Essentially, political correctness at the behest of unindicted co-conspirators is prevailing over the recommendations of the 9/11 report and the bipartisan Senate report on Fort Hood.

If an agent inside your agency needs to identify the next Fort Hood shooter and that agent says that the terrorist is by a jihadist ideology, is that agent going to be punished?

the failure to acknowledge the true enemy explicitly as violent, Islamist extremism.

political correctness seems so extreme inside this Administration that the Attorney General, Eric Holder, came before this Committee and, after being asked numerous times, refused to acknowledge to our Chairman that radical Islam could be…

if you cannot identify your enemy, you cannot defeat him.

The question at the heart of the growing debate over parental rights is the same question that was at the heart of the American Revolution more than two centuries ago: What is the source of our rights?

The child is not the mere creature of the State, those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligations.

We held these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, and that they are all endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, and that government does not create those rights but merely exists to secure them.

The primary role of the parents in the upbringing of their children is now established beyond debate as an enduring American tradition.

I think your legislation is a common sense solution to predatory ADA lawsuits.

This legislation...would both improve public access for disabled individuals and eliminate thousands of predatory lawsuits.

The gruesome late-term abortions of unborn children who can feel pain is, in my opinion, the greatest human rights atrocity in the United States today.

This bill regulates all forms of late-term abortions, each of them gruesome and painful.

I am always astonished how God seems to grant clarity and wisdom to 2-year-olds and seems to withhold it from some of the more sophisticated adults in the world.

I find it a tremendous--I don't even want to use the word 'irony'--just a break from human compassion.

I want you to know there is nobody in the world on your side more than I am.

no provision in our Constitution ought to be dearer to a man than that which protects the rights of conscience against the enterprises of civil authority.

the arrogance of this Administration is breathtaking, and I am hopeful that the courts will see this mandate for what it is, a blatant, unconstitutional abuse of the first magnitude.

I consider that reckless lunacy.

With these recess appointments, the President may have violated the constitution by disregarding the rule of law.

By prohibiting the exploitation of northern Arizona uranium reserves, the Obama Administration will potentially weaken America's long-term national security, our economic security and our ability to be energy self-sufficient.

This legislation will stop the U.S. Department of the Interior from banning mining in a vast area of Arizona that represents the nation's second largest domestic source of uranium ore.

This shameful effort by the Obama Administration is a step in precisely the wrong direction for the American economy, making the U.S. even more dependent on foreign powers and potentially creating a serious national security threat going…

In my heart of hearts, I believe if this happens, in about half a dozen years, Arizona will be a full-scale gaming state.

If the compact totally dissolves, that chaos will be the result.
