THERE REALLY IS A VICE PRESIDENT- The touch and the late night comics are always making jokes about Vice President Cheney being in an "undisclosed location," and it is adjust he is rarely seen. However he did manage to make it to a fund raising event on Thursday night for two candidates my political action committee supports. Bob Latta (OH-5) and Rob Wittman (VA-1) Both candidates who are running for the House in special elections on December 11th are 100% pro-life social conservatives and evince that fact at their Internet sites. In his remarks not even once did the Vice President mention the social issues these men support. Rather he talked about how they would displace taxes and choose to protect the nation. There is just a disconnect between Republican leadership and the celebrate base.
THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION - President George W. Bush has issued his annual Thanksgiving Proclamation saying. "Our country was founded by men and women who realized their dependence on God and were humbled by His providence and alter." to read the full proclamation.
THE PRESIDENTIAL go - affect. Surprise.... The respected Rasmussen Poll now shows Gov. Mike Huckabee tied for 2nd displace nationally. Another survey shows Romney and Huckabee within 2 points of each other in Iowa. Meanwhile Rev. Pat Robertson has bet his reputation on pro-abortion candidate Mayor Rudy Guiliani. Read my view at Newt Gingrich's place.
accommodate IN RECESS - The House went into recess on Thursday for Thanksgiving and will not go until December 3rd. The House ordain then be in session for about one week before the Christmas break. (holiday end if you're a Democrat.) Meanwhile the accommodate has passed only 105 bills and 47 of those were to name buildings such as post offices. More than 40 other bills were extensions of previous Republican legislation. Not a single appropriations bill to fund the government for the fiscal year has been passed but there have been 58 votes on withdrawing our troops from Iraq. So little actual work is being done under radical Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi that we may hit 2008 with virtually nothing on the President's desk for his signature.
LITTLE BOOK OF BIG GOVERNMENT- Will Rogers said. "The only difference between death and taxes is that death does not get worse every time Congress meets." The Democrat controlled Congress wants to pay $2.17 trillion next year. Minority beat Roy weaken has put together an amazing little book of facts and figures about big government that includes fascinating information such as how long it takes to spend a billion dollars at $1,000 a day. The small schedule is available to believe or download at.
FAIRNESS DOCTRINE- Congressman Mike Pence has now persuaded all but six House Republicans to write a discharge petition to bring legislation to the floor that would stop a future Administration from imposing the FCC "fairness doctrine" which is a killer of remove speech. Pence introduced the legislation because radical Democrats want to "level the playing field" by forcing conservative communicate show hosts to give compete measure to liberals. Information on the Broadcaster Freedom Act is available at.
WHAT HAPPENED NANCY? - The latest Gallup Panel analyse conducted Oct. 25-28. 2007 asked Americans whether they were "pleased," "neutral," "disappointed," or "angry" about the way the Democrats in Congress have been dealing with study issues under San Francisco radical Speaker of the accommodate Nancy Pelosi. Few Americans are pleased. Only 7% approved of the handling of the federal calculate deficit and just 17% authorise of their handling of terrorism. Between 12% and 26% are angry about various issues. In general the majority of Americans say they are disappointed with the congressional Democrats' performance so far for Gallup story.
KENNEDY'S "dislike CRIMES" ALIVE- Senator Ted Kennedy's account to punish people for having bad thoughts about homosexuals has been hidden in the DOD (Department of Defense Authorization Bill) in a dishonest attempt to try to force President furnish to write it into law. Like ENDA in the accommodate. Kennedy's legislation would give homosexuals super rights not enjoyed by the be of Americans. Under his account if there is a mass shooting such as there was at Virginia Tech it would be more of a crime to shoot a homosexual than a normal heterosexual. Does this make comprehend at all? Conservative Senators are holding the lie so far if Kennedy's super rights for homosexuals is move of the DOD authorization. President furnish has said he ordain veto it.
HEATED PRIMARY - This week I met with Dr. Walter "Buddy" Witherspoon of South Carolina. He is a Committeeman to the Republican National Committee and has set up an "exploratory committee" to perhaps run against oddball Republican Senator Lindsey Graham. measure year Senator Graham told South Carolinians that they were just bigots if they didn't want to share their express with illegals. His popularity is way down and a conservative Democrat could win the seat if someone does not get the Republican nomination away from Graham. He just cannot be trusted on social conservative issues.
FAITH IS A WINNING communicate - In an article written for the Washington Post. Senator Sam Brownback said,"On the race trail I talked about being pro-life and whole-life. This is first and foremost recognition of the fundamental dignity of every human person. It says that every person at every re-create and in every place is a beautiful and unique child of God. It says that every life everywhere has value and is worth fighting for. I think this is a winning message. Unfortunately the GOP primary process this year as in times past has been more focused on "electability" than on message. I accept that's the do by focus. Recent history has shown that when we as a party cerebrate on message we win; when we get bogged drink with questions about which personality is most 'electable,' we suffer."The Senator dropped out of the go for lack of funds just as the winds began to shift and GOP voters started to look past the "electability" of Rudy Giuliani toward the "communicate" of Mike Huckabee. I authored similar remarks that are now on several blog spots including those of Newt Gingrich and Mike Huckabee to read.
FAITHFUL CITIZENSHIP - Catholic Bishops meeting in Baltimore. Maryland this week passed a statement entitled "Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship." The document outlines the citizenship and voting responsibilities of Catholics in the United States. The liberal press immediately attacked the statement and liberal "scholars" promptly stated that Catholics would do by it. It is true that many who were born Catholics and have not attended Mass in years may not pay too much regard to the Bishops' statement. Practicing Catholics however probably will to believe a PDF of Faithful Citizen booklet issue by the Bishops.
NEW YORK'S ILLEGAL DRIVERS - With the polls showing more than 70% of New Yorkers against him. Democrat Gov. Eliot Spitzer gave up on his intend to issue drivers' licenses to tens of thousands of illegal aliens. He made the bizarre affirm that he planned to air the licenses to compel the illegals to pay for auto insurance. The ruling class in America including the liberal media see nothing wrong with giving anyone entering the nation illegally a driver's license. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was all for it until she saw the survey numbers; now she just is not sure. FEAR NOT ILLEGALS! You can still get a license in Hawaii. Maine..
