In America, we're trying to find a peaceful solution in the Middle East, and we're not going to be divided along any lines.

I was brought up in a household with sir and ma'am.

I've always been fond of the saying that when it comes to oversight and reform, the federal government does two things well: nothing and overreact.

You know, it doesn't take a genius in the private sector to know that you can save literally hundreds of billions of dollars in federal spending if you can make it more responsive. That's the main job.

Like most Americans, I hope and wish is that there is a peaceful resolution to the Middle East conflict. Unfortunately, there are extremists on both sides who oppose a peaceful resolution and instead choose violence.

I don't need to be looking at every failure of government, I need to be looking where failure of government needs reform.

The American people do not want ambassadorships or any other position handed out to save a party money.
