Dick Armey, Unleashed
Dick Armey gave an amusing and candid interview to Dave Montgomery of the McClatchy Newspapers.
Congressional Republicans:
- “At the very time the Democrats were trying to win elections by pretending to be us, our guys were pretending to be them.”
- “They have to prove to the American people that they really are the small government conservatives the Democrats are pretending to be.”
Tom DeLay:
- “I don’t believe he’s a good person and I don’t believe he is a person who should have been in public office.”
- “I don’t like sneaky, conniving people.”
- “What Tom Delay did in redistricting was more correct than it was improper. … Poor old Tom. He could even make doing the right thing look ugly in how he did it.”
Hillary Clinton:
- “She will be whoever you want her to be. She’s a skillful, able politician. Her husband could go in and screw it up in a day. She’s walking around with a ton of dynamite in her hip pocket.”
- “Of course I wouldn’t vote for her. Betting on a horse to win doesn’t mean you want to buy the horse.”
“At the very time the Democrats were trying to win elections by pretending to be us, our guys were pretending to be them.â€
