I don't think that has to be our choice... This party was born in principle. This party will die if it doesn't stand by its decision of principle.
It isn't a free speech issue; it's a matter of public decency.
Our first responsibility is not to ourselves, ... Our first responsibility is to our country and to our God.
One individual doesn't really accept the pro-life position of the party, and the other ... says he supports it and takes a position that is logically inconsistent.
We need to get rid of the 16th amendment, and return to the original system that funds government with a variety of tariffs and duties.
Christ would not vote for Barack Obama, because Barack Obama has voted to behave in a way that it is inconceivable for Christ to have behaved.
Would you join me in repudiating that kind of racial slur, to apologize?

Sex itself only exists in relation to procreation. That's one of the reasons why I sometimes object - and it's just a theoretical objection, but it's worth thinking about - to the whole notion that one calls what people of the same sex do "sexual relations."

The idea of a terrorist attack that assaults innocent human beings in a building or a mall or a restaurant is bad enough. Yet the terrorist mind that looks at a passenger plane and sees the fuel and the intensity of the blast, and sees the rocket engines that will carry it into the heart of destruction like a cruise missile, but who does not see the humanity of one single soul on that airplane, is the chilling truth of what we're up against.
