I believe my right to own a gun should not be infringed because some nut is going to take a gun and use it wrongfully.

It is my belief that the Supreme Court would allow the Congress to write a law that said the homeland is part of the battlefield.

The idea that America has gaps in her defenses is really a timely topic.

I do not think banning handguns makes me safer, because every criminal who wants a gun seems to be able to get one.

I want to keep that charge available to our government.

There is no constitutional right to get on an airplane without being screened.

the signal to the rest of the world, our credibility, the appearances of what it shows, as far as our good faith, is important.

I am almost stunned that anyone in this Senate would accept as an impossibility that America...could never develop a missile defense system.

The United States is a protector of many and a threat to none. Russia is a protector of none and a threat to many.
