Let a RINO in a leftist state like MA>> boot them in places like Arizona (McLame), FL (Crist) and SC (Graham), where a conservative would be quite viable.
Margery Eagan is a socialist and would write anything...the Herald, usually a conservative rag, did an article that did not have any direct quotes, also lacking in Eeeeegan’s hit piece...to put him as far left as they would like people to believe...the problem I have with this and the Herald article is that I don’t see him being quoted DIRECTLY and his official site still shows him to be a hell of a lot more conservative than he is being painted;
Health Care
I believe that all Americans deserve health care coverage, but I am opposed to the health care legislation that is under consideration in Congress and will vote against it.
Economy
I am a free enterprise advocate who believes that lower taxes can encourage economic growth.
Energy and Environment
I support common-sense environment policy that will help to reduce pollution and preserve our precious open spaces. I realize that without action now, future generations will be left to clean up the mess we leave. In order to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, I support reasonable and appropriate development of alternative energy sources such as wind, solar, nuclear, geothermal and improved hydroelectric facilities. I oppose a national cap and trade program because of the higher costs that families and businesses would incur.
Immigration
I welcome legal immigration to this country. However, we are also a nation of laws and government should not adopt policies that encourage illegal immigration.
Veterans
As a Lieutenant Colonel in the Army National Guard, I believe we need to recognize the sacrifice of all of our servicemembers by keeping better track of returning military personnel so they get the services they deserve.
Gun issues
I support the Second Amendment and believe that citizens have the right to keep and bear arms as a basic constitutional liberty. I support safe and responsible gun ownership.
Death penalty
I believe there are some crimes that are so heinous that they deserve capital punishment. Our Government should have the ability to impose the death penalty in cases where it is justified.
Abortion
While this decision should ultimately be made by the woman in consultation with her doctor, I believe we need to reduce the number of abortions in America.
Marriage
I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. States should be free to make their own laws in this area, so long as they reflect the people’s will as expressed through them directly, or as expressed through their elected representatives.
Israel
Israel has made enormous sacrifices in an attempt to secure peace including unilateral withdrawal from Gaza. I support a two-state solution that reaffirms Israels right to exist....
Iran
I support the bi-partisan Iran sanctions bill and believe that until Ahmadinejad gives up his nuclear ambitions he should be isolated from the rest of the world.
Exactly. I have no problems with supporting a moderate Republican in Massachusetts. The other option is a Marxist. You decide.
RINO this, RINO that...the fact is that we don’t have a parliamentary system here, so by nature things will divide themselves among two parties and two parties only, for better or for worse. This will mean conservative Republicans in some states and moderate Republicans in others. It might be nice to where we could have a true conservative party, a libertarian party, a moderate party, and then the Dems would have their socialist party, but it really just won’t happen in the system that we have.
I agree with Scott Brown more than I agree with his opponent. That is good enough for me.
