NoVa Tea Party Patriots

2011-03-28T14:41:00.001-04:00

Continuing Revolution Rally

When: Thursday, March 31, 2011 at 12pm

Where
Robert A. Taft Memorial, Washington, DC (North West of the Capitol Building, Directly West of Upper Senate Park). Click on map to go to Google for directions.

Why
Patriots across the nation spoke loudly last November. You voted for change. You voted for real fiscal leadership.

Unfortunately Washington doesn’t get it. President Obama and the Reid Senate continue to ignore the fiscal crisis while the House dithers around the edges of spending cuts. We need bold leadership and we need it now. IT’S TIME TO ACT. Join us on the National Mall this week to turn up the heat on entrenched Washington politicians.

Tell them:
· You want the full $100 billion in cuts they promised
· You want the $105 million for Obamacare implementation cut now.
· You expect the courage to lead us out of the financial hole Washington has dug.
Join the Tea Party Patriots Continuing Revolution Rally on the National Mall this Thursday.

While American families have been forced to pair back their budgets President Obama doubles down on costly programs like Obamacare and high speed trains we can’t afford. This week Harry Reid will participate in a rally to protect entitlements. That’s not leadership. That’s just plain irresponsible governing.

We can’t kick this can down the road again. It’s time to make a stand and put the screws to the Washington establishment. Join the Continuing Revolution this week.

Confirmed Speakers:
Tea Party Patriots Co-Founders Jenny Beth Martin and Mark Meckler,Rep Mike Pence (IN), Rep. Michele Bachmann (MN), Rep. Steve King (IA),
Rep. Louie Gohmert (TX), Rep. Jim Jordan (OH), Rep. Tom Graves (GA),
Andrew Langer, President of The Institute for Liberty,

Virginia Judge Rules Obamacare UNCONSTITUTIONAL!

2010-12-13T12:24:00.007-05:00

We Won Round One!

From Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli,

Today, a federal judge in Richmond ruled the individual mandate of the federal health care law UNCONSTITUTIONAL!

In other words - we won!

This won't be the final round, as this will ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court, but today is a critical milestone in the protection of the Constitution.

I am still fully digesting the court's ruling, so I'll get back to you again later with more details, but I wanted you to hear the good news right away.

Thank so many of you for your support to become the Attorney General of Virginia, and your support since then. Today is a day to celebrate those same first principles that our founding fathers articulated over 200 years ago.

We are proud to defend their work and the same first principles today in the 21st century.

Sincerely,

Ken Cuccinelli, II

Attorney General of Virginia

Web Censorship Bill Sails Through Senate Committee

2010-11-19T10:40:00.003-05:00

COICA would allow the federal government to censor the internet without due process.

Because it is so ill-conceived and poorly written, the law professors wrote, “the Act, if enacted into law, will not survive judicial scrutiny, and will, therefore, never be used to address the problem (online copyright and trademark infringement) that it is designed to address. Its significance, therefore, is entirely symbolic — and the symbolism it presents is ugly and insidious. For the first time, the United States would be requiring Internet Service Providers to block speech because of its content.”

Scholars, lawyers, technologists, human rights groups and public interest groups have denounced the bill. Forty-nine prominent law professorscalled it “dangerous.” (pdf.) The American Civil Liberties Union and Human Rights Watch warned the bill could have “grave repercussions for global human rights.” (pdf.) Several dozen of the most prominent internet engineers in the country — many of whom were instrumental in the creation of the internet — said the bill will “create an environment of tremendous fear and uncertainty for technological innovation.” (pdf.) Several prominent conservative bloggers, including representatives from RedState.com, HotAir.com, The Next Right and Publius Forum, issued a call to help stop this “serious threat to the Internet.”

How Come Members of Congress Investments Made Money?

2010-11-17T13:25:00.002-05:00

The rest of us were wiped out and they made a killing...

CNBC reports

Stock holdings are among the assets covered in the report, and the investing tastes of Congress appear to be somewhat conventional, with large-cap, Dow 30 members dominating the widely-held list.

General Electric [GE 15.87 0.01 (+0.06%) ] , parent company of CNBC, is No. 1, with 82 current members of Congress listing it. Rounding out the top five are:Bank of America [BAC 11.729 -0.211 (-1.77%) ] (63), Cisco Systems [CSCO 19.58 0.145 (+0.75%) ](61), Proctor & Gamble [PG 63.415 -0.035 (-0.06%) ](61) and Microsoft [MSFT 25.745 -0.065 (-0.25%) ](54).

In another context, however, Beltway watchers might find it unsettling that some of the most widely-held stocks are those of companies at the center of the financial crisis in 2008-2009.

