Anti-Government

- The…problem in acknowledging good news - not just for the press but for the public - is that it has come to feel partisan, like an endorsement of whoever occupies the White House.
- You know what, it really is time for a change. You deceived us when you went to Obama and Pelosi to get your votes for the CrOmnibus. You said you’d fight amnesty tooth and nail - you didn’t. You funded it! And then you took the only hostage that Obama would like for us to shoot. It was a terrible strategy, and it follows a number of years of broken promises. It’s time for a change.
- The decision…to announce the [Ferguson] decision at 8:30 p.m. CT was foolish and dangerous. Here's the thing about that time of night: it's dark. Anyone – anyone! - should have known the decision in the Brown case would have been controversial. A decision not to indict, which was always possible, even likely, would have been sure to attract protests, even violence. Crowd control is always more difficult in the dark.
- The Obama administration is now in the market for their fourth secretary of defense. When the president goes through three secretaries, he should ask, ‘Is it them, or is it me?’
- We want our country to go in a conservative direction, where the patients have the power; where we have no shame in using American natural resources to create better jobs for working families; where we, the people, have the power and not the federal government.
- I think we may need to call [Obamacare] something in the future different, but it is working…Obamacare, no question, has a very bad brand that has been driven intentionally by a lot of misinformation and a lot of paid advertising.
- There’s a prevailing idea that there’s something ethically wrong with being poor, and that America’s run according to Christian values. But when people are practicing genuine Christian values, they themselves are directly prosecuted…Let’s bear in mind that America just had midterm elections where $4 billion was spent on campaigning — [campaigning] is just telling you that something’s good. But feeding the homeless? That’s illegal.
- Boko Haram particularly targets schools because they are soft targets. And they represent everything the group is against - Western education, lifestyle and civilization.
- In the middle of a crisis, pulling Dr. Frieden away from the work he needs to do so Congress members could all make their little press statements -- it was shameful.
- I would rather die than be in the United States Senate. I would be bored to death. Could you imagine me, banging around that chamber with 99 other people, asking for a motion on the amendment in the subcommittee? Forget it…You'd watch me just walk out and walk right into the Potomac River and drown. That would be it.
- I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m proud of my career and the job I did for this country.
- We are not seeking revolution. We just want democracy!
