12. That while providing revenue for the support of the general government by duties upon imports, sound policy requires such an adjustment of these imposts as to encourage the development of the industrial interests of the whole country, and we commend that policy of national exchanges which secures to the workingmen liberal wages, to agriculture remunerating prices, to mechanics and manufacturers an adequate reward for their skill, labor and enterprise, and to the nation commercial prosperity and independence.

Here's an oldie but goodie about Grover Norquist, posted on FreeRepublics by Kattracks, who is no longer with us.

A Troubling Influence - An Islamic Fifth Column penetrates the White House

Norquist's Muslim Protégés

...and one from Michelle Malkin.

What say you now, Grover Norquist

Trump said he was a Democrat a few years ago. He even donated to DEM 2009. I can’t believe anyone here would seriously entertain the thought of him running as gop nominee

Norquist is an idiot or a libertarian but I repeat myself. The old school Conservative in the Republican Party were all about tariffs.

Some of us should listen more to Grover.

Yes we should. Humor is very important in life and there are not many things funnier than listening to a globalist mouthpiece like Grover telling us what is good for America.
