No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

How ironic that Maxine Waters is on the list?

Quote
"He should not step down from his chairmanship," she said. "He should keep working and let the investigation take its course. And if the investgation proves that he has done something wrong, that he should be penalized, then that's the time to consider stepping down or retiring."

Waters also suggested that Rangel's not the only one who's failed to fill out disclosure forms properly.

"I wanna tell you, there are many members who if you go back over all of their records over the years, you're going to find that there are disclosures that were not made."
