We...are not really free if we can't control our own government and its policies. And we will never do that if we remain ignorant.

Americans, both politicians and voters, may have become corrupted by big government beyond redemption. A virtuous government requires a virtuous people. A frugal government requires a self-reliant people. A free country requires people who value liberty more than money.

It is a foolish man who believes that the status quo can be maintained indefinitely.

Americans who value freedom had better be more concerned about the gun control crowd than the criminals. The criminals want your money. The Neo-Totalitarians want your freedom.

If malice or envy were tangible and had a shape, it would be the shape of a boomerang.

Here's your enemy for this week, the government says. And some gullible Americans click their heels and salute - often without knowing who or even where the enemy of the week is.

Powers once assumed are never relinquished, just as bureaucracies, once created, never die.
