I looked at No Child Left Behind after it was enacted and saw what happened and saw the expansion of the federal government and the role of education. And I said, you know, that was - that's not what I believe in.

More quotes by Rick Santorum
If just a few people make decisions about what this world looks like, what this country looks like, then you have people sitting in offices at major media outlets and Hollywood who think they can deal with a small group of people, to get them to jump through the hoops they want you to.
Rick Santorum
Obviously the first thing we need to do is repeal “Obamacare.” That's one entitlement that we can get rid of. And that's a couple trillion dollars in spending over the next 10 years.
Rick Santorum
I don't advocate civil disobedience. I do advocate the role of an informed citizen to try to overturn when a court makes a mistake and gets an issue wrong.
Rick Santorum
We know the candidate Barack Obama, what he was like - the anti-war government nig... America was a source for division around the world, that what we were doing was wrong.
Rick Santorum
In 2006 it was a horrible election year, and, you know, I lost. But I lost because I continued to be a constant conservative, and the last six years I was someone who was a national figure in the sense that I was the third ranking Republican in leadership and I had just run President Bush's campaign in Pennsylvania.
Rick Santorum
The decision he made with Usama bin Laden was a tactical decision. It wasn't a strategic decision. The strategic decision was made by President Bush to go after him. What President Obama has done on his watch, the issues that have come up while he's been president, he's gotten it wrong strategically every single time.

I've had the opportunity to spend some time with Donald Trump. He is - he - as you can imagine, I mean, he's a very engaging man. He's - he puts on an image as a lot of candidates and I think all of us do when we're in front of a microphone that's really tough and combative.
Rick Santorum
Against the advice of my wife, I endorsed Arlen Specter. I should have listened to my wife.
Rick Santorum
I want to make sure that the American worker has an opportunity to see their wages rise and their incomes increase.
Rick Santorum
You can say I'm a hater. But I would argue I'm a lover. I'm a lover of traditional families and of the right of children to have a mother and father... I would argue that the future of America hangs in the balance, because the future of the family hangs in the balance. Isn't that the ultimate homeland security, standing up and defending marriage?

George W. Bush is the first Catholic president of the United States.
Rick Santorum
Obamacare is a failure but you're going to need 60 votes to change preexisting conditions - other things to make the system work and that's the problem of repealing and replacing, is you can't do it because it's a broken system.
Rick Santorum
Its amazing that so many kids turn out to be fairly normal, considering the weird socialization they get in public schools.

CO2 is a pollutant? Tell that to the plants.
Rick Santorum
The government has convinced parents that at some point it's no longer their responsibility. And in fact, they force them, in many respects, to turn their children over to the public education system and wrest control from them and block them out of participation of that. That has to change or education will not improve in this country.
Rick Santorum
I am not a libertarian, and I fight very strongly against libertarian influence within the Republican Party and the conservative movement.
Rick Santorum
Priests, like all of us, are affected by culture. When the culture is sick, every element in it becomes infected. While it is no excuse for this scandal, it is no surprise that Boston, a seat of academic, political and cultural liberalism in America, lies at the center of the storm.
Rick Santorum
Marriage is what marriage is... It’s like going out and saying, ‘That tree is a car.’ Well, the tree’s not a car. A tree’s a tree. Marriage is marriage.
Rick Santorum
I mean the fact is that some of this information that we have found out that led to Usama bin Laden actually came from these enhanced interrogation techniques.
Rick Santorum
As the hobbits are going up Mount Doom, the eye of Mordor is being drawn somewhere else. It's being drawn to Iraq. You know what? I want to keep it on Iraq. I don't want the eye to come back to the United States.
