“If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.” Sounds like Elizabeth Warren wrote his speech. | Read More »

Frank Pallone is the 22-year progressive Democrat incumbent in NJ6.  He is running against Tea Party candidate Anna Little, and this is the first year that his seat has a chance of being lost.  Last weekend there was a Columbus Day parade in Pallone’s home town (Long Branch NJ).  Pallone had a spot in the parade, and 8-10 people showed up to march with him.  | Read More »

Don’t be fooled, no state is going to turn down federal money.  This is a scam, just the same old socialized health care.  ‘Opt-Out’ only appears ONCE in the text of the legislation. http://democrats.senate.gov/reform/patient-protection-affordable-care-act.pdf opt-out: 1 shall: 3594 subsection: 1644 section: 3055 penalty: 95 criminal: 29 $: 329 prison: 2 fined: 363 rule: 153 tax: 405 impose: 124 enroll: 475 enact: 215 law: 204 restrict: | Read More »

I went to the protest and took photos/video.  After the protest we went to see our congressmen to ask them face-to-face not to support Obamacare.  EVERY ONE hid behind their staffer’s who were saying they were in committee meetings etc.  This video is from one of Allen Boyd’s (D-FL) staffers.  Allen is considered a bluedog.  Watch the arrogance of the staff, acting like it is | Read More »

“the best way to move forward is to include a public option with the opt-out provision for states.” -Harry Reid The opt-out provision…So I guess this means states have a choice to have socialized health care or not.  Does this seem odd to anyone else?  IT ALREADY EXISTS! If a state wants a government health care plan then they do it.  Look at TennCare in | Read More »

Senator Menendez (NJ-D) has a poll on his website about health insurance reform.  Right now the results are 71% of people oppose and 25% support it.  You can submit your results as many times as you like.   I encourage everyone, even if you don’t live in New Jersey to take part in it. Here is a link –> <a href=”http://menendez.senate.gov/issues/polls/poll/?id=87052c92-82f8-45be-9911-a46e9c37ffbd”>http://menendez.senate.gov/issues/polls/poll/?id=87052c92-82f8-45be-9911-a46e9c37ffbd</a>

I read this morning on TheHill.com (link) where Arlen Specter stated that “I think the public option is gaining momentum. … I’m not going to step back a bit.” Now is the time, its do or die.

The revamped GOP.com page is a Joke.  Random faces appear in place of the “O” in the GOP logo, most of which are black people.  Haven’t we learned yet not to pander to one side or the other?  It’s an obvious attempt to pander to minorities.  Everyone with eyes can see right through it.  If you hover your mouse over the “Discuss” tab on the | Read More »

California is slated for $38 billion dollars in budget deficits for the next three years.  The only logical thing to do would be to build a high speed rail.  What sort of crazy upside down land world has this turned into?  People are leaving tax intensive states like CA, NJ, NY in waves so the only logical thing to do is….not reduce taxes to incentivize | Read More »
