Quotes: Government, Charity, and a Couple Palin Gems

"One of the serious obstacles to the improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity." Andrew Carnegie

"Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program." Milton Friedman

And now, for some priceless Palin quotes before she thankfully slips back into obscurity...

"Sitting here in these chairs that I’m going to be proposing but in working with these governors who again on the front lines are forced to and it’s our privileged obligation to find solutions to the challenges facing our own states every day being held accountable, not being just one of many just casting votes or voting present every once in a while, we don’t get away with that." Sarah Palin

"If [the media] convince enough voters that that is negative campaigning, for me to call Barack Obama out on his associations then I don’t know what the future of our country would be in terms of First Amendment rights and our ability to ask questions without fear of attacks by the mainstream media." Sarah Palin
