch with what is important to the people of the heartland. I fear that rural Colorado, like the rest of rural America, has become 'the Forgotten America.'"
?In his first speech to the Senate, March 2, 2005
? "From my point of view, they are the antichrist of the world."
?To a Colorado Springs television station in April 2006, about James Dobson's Focus on the Family group. He later said, "I regret having used that term. I meant to say this approach was un-Christian, meaning self-serving and selfish."
? "I've been taunted, called names ? from dirty Mexican to lots of other names ? as I was growing up, and even now as a United States Senator. To have that personal experience in having gone through that kind of discrimination, it helps in terms of informing the debate and bringing a certain sense of reality to some of the issues we are dealing with on a national level."
