I made 50 million bucks yesterday. That's a flameout I could get used to.

Economics is half psychology and half Grade Three arithmetic, and the U.S. does not now have either half right.

I always keep a firewall between my own travails and my perception of public-policy issues; otherwise I would retain no credibility as a commentator.

For decades, I have been a militant anti-declinist in terms of America's place in the world.

Watergate enabled the Democrats to cut off all aid to South Vietnam and ensure American defeat in a war their party entered and had effectively lost, before Nixon salvaged a non-Communist South Vietnam while effecting a complete American withdrawal.

Nixon's full term was one of the most successful in U.S. history, which is why he was re-elected by the largest plurality in the country's history.

Rupert Murdoch is probably the most successful media proprietor and operator in history.
