I would say that I'm pretty mainstream.

Our forefathers would think it's time for a revolution. This is why they revolted in the first place... They revolted against much more mild oppression.

There was a time when a willingness to criticize one's own government when it was wrong was the very definition of patriotism.

I'm convinced that you never have to give up liberties to be safe. I think you're less safe when you give up your liberties.

It is true that liberty is not free, nor is it easy. But tyranny - even varying degrees of it - is much more difficult, and much more expensive. The time has come to rein in the federal government, put it on a crash diet, and let the people keep their money and their liberty.

1913 wasn't a very good year. 1913 gave us the income tax, the 16th amendment and the IRS.

The cost in terms of liberties lost and the unnecessary exposure to terrorism are difficult to determine, but in time it will become apparent to all of us that foreign interventionism is of no benefit to American citizens, but is instead a threat to our liberties.
