Tom DeLay's Getting it Right
Tom DeLay
TOM DELAY: Donald Trump patronizing Christian voters
The ideal presidential candidate is a man or woman with God at the core of his or her life and the Constitution at the center of his or her philosophy of government.
TOM DELAY: In Obama’s speech, a conservative call to arms
I found President Obama's State of the Union address this week infuriating — and exhilarating.
TOM DELAY: Conservative rebels trouble GOP-controlled Congress
They say you only get one chance to make first impression, and right now, I'm a little worried about how the new Republican majorities in the House and Senate are coming off in the very first days of the 114th Congress.
TOM DeLAY: Jonathan Gruber, Dianne Feinstein and the consequences of deceit
After years of deception and cover-up, the American people, through the hard work of their congressional representatives, finally learned the ugly truth this week about terrible acts done in their name but without their knowledge. While many of those responsible continue to defend their handiwork, the revelations are sure to leave a permanent stain on those in government who played any role in the atrocities revealed.
TOM DELAY: Forget the race-baiting, let’s debate the real meaning of Ferguson
President Obama is proposing a task force, and — for once — I'm glad that he did.
TOM DELAY: GOP surrender not an option: a call to arms
In the wake of the great Republican midterm triumphs, when the American people decisively rejected the agenda of President Obama and the Democrats, we're already hearing voices counseling moderation — that we should run from a fight with the president before it's even begun.
TOM DeLAY: GOP must be rock steady to fight the spin
The American people better hope Obamacare covers Dramamine, given the furious amount of spin coming out of Washington since the midterm elections.
TOM DELAY: Compromise with whom? GOP must stand firm
That wasn't a wave. That wasn't even a tsunami. Tuesday was a Category 5 political hurricane in which the American people effectively wiped out the entire agenda of President Obama and the Democrats.
TOM DELAY: Prediction: A very good Tuesday for the GOP
The debates are done. The arguments have all been made. The closing ads have all been shot. So let's skip the philosophical debates for one week and just talk about on who's going to win next Tuesday.
TOM DeLAY: Shoot the lame duck and focus on 2015
Forget Nov. 4. Let's talk about Nov. 5.
DeLAY: Zeke Emanuel reveals the progressives’ death wish
When Zeke Emanuel writes a provocative, 5,000-plus-word polemic on why he — and by extension the rest of us — should hope to die at 75 in order to ease the burden on family, friends and society, it can't be written off as the ravings of a rogue intellectual.
DeLAY: A war president whose heart isn’t in it
I majored in biology, not psychology, in college, but I think you can tell a lot about this president by analyzing his body language during this very momentous week.
DeLay: Uncertain trumpet: An anti-war president goes to war
As the Congress and the country debate the momentous question of how to meet the threat posed by the Islamic State and other enemies in the war on terrorism, one thing has become increasingly clear: It's impossible to conduct and win a war when you're led by an anti-war president.
DeLAY: A day to remember, a war to fight
When the first plane hit, I was participating in a press conference so insignificant I can't even recall what the topic was.
DeLAY: Liberal failures and the real lessons of Ferguson
We still don't have all the facts about happened in Ferguson, but we can already draw one big lesson.
DeLAY: Coming together is a primary challenge for GOP this fall
A pair of primaries this week offered an instructive lesson in what Republicans must do — and must not do — as they gear up for battle with President Obama and the Democrats this fall.
DeLAY: Defending an ally and defending the Constitution
Two outrages — one overseas and one right here in Washington — to deal with today, with our president on the wrong side of the issue in both cases.
DeLAY: Obama’s misguided message on immigration
My experience with the immigration issue and the problems posed along the border go a lot farther back than my first political campaign.
DeLAY: Failed policy the real reason Obama skipped a border trip
In a funny way, you can totally understand why President Obama decided in the end not to make the trip down to the border on his trip to Texas this week, to view for himself the failure of his immigration policy and the devastating results of his open-borders approach for Texas and the rest of the border states.
DeLAY: From King George III to King Obama I
"The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."
