September 19, 2002
WHITMAN: It is an honor to be serving as the Mary Louise Smith Chair during the ten year anniversary of the Carrie Chapman Catt Center for Women and Politics. I had the privilege of meeting Mary Louise Smith when I was a young woman and she left a lasting impression on me about the importance of public service. Mary Louise Smith was a trailblazer for women and politics and she knocked down many of the doors through which women are now privileged to walk. Since my time as EPA Administrator, […]

CPAC - March 4, 2016
March 4, 2016
MARTIN: Good afternoon CPAC. You know, the President of the United States’ last address is gathering eight years ago. Do the math, it was a different president then. As he sat in the Oval Office preparing for that speech, he came across a phrase that confused him. So he asked, “what is this movement you keep talking about in the speech?” The speech writer, stunned responded, “well the conservative movement. You know the one started back in the 60s when this conservative groups first took root?” That apparently didn't sit […]

MARTIN: Thank you man so much, Steve, and thanks to Breitbart for all the you do for our movement and for conservatism. And thank you to Joe Dougan and the entire team who organized and put this conference together today. It's such an awesome success. Good morning fellow disruptors. You and I are disrupting the establishment and they don't know what to do. Not even a full seven years ago, our movement began because we were so concerned about the direction our country was headed. In the past year, we […]

Tea Party Five Year Anniversary Event - February 28, 2014
February 24, 2014
MARTIN: We want an America where personal freedom is cherished and all Americans are treated equally so that everyone can pursue the American dream. Nearly everyone you talk to you will tell you they want that too. A lot of Americans think they already have that, but when your targeted by the IRS, when you learn that your government is listening to your phone calls, or making you buy health insurance you don't want or need, or that our nation is $17 trillion in debt, which means every American share […]

On The Contrary Interview - May 25, 2018
May 25, 2018
LUKAS: Conservatives need to do a better job reminding people that the whole reason why I support the reforms I do, why I want things like tax reform and deregulation is because of compassion and wanting people to have the chance to move up. ERBE: Hello I'm Bonnie Erbe and welcome to To The Contrary. This week in our series with women thought leaders, I'm sitting down with one of our regular panelists, Carrie Lukas, president of the Independent Women's Forum. The IWF’s mission is to increase the number of […]

Our Obvious Duty - circa 1937
January 1, 1937
OUR OBVIOUS DUTY circ 1937 by Carrie Chapman Catt Despite the fact that war has begun in Ethiopia which threatens the peace of the entire world, there is reason for peace makers to rejoice. At no time in the history of the world has there been such powerful demonstrations of opposition to war as during the past few months. The great outstanding fact of the year is not that war has come, but that the League of Nations very nearly persuaded Italy to abandon its imperialistic intentions. Such an effect […]

Nazis and Nazism - March 30, 1938
March 30, 1938
A Brief Address Delivered by Carrie Chapman Catt at the Annual Luncheon of the Women’s Division of the American Jewish Congress, Hotel Astor, New York City, March 30, 1938. There appears to be more madness per capita throughout the world today than has been known for some centuries. A scientific research to discover why this is so and especially why the same malady recurs again and again, like an epidemic, would be enlightening. But when the world goes mad, the situation calls loudly for something to be done about it, […]