In addition to Bank of America, Goldman Sachs [GS 165.53 0.43 (+0.26%) ] , Wells Fargo[WFC 26.91 -0.28 (-1.03%) ] , JPMorgan Chase [JPM 39.19 -0.42 (-1.06%) ] and Citigroup[C 4.185 -0.035 (-0.83%) ] were popular holdings. All of them received funding under the TARP. Morgan Stanley, General Motorsand AIG are not on the list.

Another big sector is health care-drugs, which, like financial services, was the subject of major reform legislation in 2009.

Drug industry giants like Pfizer [PFE 16.5793 -0.0207 (-0.12%) ] , for instance, ranked seventh on the list, with 49 members disclosing ownership. RivalsJohnson & Johnson [JNJ 63.12 -0.02 (-0.03%) ] andMerck [MRK 34.6862 0.5862 (+1.72%) ] also made the list of 50 companies.

Look Who's Making Money from the TSA Scanners

2010-11-17T11:15:00.003-05:00

George Soros and Michael Chertoff are profiting off controversial new TSA scanner

Be sure and read Tim Carney’s Examiner column today on the politically-connected lobby for the controversial new TSA scanners that are upsetting airline employees and travelers everywhere. Carney notes that a company called Rapiscan got a $165 million contract for the new body image scanners four days after the underwear-bomber incident this past Christmas. Not surprisingly, Rapiscan is politically connected, observes Carney:

Rapiscan got the other naked-scanner contract from the TSA, worth $173 million. Rapiscan’s lobbyists include Susan Carr, a former senior legislative aide to Rep. David Price, D-N.C., chairman of the Homeland Security Subcommittee. When Defense Daily reported on Price’s appropriations bill last winter, the publication noted “Price likes the budget for its emphasis on filling gaps in aviation security, in particular the whole body imaging systems.”

Then this morning Carney also noted that former Homeland Security secretary Michael Chertoff was flacking for Rapiscan.

As for the company’s other political connections, it also appears that none other than George Soros, the billionaire funder of the country’s liberal political infrastructure, owns 11,300 shares of OSI Systems Inc., the company that owns Rapiscan. Not surprisingly, OSI’s stock has appreciated considerably over the course of the year. Soros certainly is a savvy investor.

The reason why Liberals/ Progressives will always be a minority and never really be a threat to this country is because the majority of Americans will never adopt hatred and insanity as a political ideology.

One-Term Barack

If President Obama is smart, he will try to salvage his term in the White House by announcing now that he will not undertake a hopeless campaign for reelection, and instead form a bipartisan national unity government to try to hold the nation together until his successor, inevitably a Republican, is selected in November 2012.

Historically, incumbent presidents who have sought another term have won them by a two-to-one margin. Those aren’t impressive odds. How many of us would bet on a horse with minimal chances like that? Since 1900 only one incumbent president whose party captured the White House from the other party four years earlier (Jimmy Carter) has been beaten. The other incumbent losers—Taft, Hoover, Ford, and the senior Bush—were from a party that had held the White House for two or more consecutive terms. But the key is that Carter and Obama are practically twins; both won the Nobel Peace Prize. Enough said. Moreover, the present moment is unprecedentedly perilous for an incumbent president. There’s really no comparison in the existence of the American Republic, save for about a dozen crises like the Civil War, economic panics, the Great Depression, world wars, and 9/11.

Democrats may also place false hope in the fact that the next presidential election will have a turnout twenty full percentage points higher than we saw in the midterm—probably about 40 million more people than voted on Nov. 2. No doubt these “midterm-missing” voters are disproportionately 18-34 years old and members of minority groups, segments of the population that backed President Obama by margins ranging from 62% to 95% in 2008. Obama can’t seem to get them to cast a ballot except when he’s on the ballot. Well, yes, he’ll be on the ballot in 2012, but they’re likely disillusioned with him, too.

Like Webb, Warner Wants Us to Forget he Voted with Obama

This hypocrite thinks he is going to fool Virginians by pretending he's a blue dog democrat. Virginian's aren't stupid, and for those who are gullible, there are plenty of us who will remind them of Warners votes for Obamacare, Tarp and other dangerous bills that Obama Reid and Pelosi sent through the Senate.

Keep and eye on our two slim ball Senators as they move to the center in the next two years and the left wing blogs and journalists over at Wa Po are going to help them by pretending to be against them.

The Government Can!

2010-11-07T03:43:00.000-05:00

Fabulous!

Thanks New York and California

2010-11-07T03:28:00.005-05:00

Thanks to New York , California and democrats, we're in for a heck of a time. From what I've heard there is already a movement under way to stop the Feds from bailing out both states. Those people voted for the mess they're in, let them pay the consequences...

Indebted and Unrepentant

New York and California stand virtually alone against the rest of the country.

