Living with the liberals, you get to hear their arguments, fight with them all the time. Keeps me alert.

A thousand restaurants close every month. They re-open, and that's good for America. Nobody's rescuing them. They employ people, too. If we let them go bankrupt, the factories don't go away, the creative people don't go away. They get employed more productively by others.

'Live and let life' used to be a noble approach to life. Now you're considered compassionate if you demand that government impose your preferences on others.

You can either invade a country or leave them alone and trade with them. When goods cross borders, armies don't.
