(1) We support smaller government, smaller national debt, lower deficits and lower taxes by opposing bills like Obama’s “stimulus” bill;

In theory, I suppose, but not the way they mean it. No.

(2) We support market-based health care reform and oppose Obama-style government run health care;

No.

(3) We support market-based energy reforms by opposing cap and trade legislation;

No.

(4) We support workers’ right to secret ballot by opposing card check;

Yes.

(5) We support legal immigration and assimilation into American society by opposing amnesty for illegal immigrants;

No. Very hateful rhetoric there.

(6) We support victory in Iraq and Afghanistan by supporting military-recommended troop surges;

I wouldn't use those words. "Victory" and "Winning" are stupid, but I do support stability in the region. As far as Afghanistan is concerned, yes, I would support an increase in the number of troops there, therefore: Yes.

(7) We support containment of Iran and North Korea, particularly effective action to eliminate their nuclear weapons threat;

Depends what you mean by "effective action". I think it's important to keep nuclear weapons out of their hands, but I don't support intervening militarily at this time. So I guess I'd have to say: Yes, somewhat.

(8 ) We support retention of the Defense of Marriage Act;

Never. No.

(9) We support protecting the lives of vulnerable persons by opposing health care rationing and denial of health care and government funding of abortion; and

No.

(10) We support the right to keep and bear arms by opposing government restrictions on gun ownership.

No.
