I remember having a conversation with a local city official in Kentucky when the Kelo Supreme Court decision came down.

I welcome Senator Cruz to the battle against giving more power to President Obama. My consistent opposition to the Trade Promotion Authority, or TPA, stems from my belief that Congress has already given too much power to the Presidency.

On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther posted his Ninety-Five theses on the door of the Castle Church of Wittenberg. Christianity was for all time changed by one man’s confrontation with authority. For his audacity, for alleging that one’s path to heaven could

I voted no on the Gang of Eight’s recent immigration reform bill for one reason–it did not include border security first. Any immigration reform plan that does not include border security is not real reform, precisely because any plan that

I am for immigration reform because I am against allowing 12 million more illegal immigrants into our country. If we do nothing, 12 million more illegal immigrants will come. We must be in favor of reform–smart reform that starts with

In September, the Obama Administration and many Republicans were pushing for the U.S. to intervene in Syria. I said no. We did not have an articulable national security interest in that country, and it was also unclear if we had

National Defense is the most important job of the Federal Government, one that can’t be done elsewhere. I believe in a strong national defense. I believe in Ronald Reagan’s policy of “Peace through Strength.” I believe there are many ways

Every Republican likes to think he or she is the next Ronald Reagan. Some who say this do so for lack of their own ideas and agenda. Reagan was a great leader and President. But too often people make him
