We need to build a beautiful granite and bronze monument in our nation's capital to honor American heroes, unsung American heroes. And those unsung American heroes are the rich.

I worked with these liberal elites for 28 years at CBS News, and they were always throwing around the term 'white trash,' by which they meant poor southerners who didn't go to Harvard. I'm not sure why that makes them trash.

There's a kind of journalistic narcissism that New York-based journalists are guilty of.

Try to imagine an America without rich people. Rich people contribute a lot to this country.

I said that liberals think people who live in the middle of the country are a bunch of jerks, and obviously all liberals don't think that. But I will tell you what, an awful lot of liberal elites think that.

I didn't say one negative word about poor people or about middle-class people or anything else. All I said was that the rich deserve our gratitude.
