I have not earned what I have already enjoyed.
The Tea Party has an important voice in the country and now they have a voice in the U. S. Senate.
I want to be one that is willing to do things that are not easy but that need to be done.
The trend of offering individualized education plans, curricula, and lessons is going to help students tremendously. “Teaching to the middle” is one of the saddest concepts I've ever heard about.
I would vote against raising the national debt ceiling. Again, this is about mortgaging the future of unborn generations of Americans. It's a form of taxation without representation. I don't think we can do that.
When you have a country that's been accustomed to government spending at a certain level, it is really hard to ratchet it back.

You have to allow life to play itself out.
The greater the hold of government upon the life of the individual citizen, the greater the risk of war.
