What an amazing weekend!Never in my wildest dreams would I believe that McCain would actually
pick Palin!Congratulations Governor
Palin!It does my heart good to hear you
are the VEEP nominee.I don’t know if my
audience remembers, but I spoke in youtube videodated June
27, 2008 requesting that Palin be drafted as our VEEP.I created that youtube because personally, I
think we need to drill for our own oil.BTW, Obama does NOT want us to drill for our own oil.
My hopes started
to dwindle because I kept hearing about Jindal, Pawlenty, Romney, the Huckster
and Cantor.I figured…..well…..maybe
McCain is looking for a male since Obama chose Biden instead of Hillary.What a complete idiot!Obama was stupid not to choose Hillary and
her 18 million votes.What the hell was
he thinking?Perhaps he was too busy
dusting Hillary off of his shoulder and getting a “jab” in every now and then. Don’t get me started on Obama’s thug following
such as Luda who created rap songs referring to Hillary
as a biyatch, and let’s not forget about the Obama supporters who wore “BROS
BEFORE HOS” buttons and t-shirts.
Back to Palin….I
love this woman!She is the epitome of
what the Republican Party needs!She is
tenacious!She is a hunter and life long
NRA member!She is commander in chief to
Alaska with regard to the
National Guard!She has her own son in
the armed forces serving our country!She
is a maverick in her own right who will be supporting another Maverick, John
McCain.She energizes us!She’s refreshing.MORE IMPORTANTLY, SHE IS PRO LIFE!She chose to keep her Down syndrome baby even
though the doctor told her the baby would have the syndrome.She’s compassionate, yet a fighter.She’s against wasteful spending and protested
the “bridge to no where”.She cares and
she fights for what she believes in, and she sets a wonderful example for
women.She is a cross between Princess
Diana, Mother Teresa and Geraldine Ferraro.I was glad to hear that Hillary Clinton sent her congrats to palin
today.
I remember
watching a video of Hillary not too long ago where an Obama male supporter
interrupted Hillary’s speech and told her repeatedly to iron his shirt.Wow.Perhaps the dude’s mommy never showed him how to do that stuff on his
own.He probably has never been married.
I look forward to
watching Sarah Palin and the Joe Biden debates.My gut tells me that she will cause Biden to cringe because Biden is one
of the strongest supporters AGAINST drilling for our own oil in Alaska.Let me repeat this again.Biden is one of the strongest supporters
against drilling for our own oil in ANWR.
Palin has
tirelessly championed for her state to drill for oil and here are only some of the
reasons why from ANWR.org:
1. Only 8% of ANWR Would Be Considered
for Exploration Only the 1.5 million acre or 8% on the northern coast of ANWR is being
considered for development
2. Federal revenues would be enhanced by billions
of dollars from bonus bids, lease rentals, royalties and taxes.
4. The Coastal Plain of ANWR is America's
best possibility for the discovery of another giant "Prudhoe
Bay-sized" oil and gas discovery in North America.
U.S. Department of Interior estimates range from 9 to 16 billion barrels of
recoverable oil.
5. Imported Oil Too Costly
In 2007, the US
imported an average of 60% of its oil and during certain months up to 64%. That
equates to over $330 billion in oil imports. That’s $37.75 million per hour
gone out of our economy! Factor in the cost to defend our imported oil,
and the costs in jobs and industry sent abroad, the total would be nearly a
trillion dollars.
6. No Negative Impact on AnimalsOil
and gas development and wildlife are successfully coexisting in Alaska
's arctic.
7. Alaskans Support this.
More than 75% of Alaskans favor exploration and production in ANWR which
includes the Eskimos.
8.The
Geological Survey and Congressional Research Service say it’s 95% likely that
there are 15.6 billion barrels of oil beneath ANWR. With today’s prices and
technology, 60% of that is recoverable. At $135 a barrel, that represents $1.3
trillion that we would not have to send to Iran,
Russia, Saudi
Arabia and Venezuela.
It means lower prices and reduced risks of oil spills from tankers carrying foreign
crude.
This election
year will be about what we are paying at the gas pump.You know and I know that oil affects
everything.It affects our food prices,
it affects airlines and transportation methods, it affects everything we spend
on.The dominating question Americans
want to know is this:What are we going
to do about reducing gas prices and rising inflation and living costs?!
The Obamanation
minions can talk about Palin’s lack of experience all day long if they, and I
would have to remind them of Obama’s lack of experience, also.Obama did not serve more than 100 weeks as
junior senator before he decided to run for the Presidency. Palin is not running for the Presidential
position.The experienced John McCain
is.By the time McCain fulfills his 8
years, Palin will have had 8 Years of experience underneath her belt IF she
decides to run for the POTUS position.Obama has less than 100 weeks as junior senator before he started
run.
Never
underestimate a woman’s power.A good
woman like Palin is what McCain needs as VEEP.I’m happy that McCain promoted her and let’s not forget that our fellow
black citizens received their right to vote BEFORE a woman was able to.
Long live the
American Revolution.Long live the
Reagan Revolucion. Don’t forget to visit johnmccain.com and become part of the cavalry.Have a good day and take care.
Families Agenda and Hispanic Outreach
5.14.08
This week, House Republican leaders
will brief the Conference on our plan, our solutions and our message. It is the
result of many months of work by
Republicans,including the "Reasons to
Believe" working groups established by
Leader BoehnerChairman McCotter and the House Republican
Policy Committee Conference Vice Chair
Kay Granger's WIN projectour ranking members, our rank-and-file
members and our party's presidential nominee, Senator John McCain.
Rep. Granger’s Families Agenda touches on the
following topics:
SOLUTION #1: Assuring more
time and money for America’s families via gas prices, flex hours, small business.
SOLUTION #2: Assuring health
care and retirement security for America’s families via job security, retirements, nursing
homes, and health care.
SOLUTION #3: Protecting America’s kids via online safety, and child protection.
SOLUTION #4: Assuring
Education Access for America’s families via colleges costs and education.
SOLUTION #5: Supporting America’s military families and keeping our country safe via caring
for vets/military families, national and border security.
Latinos in Arizona who have known McCain for years weren't surprised by
that exchange. When I ask them to explain what draws Latinos to McCain, I hear
the same things: his independence, his convictions, his courage and his
moderate stance on issues. Then, of course, there is his military service and
his heroic suffering as a prisoner of war.
"If you look at Latino families,
we've all got someone who has been in the military," said Ruben Alvarez, a
McCain supporter and principal at the Molera Alvarez Group, a public affairs
firm in Phoenix. "The fact that McCain is so patriotic is a draw for many
Latinos."
Finally,
McCain's 20-plus year record of support of Israel is unmatched among the candidates. He understands
that Israel is a reliable ally in a turbulent part of the world.
Unlike Barack Obama, McCain is not looking to engage in a conversation with the
Holocaust denier Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who brags publicly that he
will destroy Israel. Conversations would give that madman time to gain a
nuclear weapon. As president, McCain would act diligently to oppose Iran's nuclear goals.
McCain is an authentic, independent and courageous leader. There is no better
proof of this than the prized endorsement from independent Sen. Joe Lieberman.
McCain is the right person to serve as our next commander in chief.
