This is other people's money that Washington is appropriating and spending.

Washington is dominated by big money.

The mentality in Washington is, 'Look what our government - what our government can do for the American people.' We've got to get away from that mentality, and realize it's too expensive. We can't afford it.

We are the ones that are trying to get Washington spending under control so it can live within its means.

Washington is like playing the Super Bowl, only there are no timeouts, no potty breaks, and the arena is filled with the media. In government, you have to learn to put yourself second in a big way. But I am a business person at heart. I like to be in charge.

I'm not a Washington person.

Oh, that all the things my father had told me about how disgusting Washington is are true. And again it's the system - there are lots of nice, well-meaning people there. But it's a sleazy place. And politics is all about doing favors.

Washington is unpredictable these days.

That's the real secret to job creation - not borrowing and spending more money in Washington.

The American people are tired of the out-of-control spending, and they want Washington to get their act in order and stop spending money we don't have.
