About Me

im000971-2.JPGI am a 41 year old middle class man who was a Democrat until sometime after September 11th. I have a wife and two children, both boys.

I am a fiscal conservative, and somewhat moderate on social issues.

I don’t believe abortion is right. I believe Roe vs. Wade should be overturned. This would not outlaw abortion, it would simply turn it over to the states to decide. The reason I believe Roe vs. Wade should be overturned is not because I believe abortion is wrong, which I do, but because this is a case of the judiciary making law instead of interpreting it. They overstepped their boundries. If a state rules abortion is legal in their state, and a woman wants an abotion in that state I don’t believe I have the right to say she can’t.

I don’t care if someone is a homosexual, but I don’t believe in homosexual marriage. I believe marriage was a religious institution therefore if it contradicts religious beliefs it should not be legal. Besides if you start redefining words it could become a slippery slope nobody wants to go down. Once you start dedefining institutions such as marriage, who knows where it could lead.

I don’t believe in the welfare state, I believe if you eliminate welfare it would force people who don’t want to work for a living to go to work. This in turn would make less jobs available for the illegal immigrants and they would have to go home.

I am tough on illegal immigration, I support a fence, and militarizing the border if neccessary. I believe illegal aliens should be deported when arrested. And I believe companies who hire them should face criminal action also.

I am a hawk on national defence and the military.

I don’t believe government should make laws to protect people from their own stupidity. In other words the Nanny State.I don’t believe the government has the right to regulate smoking in private buisnesses, seatbelts in cars, transfats, and the like.

I don’t believe in high taxes for social programs.

I am a beer drinking, pickup truck driving, gun owning, New Hampshirite, and damn proud of it.