This sets up what could be an ugly fight in which a Tea Party–inflected national Republican Party, encouraged by its strength in the interior states, forces California and New York—now heavily dependent on federal subsidies—to reduce their spending sharply. The coastal giants would no doubt respond by threatening defaults, which could affect the credit standing of the entire country, since many of the bonds are held by foreign investors. The upshot would likely be a high-stakes conflict about free trade, globalization, social class, race, illegal immigration, and public-sector unionism.

Another District 11 Update

2010-11-07T03:17:00.001-05:00

from Anthony Bedell

1. No winner has been declared in the 11th Congressional District Election, which remains one of the closest elections in the country. Three days after the closing of the polls, the difference in votes for Keith Fimian and Gerald Connolly is less than 1,000 votes out of over 220,000 cast in the election -- well within the margin for a recount in Virginia.

2. Right now, each locality in the 11th Congressional District is winding up a post-election canvass, including counting provisional ballots. The canvass is a legal process in which local officials literally reconstruct the results of the election one voting machine and one precinct at a time, to ensure that all votes validly cast in the election are counted fairly and accurately. Once the local canvass is finished, including provisional ballots, the local officials will send the election returns to Richmond for further review by state election officials, who will certify the official results of the election later this month.

3. The canvass is a public process, and our observers have been monitoring it since the minute it began.

4. There are several developments in the Fimian - Connolly race that may call into question the accuracy of the current vote totals.

Here are the issues that are being looked at:

In Fairfax County, the voting machines failed to register votes from over 800 ballots, including 106 in the Sideburn precinct alone. (Keith Fimian won that precinct 58% - 40%.) In Prince William County, the machines failed to register votes on more than 200 additional ballots.
In several precincts, there were actually more votes than voters. That is, voting machines reported a higher number of votes than the number of voters marked on the pollbooks as having voted in the election.
As of Election Day, there were over 1,150 absentee ballots that had been mailed out to military and other overseas voters but had yet to be received back in the 11th Congressional District.
We also understand that officials in Prince William County rejected over 280 absentee ballots, with another 200-300 absentee ballots being rejected in Fairfax County.

So the process is unfolding as set forth in the law and these are some of the questions that are being considered at this time.

Tea Party Movement No Longer Funny

2010-11-04T08:34:00.003-04:00

"We the people" did it and they're not laughing anymore! I think they finally HEARD US But are they Listening?
Mark Tapscott weighs in..
"the Tea Party movement - have in less than two years not merely changed American politics, but reversed its direction entirely.
Tuesday's results make clear the Tea Party is the most dynamic and successful grass-roots political movement since Thomas Jefferson and James Madison organized the Democratic-Republican revolt against John Adams and the Federalists in 1800.
They did so because they did exactly what they should have done. Instead of fighting specific issues and causes like Card Check and cap-and-trade, they ignored their critics while focusing their energies on finding, fielding, funding and fueling candidates for elected office at every level of government, but especially for Congress.
They worked within the system in the most direct way possible by defining the decisive issues of the 2010 campaign and putting forth candidates to replace Washington officials who refused to listen to the people during the long, hot summer of Town Hall protests in 2009.
Tea Partiers should prepare for a Long March rather than a quick fix. As Ronald Reagan put it, we didn't get into this mess overnight and we won't get out of it overnight either.
That means finding another great crop of congressional candidates for 2012 and 2014. It also means the presidential race should NOT be a Tea Party priority. Presidents stand on the bridge barking commands, to be sure, but we can thank the Founders for putting Congress in charge of the rudder.
There is, after all, a reason the Constitution makes Congress the first branch.

VA 11 UPDATE

2010-11-04T08:29:00.003-04:00

From the Fimian Campaign

As you know, we are locked in one of the closest congressional elections in the country. The unofficial election night returns showed a razor-thin difference of about 400 votes between the candidates out of over 220,000 cast. Today we have been working through the post-election canvass process in which local elections officials scrub and double-check the unofficial election night totals, review provisional ballots, and send their results to Richmond for certification by state officials later this month. At this minute, we still do not know what those results will be.

The post-election process is first and foremost a legal process which aims to ensure that all ballots lawfully cast in the election are counted, and that the resulting votes are tabulated accurately. This process has required us to hire an experienced election lawyer and continue paying staff to engage a strike force of several dozen volunteers who are vigilantly monitoring the process for us.

Keith has been very grateful for your support of his message of creating jobs and reducing spending, but now we need to turn to you again and ask for an urgent on-line contribution to pay campaign expenses to support our post-election efforts and bring home a hard-fought victory.

Virginia District 11 Results in Limbo...

2010-11-03T19:24:00.005-04:00

This is what happens when "someone" screws with the machines.

washington examiner

In the still-undecided congressional race between incumbent Democrat Gerald Connolly and Republican challenger Keith Fimian, both sides on Wednesday claimed they would ultimately prevail in a contest that could come down to a recount.
Some provisional ballots, those cast by voters who had en
countered a problem at the polls, were still being counted Wednesday and precinct totals were being double-checked. But the Connolly campaign claimed the math was on their side and Connolly delivered what amounted to a victory speech late Tuesday, even though Fimian has not yet conceded the race.

