* Ban semi-automatic weapons and no concealed carry disagree, just enforce the gun laws already on the books.
* Ban the Death Penalty disagree, stop all the appeals that drag on for 15-20 years. kill'em, cremate'm and stop wasting the money.
* Full rights for Gays to marry agree
* Simplify the tax code agree
* No offshore drilling disagree, less dependence on foreign oil and better efficiency on what we are using
* Stem Cell research at further levels agree, if it will help people in the future
* Less farm subsidies unless warranted agree, make the adjustments and stop the abuse.
* Revise "No Child Left Behind" to reasonable standards
* Revisit NAFTA agree and make corrections
* NASA...what does it mean?
* Environment, Environment, Environment
i'd like to see big welfare reform. it will never happen under this administration. my fear this administration gives them even more.

This should be fun..
i usually try and keep my mouth shut in here.

I agree with DD across the board.

* I hate guns, but taking away LEGAL guns won't stop the killings. The criminals find ways through black markets to procure their weapons of choice. My mom's neighborhood is now wired with "ShotSpotter" (ain't that pleasant ) which was supposed to slow down the rampant random shootings... it hasn't. These people must either be sent to jail never to return to society or in the case of an actual death, removed (death penalty).
