COMMON SENSE
When you're 20, if you're not a Liberal, you have no heart.
When you're 40, if you're not a Conservative, you have no brain.
-- Winston Churchill
Liberals -- More Taxes, More Government, Less Liberty.

There is only one way to kill capitalism ... by taxes, taxes, and more taxes.
-- Karl Marx
Socialized medicine is the keystone to the arch of the Socialist State.
-- Vladimar Lenin
The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.
-- Margaret Thatcher
There are those, of course, who claim we must give up freedom in exchange for economic progress. Well, pardon me, but anyone trying to sell you that line is no better than a three-card-trick man. One thing becoming more clear every day is that freedom and progress go hand in hand. Throughout the developing world, people are rejecting socialism because they see that it doesn't empower people, it impoverishes them.
-- Ronald Reagan
There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root.
-- Henry David Thoreau
He who does not punish evil, commands it to be done.

When big government acts like Santa Claus and gives away my money to people who won’t work, they thank big government, they don’t thank me.
A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have.
-- Thomas Jefferson
When the people fear the government - that is tyranny.
When the government fears the people - that is liberty.
-- Thomas Jefferson
You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
-- Dr. Adrian Rogers
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until he voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy always followed by dictatorship.
-- Professor Alexander Tyler - This was written nearly 200 years ago while our 13 original colonies were still a part of Great Britain. In fact, Tyler was at the time writing about the fall of the Athenian Republic over 2,000 years earlier.
When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.
-- Benjamin Franklin
"I am for doing good to the poor, but ... I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it."
-- Benjamin Franklin
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
-- C. S. Lewis
Were we directed from Washington when to sow, and when to reap, we should soon want bread.
-- Thomas Jefferson
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.
-- Abraham Lincoln
All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.
-- Edmond Burke
Politicians and con-men know that their job is not to convince skeptics but to enable the gullible to continue to believe what they want to believe.
Fear is the motivator, money is the means and control is the end. A proper skeptic always keeps these things in mind.
The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism', they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened. I no longer need to run as a presidential candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrats have adopted our platform. -- Norman Thomas
Bible Welfare System: 2 Thessalonians 3:10, "If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat."
1 Timothy 5:8

With 20,000 gun laws on the books, what part of "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" don't they understand?"
A gun in the hand is better than a 911 operator on the phone.
When seconds count, the police are only 5 minutes away.
God made man. Colonel Colt made them equal.
A gun is the only way that a 100-pound girl is equal to a 300-pound guy.
“Gun Free Zones" are not "Criminal Free Zones”
A Conservative is a Liberal who had a brother-in-law and his family move in to stay with him.

10% National Retail Sales Tax -- No Deductions, No Exemptions, No Exceptions, No Social Engineering, No IRS, No Complicated Tax Code, No Withholding, No Audits, No Tax Attorneys, No Big Brother.

Sodomites and Sodomettes are not Gay, they're Perverts.
Life begins at conception. A little baby is no longer just another part of its mother’s tissue. At the moment of conception, a little baby is a little person who has its own unique DNA. Once that fertilized egg multiplies from one cell to two cells, it becomes a new person with a DNA that is unique to this world. A little baby has a God-given, inalienable right to life. At conception, the mother’s relationship to that new little person who is growing inside her body must change. A mother has a stewardship (management of another person’s property entrusted to their care by the Lord) responsibility to protect that tiny, new life. It’s the same concept as the fiduciary relationship that your financial advisor has to you. If he acts irresponsibly … if he makes any decisions that are against your best interests, he can be prosecuted. God knew that new little person before He created the heavens and the earth.
Jeremiah 1:5
5. "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;
1,000 Vietnams are equal to the 52 million innocent babies who have been murdered in the United States at the rate of over 1,500,000 every year for 37 years since the January 22, 1973 Roe vs. Wade Supreme Court decision that made abortion legal.
Why does everyone who is pro-choice always choose death?
If the government cannot run the Post Office, DMV, Amtrak, Veteran’s Hospitals, Social Security, Medicare, and our educational system, why put them in charge of our health care?
If you think that health insurance is expensive now, just wait until it's free!
Universal Health Care means mandatory health care rationing.