Depending on what vote tallies reveal, a recount is a distinct possibility. There are no automatic recounts in the state. The losing candidate can request one after the election results are certified if the margin is 1 percent or less of the total votes cast in the race.
But Tim Edson, Fimian's campaign manager, stressed that their focus on Wednesday was simply on getting the outstanding votes counted.

"We're optimistic that when all the votes are counted that Keith will be the next congressman for the 11th District," he said.

The board of elections will meet to certify the election results on Nov. 22. Fimian would have until Dec. 2

This was a Tsunami

The North Carolina Legislature is Republican for the first time since 1870. Yes, that is Eighteen Seventy.

The Alabama Legislature is Republican for the first time since 1876.

For those saying this is nothing because it is the South, consider these:

The entire Wisconsin and New Hampshire legislatures have flipped to the GOP by wide margins.

The State Houses in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio, Iowa, Montana, and Colorado flipped to the GOP.

The Maine and Minnesota Senates flipped to the GOP.

The Texas and Tennessee Houses went from virtually tied to massive Republican gains. The gains in Texas were so big that the Republicans no longer need the Democrats to get state constitutional amendments out of the state legislature.

These gains go all the way down to the municipal level across the nation. That did not happen even in 1994.

Voting Machines "Malfunctioned" in Fairfax

2010-11-03T04:49:00.003-04:00

I got this email late last night....

Team Fairfax-
Here is a quick update on the race in the 11th Congressional District. Currently Keith Fimian sits 487 votes down in the total count. There are currently two machines in two different precincts in Fairfax County that malfuncioned. They are sealed and are locked up in the Fairfax County Government Center.
Those machines will be broken open and counted at 8AM and once that process is completed and verified, we will then proceed to the 9AM canvass. Once the canvass is complete, and the count becomes official, we will then determine what the next steps are per a recount.
Stay tuned, we will have an update as soon as possible.
Respectfully,
Anthony Bedell

I wonder if the SEIU was in charge of these machines too..

And the Winners Are.....

VOTER FRAUD IN VIRGINIA, TOO..

2010-10-29T10:50:00.002-04:00

From the Richmond Register..

Warning of possible fraud, Richmond's registrar Kirk Showalter said yesterday that someone has been going door-to-door in Richmond soliciting sensitive information in the guise of registering people to vote.

"The public needs to know that my office is not conducting any such drive and, if we did, my staff would show the proper identification before asking such information," she said.

The person was going door-to-door and identifying himself as being with "the local voter registration office," Showalter said.

The person told a householder that he wasn't registered to vote and that, if they gave him their personal information (name, date of birth, social security number and address), then he could get him registered to vote.

The person had no voter registration applications and did not provide any identification, Showalter said.

"My concern is fraud," she said.

Gee, I wonder which party is responsible? Be diligent this Tuesday, if you vote using the machine, make sure your vote goes through properly. Make sure they are checking ID's at the poll, watch for anything suspicious... and even if you're unsure, report any suspicions to both poll watchers who are there.

Letter from Former Democrats to Rush Limbaugh

2010-10-28T12:30:00.003-04:00

Life long democrats and Hillary supporters working hard to defeat the Democrat Party and take down, Reid Pelosi and Obama...

AWESOME!

here is an excerpt..

During the campaign, Donna Brazile famously said that the Democrat Party no longer needed the people Obama once described as “bitter, religion-and-guns-clinging, Midwesterners”. Brazile took this further and said, outright, that the Democrat party did not need blue-collar white voters, the Jacksonian voters, the Hillary voters, because the party was “Obamafied” and would win elections for generations with the Obama coalition of blacks, Leftist elites, Hispanics, low information gay voters, and self-hating Jews.

This is all the Democrats have left, Rush.

Speaking from personal experience, as someone who has worked in fundraising for over 10 years and who has been a part of every presidential campaign since 1992, the Democrats have permanently alienated tens of millions of people who normally turned out reliably every year not just to vote Democrat, but also to write checks and otherwise participate in campaigns.

No more. Never again.

Here in Chicago, just about everyone who was part of Team Hillary efforts with me on the ground has completely divorced themselves from the Democrat Party. Being called a racist repeatedly and hearing from Donna Brazile that we are not needed will do that to a person.

But in a bigger sense, Democrats, by being so shameless and aggressive with the voter fraud in 2008 have opened too many eyes for us to ever go back to pretending that fraud and corrupt practices aren’t the hallmark of the Democrat Party.

