Mr. President, I have come to the floor several times over the last year to warn of the looming threat about Islam infiltrating the United States of America. You know, I know there are people who sometimes roll their eyes when I talk about this, but I express serious concerns about what Islam teaches and how it is incompatible with our Judeo-Christian values. This is why I say that Islam is not a religion. It is a death cult. Don't believe me. Just look at the report that came out recently in the United Kingdom.

Mr. President, I want to talk about a subject people just love to talk about. I have come to the floor to talk about a big scam in our country. It is happening in broad daylight before our very eyes. Politicians here in Washington know what is going on, but they refuse to speak about it. They are too worried about getting reelected in most cases, and they think telling the truth about the scam will hurt their chances of staying in power.
Mr. President, I want to bring up a subject today that is close and dear to my heart. You know, four things that made this country strong--make it the best country in the world--is God, family, military, and sports. You learn a lot of things out of those four. It makes us strong, and we have kept that pretty much in that order for a long, long time. But I would like to say today that I think most--even some of my colleagues in here today--college sports is in trouble, not just men but also women. Before I was elected, I spent 40 years coaching. I coached girls basketball. That was a thrill.
