Brigitte Gabriel gives fantastic answer to Muslim woman claiming all Muslims are portrayed badly

>"turned a once peaceful area of the Middle East into a Hellhole just as they do everywhere they exist"

It is an abomination that causes desolation.

Damn...Ms. Gabriel dismantled that Muslim bitch...I am sooooo over the ‘moderate Muslim’ bullsh*t...when they get the upper hand in this country, you won’t be able to find ONE ‘moderate Muslim’, and you can bet the damn farm on that.

A moderate Muslim is just a radical Muslim out of power.

Word.

Enough of that garbage, that is so last year. The courts would never see it your way and nobody cares. Ted Cruz is a natural born American, wouldn’t matter if he was born on MARS.

Ms. Gabriel is a naturalized citizen (Christan immigrant from Lebanon), so unlike Ted Cruz she cannot be President.

She sounds on the ball, I’d certainly consider offering her post in my administration if I were President

Milk all the time fed in a bottle. Never tackling the more momentous questions of life or the naggy little ones that can undermine faith. I suppose I was blessed to have a group of guys where no question was too dumb or too deep to be looked at in the light of the Scriptures but still it was us whose need for meat drove us together. Eventually your grip on the Bible and it’s sweep becomes your world view then (although at times you may need to check up) things that were at one time puzzles seem to fit - knowledge may become wisdom (at times anyway) and it is far easier to see the world for what it is.

Even if they were not all that bright they could have gone to the minister, elders or any number of others for guidance. The Bible tells us to prepare ourselves for battle (mainly a battle of the mind and heart) but they opened the gates and let in a Trojan horse. Our faith should matter to us enough that we are reasonably well armed enough spiritually, emotionally and mentally so as to not be so easily used as tools.

Rand Slams Congress for Funding Egypt's Generals: 'How Does Your Conscience Feel Now?'
Sen. Rand Paul is hammering his fellow senators for keeping billions in financial aid flowing to Egypt's military -- even as Cairo's security forces massacre anti-government activists. [by "anti-government activists" is meant church-burning Christian-murdering jihadists]

Rand Paul On Shutdown: "Even Though It Appeared I Was Participating In It, It Was A Dumb Idea"
I said throughout the whole battle that shutting down the government was a dumb idea. Even though it did appear as if I was participating in it, I said it was a dumb idea. And the reason I voted for it, though, is that it's a conundrum. Here's the conundrum. We have a $17 trillion debt and people at home tell me you can't give the president a blank check. We just can't keep raising the debt ceiling without conditions. So unconditionally raising the debt ceiling, nobody at home wants me to vote for that and I can't vote for that. But the conundrum is if I don't we do approach these deadlines. So there is an impasse. In 2011, though, we had this impasse and the president did negotiate. We got the sequester. If we were to extend the sequester from discretionary spending to all the entitlements we would actually fix our problem within a few years.

Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...