There was a show on ABC a few years ago called Alias starring Jennifer Garner in which she played a woman working for a company called Credit Dauphine…which she was told was a front for a CIA organization called SD6. Garner’s character, Sidney Bristow, carried out her missions for SD6, overlooking different things the organization did that she might not have liked, because she thought she was doing what was best for the country. And then, one day, Sidney learned SD6 was actually an enemy of America…that it’s real mission was to destroy the country…that everything Sidney was told about SD6 was a lie. The mask came off SD6, and Sidney Bristow realized she had to work aggressively to take the whole enterprise down.

Rush (and his listeners), please hear me on this because you will not read this in the media — but just about every one of us from the Hillary 2008 campaign is a Sidney Bristow today.

Those of us who worked Democrat campaigns in the past put up with union associations and the other unsavory aspects of being a Democrat because we were told this was the only way Democrats could win…with union muscle. But, in 2008 the Democrats revealed themselves to be an SD6 conglomeration of every force in this country that wants to bring America down, tank our economy, usurp our Constitution, and lay waste to the American way of life.

Democrats took off the mask. The DNC reveled in being fully Leftist-controlled. Crazy people unapologetic in their Communist admiration took over positions of great influence not just in the DNC, but in our state and federal governments as well.

I’m horrified by that.

Hillary supporters are horrified by that.

And we have not sat back quietly to allow this to happen without a fight.

I know for a fact that people I worked with on the Hillary 2008 campaign have been actively working against every single Democrat who supported Obama’s nomination. Everyone who backstabbed Hillary Clinton is being undermined and sabotaged by people who might still be registered as Democrats but have no more loyalty to the party. Sometimes, conservative sites try to make this into a “sour grapes” sort of “Hillary’s revenge” meme — and there might be a taste of this in what’s going on — but the real driving force is that we former Democrats saw just how insane these people really are and we are now doing everything we can, behind the scenes, to use everything we know about the Democrat Party to collapse it from within.

NOW Endorses Jerry Brown For Governor One Day After He Called Whitman a “Whore”

2010-10-09T08:23:00.003-04:00

via weasel zippers
Unreal.. NOW has nothing to do with womens issues, they are just a liberal group

(LA Times)- Jerry Brown announced he has received the endorsement of the National Organization for Women, less than 24 hours after the emergence of a recorded message in which Brown can be heard in a conversation with advisors in which someone calls Whitman a “whore.” Coincidence? You be the judge.

Whitman’s campaign pounced after the audio was made public, sending out a release Thursday night from spokeswoman Sarah Pompei calling the use of the term “an insult to both Meg Whitman and to the women of California. This is an appalling and unforgivable smear against Meg Whitman. At the very least Mr. Brown tacitly approved this despicable slur and he himself may have used the term at least once on this recording.”

As if on cue, Brown’s campaign Friday released the endorsement from NOW championing Brown’s record on women’s rights. “As Governor, Mayor, and Attorney General, Jerry Brown has promoted and defended women’s rights,” said California NOW President Patty Bellasalma.

“Jerry stands for fairness and equality and never ever backs down. We have every confidence that he will do the same as California’s next governor.”

Democrat Dirtbags play Dirty Politics and commit Fraud.

via Instapundit

Congressman John Adler's campaign and the Camden County Democratic Committee recruited ""NJ Tea Party'' candidate Peter DeStefano to confuse conservative voters and hurt Adler's Republican challenger this fall, Democratic operatives say.

"The goal was to take 5 percent of (Republican Jon) Runyan's vote,'' said a Democrat with direct knowledge of the Adler campaign and CCDC operations.

"Steve Ayscue designed the plan with Geoff Mackler following his lead.''

Ayscue is a high-profile Democratic consultant who runs the CCDC. Mackler is Adler's campaign manager.

Several South Jersey Democratic operatives with direct knowledge of the Adler campaign and CCDC operations spoke to the Courier-Post on condition of anonymity because of what they described as ethical qualms with Adler's campaign.

"From the beginning, orders have flowed from Cherry Hill,'' said one Democratic operative, referring to CCDC headquarters at Garden State Pavilions

The only way democrats think they can win is to cheat.

Constitutional Amendment That Would Give States The Ability to Repeal Congressional Acts ??

2010-10-03T06:47:00.006-04:00

What a GREAT idea!

“It restores a lot of the sovereignty and a lot of the power that the states have lost,” said Marianne Moran, executive director of RepealAmendment.org and *former executive director of Tea Party In Action.
Georgetown Law Professor Randy Barnett initially devised the idea in a 2009 Wall Street Journal opinion piece, which drew the attention of numerous Tea Party activists.

Getting the backing of 34 states, the magic number needed under Article V of the U.S. Constitution to call a constitutional convention, could be an uphill climb, but Moran is undaunted.

Virginia will be the first state to vote on issuing a resolution calling for a constitutional convention to discuss what Moran calls the “Repeal Amendment” when its House of Delegates convenes in January.

