Fight Gas and Diesel Tax Hikes

road workersTown Hall meetings on the massive Ball and Byrnes gas and diesel fuel tax hikes, HB 5768 & HB 5769 will be coming to a town near you. It is an effort by big-government pols to gin up support for these huge tax increases. (8 cents per gallon on gas and 12 cents per gallon on diesel.) Democrat Speaker Pro-tem and Transportation Appropriations Chair, Pam Byrnes will be chairing these local town hall meetings.

This is your opportunity to let your voice be heard. These are public meetings. Byrnes and company will undoubtedly attempt to pack the meetings with union bosses and big-government supporters who will express their support. They were not very forthcoming with details to the public about these meetings. In fact, we received this sketchy information just today:
  • Monday, February 22, 10:00 a.m. Kalamazoo Valley Community College, Texas Twp. Campus (map)
  • Monday, March 8, 10:00 a.m. Northwestern Michigan College, Traverse City (map)
  • Monday, March 22, 10:00 a.m. Eagle Crest Conference Center, Ypsilanti (map)
If you are a blogger in one of these communities, please get the word out. You can learn more about these bills here and here.

Group discussion Dear R George,
We are fortunate that more and more candidates are coming forward to support the FairTax.  It takes courage to take a stand on major issues.  In the Ninth Congressional District, we have two candidates for the U.S. Congress that not only support the FairTax, but want to help us inform the public about the FairTax.
 
Please come out to one (Or both!) of these events and listen to FairTax spokespersons and the candidates express their ideas about the FairTax and how it will impact our economy and government at the state and national levels.
 
It is imperative that we become more involved in promoting the FairTax to our elected officials, and supporting those candidates that advocate the FairTax actively in their campaigns.

Medina Absolved-Sarah Palin 9/11 truther controversy explodes, makes hypocrite of Glenn Beck

 

THINK GLENN WILL CORNER SARAH ANY TIME SOON?

Don't hold your breath...

BREAKING: Sarah Palin 9/11 truther controversy makes hypocrite of Glenn Beck

 
Sarah Palin 9/11 truther controversy explodes days after Texas Gubernatorial hopeful Debra Medina outcast as 'pariah candidate' for 9/11 comments

February 17, 2010
Days after Debra Medina's rising bid for Texas Governor was stung by controversy over comments about 9/11 on the Glenn Beck Show, it has emerged that former Vice Presidential candidate and "Tea Party' darling Sarah Palin has done her one better– stating her support for a new 9/11 investigation just before the 2008 election, and going far beyond Medina's mild statement.

Yet, it isn't the audacity to admit there are remaining questions about 9/11 when scientific polls have found that 84% of Americans do not believe the official story and at least six of the 9/11 commissioners think their own report is flawed, or worse. Instead, it is the hypocrisy of Glenn Beck and the media cretins who followed his lead in dismissing and defaming Medina outright for not immediately belittling 9/11 truthers while ignoring similar statements by GOP darling Sarah Palin.

9/11 Qs: MEDINA JOINED BY SARAH PALIN, DEM. GOV. CANDIDATE FAROUK SHAMI
The Statesman reported that Glenn Beck even grilled Medina on whether or not she would 'disavow' any advisers known to hold certain beliefs about 9/11. Medina responded. "I'm certainly not into mind control or thought-policing people."
Furthermore, Medina's GOP challengers– incumbent Rick Perry and Sen. Hutchison blasted her in the media within mere minutes of her 9/11 comments. Surely, they were fearful of Debra Medina's sharp rise in the polls, and seized on the opportunity to harm her politically.
Sitting Governor Perry, who was endorsed by Sarah Palin during a recent stump appearance at the Texas capitol, stated that Medina's comments were an "insult":
"Today's comments were an insult to the thousands of Americans who lost loved ones on Sept. 11 and the military men and women who are overseas protecting our country. President Bush worked tirelessly to protect our nation from additional terrorist attacks and anyone who would suggest Sept. 11 is a
Will Gov. Rick Perry also rebuke Sarah Palin, his top endorsement, for her potentially "insulting" statement? It is doubtful, and until he does, arguably hypocritical.
Further, Medina is not the only gubernatorial candidate to question the events of 9/11. Democrat Farouk Shami went quite a bit further than anything Medina had said when he stated:
"People have talked about it. Professors have written books about it. People overseas talk about it. Whenever I go overseas, people ask me these questions about it. Why are we questioned about it? Do they know something we don't know, the public? But you know, look, we still don't know who killed JFK– whose behind it, let's put it that way. Would we ever find the truth about 9/11? That's a very dangerous subject to get into, you know? So it's hard to make judgement. I'm not saying yes or no. Because I don't know the truth."

