"America has lost a true political hero. Charlie Wilson's convictions and courage as a member of Congress helped thwart the advancement of the Societ Red Army into the Middle East during the Cold War.
"It took the President less than a week to waiver from the promises in his State of the Union address to lower taxes and cut the record deficit. Instead, his proposed budget increases spending to a record of $3.75trillion next year and more than doubles our nation’s debt over the next five years.
Statement by Congressman McCaul in response to President Obama's State of the Union Address:
State Department to McCaul: Father was not a credible enough source to revoke terror suspect’s visa
"The proposal to cancel the Constellation program has much broader implications than the planned return to the moon. Eliminating this vision for America’s manned space program will put us even further behind in our plans to replace the Space Shuttle at a time when other nations are already challenging our preeminence in space.
"We need to be more proactive and not reactive. The fact that the State Department issued a cable stating Abdulmutallab had been in contact with extremists in Yemen and did not act upon it by revoking his visa was an absolute failure. I am encouraged to see that the President has now directed the State Department to review its processes for issuing and revoking visas.
