Lead by Example: Abolish the Republican House Policy Committee
Leader Boehner often asks us the question: “If we get the majority back, what will we do differently.”
The public is asking us, too.
With the national debt at $13 trillion, everywhere we turn, the public is outraged at the Democrat majority’s obscene spending; and is concerned that the Republican minority has not learned its lesson regarding its past spending practices.
Only deeds, not words, can truly redeem us in Americans’ eyes; however, in the minority we have few opportunities to reduce government spending, due to the Democrat majority.

Legislators’ Alert: Wall Street, Obama & Dems – BFF
Legislators’ Alert: Wall Street, Obama & Dems – BFF
The Wall Street Democrats
We the People Wide Awake
Beset by great challenges, Americans must determine freedom's future. In this crucible of liberty, America's salvation remains her free people" (Congressman McCotter, Wide Awake Pamphlet) Congressman McCotter's Pamphlet is a beacon for conservative values. I recommend it to those who are looking for answers in this difficult time. It reminds us where we come from, but also where our country needs to go. Today, we are acting like scared little children that are afraid of a thunder storm. America is wrapped up in a blanket of socialism and apathy. We are cowering in the corner hoping that our problems will just go away. Obama continues to blindly throw taxpayers money at bridges to no where and studies of the mating patterns of field mice.

How Dems Provide Wall Street Allies With Permanent Bailouts – With Or Without $50B Slush Fund
There are conflicting reports as to whether Washington Democrats will remove a $50 billion bailout slush fund from their Wall Street bailout bill, but it’s a moot point. With or without the fund, Senate Banking Chairman Chris Dodd’s (D-CT) 1,408-page regulatory reform bill would empower the federal government to provide Wall Street with permanent bailouts, courtesy of American taxpayers.
Under the Dodd bill, the nation’s largest financial firms – including Goldman Sachs, President Obama’s top Wall Street ally – would be eligible for special treatment at the highest levels of government, including resolution authorities and resources unavailable to smaller financial firms.

So this is what change looks like...
So this is what change looks like. If he were here, Mr. Speaker, in this time of momentous national distress, I would remind the President of the United States that he is not the leader of a party or an ideology; he is the leader of our country—one founded, not to emulate others, but to inspire the world.
ObamaCare
My husband and I are watching this debate since this healthcare reform has been ongoing. We do agree with some of it, but not giving up our freedom for it. I understand insurance companies should take you even if you have a pre-existing condition, but do not charge us for it. If people do not have health care they should not be fined because what if the person is unemployed and has no means to pay for that fine. I don't know about you, but eventually that will lead the people to jail because they cannot pay for the fine. So, now, this will overcrowd our jails more than they already are. This bill is wrong and should be thrown in the trash. It should be revamped and Americans should be able to submit suggestions.

Congressman Chris Lee Comments on President Obama's State of the Union Address
"I appreciated President Obama coming to the Capitol this evening to address Congress and the American people on the vast number of issues facing our great nation. Unfortunately, one year removed from the President's historic inauguration, we still face an economy in peril, 10 percent unemployment and a skyrocketing national debt. Coupled with the Christmas terror attack and ongoing challenges overseas, this time calls for leadership and bipartisanship to craft meaningful solutions to the issues facing our nation.

Republicans' "Hip Gap"
It permeates the public's consciousness and Big Media obsessively promotes the perception to our detriment. Yet, like a canker on a suitor, polite Republicans won't discuss it. No longer, however, can we pretend the issue doesn't exist. It does and, though painful to admit, we must confront the truth.
Republicans have a "hip gap."
This is not to say Democrats are hip. People who squander their precious breaths of life poring over Das Kapital, practicing rhythmic chanting with Kindergarten lyrics, chaining themselves to national monuments and/or writing memoirs prior to accomplishing anything are utter stiffs. They can only pass themselves off as cool in comparison to...well, us.

TKACIK & McCOTTER: Google in the coal mine
China's cyber-attacks on Google these past several weeks were, sadly, mere replays of state-sponsored Chinese attacks on literally thousands of other American and foreign companies, human rights groups, individuals and, yes, even the U.S. government, including Congress.
