“As a fiscal conservative, I believe one of the most important roles the federal government can play in assuring that our economy remains strong is to keep our fiscal house in order.”
Allen Boyd
“A conservative government is an organized hypocrisy”
Benjamin Disraeli
“We've gone astray from first principles. We've lost sight of the rule that individual freedom and ingenuity are at the very core of everything that we've accomplished. Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.”
Ronald Reagan
“A conservative knows that there are limits to what we can change, that there are some things that government cannot and should not do. Liberals and socialists, on the other hand, are convinced that by interfering with the free market they can create a better economy, or that by social engineering they can create a new and improved human nature.”
Stockwell Day
“No man can call himself liberal, or radical, or even a conservative advocate of fair play, if his work depends in any way on the unpaid or underpaid labor of women at home or in the office”
Gloria Steinem
“It doesn't really matter whether it's the federal government that oversees the protection of endangered species and open space conservation or the state,”
David Hogan
“We lose sleep over that. But I think Michael J. Fox [who played ultra-conservative kid Alex Keaton in 'Family Ties'] was aberrant.”
Dan Savage
