E.J. Pipkin in MD Senate Debate


On Education: Take a hard look at high salaries at universities

The universities have got more six-figure jobs than I’ve ever seen in the private sector. We need to take a hard look at what those costs are.

On War & Peace: Fight the terrorists in Baghdad rather than in Baltimore

PIPKIN: I believe it’s important that we fight the terrorists in Baghdad, rather than in Bethesda or Baltimore or on the Bay Bridge.

MIKULSKI: What a poor civilian leader Pipkin has turned out to be, to either help Bush or support our troops. He didn’t have a plan for the war and he certainly didn’t have a plan for peace.

On War & Peace: Give the President the benefit of the doubt to fight terror

When the president of the US comes to you and says he or she needs to take action against terrorism, you need to give them the benefit of the doubt. You don’t play politics with that decision.
