I'm For Tax Reform, Not Tax Increases.

Twenty-five Years Ago, I Created The Taxpayer Protection Pledge At The Federal Level. Then I Brought It To The State And Local Level. About 97 Percent Of The Republicans In The House And 85 Percent In The Senate Have Signed On, And The Number Of Candidates Who Have Taken The Pledge Is Even Higher. It's Become A Party Position.

Less Government, Less Regulation, Lower Taxes.

Once The Minority Of House And Senate Are Comfortable In Their Minority Status, They Will Have No Problem Socializing With The Republicans. Any Farmer Will Tell You That Certain Animals Run Around And Are Unpleasant, But When They've Been Fixed, Then They Are Happy And Sedate. They Are Contented And Cheerful. They Don't Go Around Peeing On The Furniture And Such.

We Are Trying To Change The Tones In The State Capitals, And Turn Them Toward Bitter Nastiness And Partisanship.

I Read Murder Mysteries. I Exercise 40 Minutes A Day. I Watch Videotapes While I Exercise. I Listen To Audiotapes When I Am In My Car. And I Try To Stay In Three Different Centuries.
