First of all, we have seen now in six years of Obamacare that it has been a disaster. It is the biggest job-killer in this country.

The federal government has not been effective enough monitoring and surveilling bad guys.
I'm not serving in office because I desperately needed 99 new friends in the U.S. Senate.
cool hang ted
I'm not cool enough to hang out with any rock stars. Jay-Z doesn't come over to my house. I don't hang out with Ted Nugent.

I introduced legislation in the Senate to prohibit President Obama's amnesty. The House of Representatives stood up and led. It took the legislation I introduced and it passed it. But the Senate Democrats stood as one uniform block and said, 'No, we will do nothing to stop amnesty.'
