rights people safety
The callous use of general warrants and the disregard for the Bill of Rights must end. Forcing us to choose between our rights and our safety is a false choice and we are better than that as a nation and as a people.
race clubs excluded
I would never belong to any club that excluded anybody for race.
party government tea
I have a message from the Tea Party, a message that is loud and clear and does not mince words. We've come to take our government back.
borrowing
We are borrowing $40,000 per second.
debt dollars minutes
The greatest threat to our national security is our debt. We borrow a million dollars a minute.
country baby thinking
I'm not opposed to letting people work and labor in our country, but we shouldn't provide an easy route to citizenship. We're the only country I know of where a person can come in illegally and that baby becomes a citizen and I think that should stop also.
mistake thinking two
Republicans who criticize the use of two languages, I think, make a great mistake.
leadership party technology
I don't think Edward Snowden deserves a death penalty or life in prison. I think that's inappropriate. I think that's why he fled, [because] that is what he faced.
qatar kuwait east
We shouldn't have a program where we just say that we're going to take care of the world's refugees. Nobody in the Middle East is doing anything. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait - all the Gulf nations are doing nothing.
government careful our-lives
Perhaps it is time to be more careful what we ask government to do, and where we allow it to become part of our lives.
children war believe
The coarsening of our culture towards violent death has more consequences than war. Tragically, this same culture has led to the death of 50 million unborn children in the last 40 years. I don't think a civilization can long endure that does not have respect for all human life, born and not yet born. I believe there will come a time when we are all judged on whether or not we took a stand in defense of all life from the moment of conception until our last natural breath.
country people needs
We need a revival in the country,” Paul said. “We need another Great Awakening with tent revivals of thousands of people saying, 'reform or see what's going to happen if we don't reform.'
president doe sense-of-urgency
There's a sense of urgency that the president does not possess, that there is a 9/11 in the making.
government firsts first-amendment
The First Amendment says keep government out of religion. It doesn't say keep religion out of government.
