Selling My Books on the Streets of Brooklyn 2/5

Tomorrow is the 100th anniversary of Ronald Reagan's birth. He is a hero to many, including me. Even the left has begun praising him, just as they did Barry Goldwater after his death. In an op-ed piece syndicated in today's NY Post, Jonah Goldberg said this is a new strategy to make today's conservatives look bad. He cited some past, vicious quotes that demonized these stalwarts and said that the left's philosophy is really: "The only good conservative is a dead conservative."
Here are some quotes from Dutch, courtesy of Brainyquote.com & Quotegarden.com. Enjoy:
Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
Approximately 80% of our air pollution stems from hydrocarbons released by vegetation, so let's not go overboard in setting and enforcing tough emission standards from man-made sources.  
Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
One way to make sure crime doesn't pay would be to let the government run it.
Republicans believe every day is the Fourth of July, but the democrats believe every day is April 15.
Some people wonder all their lives if they've made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem.  
The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.
Today, if you invent a better mousetrap, the government comes along with a better mouse.
I've noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born.
