What I'm not saying is that all government spending is bad. It's not - far far from it but there is no free lunch as a former colleague of mine used to say. There is no public tooth fairy. Father Christmas does not work on the Treasury staff this year. You can never bail someone out of trouble without putting someone else into trouble.
The Republicans need to work on registration and getting out their vote and their early voters and absentees. Grassroots stuff.
The flowery style is not unsuitable to public speeches or addresses which amount only to compliment. The lighter beauties are in their place when there is nothing more solid to say but the flowery style ought to be banished from a pleading a sermon or a didactic work.
It would be a much better country if women did not vote. That is simply a fact. In fact in every presidential election since 1950 - except Goldwater in '64 - the Republican would have won if only the men had voted.
This is pure speculation but for a period of time a lot of getting into a party was through fundraising and volunteer work and Republican women had more time to do that than democratic women who were out there getting jobs.
No men and women of the Irish race we shall not fight for England. We shall fight for the destruction of the British Empire and the construction of an Irish republic.

The true republic: men their rights and nothing more women their rights and nothing less.
What Democratic congressmen do to their women staffers Republican congressmen do to the country.
The reason women don't play football is because 11 of them would never wear the same outfit in public.
There's the conventional wisdom of which I have none where you get a record deal you get a publicist you get a campaign and you do the tour but none of that adds up to things like nuance and subtlety and dynamic.
No one ever found wisdom without also being a fool. Writers alas have to be fools in public while the rest of the human race can cover its tracks.
The extreme limit of wisdom that's what the public calls madness.
Public opinion is no more than this: what people think that other people think.
Wisdom stands at the turn in the road and calls upon us publicly but we consider it false and despise its adherents.
Well the wedding in the words of the Archbishop of Canterbury was a fairy tale and there was a huge public impress investment of goodwill affection and indeed money in this Institution. It was a huge success at the time.
