But we need to quit taxing people upon death. No taxation without respiration.

Our Founding Fathers crafted a constitutional Republic for the first time in the history of the world because they were shaping a form of government that would not have the failures of a democracy in it, but had the representation of democracy in it.

All Americans have a sacred duty to guarantee Social Security benefits to our nation's senior citizens.

The solution really has to lie within the Iraqi people.

That's the key: get the constitution in place. Get rule of law in place, capital will come, electricity will follow.

In Iowa, we take care of people. That's all I think I need to say.

I created jobs and saved the taxpayers money on every road I built.

The current practice of extending U.S. citizenship to hundreds of thousands of 'anchor babies' must end because it creates a magnet for illegal immigration into our country. Now is the time to ensure that the laws in this country do not encourage law-breaking.

We should recognize that on the day that we are born, our glass is half full. In America your chance to fill your glass the rest of the way up is greater than it is anyplace else on this planet.

Thousands of Americans die at the hands of illegal aliens every year. Every murder, every rape, every violent gang crime committed against Americans by illegal aliens is an utterly preventable crime.

Anybody can balance a budget if they raise taxes.

This self imposed guilt about racial and ethnic profiling is idiocy.

A common person can never again be President of the United States.

We can't restore our civilization with someome else's babies.

I'd ask you to go back through history and figure out where are those contributions made by these other categories of people that you are talking about? [Moslems, Hispanics, Asians and other immigrants who American nativists like King objected to.]

Being a son of the South puts you in a different position when it comes to the Confederate flag. It means something entirely different to the people who have ancestors who fought in the Civil War on the south side of the Mason-Dixon line.

This bill, this badly named ENLIST Act, would put out the advertisement that says, 'Sneak into America. Sneak into the military, and that's going to be the most expeditious path to American citizenship and the whole smorgasbord of benefits that come from American citizenship.'

Liberals want to amend our country's history to eradicate the role of Christianity in America and chisel references to God or faith from our historical buildings.

I'm more the conscience of the conservative than I am someone looking for consensus.

Equal justice under the law, even if it's your mother. That was a point of admiration in our household. It was drilled into me.

Some want to rebrand the GOP, but they will never rebrand conservatives.

The idea of multiculturalism, that every culture is equal - that's not objectively true.

Google that, 'old white men,' and you'll find that comes out of the mouths of liberals in a daily basis across the country. They're disparaging a group of people, and it's time somebody stood up for that group of people.

I've noticed that some Democrats, who seldom mention their faith or maybe never mention their faith, will seize on to a phrase that Pope Francis may have said, and they want to attach themselves to that agenda. Political opportunists is what they are.

Citizenship must be precious, not handed out like candy in a parade. We don't ride along and throw out citizenship like you do M&M's or Tootsie Rolls or whatever it is we're tossing out in our parades.
