The fellow has absolutely no principles."Money and gall" is all he has.

I am frankly sick and tired of the political preachers telling me as a citizen that if I want to be a moral person, I must believe in A, B, C, and D. Just who do they think they are? And from where do they presume to claim the right to dictate their moral beliefs to me?

We Americans understand freedom; we have earned it, we have lived for it, and we have died for it. This nation and its people are freedom's models in a searching world. We can be freedom's missionaries in a doubting world. The genius of the American system is that through freedom we have created extraordinary results from plain old ordinary people.

Sex and politics are a lot alike. You don't have to be good at them to enjoy them.

Government should stay the hell out of people's business.

My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
