We need more


After reflecting on the worthless wretches who run this country a few moments with someone who really had a political brain is a refreshing tonic. Several more Churchill quotes from the hundreds available are a good antidote to Helen. These aimed particuarly at her odious view of the world.

Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot, others as a cow to be milked, but few are those who see it as a sturdy horse pulling the wagon.


The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.


We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

If you have ten thousand regulations, you destroy all respect for the law.

Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.

I wouldn't expect Keith Locke or damned Bradford to be able to even spell half the words in that lot.
