Political Quotes

“the President said many good things in his speech last night, particularly about the need to reform our welfare system and to crack down on violent crime. The President is very good about giving speeches with which almost everyone agrees. The problem is that his actions seldom ever come close to matching his words. For instance, he says he is against crime and who isn't, but then he appoints some of the most liberal, soft-on-crime judges this country has ever seen to our Nation's highest courts. The prime example of this was choosing a person who was the chief lawyer for the ACLU for 8 years as his first appointment to the Supreme Court. In addition, the President still clings to the out-of-date, discredited belief that the Federal Government can solve all our problems. There is a clear majority today that knows the Federal Government really does little more than help those who work for it. They know that Government cannot give us anything without first taking something from us. They want the cost and size of the Federal Government decreased so that they have more money left to spend on themselves and their families. Unfortunately, the President is taking us exactly in the opposite direction, toward a much bigger and much more expensive Government.”
