What is immoral for an individual to do, is immoral for a government to do
war real thinking
I think that, most importantly, when I see issues of war, I see them in a personal vein, and I am reluctant to go to war unless there's a real, valid American interest because I've seen the wounded soldiers.
looks term-limits republican
You know, you look at term limits, you poll term limits, 70, 80 percent of Republicans or Democrats are for it.
fighting rights long
The Bill of Rights existed long before President Obama was elected, and as long as I’m a U.S. Senator, I will fight to protect the basic rights and liberties that belong to all of us as American citizens.
party black-history republican
The Republican Party's history is rich and chock full of emancipation and black history.
somewhere-else russia way
The one way, possibly, out of this is for [Bashar] Assad to abdicate and plead, perhaps to Russia or somewhere else. Would save another wave of civilian casualties if we could get him to abdicate.
cutting people political

thinking law people
I think it's a conundrum. If we have no laws on this, people take it to one extension further, does it have to be humans, you know?
country envy people
You campaigned against rich people and you got enough envy whipped up in the country and you're gonna get 'em. You're gonna stick it to those rich people. But guess what? You may not get anymore revenue. You may not get anymore economic growth. But you can say, 'I stuck it to the rich people.'
america wish immigration
Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants. If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you.
dna people support
Many states and even many people who are in support of the death penalty question their support of the death penalty because of the imperfection of our courts. Through DNA testing, we don't always get it right, even with that.
