This Bush administration has a growing credibility gap, maybe even a credibility chasm, on environmental policy. The President has lost the trust of the American people when it comes to the environment.

It's funny; we never had anything like credibility. Even though we all have some sort of punk-rock background, but so what? I really don't care about that. What's credibility anyway? Who has credibility?

I'm really fed up with all the credibility talk. A lot of times it seems to be more important than the music. Well, I guess for a lot of people it actually is. We don't care for credibility.

Foreign policy will require a strategic agility that, whenever possible, gets ahead of problems, strengthens U.S. security and alliances, and promotes American interests and credibility.

President Bush is supporting Arnold but a lot of Republicans are not, because he is actually quite liberal. Karl Rove said if his father wasn't a Nazi, he wouldn't have any credibility with conservatives at all.

Those are just some of the people whom we interviewed in the documentary, but that should provide you with a good sense of the credibility of the individuals who bolster the case that this administration lied us into a war.

The Obama administration has now taken exactly the same position as the Bush administration. I don't see how you can keep people from knowing who visits the White House and adhere to a policy of openness and transparency.

President Bush says he is concerned about the Iraqi people, but if Iraqi people are dying in numbers, then American policy will be challenged very strongly.

I believe the American people spoke loud and clear to the Bush Administration in yesterday's election that they disapprove of the current direction in the war in Iraq. As a result, the President wasted no time in dumping Secretary Rumsfeld.

How I Learned To Get Up
I hope to never be seen a fool,
To stand in someone's way.
With a moving beyond my steps,
To declare their own success.
Or profess what I know,
What is ahead for them.
I am in no position to do that.
Although and I must say this,
If I do see opposition coming their way...
I will point that out.
And IF I have not achieved credibility,
To have their ears listening...
By all means why should I stand in the way,
Right?
If someone wants the experience,
Of feeling the sensation of being crushed...
Who am I to try to prevent that feeling?
That's how I learned to get up!
I am more than understanding,
That people have to acquire their own credibility.
However to them it comes.
Bumps bruises and an occasional embittered,
Quip.
As I age I seem to grow empathetic to it all.

Actually, today I had to defend the Bush Administration in France again. They refuse to accept, because of their political ideology, that he has actually done more than any American President for Africa. But it's empirically so.

The Times' new credibility committee report that was issued on Monday very specifically said they will be putting in a policy that reporters must get permission from their department heads to appear on television, which I think is a really good thing.

When Bush first got elected, the very first time there was talk of going to war with Iraq, the mainstream media gave his position total credibility. I didn't get it then, and I don't get it now.
You may be right that people say: 'You know what, we had Obama. He was inexperienced. The guy had great rhetoric, sounded good, looked good, but has turned out to be an utter disaster. I want someone where I have confidence and credibility that they're up to the job and that I can trust what they tell me.'
American credibility in the war on terrorism depends on a strong stand against all terrorist acts, whether committed by foe or friend.

I wish it were simply a nightmare, but I think that any reasonable person watching American politics would come to the conclusion that a second Bush administration would in fact incorporate a more radicalized version of what we've seen in the first administration.

But I believe that the DPKO at this time was very much involved with American administration and was acting, taking on consideration the demand or the recommendation of the American administration. American administration was very powerful.

A Missed Attention Given
It becomes exceedingly difficult,
With an increasing suspicion...
To trust or believe in someone hiding,
From behind ever changing masks.
Where is the credibility?
Or the prospects of it existing?
People like this anticipate a patience given.
With yet another declaration of an emergency exclaimed,
When in actuality...
A missed attention given to them is wished,
With a dropping of everything to cater to their whims...
Again!

I cite these events because I think they underline two very disturbing phenomena - the loss of U.S. international credibility, the growing U.S. international isolation.
