M oderator would not be used to defend the barn on samesex marriage even though it was the biggest constitutional challenge the state faces right now. As governor, you would be part of the council that oversees the fund. How should the fund be used, and with would you as governor use it to defend idahos samesex marriage ban .

Joe and i had the foresight a couple years ago to file a bill that would restrict their strip their citizenship, not allow them to hide behind the United States, the rights guaranteed by our constitution, not use that passport freely to come back and north on a whim. We should keep them there, with their new friends. And let them stay there. Right. [applause] unfortunately, it was filed again in this last session. Before they went on their second vacation, two things. They did not close the border and deal with the very serious border threats and they did not also take up that very important bill, as uk has done, as france has done and other countries are doing, because they recognize, hey, lets keep them there. Lets not let them hide. And were not saying, oh, we think these people are on facebook, t
