I was deeply disappointed when I saw what was proposed here. The $16 million is--I mean, it is stunningly--if we are going to--if we are going to pursue the porcupine theory of how to defend Taiwan, I mean, the $16 million is--does not even pay carfare over there, it seems like to me.

The beauty of the Constitution of the United States is that the legislative branch is a co-equal branch of government to the executive branch, and you can actually do stuff.
As we celebrate 250 years of Independence, we must remember the sacrifices made to secure it and recommit ourselves to the ideals that have defined our great nation for centuries: freedom, faith, hard work, equality, and the Rule of Law.
Vicki and I wish Idahoans and all Americans a safe and joyful Independence Day!
