10 QUOTES WITH «ACCUSING»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word accusing.
1
Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf
Blair... is accusing us of executing British soldiers. We want to tell him that we have not executed anybody. They are either killed in battle, most of them get killed because they are cowards anyway, the rest they just get captured.
2
Joe Arpaio
When we go to court, they are going to have to come up with all the evidence where they are accusing me and my dedicated deputies of racial profiling. It's always easy to throw the race card in there and that's what they're doing in Washington today, that they're concerned about racial profiling.
3
Frank Carson
I am accusing him of stealing my best material, he was a very funny man.
4
Ann Coulter
If a university official's letter accusing a speaker of having a proclivity to commit speech crimes before she's given the speech - which then leads to Facebook postings demanding that Ann Coulter be hurt, a massive riot and a police-ordered cancellation of the speech - is not hate speech, then there is no such thing as hate speech.
5
Khaled Hosseini
In many parts of the world, a man's accusing finger always finds a woman. But I think we need women to solve the problems that men create.
6
Leonard Lauder
If tomorrow all of America were to become paternalistic, we would beat the Japanese every day of the week. I think that the concept of accusing someone of running a paternalistic company, that's not an accusation. One should compliment someone on that.
7
David Limbaugh
I am neither accusing President Obama of having committed high crimes and misdemeanors nor advocating his impeachment.
8
Nicolas Maduro
Similar questions were posed to Allende as to me. Allende was told that he blamed everything on a conspiracy, on the economic crisis, that he blamed the high inflation that sabotaged him on the United States, and that he was frequently accusing the little lambs of Nixon and Kissinger of a coup. But everything became known later.
9
Benjamin Netanyahu
I often hear them accuse Israel of Judaizing Jerusalem. That's like accusing America of Americanizing Washington, or the British of Anglicizing London. You know why we're called 'Jews'? Because we come from Judea.
10
Clare Short
People have accused me of being in favor of globalization. This is equivalent to accusing me of being in favor of the sun rising in the morning.
