Rick Santorum v. Limited Government | Cato @ Liberty
And thank you for making me dig, so that I could also find this:
Santorum had already dismissed limited government in theory. Promoting his book, he told NPR in 2006:
One of the criticisms I make is to what I refer to as more of a libertarianish right. You know, the left has gone so far left and the right in some respects has gone so far right that they touch each other. They come around in the circle. This whole idea of personal autonomy, well I dont think most conservatives hold that point of view. Some do. They have this idea that people should be left alone, be able to do whatever they want to do, government should keep our taxes down and keep our regulations low, that we shouldnt get involved in the bedroom, we shouldnt get involved in cultural issues. You know, people should do whatever they want. Well, that is not how traditional conservatives view the world and I think most conservatives understand that individuals cant go it alone. That there is no such society that I am aware of, where weve had radical individualism and that it succeeds as a culture.
He declared himself against individualism, against libertarianism, against this whole idea of personal autonomy, . . . this idea that people should be left alone. And in [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03zFTTqHScI"]this 2005 TV interview[/ame], you can hear these classic hits: This is the mantra of the left: I have a right to do what I want to do and We have a whole culture that is focused on immediate gratification and the pursuit of happiness . . . and it is harming America.
Fool.
The CATO Institute? Those liberal assholes?
"lol" did "those liberal assholes" have a pistol to Santorums' head and force him to speak those words?
