Bio
Grover Norquist
Mr. Norquist is president of Americans for Tax Reform (ATR), a coalition of taxpayer groups, individuals and businesses opposed to higher taxes at both the federal, state, and local levels.
ATR organizes the TAXPAYER PROTECTION PLEDGE, which asks all candidates for federal and state office to commit themselves in writing to oppose all tax increases. To date, President George W. Bush, 193 House members, and 41 Senators have taken the pledge. On the state level, 7 governors and 1,221 state legislators have taken the pledge.
Mr. Norquist is author of the book Leave Us Alone -- Getting the Government's Hands Off Our Money, Our Guns, Our Lives. The book is an optimistic look at how the conservative movement can and will grow during the next 25 years.
Socrata, I didn't hear him say anything of the sort. Can you cite somewhere he has said he favors forcing prayer in schools. If not, I'll assume you made it up.
Bapyou, your comments are quite vacuous. I don't see what's pathetic about choosing independence instead of increased government control over the lives of private citizens. Maybe you could elaborate.
Thomas Frank's 'The Wrecking Crew: How Conservatives Rule', illuminates the origin of modern Conservatism telling a great deal about Norquist and his slimy ilk. Read it!
If only it were so that he wants to leave us alone.
Wouldn't he be in favor of forcing kids to pray in school?
Doesn't he expect us to clean up the environmental messes that unregulated businesses leave behind?
Just two examples of the baloney.