“The founding fathers who put together our Constitution … were very, very concerned about the power a large federal government, which … was the driving reason behind the first 10 amendments; a lot of what they feared has come to pass,” Virginia House Speaker Bill Howell told The Daily Caller. “I think it is vitally important that we restore some of that balance, which has been taken away.”

Howell hopes to get bipartisan support for the resolution when he brings it up for a vote next year, and he has been working with state legislators in other states to convince them to back similar resolutions.

The amendment would give the states the power to overturn federal laws even if they have the president’s signature.

“It takes 34 states to petition Congress and call for an Article 5 convention,” Howell said. “I think if Congress saw 30, 32 … states passing resolutions calling for the convention they would act ̶ they’ve done that in the past…They did it with the Seventeenth Amendment and with other efforts.”

Government Motors donating to Democrats with Taxpayer Money

2010-09-23T10:42:00.004-04:00

GM Resumes Political Giving

The Detroit company gave $90,500 to candidates running in the current election cycle, Federal Election Commission records show.

The beneficiaries include Midwestern lawmakers, mostly Democrats, who have traditionally supported the industry's legislative agenda on Capitol Hill, including Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D., Mich.), Sen. Sherrod Brown (D., Ohio) and Rep. John Dingell (D., Mich.).

It isn't unusual for big companies like GM to spend on political campaigns, but complicating GM's situation is that the company is majority-owned by the U.S. government. GM is planning to return to the public stock markets later this year, allowing the U.S. to begin to sell off its roughly 61% stake in the company.

This isn't illegal but it should be. It's an outrage that GM is making political contributions with tax payer money!

WJLA-TV Channel 7 has fired veteran anchorman Doug McKelway for a verbal confrontation this summer with the station's news director that came after McKelway broadcast a sharply worded live report about congressional Democrats and President Obama.
In his piece, McKelway said the sparsely attended event attracted protesters "largely representing far-left environmental groups." He went on to say the protest "may be a risky strategy because the one man who has more campaign contributions from BP than anybody else in history is now sitting in the Oval Office, President Barack Obama, who accepted $77,051 in campaign contributions from BP."

Distancing one's self from the speaker is nothing new for many Democrats, including Edwards, but the number of incumbents and the volume of their criticism of the party House leader is larger than it has been in past election cycles - and the volume of their criticism is louder

Why Are Taxpayers Buying THEIR Lunch?

2010-08-08T11:25:00.007-04:00

When I worked I had to buy my meals, my husband has to buy not only his meals but his coffee too.. so why are we paying for meals, water etc..for elected officials and the people who work for them?
Capitol gluttony

The amount that Congress spends to avoid legislating on empty stomachs is more than enough to make taxpayers sick to theirs.
In just nine months spanning late 2009 and early 2010, the House spent $2.6 million on food and beverages for members and staff, according to the Sunlight Foundation's House Expenditure Reports Database. That figure includes $604,000 just for bottled water, showing that Congress is not just hungry but thirsty, too.
Leading the rush to the taxpayer-funded trough was Democrat Gregorio Sablan, the Northern Mariana Islands' first-ever House delegate, who topped the list of big spenders on food at $23,457. Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., led the catering charges, accounting for $7,536 of the House's $397,000 total tab.
And too often it wasn't merely subsistence grub on the menu. The House Committee on Foreign Affairs spent $35,824 -- all in one shot -- with a company that helps run a gourmet D.C. restaurant for celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck. And confirming that Congress and pork go together, the House spent $10,673 with barbecue restaurants.
It's gluttony, Capitol Hill-style. And it rightly sticks in the craws of taxpayers who pay for their own food and drink.

First Charlie Rangle... now Maxine Waters

Waters' case revolves around allegations that she improperly intervened with federal regulators to help a bank that her husband owned stock in and on whose board he once served

.
And from the LA Times...

Waters came under scrutiny last year after Massachusetts-based OneUnited Bank, one of the nation's largest minority-owned institutions, received $12 million in bailout funds.
The funding came three months after Waters, a senior member of the committee that oversees banking, helped arrange a meeting between officials of the bank, other minority-owned financial institutions and Treasury Department representatives.
Waters' husband, Sidney Williams, had owned stock in the bank and served on its board.

I wonder why Barney Frank was not brought up on ethics charges since he too was involved in the bailout of this bank...

Maxine Waters was also among those members of the Congressional Black Caucus who lied and said that Members of the Tea Party shouted racial slurs at her and other black Caucus members last March
Here is some more background on Congresswoman Waters

via Drudge..
Democrats Keep Door Open to Dangerous Lame Duck Session
Washington, Jul 29 - Republican Study Committee Chairman Tom Price (R-GA) issued the following statement after offering a resolution on the floor of the House of Representatives calling on Congress not to hold a lame duck session after Election Day for the purpose of passing hugely unpopular legislation like a national energy tax, enormous deficit spending bills, and the kickback to Big Labor known as “Card Check.”

