On top of American Solutions push to Drill Now, Drill Here, Pay Less, I appeared on Fox Business Channel today, pushing a vital piece of that energy puzzle - Oil Shale. You can watch the TV clip below. Please head to American Solutions and sign the petition and let’s push to develop our resources NOW!
The Democrats finally found a government program they don’t like. They are moving to abolish the nation’s first federal school voucher program in Washington, D.C. – despite the fact that than 90% of DC residents express satisfaction with the program. This is just another example of Democrats putting bureaucrats ahead of parents and teachers unions before the education of our children.
Reagan once said that, “I’m convinced that today the majority of Americans want what those first Americans wanted: A better life for themselves and their children; a minimum of government authority.” I think that sentiment is as true today as it was then.
Passengers travelling to the United States from countries whose citizens do not need visas must register online with the US government at least 72 hours before departure, in the latest measure to strengthen American security.
THERE is a certain familiarity to the concomitant series of actions and reactions when disaster strikes in the world. The US stands ready, willing and able to offer assistance. It is often the first country to send in millions of dollars, navy strike groups loaded with food and medical supplies, and transport planes, helicopters and floating hospitals to help those devastated by natural disaster.
Then, just as swift and with equal predictability, those wedded to the Great Satan view of the US begin to carp, drawing on a potent mixture of cynicism and conspiracy theories to criticise the last remaining superpower. When the US keeps doing so much of the heavy lifting to alleviate suffering, you’d figure that the anti-Americans might eventually revise their view of the US. But they never do. And coming under constant attack even when helping others, you’d figure that Americans would eventually draw the curtains on world crises. But they haven’t. At least not yet.
…Indeed, why not break into a standing ovation every now and again? As more US C-130s and helicopters stand waiting on Burma’s doorstep, desperate to help a shattered populace and stymied only by an appalling anti-US regime, this is one of those times.
Mexico’s federal police force — an agency composed heavily of former military officers — has joined the military in a widespread campaign against drug cartels. Millán Gómez is the fourth high-ranking federal police official to be killed this month in a wave of violence that experts here believe is retribution for the ongoing campaign.
This is a greatly underreported story in the immigration debate. It is vital we assist Mexico in this effort. The greater success they enjoy against drug lords, the greater success Mexico experiences economically, the fewer illegals attempt to cross the border.
