“In fact, Bill Clinton's an excellent example of what he should be doing when he realizes that he's not invulnerable. He realized two things: his invulnerability was contextualized in two things: junk food, and he had a problem with certain kinds of women.” ShouldKindTwoFactsProblemCertainRealizingExampleBillsClintonExcellentTwo ThingsJunkJunk FoodInvulnerability Author:Walter Mischel

“I am amazed that Congressmen can pass a bill imposing severe penalties on anyone who burns the American flag, whereas they are responsible for burning that for which the flag stands: the United States as a territory, as a people, and as a biological manifestation.

“Our example - and commitment - to freedom has changed the world. But along with the genius of our Declaration of Independence, our Constitution, and our Bill of Rights, is the equal genius of our economic system. Our Founding Fathers endeavored to create a moral and just society like no other in history, and out of that grew a moral and just economic system the likes of which the world had never seen. Our freedom, what it means to be an American, has been defined and sustained by the liberating power of the free enterprise system.” WorldMeanHas BeensFatherMoralRightsEconomicExampleChangedGrewGeniusEqualCommitmentConstitutionIndependenceBillsLikesDefinedEnterpriseDeclarationFoundingLiberatingOur Founding FathersDeclaration Of IndependenceBill Of RightsEconomic SystemsFree EnterpriseWhat It Means To Be An American Author:Mitt Romney

“More frightening to me than any policy or politician is the ease with which the public is played for fools with words. The latest example is the 'Employee Freedom of Choice Act,' a bill that will do away with secret ballot elections among workers voting on whether to be represented by a union.

“The Government in their own terms, for example, they banked the income for the backpackers' tax. But they had a process attached to the backpackers' tax of review that they wanted to go through.
