I went through two pretty dark years being fed up with the system and frustrated with my own party after two disastrous elections in 2006 and 2008.

I don't need to be asking for money for local museums and other projects just to make me look good back home.

I'd like to see a Republican Party that embraces a lot of the libertarian ideas.

I like to be a strategic policy guy.

You've got the Democratic Party that now depends on more government spending and actual building the dependence on government in order to increase their political party.

The Tea Party doesn't like politicians.

But my bill, the Drill Now Act, would actually expedite the whole process, let the Interior Department move ahead quicker... It would stop the radical environmental lawyers from delaying for years with frivolous lawsuits the leasing of the property.
