politics – Uncommon Sense

The good and the bad

There are a lot of bad Republicans; there are no good Democrats.

Letter from President Donald J. Trump to the Speaker of the House of Representatives

The Honorable Nancy Pelosi
Speaker of the House of Representatives
Washington, D.C. 20515

Dear Madam Speaker:

I write to express my strongest and most powerful protest against the partisan impeachment crusade being pursued by the Democrats in the House of Representatives. This impeachment represents an unprecedented and unconstitutional abuse of power by Democrat Lawmakers, unequaled in nearly two and a half centuries of American legislative history.

Our 1.5-party system

Republicans campaign like Libertarians and govern like Democrats.

Political ‘compassion’

In U.S. politics, ‘compassion’ means giving money and privileges to well organized interest groups at everyone else’s expense.

The problem with politics

In politics stupidity is not a handicap.

Defining ‘politics’

POLITICS, n. Strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles.

Switching places

If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals — if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is.

Politics are everywhere

In our age, there is no such thing as ‘keeping out of politics.’ All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred, and schizophrenia.

The fundamental theory of American law

It is the fundamental theory of all the more recent American law … that the average citizen is half-witted, and hence not to be trusted to either his own devices or his own thoughts.
