religious fighting liberty
I have spent almost my entire adult life fighting to defend the religious liberty of every American to follow his or her faith and live according to his conscience.
religious strong second-amendment
If you want a candidate to defend life and marriage and religious liberty and the Second Amendment and to appoint strong constitutionalists to the court, I'm the only candidate with that record. That's why conservatives are uniting behind our campaign. And if they want to continue with the attacks, that's their prerogative.
country religious thinking
I do think if we take the power out of Washington and bring it back to the people, if we defend the Bill of Rights, free speech, religious liberty, the Second Amendment, privacy, if we repeal Obamacare, abolish the IRS, if we get Washington out of the way of job creators, I think we can transform this country.
religious heart squares
The First Amendment exists to protect our religious liberty--to ensure that all Americans are able to seek out worship God with all our hearts, free from government coercion; it does not mandate scouring the public square to forcibly remove all acknowledgement s of the Almighty
religious military years
Whatever the history of U.S. intervention in Iraq, our priorities now should be to protect our people and defend our national security interests, not to try to resolve an intractable religious divide some 1,500 years in the making.
religious fighting careers
I have been proud to fight and stand for religious liberty, to stand against Planned Parenthood, to defend life for my entire career.
counted good john
I like John McCain. He can always be counted on for a good quote.
declare rests war
The authority to declare war rests in Congress, not in an out-of-control president.
bad federal government
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.
block democrats house introduced passed prohibit senate stood took
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.'
agree foreign good rand
I'm a big fan of Rand Paul; he and I are good friends. I don't agree with him on foreign policy.
No major entitlement, once it has been implemented, has ever been unwound.
