Acting is seductive. It looks so much fun. I did dally with other things.

It looked like a hideous amount of work, when actors were having nice lunches and discussing books.

I do go against my leadership all the time because I stand firm on the four questions that I ask about all legislation. The first, is it constitutional according to the original intent? The second, does it fit the Judeo-Christian Biblical principles that our nation is founded upon? Third, do we need it? Fourth, can we afford it?
