I'm Taylor, I'm 11 and I want a record deal.
I think a loaded weapon aboard an airplane, whether its in the cargo section or in your overhead baggage, is a security issue.
Nobody in the city of Los Angeles knows how to catch an alligator,. . . We have no experience in recreation and parks, the zoo or animal control.
I oppose U. S. military intervention in Iraq. I believe that we should not send troops or engage in air strikes-our nation's military involvement needs to be over. The United States has already spent billions of dollars in Iraq while our nation has endured a crumbling infrastructure, cuts to our social programs, a lack of investment in job training and creation, and sadly, a failure to take care of our veterans. Let's focus our resources at home. Over 4000 men and women have sacrificed their lives for Iraq. That is enough.
A lot of people dont understand how cargo coming into our ports matters, not just to Southern California but to every single congressional district. I want to educate on that issue.
I was born into public service.
I think my mom and dad knew from the very beginning that I was destined to go into public service.

[Chamber of Reflection off of Salad Days]I think it's probably that one. There's no guitar on that song, I've never recorded a song with absolutely no guitar, which is interesting. The idea behind it, well it's a Free Mason reference because before they become Free Mason's they had to go into this room called the Chamber of Reflection where they think about the life they brought with them, the life they've lived up until this point and all their wrong and right doings. And that's basically what I did with this album.
