Smart Quotes about Conservatives

(OK, honestly I could not decide on a topic of the day.)

Benjamin Disraeli:
Conservatism discards Prescription, shrinks from Principle, disavows Progress; having rejected all respect for antiquity, it offers no redress for the present, and makes no preparation for the future.

Benjamin Disraeli:
A Conservative Government is an organized hypocrisy.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt:
A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward.

G. K. Chesterton:
The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of Conservatives is to prevent mistakes from being corrected.

John Kenneth Galbraith:
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

(and one of my all time favorites)

P. J. O'Rourke:
The Democrats are the party of government activism, the party that says government can make you richer, smarter, taller, and get the chickweed out of your lawn. Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work, and then get elected and prove it.
