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.

“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“Extreme positions are not succeeded by moderate ones, but by contrary extreme positions.”
