I would be delighted to vote for a man like that provided he was a conservative. The poster doesn’t indicate that.

I say after he's elected he walks into congress, lays the weapon down on the table and says "Okay, things are going to be a little different around here boys, this is how we do things now ..."

Look at his website in the issues, he’s amazing. Secure borders, fiscal responsibility, strongly pro-life, supports school choice and homeschooling, lower taxes.... wow. This is the kind of man we need to support!. Does he have any track record at all we can look at?

On the Issues

Taxes and Spending

We must keep taxes low on both individuals and corporations in order to grow our economy and compete in the global marketplace. I support stopping the bailouts and letting the free markets work.

The incumbent portrays herself as a fiscal conservative but she supported the stimulus and the massive debt creating budgets enacted by our current administration. I will work to stop debt creating stimulus spending and reduce the size and scope of our government.

Energy

We need an "all of the above" strategy with regard to energy, including but not limited to: oil, natural gas, clean coal, wind, solar, and nuclear power. While I support the development of alternative and renewable energy I believe the free market should dictate how and when these sources are brought to market, not the heavy hand of the government. Preserving our current supply of energy will allow for affordable energy in the interim as new technologies begin to emerge.

America has vast reserves of energy supplies that are being withheld from use because of political agendas. Unleashing these resources would lower energy costs, lower dependency on foreign sources and increase domestic employment. I support developing our domestic resources in order to increase our economic and political security.

Education

The purpose of an education system should be to teach our children the knowledge and skills they will need to live as free and productive citizens. We should start focusing on how to best accomplish this and worrying less about whether the building is publicly or privately owned. I support school choice efforts and home schooling in addition to a well funded and effective public school system.

Border

Our borders must be secured and America needs an increased presence along our borders in order to halt drug trafficking and gang violence.

Health Care

I oppose Obama-care and the rationing of health care. We must reform tort laws to lower health care costs for all Americans. I support a "health care court" in lieu of the current lottery system that encourages egregious lawsuits.

The FDA needs to be restructured in order to lower the cost of life-saving pharmaceutical drugs. I support an increase in the amount allowed into tax-free health savings accounts.

Sanctity of Human Life

I support and will defend life from conception to natural end.

Second Amendment

The Second Amendment of the Constitution is not just about hunting. It is about the right of a free people to defend themselves which is why I am a strong supporter of the right of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms.

National Defense

We live in a time when our enemies test nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles capable of reaching American interests. Terrorists continue to plot attacks against America and her interests. We must fully fund our nation's military and ensure the men and women in uniform have the tools, training, and care they need and deserve.

Our government has a constitutional obligation to protect its citizens. Border security needs to be a top National Defense priority. I am committed to fully funding vital military systems such as missile defense and upgrading our fighter and bomber fleets.

Duh, you are right. I’m getting too cynical because of all the so-called Republicans that I thought were conservative that turn out not to be. He sounds like the real thing!

If we had 435 guys like this in the House, think about how different our country would be.
