Chet Edwards – Pack Your Bags: You’re Fired

At his townhall meetings last August, Chet Edwards stated that the Interstate Commerce Clause means, for him, that he can freely ignore the explicit limitations of government set forth in the Enumerated Powers of the Constitution. Regardless his ultimate vote, Chet Edwards endorses the collectivist mindset that empowers these Intolerable Acts of government.
Chet, for you [...]

Position: Stem-Cell Research

In March 2009, President Obama reversed the ban on new lines of embryonic stem cells placed by President Bush. The left supports the continued use of embryonic stem cells in research because, as a political issue, it blurs the boundaries of where life begins and that makes abortion easier to tolerate.

With increased educational diversity and competition, American children will be much better educated at a greatly reduced cost to government.
Educational expenses create the largest tax burden for State [...]

His economic solution for good [...]
