During last night's debate John Kerry and John Edwards were so friendly to each other some political experts think that they may end up running together. In fact Kerry and Edwards were so friendly President Bush accused them of planning a gay marriage.

The facts are plain: Religious leaders who preside over marriage ceremonies must and will be guided by what they believe. If they do not wish to celebrate marriages for same-sex couples that is their right. The Supreme Court says so. And the Charter says so.

I made a mistake by being ejected from the presidency. Next time I will choose a Cabinet which will allow me to be life President.

If anyone is crazy enough to want to kill a president of the United States he can do it. All he must be prepared to do is give his life for the president's.

The president just as any other American deserves a legal defense against personal lawsuits not related to his office. But the costs of that defense should be borne by him and not the taxpayer.

We do not believe voters gave President Bush a mandate to turn back the clock decades on so many of our legal protections.

Moreover from reforming the tax code to our immigration system to commonsense legal reform President Bush put America on notice that he will continue fighting to make the country and the world a better place for future generations.

It is simply a fact that the birth rate of our illegal immigrants exceeds that of our legal residents.

Human-rights advocates for example claim that the mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners is of a piece with President Bush's 2002 decision to deny al Qaeda and Taliban fighters the legal status of prisoners of war under the Geneva Conventions.
