During a 2009 interview with a New Jersey newspaper, he criticized the health care plan presented by President Barack Obama, saying: “Obama is ready to spend trillions of dollars to create a government health program.

Famous quotes containing the words political and/or positions:
“Political life at Washington is like political life in a suburban vestry.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“What arouses the indignation of the honest satirist is not, unless the man is a prig, the fact that people in positions of power or influence behave idiotically, or even that they behave wickedly. It is that they conspire successfully to impose upon the public a picture of themselves as so very sagacious, honest and well-intentioned.”
—Claud Cockburn (1904–1981)
