What actually makes you the angriest? What was your angriest moment and how did you survive without exploding?

Mr. McCall

On your website, votemccall.com, there is an issues page. I have several questions about this.

1) You make a point about referring to George Bush and Obama. Why does Obama not get a first name?

2) How exactly does higher levels of income tax lead to a declaration of victory on the Clean Air Clean Water act? Do higher taxes make air and water cleaner somehow?

3) What sort of Audit of the Federal Reserve are you talking about, specifically?

4) You ask why the Air Force requires it's own weather bureau. Are you referring to the Air Force Weather Agency? If you believe that it's unnecessary, where would you suggest the Department of Defense goes to obtain meteorological information? I'm not sure how many people you've spoken to in regards to the intricacies of military planning, but weather is a fairly important factor for all branches of the military.

EDIT/ADDENDUM: "Why can’t they all share. My kids have to share their room."

Who would you like them to share with?

5) You say, and I quote "The second Amendment is not about hunting or protecting your family from robbers. It is about tyranny and its avoidance. So far it has worked out pretty well for us." What would you say to people who argue that we are living under tyranny right now?

6) You promise: "I will fight for the rights of the unborn at every given opportunity." Can you explain exactly what those rights are and where we can find them codified?

7) Your site has a number of grammatical errors and typos in it. After having read it, do you still believe that the Department of Education is not needed? Are you for English as the national language, and how does it speak to your campaign if the individual who designed what is arguably the most important primary platform for a candidate, the website, does not use English in the correct manner?

8) EDIT: You say earlier on in the document that our politicians are "kissing our babies while selling our children into slavery." Could you define for us, please, your understanding of what slavery is?

Thank you.

I can understand both examples, even though I only lived through one. The US sucks sometimes.

Thank you so much, Sir, and thank you for your service.

This is something that was brought up in a previous AMA, and I don't want to get it wrong, so I figured I'd go close to the source.

a) In terms of planning military operations, how important is accurate meteorological knowledge?

b) Do any other branches of the military use the USAF Weather Bureau or do they have their own?

c) Do you ever rely on foreign weather bureaus in terms of planning?

It's weirdly specific, I know. Sorry about that sir.

Thanks!
