Allen Iverson

I am in agreement with income-tax protesters that the tax, as commonly applied, is unconstitutional, unfair, and immoral.

G. Edward Griffin

It is time for Republicans in D.C. to fight. Too often, they give up; they negotiate with themselves. They said they would get rid of the unconstitutional amnesty. They didn't do that. They said they would repeal Obamacare if we gave them the majority. They didn't do that, either.

Bobby Jindal
