Chuck Muth's News & Views. From Chuck Muth's News & Views (I've been seeing this quotes a lot
lately):
The Goldwater Doctrine
"I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it
more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to
promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to
pass laws, but to repeal them. It is not to inaugurate new programs,
but to cancel old ones that do violence to the Constitution, or that
have failed in their purpose, or that impose on the people an
unwarranted financial burden. I will not attempt to discover whether
legislation is 'needed' before I have first determined whether it is
constitutionally permissible. And if I should later be attacked for
neglecting my constituents' interests, I shall reply that I was
informed their main interest is liberty and that in that cause I am
doing the very best I can."
- Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz.), "The Conscience of a Conservative"
