Minor Fundraiser at the American Legion Brunch
"First, I would like to thank the fine men in this room for their outstanding sacrifice to this nation. You will never be forgotten, I promise you that.
I stand before you today a man steadfast in his principles. A man whose foundation will not be shaken. The consolidation of Iran & Syria - their dark partnership - is a threat to the security of the United States and it must be stopped!
They have joined their resources to create and harbor weapons of mass destruction, threatened the use of nuclear weapons and detonated them on the border of Iraq, our ally and a home to our brave soliders. Action must be taken.
I can report that the Authorization for Use of Force against Iran and Syria has passed the Houes of Representatives under my leadership. Now, it awaits Senate approval, then goes to the Oval Office for our Commander-In-Chief, President Ward, to have all options on the table. Nothing is more important, at this moment, than for our Commander-In-Chief to have all options open to him, and that is what the House Republicans did, and now the Senate must finish.
Peace is our ultimate goal, but peace cannot be acheived with rogue regimes have the power to harm us, our friends and our allies around the world. We must assemble our courage, and fight for justice and freedom. And that is the promise of this Republican Party.
