Conservatism, We Are Told, Is Out-of-date. This Charge Is Preposterous And We Ought To Boldly Say So. The Laws Of God, And Of Nature, Have No Dateline. These Principles Are Derived From The Nature Of Man, And From The Truths That God Has Revealed About His Creation. To Suggest That The Conservative Philosophy Is Out Of Date Is Akin To Saying That The Golden Rule, Or The Ten Commandments Or Aristotle's Politics Are Out Of Date.

I Have Little Interest In Streamlining Government Or In Making It More Efficient, For I Mean To Reduce Its Size. I Do Not Undertake To Promote Welfare, For I Propose To Extend Freedom. My Aim Is Not To Pass Laws, But To Repeal Them. It Is Not To Inaugurate New Programs, But To Cancel Old Ones That Do Violence To The Constitution, Or That Have Failed In Their Purpose, Or That Impose On The People An Unwarranted Financial Burden. I Will Not Attempt To Discover Whether Legislation Is "needed" Before I Have First Determined Whether It Is Constitutionally Permissible.
