war thinking issues
And just think, fellow Southrons, what kind of a Confederate nation we could have, if after independence, politicians abandoned equivocation and spoke honestly and firmly on all issues? If they were to do their duty to God, nation, and people, there would be virtually no need for any form of federal litigation.
government cotton way
If we could manage our own finances the way the Congress does the nation's, we'd all be living in high cotton and eating high on the hog.
years class voice
Some years ago an excellent professor of economics told his class in his gravelly voice, 'If you pay me $50,000 a year to solve a problem, I damned sure ain't going to solve it.'
political politician
Experience to a politician is like experience to a prostitute - not much to recommend them.
war government ignorant
We...are not really free if we can't control our own government and its policies. And we will never do that if we remain ignorant.
gun government opposites
A government that intended to protect the liberty of the people would not disarm them. A government planning the opposite most certainly and logically would disarm them. And so it has been in this century. Check out the history of Germany, the Soviet Union, Cuba, China and Cambodia.
people opinion polls
[Y]ou cannot determine either the truth or the right or wrong of anything with a poll. You can only tabulate people's opinions.
men want congress
Congress seems to want to cure every ill known to man except unconstitutional government and high taxes.
selfish army circles
If you look at Washington, you see permanently camped on the banks of the Potomac spread around in concentric circles an army representing thousands of selfish interests. The sole purpose of their presence is to plunder, by hook or crook, the public treasury for the benefit of their particular people or corporations.
gun crowds want
Americans who value freedom had better be more concerned about the gun control crowd than the criminals. The criminals want your money. The Neo-Totalitarians want your freedom.
differences ignorant reason
Reason and truth have rarely prevailed against demagoguery when the audience is too ignorant to tell the difference.
war truth-is imperialism
The truth is that neither British nor American imperialism was or is idealistic. It has always been driven by economic or strategic interests.
father circles people
Our Founding Fathers were proud that Americans were trusted with arms because they knew that only when people are armed could they truly be thought of as free citizens. And that's where the circle closes. Those who want to deprive you of your right to keep and bear arms are intending to deprive you of your freedom, period. Like the criminals their policies encourage, these elitists know that it is always best to disarm victims before you enslave them.
believe mean gun
If you believe in the right to life, then you must believe in the right to have the means to defend that life.