 
Yet no fuss is made about these individuals. Debra Medina is attacked, however, because she truly is a threat to the political establishment. Perry, Hutchison, Beck and others pretend to want limited government, pretend to defend the 2nd Amendment and property rights, but really support new taxes, look the other way at corporate looting and otherwise refuse to stand for true Texas sovereignty and the rights of individuals. When Medina proves that she really will change things and challenge undue Federal powers, she is attacked and cast aside as a pariah.
GLENN BECK DICTATES WHAT IS 'TRUTH'
Glenn Beck Dictates what is 'Truth'Glenn Beck, who has stated that he "hates the 9/11 victims' families" for asking questions, who has called 9/11 truthers "dangerous anarchists", who has called Ron Paul and his supporters 'domestic terrorists', has gone out of his way to politically assassinate anyone even loosely affiliated with questioning the official government account of September 11. Now that Beck has underhandedly tried to sabotage Debra Medina, will he also call out fellow FOX News personality Sarah Palin for daring to broach the subject that makes him come unglued?

And, if Debra Medina is guilty of association with 9/11 truth, Sarah Palin is by definition more guilty. She has stated support for an all-out new investigation of 9/11 (the valhalla of the 9/11 truth movement) All the more threatening because Beck and Gov. Perry have already branded themselves with Palin- agast, a truther in disguise?.

After all, Glenn Beck went so far as to say that Medina's comments about 9/11 not only urged him to 'cross her off the list' but constitute to make her a "Flat Earther." Yes, Glenn Beck made an astounding appeal on his Feb. 16th program about the 9/11 truth "takeover" of the Tea Party movement. He referred to Debra Medina as a "flat earther" and implied that she, like once White House Czar Van Jones, is somehow a cryptic-9/11 truther who holds her beliefs in secret while attempting to infiltrate the halls of government.

This, Glenn Beck deduces, in an air reminiscent of McCarthy and HUAC, is why he felt the need to flush out Medina's true attitudes via a surprise question on Sept. 11 orthodoxy. Since when did TV pundits decide what people are allowed to think, anyway? Beck "The Inquisitor" made an example out of Debra Medina and– in true Orwellian fashion– put his boot down firmly, demanding that those 'dangerous truthers' be purged or damned.
 
A real tea party, 9/11 truth.He then lectures on why the NY Times is linking the Tea Party with "violence." Why? Because of 9/11 Truthers who have 'infilitrated' the Tea Party he pretends to speak for.

Despite what Beck has alleged, the 9/11 Truth movement is committed to non-violence. The only danger posed is in the questions it has raised.

Actually, the Tea Parties of the last decade were first those of 9/11 Truth, then Ron Paul, and only after the election of Barack Obama, hijacked by the Republican Party and FOX News as a vehicle for a party resurgence.

By contrast, Glenn Beck gave Sarah Palin a worshipful welcome to the FOX Network only weeks ago, embarrassingly comparing her to George Washington, reading aloud his diary entry anticipating their interview together, putting her on the "most admired list" and otherwise urging her to be a 'reluctant' candidate in 2012. (See below or Jon Stewart's lambast of the awkward interview)

But do not despair. Debra Medina has not lost her potency in the race for Governor. It is precisely because of her unforeseen quickening in the polls that the establishment media and candidates raced to shut down a viable candidate that stood for true issues. Her campaign dies only if you let it. They are afraid of a true Constitutional office holder; don't let attack dogs like Beck practice duplicity– writing off Medina for 9/11 and praising Palin in spite of it. Let Glenn Beck know that the thought police will not tell us what to think or how to vote.