“Americans are sick and tired of their elected leaders making backroom deals to ram through unpopular, 2000-page bills that no one has read,” said Chairman Price. “They are sick of out-of-touch politicians, and they are tired of being ignored. A number of Democrats, including members of their leadership, have recently expressed a desire to ignore the public will and use a lame duck session to pass liberal legislation Americans do not want. Today I gave my Democrat colleagues an opportunity to show they are finally ready to listen to the American people.

“Our system of government rests upon the consent of the governed, but it is quite clear that Democrats no longer have Americans’ consent. The public’s trust in this Congress has been repeatedly broken. Voting for a national energy tax and other items on the liberal wish list in a lame duck session would shatter it beyond repair. Republicans are fully prepared to do what is necessary to restore Americans’ trust in their elected representatives. We know it will be a long road, but it is one well worth traveling.”

Note: Instead of taking a clear stand on this issue, House Democrats chose to delay a vote on the Price resolution

“The words ‘Arbeit Macht Frei,’ which translate to 'work will set you free,'” said Rabbi Ari Sunshine. “Those are the words that are written above the entrance to the Auschwitz concentration camp.”
The remarks about Jews, the German writing, this was done by someone who knew German or was copying it from something," said synagogue member Elaine Senter. "I don’t think it was done by kids. It just was too perfect.”

The Faces of the People on JournoList

2010-07-24T13:05:00.004-04:00

The pictures of some of the liberal "journalists" who were members of the left wing conspiracy group JournoList to slant the news in order to get Obama elected are Here the author of the site commented "THIS LATTE PARTY SURE LOOKS EXCLUSIONARY. IT LOOKS NOTHING LIKE AMERICA. IT LOOKS MORE LIKE THE UPPER WEST SIDE OF MANHATTAN"

None of the people on that list should ever again be considered a journalist.

Senator James Webb on Race and Racism in the USA

2010-07-23T16:42:00.009-04:00

In the WSJ Senator Webb writes an outstanding article on America's history on race that the NAACP, and other race baiters, including President Obama are not going to like....
Diversity and the Myth of White Privilege

The old South was a three-tiered society, with blacks and hard-put whites both dominated by white elites who manipulated racial tensions in order to retain power. At the height of slavery, in 1860, less than 5% of whites in the South owned slaves. The eminent black historian John Hope Franklin wrote that "fully three-fourths of the white people in the South had neither slaves nor an immediate economic interest in the maintenance of slavery."
Nondiscrimination laws should be applied equally among all citizens, including those who happen to be white. The need for inclusiveness in our society is undeniable and irreversible, both in our markets and in our communities. Our government should be in the business of enabling opportunity for all, not in picking winners. It can do so by ensuring that artificial distinctions such as race do not determine outcomes.
Memo to my fellow politicians: Drop the Procrustean policies and allow harmony to invade the public mindset. Fairness will happen, and bitterness will fade away.

read it all and pass it on
Of course, this article, if done for political reasons, is not going to excuse Webbs voting record with the people of Virgina... come 2012, we're still planning on sending him home... more at Instapundit

Thousand Protest Obama's Drilling Moratorium

2010-07-21T17:20:00.003-04:00

Don't count on seeing this story from any of the MSM...
Thousands attended a rally in Lafayette Wednesday aimed at convincing the Obama administration to lift the federal offshore drilling moratorium, which officials said could further endanger the state through the loss of tens of thousands of jobs.

The “Rally for Economic Survival” was held at the Cajundome and drew about 11,000 people, some dressed in their oil industry uniforms, others in shirts bearing messages of “Drill Baby Drill” and “No Moratorium.”
“We’re in the middle of a war to defend our way of life,” Jindal said, adding that the state and its people shouldn’t also have to fight the federal government.

Mainstream "Journalists" Conspired to Cover for Obama during Campaign

2010-07-20T11:32:00.007-04:00

Oh Yes, They Did!
Ok, I know that we all KNEW it, but now there is PROOF!

These are some of the guilty involved in the conspiracy to cover up anything negative about candidate Obama and label anyone who questioned his abilities a RACIST

Chris Hayes of the Nation
Richard Kim of the Nation
Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent
Michael Tomasky, of the Guardian
Thomas Schaller, of the Baltimore Sun as well as a political science professor
Jonathan Stein of Mother Jones
Jared Bernstein, who would go on to be Vice President Joe Biden’s top economist!!
Holly Yeager, now of the Columbia Journalism Review
Joe Conason
David Greenberg, and David Roberts of the website Grist.
Todd Gitlin, a professor of journalism at Columbia University
Time, Politico, the Huffington Post, the Baltimore Sun, the Guardian, Salon, the New Republic etc.participated in outpourings of anger over how Obama had been treated in the media, and in some cases plotted to fix the damage.

Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent urged his colleagues to deflect attention from Obama’s relationship with Wright by changing the subject. Pick one of Obama’s conservative critics, Ackerman wrote, “Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares — and call them racists.”
Get the full scoop at the Daily Caller
UPDATE- Lee Bollinger the president of Columbia, wrote in the Wall Street Journal that American journalism is dying and should be bailed out by the government hat tip bigjournalism

Biden Fined $219,000 By Federal Election Commission

2010-07-18T06:37:00.003-04:00

Washington Examiner reports..

The Federal Election Commission has penalized Vice President Joe Biden’s 2008 presidential campaign $219,000 for accepting over-the-limit contributions and a discounted flight on a jet owned by a New York hedge fund. His campaign also was charged with sloppy record-keeping.

Biden’s campaign has indicated it will pay the penalty to the U.S. Treasury to resolve the campaign finance compliance issues, which were revealed in an audit report released Friday by the commission.

I wonder if they will ever get around to investigate Obama's 2008 contributions...

About that Finance Bill that Webb and Warner Helped Pass...

2010-07-17T12:41:00.004-04:00

from HotAir
Expect more fees on more transactions, including paying premium prices for doing business face to face with bank tellers and other employees. Banks will start demanding higher minimum balances and start charging higher fees on accounts that don’t make the cut. Bank of America will lose between $7 and $10 billion just on charges for debit and credit cards alone, money that will get made up by its customers somewhere.

In short, the bill will erode consumer buying power, harm retirement accounts that rely on the performance of financial institutions, and create more unemployment. What exactly did we get in return for all of this? An expansion of the regulatory bureaucracy that spent more time watching porn than protecting consumers the first time around.

Gerry Connelly Caught Plagiarizing!

2010-06-18T08:54:00.005-04:00

This man is so corrupted, he can't even make a campaign video without breaking the law or stretching the rules!
Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-11) busted for plagiarism

More HERE..
“When Gerry Connolly’s staff isn’t spending their time condemning ‘fighting wasteful spending and getting the economy moving ‘as ‘extremist’ views, they are simply making things up to shift attention from Connolly’s radical, big government record, including the failed $800 billion stimulus, the job killing cap and trade bill, and the mismanaged, trillion dollar government health care takeover.
“Connolly bankrupted Fairfax County and now he is rubber stamping the
reckless policies that are bankrupting America.”

If a politician found he had cannibals among his constituents, he would promise them missionaries for dinner.
Yup. Sounds like Gerry.

He is rated a PROGRESSIVE (ie a Obama Liberal)
Too bad this jerk is in office for another 4 years...

Proves to the world he's a moron...

via HOTAIR

CONNOLLY: I’m telling you, they ( Republicans) don’t have an open mind. They have publicly expressed that they do not favor — you know, they’re all for deficit reduction as long as anything having to do with revenue is off the table. Can we get to serious deficit reduction — change that trajectory you talked about — if we eliminate half of the ledger sheet?

BERNANKE: Well, theoretically you could if you cut enough, but it would be very difficult to do that.

CONNOLLY: Is there enough spending to be cut?

BERNANKE: Of course! I mean … [laughs]

CONNOLLY: National defense, homeland security?

BERNANKE: That’s your judgment, that’s the Congress’ judgment. That’s not my judgment.

CONNOLLY: Ah. Um … it must be nice to be an economist.

How Virginia's Congressmen Voted ON GIVING FEDERAL EMPLOYEES A 30 BILLION $$ RAISE

2010-05-29T16:24:00.004-04:00

from Eric Cantors website..

As part of his FY 2011 Budget submission President proposed raising federal civilian pay by 1.4% beginning in January of next year. This will be on top of the 2.0% raise federal civilian employees received this past January, the 3.9% raise they received the previous January, and the 3.5% raise they received the January before that. Freezing federal civilian pay at the current level for one year would save approximately $2 billion next year and $30 billion over ten years.

The Up-Or-Down Vote On This Cut

Each week, the public votes on one of five wasteful spending items, then the House votes on the item chosen by the people. You told Washington where you stood, here is how your Representatives in Washington stood.

Taking some Time Off

Summer is here and unless a Tea Party Rally is organized or needed I'll be taking some time off from blogging and politics. November is coming up and we all need to be refreshed and ready to roll!

Obama's approval numbers keep dropping and he and the socialists in his party have been somewhat neutered from advancing their agenda.

If you live in the 11th congressional district, please don't forget to vote in the Republican Primary on June 8th
I support Keith Fimian and believe he is the best candidate
Pat Herrity is running against Keith
Either of these candidates will be a huge improvement over that corrupt far left liberal Gerry Connolly.

I will be posting sporadically, so feel free to check in.
