Jeff Flake
 [Since then Mr. Hastert and his fellow GOP leaders have skillfully used their narrow majority to win an amazing number of close votes without having to negotiate much with Democrats. But gradually the fear of losing their majority has also begun leading them to behave more and more like the big-spending Democrats they unseated.] Holding the majority used to be viewed as a means to an end--the end being promoting freedom and limited government, ... Now, holding the majority seems to be an end in itself--holding onto power for the sake of holding onto power. |
| [When U.S. congressman Jeff Flake visited Havana recently, promoting legislation to let Americans travel freely to Cuba, Fidel Castro had his top aides meet with Flake to ask whether the measure could really pass.] Yes, ... and tell Castro that if he doesn't behave, we're going to bring down the whole darn embargo! |
| $50 billion is simply too much to give FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) all at once and ensure proper oversight. |
| For over 40 years, Americans have been prevented from traveling to Cuba, and for over 40 years, Castro hasn't moved an inch closer to democracy, ... If we are serious about undermining Castro and bringing democracy to that island, why not let Americans travel there with that message? |
| I can tell you if we don't see more than rhetoric, this leadership team is not secure. |
| I encouraged him to get in the race as a way to draw the others out. |
| I have to be a little pessimistic. There is no real stomach for fiscal discipline right now. |
| I never believed that it was responsible to create this new entitlement, but it's even more irresponsible now, given that Hurricane Katrina has created new spending priorities for the federal government, |
| I think that this incident last week simply demonstrates that the INS is in a free fall. |
| I think the heavier lifting is the budget-process and earmarks [reform]. Lobbyist reform is blaming somebody else. I just fear that there will be too much blaming and not focus on what we need to do. |
| If the total cost of the hurricane recovery effort approaches $200 billion, as some have suggested, that would amount to every family in the country paying about $2,500. The last thing we need to do would be to saddle taxpayers with a tax increase, |
| If voters want bigger government, sooner or later they're going to return to the genuine article, and that's the Democratic Party, |
| If we make the decision that federal money will follow the child, we should make it a voucher. That's a Republican principle. |
| If you look at fiscal conservatism these days, it's in a sorry state. Republicans don't even pretend anymore. |
| In the end, I think this looks like nothing more than an extremely expensive way to buy votes. |
