• The job of conservatives is to keep the Republican Party driving on the right-hand side of the road. There are many ways we do this. We argue, we publish, we lobby, we campaign for conservative candidates. Another thing we do is, when the GOP goes off the rails on really key issues - size of government, the National Question, Wilsonian adventures - we stay home on election day.

• Ronald Reagan cut taxes to raise the deficit to stop liberals in future years from increasing spending. Obama will raise spending to raise the deficit to stop conservatives in future years from cutting taxes. As he funds every liberal dream - from alternative energy production to infrastructure renovation to more federal revenue sharing - he will force a massive expansion in the size of government for a decade to come.

• Los conservadores llegaron al poder para reducir el tamaño del gobierno y ampliar la esfera de la iniciativa libre y privada. Pero últimamente hemos aumentado el gobierno para mantenernos en el cargo. Y, pronto, si no recordamos por qué fuimos elegidos habremos perdido nuestro cargo junto con nuestros principios, y dejaremos una montaña de deudas que los nietos de nuestros hijos sufrirán mucho después de que hayamos partido de esta tierra. Porque, amigos míos, la hipocresía es el más obvio de los pecados, y el pueblo la castigará.

• You can have very big local government. By big, I mean very engaged government. Do you measure it in terms of the number of laws? Number of employees? You could make arguments for either one. I tend to think the axis of the size of government is the wrong concern. But I do think that situating power more locally is a legitimate approach.

• Nelson Mandela stood up against a great injustice and was willing to pay a huge price for that. That's the reason he's mourned today, because of that struggle that he performed I mean, what he was advocating for was not necessarily the right answer, but he was fighting against some great injustice, and I would make the argument that we have a great injustice going on right now in this country with an ever-increasing size of government that is taking over and controlling people's lives, and Obamacare is front and center in that.
