My Views as a Republican:
I Believe the proper function of government is to do for the people those things that have to be done but cannot be done, or cannot be done as well, by individuals, and that the most effective government is government closest to the people.
I Believe good government is based upon the individual and that each person's ability, dignity, freedom, and responsibility must be honored and recognized.
I Believe the free enterprise and the encouragement of individual initiative and incentive have given this nation an economic system second to none.
I Believe sound money management should be our goal.
I Believe in equal right, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, age, sex or national origin.
I believe that we as the world's only superpower, Should be involved in world affairs. The United Nations is a joke and should be shut down.
I believe that Iran, North Korea and Russia are real threats and should be delt with seriously
I believe that Pakistan is on the brink of civil-war and believe that Pakistan should allow the United States to track and kill Al Qaeda and Taliban militants thugs. That are planning attacks on coalition forces in Afghanistan, and not doing so would be cause to cut funding to Pakistan
I believe that Guantanamo should remain open, and feel that the thugs that are held there should remain there . Where they don't hurt more people
I Believe we must retain those principles of the past worth retaining, yet always be receptive to new ideas with an outlook broad enough to accommodate thoughtful change and varying points of view.
I believe that Americans value and should preserve their feeling of national strength and pride, and at the same time share with people everywhere a desire for peace and freedom and the extension of human rights throughout the world.
I Believe the Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government.
I believe if the "forces of secularism" go unchecked, they will destroy America as we know it.
I believe the Chairman of the Democratic Party is "one of the biggest cowards in the country"
I believe voters who trusted the Democratic party in the elections of 2008. Will soon realize their mistake and the Democratic Party will loose power in the United States Congress in 2010.The poles in the summer of 2007. That show that most americans don't trust the Democratic Party. The only reason for the power they gained. Is simply because most Americans lost faith in the Republican Party in the 2008 elections.. The need is there to go back to the foundations that our party was built on.
I believe that English is the official language of the United States and therefore if you come here learn it!
I believe that Moveon.org is currently the most dangerous organization in the United States of America, and the NAACP is the second most dangerous, and the ACLU is third.
I consider global warming a concern.But feel that it is a natural thingI
'm an outspoken opponent of former president Bill Clinton and Janet Reno, Reno I believe is the worst attorney general in history.
I Support stricter border controls including placement of the National Guard troops and a border fence on the US-Mexican border and using the American military to enforce the United States-Mexico border.
I support a flat tax for those making over $30,000 a year, and feel that those making under $30,000 a year. Should only pay 3% income tax.
I support the expansion of job security and entitlement programs.
I support domestic surveillance programs as a measure of keeping America safe.
I support the "Don't ask don't tell" policy and oppose openly declared homosexuals in the military.
I support the legalization of marijuana and prostitution as crime prevention if taxed and controlled by the government.
I support placing higher taxes on vehicles that consume more gas.
I support the death penalty
I support income-based affirmative action.
I support gun control, but believe that the 2nd admendment needs to be protected.
I support a woman's right to choose, but believe that life begins at conception not birth. I believe that only in cases where the life of the mother are at risk, is the only time when abortions are acceptable. The idea of partial birth abortions, where a baby is partally born, then has it's brain sucked out. Is a form of torture, that should be punishable by death.
I support free speech when done with the right way. But oppose any demeaning statements by those who choose to speak on a public stage. To attempt to harm the country, the office of the President, jeer our troops, burn or otherwise disgrace the American flag, and embolden those who seek to destroy America and it's allies England and Isreal. In my opinion are grounds for treason.
I support a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage and support same-sex civil unions. I voted for admendment 2 in the 2008 Florida General Election. Which defines marriage as the union of 1 man and 1 woman.
I support a Constitutional Amendment banning flag burning.
I support a guest-worker program for legal immigrants, and a foot in the ass for all illegal immigrants. That are here ruining the American way of life.
I supported the Impeachment of Bill Clinton.
I supported federal intervention by Republican politicians in the Terri Schiavo controversy to reinstate her feeding tube.
I supported the war in Iraq from the begining and believe it is still the correct theatre of battle at this time in the war on terror, and that despite democratic claims. We are winning this battle for Iraq. (PEOPLE THE SERGE WORKED). I'm now afraid that President Obama. Will pull our troops before their ready to come home. Setting a timetable for withdraw. Will not only destablize the middle east. But put America open to another attack, here on American soil.
I supported President Clinton's opposition to Slobodan Miloevic.
I supported President Bush's choice to pardon Louis Libby.
I oppose intelligent design and Darwin's theroy of evolution being discussed in science classes in public schools.
I oppose the inheritance tax.
I oppose any effort by House Democrats or President Obama to attempt to bring charges against President Bush. Which I believe will happen after he leave office in 2009.
I oppose criticism of free-market economics in the oil industry.
I oppose big American government.I oppose race-based affirmative action, and certain groups that believe that they are to have every thing given to them. Based on past mistakes of the American Government and private companies.
I oppose Embryonic stem cell research, & Human Cloning.
I oppose income redistribution aka Spreading the Wealth
I opposed the Seige at Waco on April 19, 1993, and believe that this raid is the reason behind what happened 2 years later in Oklahoma City.
I opposed the Seige south of Miami in 2000. To send Elian Gonzalas back to Cuba. This boy's mother died so he could have a free life here in America. Only to have Janet Reno produce this raid and destroy this little boy's dream.
The vote November 4th, 2008 didn't change a thing. Let's tell the Democracts where they can stick their negative and out of touch politics. Republicans might be down but not out. 24 months until the 2010 Mid-term Election.Signed,Stephen L PoindexterThis material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed. 2008 Jacksonville, Fl/ Sun Valley, Id.
