Guests: actor Bradley Whitford, Fmr. PM of Canada Kim Campbell, fmr. Gov. James Gilmore, Gen. Wesley Clark, and Sen. Mel Martinez.

On Democrats

"It's not that the Democrats don't have a message. We've got lots of messages and we've got lots of messengers. What we don't have is the pure forum to do that when we need to do it." – Gen. Wesley Clark

On Terrorism

"There's no conventional military solution to terrorism. If there were Israel would be the safest country in the world." – Bradley Whitford

On FEMA

"This agency worked well under Bill Clinton. It didn't work under Bush's father. It didn't work under Bush. And, you know, Republicans always say government doesn't work; it's inefficient. Yeah, the way you do it." – Bill Maher

On Security

"And all of the declarations after 9/11 about all the things that the government was going to do to try and protect Americans, I mean, they haven't been delivered. I mean, the systems are not in place; the ports are not any safer. And I think that that sense that people have, and they're now finally beginning to take on public figures because the press don't seem to be doing it, and the politicians don't seem to be doing it, I think, is a sign that people don't trust, and they can't trust. And the government has not won their trust." – Kim Campbell

On Immigration

"People talk about these people being here illegally, and so therefore they broke the law. But you know, we've had a system where everybody has been breaking the law. The government has been looking the other way and the employers are taking advantages of the fairly cheap labor they've had. And so it's a little unfair to thrust all the blame of illegality on the immigrants, because a lot of people have been playing the same game. And now, you know, the fact is that we need to find a way to make the system work and work legally." – Sen. Mel Martinez
