The interests of the United States are better served by demanding reform and seeing that reform takes place than by removing our influence from the UN.
The freedoms and prosperity we enjoy in America are thanks to the brave men and women who have served in our armed forces.

We try not to have many investing ‘rules,’ but there is one that has served us well: If we decide we were wrong about something, in terms of why we did it, we exit, period.
America’s Veterans have served their country with the belief that democracy and freedom are ideals to be upheld around the world.
Trust your instincts: If your instincts have always served you well, trust them and follow them.
The right to strike is one of the most important safeguards working people have in this country. It’s a weapon of last resort that has served throughout history as a bargaining tool which allows unions to push for recognition of ordinary workers’ rights to be paid fairly and treated with dignity.
I was honored to have served in the Army for my country. I was at Anzio during WWII, and it makes you realize how very precious life is.
There’s no deadline that a movie has to be made by. We have to believe that we have served the responsibility, however long it takes us to get to that point.
I served two tours of duty in Vietnam. I won the Bronze Star. I won the Purple Heart.
Melissa Biggs Bradley spent a decade as Travel Editor of ‘Town & Country,’ and later served as the founding editor of ‘Town & Country Travel.’ She then launched Indagare Souk, an online marketplace of global treasures.
I wrote a lot of lyrics in prison, but they’d all be like, ‘Crawls upon the shoulders, hatred in the eyes.’ I wrote about 50 songs in there that were all about jail. I’ve come out and thought, ‘I’ve only served eight weeks; I can’t really write a concept album about jail.’
My mother would organize huge parties for my elementary school classmates. To prepare, she would go back to the bakery in her old neighborhood of Inwood and get special shamrock cookies. Hawaiian Punch was served and we had shamrock napkins. It was a lot of fun.
I served two tours in Iraq, in the Marine Corps.
Given my earlier experience as the longest served CM of the erstwhile undivided A.P., I focused on choosing right people in the right place with clear priorities in the departments that were vital to attract large-scale investments into the state.
I had a hard time growing up, and boxing kind of served as my second family.
The fact that the Bush administration, and those in Europe who have followed its 9/11-inspired agenda, somehow believe that the future of the world is being played out in the Middle East and Central Asia rather than East Asia has only served to accelerate China’s rise and the U.S.’s decline.
One Indian-inspired favourite of mine is mashed potato mixed with lemon juice, breadcrumbs, coriander and chilli, shaped into patties, fried and served with chutney and yoghurt.
My parents, fleeing a repressive regime in the Dominican Republic, were embraced by this country and taught us to love it in return. After my father served proudly in the U.S. Army, they settled in Buffalo, N.Y., and were able to live the American Dream.
Between 1965 and 1980, my mother, Frances Junod, served cutlets of pale flesh – mostly veal and chicken, though sometimes pork – to my father, my brother and sister, and me at least twice a week.
No mortal man has ever served at the same time his passions and his best interests.
I joined the Army in 1965 and served with the 11th Hussars, which I loved. The regiment was so relaxed – a salute was more like a friendly wave.
I have many friends and family members who have served (or are currently serving) in our nation’s Armed Forces. I have such a profound respect for what they do day in and day out.
I believe that homosexual acts between individuals are immoral and that we should not condone immoral acts. I do not believe that the Armed Forces of the United States are well served by a saying through our policies that it’s OK to be immoral in any way.
The selflessness and service of the veterans I have met and served with are the living embodiment of what America and American values mean to me.
The Confederations Cup is interesting. It served Spain very well to take part and then go on to win the 2010 World Cup. We knew the stadiums, the atmosphere, the conditions and also the difficulties of a tournament which simulated the World Cup format.
Celebrity never really served me that well; it serves other people well.
At home, Mom served us turkey breakfast links that she got at the health-food store. But whenever we went out for breakfast, she let my brothers and me order pork sausages (though, inexplicably, not bacon).
We served on the editorial board of a literary monthly called Face in 1968 and 1969. He was a young writer, and I was also interested in broad cultural issues. We agreed on all major issues and became friends.
In the late 1960s, Ontario Airport was a throwback to a bygone era. Located 35 miles east of downtown Los Angeles, the airport served only two carriers, Western and Bonanza. Passengers could catch regional flights to San Francisco, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Phoenix and Los Angeles, and that was about it.
Hawaii’s own Patsy Mink served as the first congresswoman of color and first Asian American woman in the House; she later sought the Democratic Party presidential nomination.
My first direct encounter with the military was when I joined ROTC as a graduate student, although my father, who served in the U.S. Marine Corps, can trace the military service in our family all the way back to the Revolutionary War.
When I meet people, a lot of people know me from different things whether it be when I was in the group or my solo stuff or ‘You Got Served’ or movies, it’s really interesting that that film is a part of history. That’s nuts.
‘Dragnet’ (the 1951 original, transferred nearly intact from radio) served as a veritable template for all cop shows to come.
Restoring the right to vote to individuals who have served their term in prison is also a common-sense public safety measure.
News organisations that have been around a while have a lot of traditions and ways of doing things that may have served them for many years but perhaps make them less flexible in the digital era. As an entrepreneur, it just makes more sense to start something new.
After leaving school, I got a job in a department store not dissimilar to Grace Bros in ‘Are You Being Served?’
People craved orientation. It was a very basic primal need. So we could create a boundary that served lots of functional purposes and especially create boundaries that people would camp along.
If dinner needs to be served to the father, if clothes need to be ironed, parents ask the girl to do it, not the boy. Why? Equality needs to begin at home.
Competition is good and has served us well.
I remember eating in school in the years after the Second World War. Most of my friends had miserable portions of Spam with an inedible, glutinous pudding served in containers we called ‘coffins.’ As a vegetarian, I had a lump of loathsome cheese and some bread.
When Hillary served as Secretary of State, I watched her partner with President Obama to restore our country’s reputation around the world.
There’s never been a doctor who served many patients who, despite their best efforts, did not lose some of them to death. But they understood that was part of life itself.
I went to war for this country. I served overseas for this country.
Armed Forces Day on May 21, and the Memorial Day weekend that follows, is a time to honor, remember and recognize those who serve and have served our country, as well as those who have died in service. As we reflect, let’s not forget the many sacrifices made at home as well in support of our men and women in uniform.
I’ve worked since taking a newspaper route at age 9 and served as a prosecutor, a planning commissioner, a city councilman, and a congressman to pay back some of what my community and nation gave me.
It’s been interesting for me because when I served in government before, I served in the White House. This time, I ended up serving in an agency, and it just made me respect and admire how much happens and that happens every day with people who don’t even know all the work that’s going on.
I know I was an alcoholic because I was preoccupied whether alcohol was going to be served or not.

Coffee on an airplane always smells bad. Whenever it is served, suddenly the whole cabin stinks of it.
I’m having everything. I’m a vegetarian, too. But in my mother’s house, I eat whatever I’m served.
I have voted to make tough decisions in budgetary times, I’ve served on two recessionary budgets, my opponent has never served on any a budget committee where there was less money to spend than the year before.
I think a pastor used to be viewed as the one-stop ministry shop. The pastor served on every committee, volunteered at every event, and made all the hospital visits. I think that is changing and I think that is healthy. Both for the pastor and the congregation.
