Another Successful Year for Representative Farnsworth
= More Pain for Arizonans
Just when Arizonans thought that contract law, legal agreements and the basic Judeo/Christian principles of character and integrity were safely ensconsed in a veto-proof super-majority Republican caucus, the haunting memories of 2007-2008 come crashing back on the political scene. In the old days, Rep. Farnsworth helped demolish the solidarity of the thirty-three member Republican Caucus and ... (more...)

Misplaced finger pointing
"Unintended consequences by one's actions do come home to roost.", states Wes Harris, in a visceral diatribe against Rob Haney. It is unfortunate that Mr. Harris makes accusations against one of our greatest patriots in Maricopa County. It is nearly surreal considering the fact that Mr. Harris has done little more than create disharmony and conflict in his short time in the Party.
Lets see if we can help Mr. Harris. It is the right, no, the DUTY of every conservative Rep... (more...)

Pearce Response
to McComish
On Tuesday, Sen. Elect John McComish made the foolish mistake to complain to The Capitol Times for "unfair" actions by Sen. President Elect Russell Pearce. http://azcapitoltimes.com/news/2010/11/30/mccomish-calls-senate-committee-assignments-%e2%80%98unfair%e2%80%99/For a person with eight years at the Capitol and having served in leadership in the House, this came across as the inappropriate actions of a newcomer to the scene. It was not destined to turn ou... (more...)

TSA Methods Will Kill More Americans on Highway
The recent public ire toward the TSA’s new pat-down and body imaging screening methods is likely to lead to a spike in car-related deaths that will be far larger than any plane-related safety benefits.As the nation readies for one of the busiest traveling holidays, Steven Horwitz, a professor of economics at St. Lawrence University, states that the probable spike in road travel, caused by adverse feelings towards the Transportation Security A...

Obama Speak at Work
"One of the most frustrating aspects of this fight against terrorism is that it has created a whole security apparatus around us that causes a huge inconvenience for ALL of us," -BHOWe have missed the photo ops of the First Family going through the TSA Groping. We do not ever want to see the naked scans of B. Hussein, Michelle or their Progeny. That would probably make us go instantly blind.
This embarrassingly stupid assertion goes along with his call f...

Shellacked at home then Shellacked abroadIt appears that the President has failed in his billion dollar mission to restore his tarnished image. On November 2, the policies of Barack Hussein were repudiated by his foster countrymen with a thorough shellacking at the ballot box. Americans made the right choice in turning out nearly seventy Democrat Congressmen along with the governors of almost all of the midwestern states plus a few more for good measure.
For comfort and... (more...)

Procrastination will only make the problem worse
Arizona is 900 million dollars in the hole and getting deeper. Our General Fund revenues are about a 100 million dollars a month less than our expenditures. That is about 25 million a week. What that means is the legislature needs to come in NOW and reduce the budget by at least 1.5 billion dollars. Every day agencies are spending money we don't have. The longer we wait to do the cuts, the less money there will be to fix the pro... (more...)

Deja Vu
Goddard Spoils Hess Victory
Growing Our Party has just been informed that Tery Goddard has joined Matt Salmon on the Barry Hess Wall of Infamy for preventing Herr Hess being elected as Arizona Governor! Hess is actually gaining ground. His percentage has grown from 1.67% to 2.16% in the last eight years. Check back in 2092 to see if he finally reaches viability.

Straight Talk from Sarah
Today on the Chris Wallace Fox Sunday Show, Governor Palin clearly identified the cabal of liberal politicians and the liberal media in terms we all understand:"These are corrupt Bastards"
Oh that we had a thousand of Sarah Palins with the integrity and strength to tell it like it is! Our Founders had the ability to tell the truth with vigor. If we are to return America to the strength we once enjoyed, we must face our adversaries and our challenges with such c... (more...)

Figures don't Lie - -
But Liars Figure
SURPRISE!! Four days before the General Election, we get a skewed, totally misleading Unemployment Figure from the Obama Administration Department of Labor. Today, they touted a 21,000 reduction in Initial Claims using a Seasonally (Politically?) Adjusted Rate.However, the actual number of Initial Claims, according to the DOL, is actually INCREASED by 11,678. Does it make you or your neighbor that the Obama Administration lowered the number... (more...)

The meeting and socializing
returns November 2
We are ten days out and it is past time to cease the "greet, meet and retreat" groups where we talk about politics. The members of the audience are already involved and know the problems of the system, the good and bad candidates, and how they are going to vote.
Our candidates need boots on the ground and voices on live phone lines to push Republicans to return their early ballots NOW. As of this writing on early Saturday morning, less than one-... (more...)

21 Anyone?
In case you are not aware, Arizona is right now playing 21 and it is no game. The Republican/Pachyderm/Tea Party is on the verge of winning a veto proof 21 seats in the State Senate. This would be an all-time high watermark for the GOP in this state. How do we get to this staggering number? Win at least 4 of the 5 races where we are currently leading or within the margins:LD1 - Steve Pierce (a lock)LD3 - Ron Gould (a lock)LD4 - Scott Bundgaard (a lock)LD5 -... (more...)

Pinch me, I'm Dreaming:
McCain supports GOP/Military
Former Republican presidential contender John McCain on the campaign trail Saturday in San Diego, offering a blistering indictment of Barbara Boxer’s record on military issues; the “most bitterly partisan, most anti-defense senator in the United States Senate today” – an assessment he said he’d made while having “the unpleasant experience of serving with her.”
“When you hear her say that she supports the men and women in t... (more...)

2. David Schweikert is one of the smartest public servants we have ever been blessed to know.
3. David Schweikert believes that public officials work for and are accountable to the citizens he serves.

What's wrong with this?
Everything!
First lady Michelle Obama violated Illinois law -- when she engaged in political discussion at a polling place -- and the White House defended her violation!!
The drama began after Mrs. Obama stopped off at the Martin Luther King Center on the south side of Chicago to cast an early vote. After finishing at the machine, Mrs. NObama let voters including electrician Dennis Campbell, 56, take some photos.
"She was telling me how important it was to vote to keep... (more...)
