“To Obama, to Hillary, to Democrats and the American left, whenever a guy says that he\u2019s a woman, she\u2019s a woman. When a woman says, ‘No, no, no, I present as a guy,\u2019 the left says, ‘There\u2019s a guy! There\u2019s a guy!\u2019 ‘See the two boobs?\u2019 ‘I say it\u2019s a guy!\u2019 So if you\u2019re a woman and you want to be a man and you tell a Democrat you\u2019re a man, you\u2019re a man. If you\u2019re a man that wants to be a woman — and you tell the Democrats you\u2019re a woman and you want to use the woman\u2019s bathroom and you\u2019re a man — they say, ‘Fine, have at it!\u2019 Tell \u2019em you\u2019re a Muslim; they say, ‘No. No. No. You have to be… You\u2019re inspired by Republicans.'”<\/p>\n

“The bastardization of logic, the denial of reality that the left is willing to do in order to preserve themselves and their agenda can literally drive you crazy.”<\/p>\n

“Not one person — not one media outlet — would dare to blame Obama for Mateen\u2019s attack even though he said, ‘I am ticked off! I am mad! They are bombing my country.\u2019 Well, the people in the gay bar were not bombing Afghanistan. Obama was, and is. But of course, they\u2019re not gonna blame Obama. They\u2019re too busy trying to blame the NRA, too busy trying to blame Christians, too busy trying to blame talk radio, Fox News, the usual suspects.” <\/p>\n

“After the Orlando shooting, Obama said, ‘ISIL is under more pressure than ever before. ISIL continues to lose ground in Iraq. All told, ISIL has now lost nearly half the populated territory it once controlled in Iraq, and it will lose more.\u2019 The CIA director today says they\u2019re bigger than ever, they\u2019re stronger than ever, they\u2019re stealthier than ever, and they\u2019re getting into this country in greater numbers than ever. Who are we to believe here?” <\/p>\n

“Even if you have a job, you\u2019re worried you\u2019re gonna lose it. If you have savings, you\u2019re worried somebody\u2019s gonna take it or you\u2019re gonna have to tap into it before you intended to and it\u2019s gonna be gone. Meanwhile, you turn on the TV, see a president that\u2019s happier than he can be!” <\/p>\n

“Countering Violent Extremism does not permit the FBI to factor radical beliefs when determining whether there\u2019s a criminal threat. We\u2019re not allowed to go there. Call it a variation of profiling. But this is not profiling; this is hard, cold evidence we are to ignore it. We\u2019re not allowed to use it because of Countering Violent Extremism limitations on investigating Muslim communities. So why is Paul Ryan pushing to fund this program an additional $40 million in the next budget?” <\/p>\n

“After the Orlando shooting, Obama said, ‘ISIL is under more pressure than ever before. ISIL continues to lose ground in Iraq. All told, ISIL has now lost nearly half the populated territory it once controlled in Iraq, and it will lose more.\u2019 The CIA director today says they\u2019re bigger than ever, they\u2019re stronger than ever, they\u2019re stealthier than ever, and they\u2019re getting into this country in greater numbers than ever. Who are we to believe here?” <\/p>\n

“One of the reasons people voted for Obama was they thought that his election would end any idea that there was racism, in this country. A lot of people were hoping and praying that that\u2019s what Obama\u2019s election would mean, and that\u2019s all. They weren\u2019t voting for policy Obama policy-wise,  because Obama was pretty much running an empty-canvas campaign, based on feel-good, unity, and all this.” <\/p>\n

“There was quite a sizable group of people that said, ‘We\u2019re electing a guy named Barack Obama. Maybe that might send a message to Islam that we\u2019re not a problem; they don\u2019t need to be mad at us.\u2019 Well, how\u2019s that working out?” <\/p>\n

“Barack Obama has a romanticized version of Islam that does not include terrorism in it. All these acts of terrorism are coming from nonplayers that are doing it in the name of Islam, but it isn\u2019t true. They\u2019re not Islamists. That\u2019s what we\u2019re supposed to believe.” <\/p>\n

“I think many in the media today don\u2019t know the difference between fact and opinion. In many cases, opinion can be fact if it\u2019s the right opinion. If you can\u2019t tell the difference between opinion and fact, then you are incapable of critical thinking, critical speech, critical writing, because that\u2019s not taught anymore. No one\u2019s taught to have critical, logical thinking.” <\/p>\n

“Logical thinking is going to produce opinions that some are gonna call racist or sexist or bigoted or homophobic. You\u2019re not permitted to be any of that, which means you have to throw logic out half the time and instead adopt whatever the politically correct view of something is — which, by definition, is not fact. It\u2019s a huge problem.” <\/p>\n

“Trump represents something much larger than even himself, and people are so invested in it. They\u2019re not gonna allow their movement to be derailed, and they\u2019re gonna maintain support for the guy no matter what because it\u2019s the movement that matters.”    <\/p>\n

“When talking about geopolitics, talking about national security, we have enemies that we have to deal with, and they\u2019re going to have to be defeated, or we are. It doesn\u2019t come down to not calling them names. It doesn\u2019t come down to being polite. It doesn\u2019t come down to any of that. It is far deeper and much, much more grave than something as simple as changing the way you talk about people.” <\/p>\n

“So much of life in America defies common sense.” <\/p>\n

“When I started this program, you know how many talk radio stations there were?  Honestly, in 1988, there were 150; we started out on 56 of them.  There are over 3,000 today.” <\/p>\n

“You can\u2019t get through to people who are not capable of reasoning.  Being incapable of reasoning is the equivalent of having a closed mind, which is one thing.  But when the people with closed minds think they\u2019re the ones with open minds, the problem is compounded.” <\/p>\n

“We are not teaching critical, logical thinking. We\u2019re teaching obedience to the leftist agenda. We are programming and indoctrinating and propagandizing students, and we are purposely instructing them not to think on their own.”<\/p>\n
