It doesn't require expropriation or confiscation of private property or business to impose socialism on a people. What does it mean whether you hold the deed or the title to your business or property if the government holds the power of life and death over that business or property?

I believe now, as I alway have, that America's strength is in 'We the People.'

The American people aren't overtaxed. The government in Washington is overfed. The main difference between ourselves and the other side is: we see an America where every day is the Fourth of July. They see an America where every day is April 15.

With freedom goes responsibility, a responsibility that can only be met by the individual himself.

If not us, who? And if not now, when?

Christmas is a holiday that we celebrate not as individuals nor as a nation, but as a human family.

I was raised to believe that God has a plan for everyone and that seemingly random twists of fate are all a part of His plan.
