Global Warming: It is a hoax. It is bad science. It is high-jacking public policy. It is the greatest scam in history.

When I was growing up we used to play basketball in a park that was never shoveled when it snowed. The basketball rims were never fixed. And we understood then that there was a relationship between public policy and our quality of life.

Amnesty is a terrible policy and it's terrible politics. It's a terrible policy because you are rewarding people for breaking the law.

Everyone wants to demagogue everyone else. That may be good politics but it's awful policy.

You have to take away some of tax breaks for the wealthy and you have to cut back on some entitlements. Because unless we do all of these things it just doesn't work. And what's good theater and what's good politics isn't necessarily good economic policy.
