    On Veterans Day, we pause to remember the brave American heroes who sacrificed so much to preserve our great nation. Though we celebrate Veterans Day once a year, we reap the benefits of freedom every day. America's courageous sons and daughters deserve to be honored for their tremendous sacrifices. Thank you for your service.

      YOU should have run against Obama Michele. The only thing better than watching Romney lose like that would have been to see you fail much, much worse.

    Thank you again for all the wonderful stories. I received this one in a message and wanted to share it with you:

    ings, and was wise enough to chose adoption. Her older sister and her husband, both former missionaries, were unable to have children after the birth of their first son and so they joyfully adopted the baby. Our beautiful granddaughter is now almost 9 months old and her adoption will be finalized in December. By choosing life, both of my girls were blessed with exactly what the Lord knew they needed; one with a painful but ultimately profitable lesson about choices and consequences, and the other with a baby who is the light of her life but never thought she would have. Life is such a beautiful choice!”

    Over the past four years, food stamp growth is 75 times greater than job creation. Americans are understandably frustrated. The looming ‘fiscal cliff’ isn't helping the job climate. We need to make sure that we stop the tax hike on all Americans—including the job creators.

    Obamacare’s medical device tax, set to kick in next year, will be a major setback in healthcare. The 2.3% excise tax taxes revenue, not profit, meaning start-ups who are loss-making companies will still have to pay. This will cost us both jobs and new production of innovative, life-saving devices.

    A month after announcing a third round of quantitative easing, the Federal Reserve released a statement saying they were going to maintain their current activity of buying mortgage backed securities and printing money indefinitely. The first two rounds failed, and the third already has done little to improve the economy. The Fed needs to rethink this decision before inflation becomes a real concern.

    The burdens, expenses and incompetency surrounding the state exchanges are merely a glimpse into how big a disaster Obamacare is. We must replace Obamacare with a system that allows portability, allows individuals to purchase healthcare across state lines, allows individuals to purchase the plan of their choice, and includes tort reform.

    The recent growth in U.S. oil output, particularly in North Dakota, has us set to overtake Saudi Arabia as the world’s biggest producer. This is only a taste of how competitive the United States could be in the global market if we remove the barriers to domestic energy production.

    If you want to get a glimpse into how dangerous Obamacare is for America, look to Ontario. Canada’s attempt to close a $15 billion deficit has physicians “fighting with the government -- and their own medical association -- over payouts, fees, hours, and what exactly constitutes a proper and appropriate salary for physicians and specialists.” That’s not what we want for America and why we must repeal Obamacare.

    If Obamacare is not repealed, one may only have to look to Ontario, Canada to see the future of healthcare in America.

    Earlier this year, the national debt passed $16 trillion for the first time in American history. According to the latest data released by the Census Bureau, each household owes approximately $47,495 in foreign debt. These are the consequences of our current borrow and spend policies. Americans deserve better.

    When the Democratic-controlled Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act, Americans were promised it would end the era of bailouts and “too big to fail.” They were wrong.
