“To me consensus seems to be - the process of abandoning all beliefs, principles, values and policies in search of something in which no-one believes, but to which no-one objects - the process of avoiding the very issues that have to be solved, merely because you cannot get agreement on the way ahead. What great cause would have been fought and won under the banner "I stand for consensus"?”

“You're going to face a choice in November. This is a choice between the policies that got us into thismess in the first place and the policies that got us out of this mess - and what the other sideis counting on is people not having a good memory.”

“Heaven forbid we've got a problem where we could have prevented a terrorist attack or apprehended someone who is engaged in dangerous activity, but we didn't do so simply because of inaction in the Senate.”

“The principle of majority does not work when differences on fundamentals are involved.”

“To say that being non-judgmental is better than being judgmental is itself a judgment, and therefore a violation of principle.”

“The person who pays an ounce of principle for a pound of popularity gets badly cheated.”
