“Fear & complacency allow power to accumulate & liberty & privacy to suffer.”

I would introduce and support legislation to send Roe v. Wade back to the states.

I say the phone records of law abiding citizens are none of their damn business!

We have to think before we act.

The power to tax and spend is restricted by the enumerated powers.

Toppling secular dictators in the Middle East has only led to chaos and the rise of radical Islam.

There comes a time, there comes a time in the history of nations when fear and complacency allow power to accumulate and liberty and privacy to suffer. That time is now and I will not let the Patriot Act, the most unpatriotic of acts go unchallenged.

My great grandfather, like many, came to this country in search of the American Dream.

I’ve heard of many tragic cases of walking, talking normal children who wound up with profound mental disorders after vaccines.

Congress shall pass no law that exempts themselves!

The Democrats promised equalizing outcomes through unlimited federal assistance while Republicans offered something that seemed less tangible – the promise of equalizing opportunity through free markets.

You can not be a conservative if you’re going to keep promoting new programs that you’re not going to pay for.

The history of African-American repression in this country rose from government-sanctioned racism. Jim Crow laws were a product of bigoted state and local governments.

You know, when Republicans were in charge, we doubled the debt. But, now, our concern is the Democrats are in charge and they’re tripling the debt. So, really, our concern is that we want smaller government.

We are borrowing $40,000 per second.

You can’t have it both ways. You can’t tell me that you’re taxed enough already, and that you want constitutional government and then in the next breath say, ‘Bring me home some bacon.’ The pig has been picked clean.

We must always embrace individual liberty and enforce the constitutional rights of all Americans-rich and poor, immigrant and native, black and white.

The real democratic American idea is, not that every man shall be on a level with every other man, but that every man shall have liberty to be what God made him, without hindrance.

You can only protect your liberties in this world by protecting the other man’s freedom.

Nelson Mandela, a better man, not a bitter man, made our world a better place in which to live. His life and leadership exemplify the highest courage, dignity, and dedication to human liberation.

You cannot tear up ancient rootages and safely plant the tree of liberty in soil that is not native to it.

The liberty to make our laws does not give us the freedom nor the license to break our laws!

I have always in my own thought summed up individual liberty, and business liberty, and every other kind of liberty, in the phrase that is common in the sporting world, ‘A free field and no favor.’

Liberty is the most jealous and exacting mistress that can beguile the brain and soul of man.

The history of liberty is a history of resistance.
