Our Apologies...

to the Residents of Burlington and Des Moines County. We had planned a Bill of Rights presentation for Tuesday, February 2 but due to an unexpected issue we had to postpone our presentation. Our efforts to get the word out fell short. We will be scheduling the presentation for May 4th, 2010. Again, we apologize and are looking forward to the May presentation and meeting all who called us in this matter.

The District 2 Officers and Members.

In the news...

 

“A veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to " The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."  That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it."

“It is not necessary to enumerate the many advantages, that arise from this custom of early marriages. They comprehend all the society can receive from this source; from the preservation, and increase of the human race. Every thing useful and beneficial to man, seems to be connected with obedience to the laws of his nature, the inclinations, the duties, and the happiness of individuals, resolve themselves into customs and habits, favourable, in the highest degree, to society. In no case is this more apparent, than in the customs of nations respecting marriage.”

Samuel Williams, The Natural and Civil History of Vermont, 1794  

 

Our Poll Story:

Our ongoing presence in Iraq and Afghanistan has been putting stress on our military and their families but with budget deficits and across the board cuts should we increase benefits to the families of deployed troops? When one joins the military it’s understood that a deployment in support of this country’s operations is a possibility. No one can justify joining the Reserves or Active Duty military and claim that they didn’t know. That’s the purpose of having a military, to be ready at a moments notice. Our poll question to you this week is “Should the spouses of deployed military be eligible for unemployment to care for their children?”  Iowa Democrats Push for Expanded Military Benefits

Planned Parenthood gets $350 million dollars of tax payers’ money to turn an $85 million dollar profit. While Roe v. Wade desperately needs to be overturned at no point and time should the taxpayers money be used in this manner. Debunking Planned Parenthood's financial woes

The American Christian spirit is alive and well with Heartbeat International and their March for Life. They head to Washington D.C. to tell congress about their successes in saving children (without government funding by the way) unlike Planned Parenthood who believes that the people should be paying to dispose of “unwanted” children.

A government that actually is backing off from controlling the people finds that the people are capable of caring for themselves and are able to find the solutions they need. This is a good lesson for Washington D.C. to learn. Chile's Shift To Right Is A Bellwether

Pastor: Iowa censors prayer. With a title like that it has to be bad news. 

Pizza Deliveryman Shot, Killed During Robbery. Our prayers go out to the families on their loss. Maybe if they had been allowed to carry a concealed weapon we wouldn’t be reading about their untimely deaths. The guarentee of the 2nd amendment needs to be enforced for the people’s protection and not relinquished for false ideology.

"Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough? Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.” 1 Corinthians 5:6-8 NLT

Focus defends decision to sponsor CPAC 

Same-sex 'marriage' gains surprising support. It’s a good thing that John McCain didn’t win the presidential election. Cindy (his wife) would have convinced him to support same-sex marriage. She’s done an ad campaign in California in favor of repealing the voters decision against gay marriage.

Obama Condemns Ruling on Corporate Donations. Talk about absolute hypocrisy! This is the same man who gave away trillions of our money to the corporations, banks, insurance companies, and unions who got him into office and now says it’s wrong. He clearly does not understand the difference between right and wrong. What was wrong then is still wrong today.

ATF Stings Put 250M Illegal Cigarettes On Streets. Actually, the states should be policing their own streets and getting these criminals. Only if these illegal activities cross State borders should the Federal gov’t step in and only then to help coordinate efforts between the States. The States are the ones who should be making the decisions.

Are Republicans 'Due'? Just because the Democrats have run the government into the ground these last years doesn’t necessarily mean that the Republicans will walk away with a clean this fall. After the beating they took in the ’06  and ’08 elections people remember what they did to deserve that. And as such they are not ready to so eagerly jump onto the GOP bandwagon.
