Eric has a few favorite Quotations:

Bill Clinton Wanted universal health care...he didn't get it. Bush 43 wanted social security reform and immigration reform...he didn't get it. "Most of the issues, if it isn't foreign policy, it's going to be decided by the congress. Foreign policy...that is the stuff of presidents."

-Bruce Herschensohn (former deputy special assistant to President Richard Nixon)

Callicles: When I see philosophy in a young boy, I approve of it; I think it's appropriate, and consider such a person a liberal one...But when I see an older man still engaging in philosophy and not giving it up, I think such a man by this time needs a flogging.

-Plato's Gorgias

Any man who is under 30, and is not a liberal, has not heart; and any man who is over 30, and is not a conservative, has no brains.

-Sir Winston Churchill

Let us ask ourselves; "What kind of people do we think we are?"

"We might come closer to balancing the Budget if all of us lived closer to the Commandments and the Golden Rule."

"General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization: Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"

-Ronald Reagan
