Republicans Still Haven't Figured It Out!
As the 110th Congress becomes history, Republicans still haven’t figured out that Americans want to take their country back from the career politicians. Thus it is no wonder that Democrats retain control of the new 111th Congress…click the title above to read a letter we sent to the National Republican Congressional Committee in May 2008. We received no reply or even an acknowledgement it was received.

Something of Value
It seems that we are always getting fliers or other advertising telling us of this or that publication which will help us interpret the markets (for $Big Buck$). I feel that these are for the most part worthless. BUT...

This is the worst case of voter registration fraud in our state’s history. It was really outrageous. There is nothing more fundamental to our Democratic Republic and to your right as a citizen of the United States than partcipating in selecting your public officials.

Bait and Switch
Having diagnosed America’s worsening energy situation as a short-term political problem for their party rather than a long-term economic concern impacting the health and security of our nation, Democratic leaders this week are expected to bring forth an energy bill that’s long on political posturing, but short on meaningful solutions.
Blunt Distances Himself from White House
The Number Two Republican in the House made it clear yesterday that he would be more decisive than the White House in threatening a veto of a Continuing Resolution that includes a ban on offshore drilling. In fact, House GOP Whip Roy Blunt (Mo.) went farther, suggesting…
Gang of Gangs
The Republican Gang of Five has morphed into a Gang of eight.
They call themselves the Gang of Sixteen, but it’s only a camouflage, a feint. The Republican Eight are still a Gang of Turncoats. Only the numbers have changed.

Like Nero who Fiddled While Rome Burned
by Rense Johnson, Chairman, Citizens for Term Limits
August 27, 2008
Like Nero who fiddled while Rome burned, our Mindless, Do not Drill Democrat Congress fiddled with the nation’s energy future during its first year and seven months of its majority tenure.
While gasoline prices rose to within 30 cents of doubling, the Do Not Drillers were: (Are you ready for this? We’re not making it up!)
- Congratulating the UC-Santa Barbara Soccer Team
- National Passport Month
- Commending the Houston Dynamo Soccer Team
- National Train Day
- Great Cats and Rare Canids Act
- International Year of Sanitation
- Monkey Safety Act
And although they felt exceedingly proud of this outstanding record, they were fatigued from all their hard work, and decided they needed a rest.
So, Speaker Nancy Pelosi adjourned them for a month’s vacation without even considering the drilling necessary for our energy independence.
The conclusion is inescapable that the Nation and its future would be infinitely better off if every one were defeated in November.
The whole fiasco couldn’t be presented any clearer than the chart above produced by Roy Blunt’s office. It’s time for a fresh Congress!
Gang of Ten . . . er . . .Five
The “Gang of Ten” has attracted much attention and press recently, because it claims go be a “compromise” to allow drilling offshore. The catch is that the “compromise” is still subject to all the bureaucratic regulations presently in place.
An Abundance of Ignorance
...Chairman Rahall ought to know that we already have “use it or lose it.”...
Pelosi Blocks Gas Price Relief
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told CNN that she would block any vote to allow offshore drilling. This remarkable stance comes in the face of the latest poll that says 73 percent of Americans favor offshore drilling, while only 27 percent oppose it.
Environmentalists' Hold on Congress
Let’s face it. The average individual American has little or no clout with Congress and can be safely ignored. But it’s a different story with groups such as Environmental Defense Fund, Sierra Club and The Nature Conservancy.
It's Time For Rage
Americans are worried. Americans are angry. Soaring gas prices are seriously crippling our economy and hitting us where it hurts the most—in our pockets.
We have a right to be angry, but anger is no longer enough.

Virginia's Representative Goode's Concurrent Resolution asking President Bush to enforce immigration laws
110th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. CON. RES. 119
Expressing the sense of the Congress that the President should immediately and unequivocally call for the enforcement of existing immigration laws in order to reduce the threat of a terrorist attack and to reduce the massive influx of illegal aliens into the United States.
A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS — VIRGINIA'S VIRGIL GOODE, JR
Dear Mr. Johnson:
Thank you for your recent communication about the current Senate immigration legislation. Attached is a copy of H.Con.Res. 119, which sets forth what should be the policy of this country on illegal immigration and on amnesty for illegal aliens. I am vigorously opposed to illegal immigration and to amnesty under whatever dressed up name it may be called. Amnesty will encourage the invasion into this country by illegals to continue.
A Green Card in Every Pot
Americans—at least really stupid Americans like George Bush—believe the natural state of the world is to have individual self-determination, human rights, the rule of law and a robust democratic economy. On this view, most of the existing world and almost all of world history is a freakish aberration.

We Need Compassion For Our Border Guards
President George W.
