Every form of government tends to perish by excess of its basic principle.

I have a message from the Tea Party, a message that is loud and clear and does not mince words. We've come to take our government back.

Government works less efficiently when it begins to grow out of control and takes on more and more of the responsibilities that belong to the citizens.

It was settled by the Constitution, the laws, and the whole practice of the government that the entire executive power is vested in the President of the United States.

That no government, so called, can reasonably be trusted, or reasonably be supposed to have honest purposes in view, any longer than it depends wholly upon voluntary support.
