We know that this mad dog of the Middle East has a goal of a world revolution. (On Muammar Qaddafi of Libya)

The best view of big government is in the rearview mirror as we leave it behind.

. . . Government should do only those things the people cannot do for themselves.

Israel exists; it has a right to exist in peace behind secure and defensible borders; and it has a right to demand of its neighbors that they recognize those facts. I have personally followed and supported Israel's heroic struggle for survival, ever since the founding of the State of Israel 34 years ago. In the pre-1967 borders Israel was barely 10 miles wide at its narrowest point. The bulk of Israel's population lived within artillery range of hostile Arab armies. I am not about to ask Israel to live that way again.

For the average American, the message is clear. Liberalism is no longer the answer. It is the problem.

In some dim beginning, man created the institution of government as a convenience for himself. And, ever since that time, government has been doing its best to become an inconvenience.

Our liberty springs from and depends upon an abiding faith in God.
