"Politics is not something you can stand off and look at as though it were a television program or a painting on the wall and decide you really don't much care for it. This is the warp and woof of your life: everything from how deep you will be buried when you die, to the textbooks your kids study in school, to the qualifications of the people who prescribe your eyeglasses or contact lenses, to your health, education, home insurance - you name it, what doesn't government touch or set the rules for (or set no rules for)? . . . Time to raise hell."
