Abortion is continued at our own peril. It is doubtful that God will continue to bless America if we continue to kill 1.2 million children every year.

Barack Obama is toady. The Democrats are actually worried the man may go to Indonesia and bow to more Muslims.

Climate change is a ruse — if CO2 is a pollutant, someone should tell that to the plants.

The Confederate flag is a symbol of racial hatred.

The Family is the first economy. If the family breaks down, government gets bigger because of the consequences of family breakdown.

Health reform is going to destroy the country, because in the next year or so America will have to dramatically cut the military because we can't pay for it.

Marriage is an institution that existed before governments existed. It reflects nature and reflects God and God's will for us and is beneficial to society.

No child left behind is a wrongheaded and failed expansion of the federal government and the role of education.

Same-sex marriage is not made legitimate by the fact that same-sex couples love each other, in that, even though one loves one's children, friends, brother, or mother-in-law, we do not feel compelled to call these relationships marriage, too.

Same-sex marriage is not a right, rather, traditional marriage is a privilege that society recognizes because society sees intrinsic value to that relationship over any other relationship.

The Separation of church and state is not absolute. The idea that the church can have no influence or no involvement in the operation of the state is absolutely antithetical to the objectives and vision of our country.
