“Lyndon Johnson is a Southerner who sold his birthright for a mess of pottage|mess of dark pottage.”

“Hardball with Chris Matthews, September 1, 2004, transcript at MSNBC”

“Here is the brutal truth that no one dares to mention: We’re too few because too many of our babies have been killed. Over 45 million since Roe v. Wade in 1973.” "If those 45 million children had lived, today they would be defending our country, they would be filling our jobs, they would be paying into Social Security. Still, we watch as 3,700 babies are killed every single day in America. It is unbelievable that a nation under God would allow this.”

“I say bomb the hell out of them. If there's collateral damage, so be it. They certainly found our civilians to be expendable.”

“How could this great land of plenty produce too few people in the last 30 years?”

“I’m southern born, and southern bred, and when I die, I’ll be southern dead.”
