SOUNDBITE (English):  Nancy Pelosi, House of Representatives Democratic Leader: \u003cbr/\u003e\"Democrats have an unwavering commitment to ensure that America's armed forces remain the best trained, best led, best equipped force for peace the world has ever known.  Never before have we been more powerful militarily.  But even the most powerful nation in the history of the world must bring other nations to our side to meet common dangers. The President's policies do not reflect that.  He has pursued a go-it-alone foreign policy that leaves us isolated abroad and that steals resources we need for education and health care here at home. The President led us into the Iraq war on the basis of unproven assertions without evidence; he embraced a radical doctrine of pre-emptive war unprecedented in our history; and he failed to build a true international coalition. Therefore, American taxpayers are bearing almost all the cost -- a colossal $120 billion and rising.  More importantly, American troops are enduring almost all the casualties -- tragically, 500 killed and thousands more wounded.\"\u003cbr/\u003e3. Capitol Building at night\u003cbr/\u003e4. SOUNDBITE (English):  Nancy Pelosi, House of Representatives Democratic Leader:  \u003cbr/\u003e\"Instead of alienating our allies, let us work with them and international institutions so that together we can prevent the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and keep them out of the hands of terrorists. Instead of billions of dollars in no-bid contracts for politically-connected firms such as Halliburton, and an insistence on American dominance in Iraq, let us share the burden and responsibility with others, so that together we can end the sense of American occupation and bring troops home safely when their mission is completed. Instead of the diplomatic disengagement that almost destroyed the Middle East peace process and aggravated the danger posed by North Korea, let us seek to forge agreements and coalitions - so that, together with others, we can address challenges before they threaten the security of the world.\"\u003cbr/\u003e5. Capitol Building at night\u003cbr/\u003e6. SOUNDBITE (English):  Nancy Pelosi, House of Representatives Democratic Leader:   \u003cbr/\u003e\"We must remain focused on the greatest threat to the security of the United States - the clear and present danger of terrorism.  We know what we must do to protect America, but this administration is failing to meet the challenge. Democrats have a better way to ensure our homeland security. One hundred percent of containers coming into our ports or airports must be inspected.  Today, only 3 percent are inspected.  One hundred percent of chemical and nuclear plants in the United States must have high levels of security.  Today, the Bush Administration has tolerated a much lower standard.  One hundred percent communication in real time is needed for our police officers, firefighters, and all our first responders to prevent or respond to a terrorist attack.  Today, the technology is there, but the resources are not.   One hundred percent of the enriched uranium and other material for weapons of mass destruction must be secured.  Today, the Administration has refused to commit the resources necessary to prevent it from falling into the hands of terrorists. America will be far safer if we reduce the chances of a terrorist attack in one of our cities than if we diminish the civil liberties of our own people.\"\u003cbr/\u003e7. Pelosi and Daschle sitting together\u003cbr/\u003e8. SOUNDBITE (English): Tom Daschle, Senate Democratic Leader:\u003cbr/\u003e\"Our first challenge is to strengthen the economy -- the right way.  The true test of America's economic recovery is not measured simply in quarterly profit reports; it's measured in jobs.  The massive tax cuts that were supposed to spark an economic expansion have instead led to an economic exodus.  To make up for the three million private-sector jobs that have been lost on the president's watch, the economy would have to create 226 thousand jobs a month through the end of his term.  Last month, the economy created only 1,000 new jobs.  That's not good enough. America can't afford to keep rewarding the accumulation of wealth over the dignity of work. Instead of borrowing even more money to give more tax  breaks to companies so that they can export even more jobs, we propose tax cuts and policies that will strengthen our manufacturing sector and create good jobs at good wages here at home.  We can also show our patriotism while strengthening agriculture and rural America by labeling all food products with their country of origin.\"\u003cbr/\u003e9. Capitol Building at night\u003cbr/\u003e10. SOUNDBITE (English): Tom Daschle, Senate Democratic Leader:\u003cbr/\u003e\"Today, 43.6 million Americans  - almost all of them from working families - have no health insurance.  That's over 3.8 million more than when President Bush took office. Those Americans lucky enough to have health insurance have seen their premiums go up each of the last three years. The increase in premiums that middle-income families have seen over the past three years is larger than the four-year tax cut that they've been promised. This is an invisible tax increase on middle class families. Tonight, three years into his Administration, the President acknowledged that the rapidly rising cost of health care, and the increasing number of Americans with no health coverage, are problems.  But the tax cuts he proposed are not a solution. Tax cuts will do little to make health care more affordable or reduce the number of people without insurance, and they will weaken health coverage for those who now have it.\"\u003cbr/\u003e11. Pelosi and Daschle sitting together\u003cbr/\u003eDemocrats challenged the bright picture of America presented in President Bush's State of the Union address on Tuesday, saying it belied a darker reality of lost jobs, rising deficits and mounting casualties in Iraq.\u003cbr/\u003eIn the official Democratic response to Bush's speech, the top two Democrats in Congress said that the president wasn't doing enough to protect America from terrorists or to improve the economy.\u003cbr/\u003eThe House of Representatives Democratic Leader, Nancy Pelosi of California, criticised Bush's \"go-it-alone foreign policy that leaves us isolated abroad and that steals the resources we need for education and health care here at home.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSenate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle said, \"Instead of borrowing even more money to give more tax breaks to companies so that they can export even more jobs, we propose tax cuts and policies that will strengthen our manufacturing sector and create good jobs at good wages here at home.\"\u003cbr/\u003eBush, wrapping the themes of his re-election campaign in his State of the Union address, asserted that America is strengthening its economy and successfully combating terrorism. \u003cbr/\u003e\"We have not come all this way-through tragedy and trial and war-only to falter and leave our work unfinished,\" he said.\u003cbr/\u003eIn a stay-the-course appeal to a joint session of Congress, Bush said that the nation faced important challenges and choices.\u003cbr/\u003eHe said it was tempting but wrong to think that the danger of terrorist attacks had passed even though it has been more than two years since America was attacked.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex
