“Welfare's purpose should be to eliminate, as far as possible, the need for its own existence.” Ronald Reagan

“The proscribing any citizen as unworthy the public confidence, by laying upon him an incapacity of being called to offices of trust as emolument, unless he professes or renounces this or that religious opinion, tends to corrupt  the principles of that very religion it is meant to encourage, by bribing with a monopoly of worldly honors and emoluments, those who will externally profess and conform to it.”  Thomas Jefferson 

“Freedom is the right to question and change the established way of doing things. It is the continuous revolution of the marketplace. It is the understanding that allows to recognize shortcomings and seek solutions.” Ronald Reagan

“If you're working to make the playing field fair and level, you're working for the wrong reasons. Work to take the opportunities that arise and use your individual talents to excel at those opportunities.” Rush Limbaugh

“The first requisite of a good citizen in this republic of ours is that he shall be able and willing to pull his own weight." Theodore Roosevelt

"The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life."  Theodore Roosevelt

“Will some reporter, or some Republican on the Sunday shows, please ask why tax cuts raid the non-existent Social Security Trust Fund but all the Democrats' new spending doesn't? Will someone please ask that?"  Rush Limbaugh

If an ecomic recovery happens, the Democrats are S.O.L., politically.  Now, what does that tell you about their politics and their economics?  Rush Limbaugh

"The last thing they [the democrats] want is a revitalized economy now.  I'm not saying the Democrats don't want a strong economy.  Don't misunderstand.  They just don't want it now."  Rush Limbaugh     

“Religion is a subject on which I have ever been most scrupulously reserved. I have considered it as a matter between every man and his Maker, in which no other, and far less the public had a right to intermeddle.” Thomas Jefferson

"If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very best I know how - the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what's said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference." Abraham Lincoln

"Liberals always want to make poor people comfortable in Poverty" Shannon Reeves

“No nation ever taxed itself into prosperity.” Rush Limbaugh

“Liberal Democrats are inexorably opposed to tax cuts, because tax cuts give people more power, and take away from the role of government.  Rush Limbaugh

"A government that is big enough to give you all you want is big enough to take it all away." Barry Goldwater

"Are you willing to spend time studying the issues, making yourself aware, and then conveying that information to family and friends? Will you resist the temptation to get a government handout for your community? Realize that the doctor's fight against socialized medicine is your fight. We can't socialize the doctors without socializing the patients. Recognize that government invasion of public power is eventually an assault upon your own business. If some among you fear taking a stand because you are afraid of reprisals from customers, clients, or even government, recognize that you are just feeding the crocodile hoping he'll eat you last." Ronald Reagan

“You could afford your house without the government if it weren’t for the government.”  Rush Limbaugh

"The Democrats may remember their lines, but how quickly they forget the lessons of the past.  I have witnessed five major wars in my lifetime, and I knowhow swiftly storm clouds can gather on a peaceful horizon.  The next time a Saddam Hussein takes over Kuwait, or North Korea brandishes a nuclear weapon, will we be ready to respond? In the end, it all comes down to leaders.” Ronald Reagan

"The old solution, the old way, was to think that public money alone could end these problems..." "...We know what works: Freedom works. We know what's right: Freedom is right. We know how to secure a more just and prosperous life for man on Earth: through free markets, free speech, free elections, and the exercise of free will unhampered by the state." George H.W. Bush

"...men, enjoying in ease and security the full fruits of their own industry, enlisted by all their interests on the side of law and order, habituated to think for themselves, and to follow their reason as their guide, would be more easily and safely governed than with minds nourished in error, and vitiated and debased...by ignorance, indigence and oppression." Thomas Jefferson

"To liberal fundamentalists, the answer to all problems is higher taxes. The very thought of cutting spending is taboo to them.”  Thomas Sowell

“Yet any time you and I question the schemes of the do-gooders, we're denounced as being opposed to their humanitarian goals. It seems impossible to legitimately debate their solutions with the assumption that all of us share the desire to help the less fortunate. They tell us we're always "against," never "for" anything.” Ronald Reagan

"We who live in free market societies believe that growth, prosperity and ultimately human fulfillment, are created from the bottom up, not the government down. Only when the human spirit is allowed to invent and create, only when individuals are given a personal stake in deciding economic policies and benefitting from their success -- only then can societies remain economically alive, dynamic, progressive, and free. Trust the people. This is the one irrefutable lesson of the entire postwar period contradicting the notion that rigid government controls are essential to economic development." Ronald Reagan

"Am I the only one who has noticed the same people who complained that we didn't 'connect the dots' prior to 9-11, are now complaining that we connected the dots in Iraq?"  Rush Limbaugh
