Judicial nominees to the Federal Court gets involved in the “political process”; usually based on the President’s established information of belief as to what the nominee’s “political ideologies” may be considered upon. It is time to require all nominees to present their political fiscal and social issue values, as well as their National Security principles, for all to know what “we, the people” may expect of the Judge’s decisions.

US Senators should confirm Judges who protect fiscal and social values, as well as Constitutional freedoms. The Federalist
Papers confirms that our Republic was founded on Judeo-Christian values http://teachingamericanhistory.org/ratification/timeline-centinel.html. This concept may be mandatory in restoring our nation.

Democrats and Republicans must become more informed regarding all Judicial nominees as presented to the US Senate for their confirmation or rejection. Our Federal Judges and Courts are utmost important to our Constitution. All of us are depending
on our Federal Courts and our Constitution.                                                                                                                              

Many years ago, a friend told a story of growing up so poor, his parents served “shadow ham” on a regular basis. What is “shadow ham”? This is when “cured country ham” was hung up where you could smell it for days or weeks before cooking and
eating it. The aroma is “shadow ham”.

Today, President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats seem to be practicing “shadow jobs”. On a daily basis, President Obama and the Democrat Party have become the Never Under Taxed (NUT) Party, who talk about new and expanded jobs, but do nothing in creating jobs in the private sector.

The “NUT Party” criticizes the “Taxed Enough Already” (TEA) Party in an effort to block ordinary, middle-income working class Americans who believe they are over-taxed. TEA Party supporters are fed up with liberals on Capitol Hill who spend monies without concern to taxpayers’ cost.

The major differences between Democrats and Republicans are that Democrats choose to create jobs on the government payroll. Margaret Thatcher once said, “The problem with socialism is that you eventually, run out of other people’s money.”

Republicans prefer to create an atmosphere for individuals and small businesses that can/will create new jobs in the private sector.

Today, President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats report “created or saved jobs”, but never identify the “saved jobs”. As unemployment rates remain unacceptable, Democrats appear to be reporting “shadow jobs” rather than factual jobs.

American Patriot taxpayers have been held “hostage” by radical, left-wing, big-spending, wasteful Democrats for many years.

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats say that Republicans want to reduce Medicare when in fact; Capitol Hill Democrats did remove $500 billion from Medicare. President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats are deceitful scoundrels  http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/dec/04/democrats-win-cuts-of-400-billion-to-medicare/?feat=home_headlines.

“Taxed Enough Already” (TEA) Party members and supporters are appreciative to President Obama and the Democrat Party, hereinafter referred to as the “Never Under Taxed” (NUT) Party for their continuation to inform Americans as to why more and more Americans could and should support the “Taxed Enough Already” (TEA) Party. President Obama and Capitol Hill NUT Party members express how shallow they support Constitutional freedoms and Judeo-Christian values.

Upper income taxpayers are overburdened and swindled while President Obama and Capitol Hill NUT Party members wastefully spend (y)our taxpayers’ money. While some 50% of all Americans pay no taxes, some 5% of upper income taxpayers pay some 59% of all taxes. Upper income entrepreneurs work harder, longer hours, and smarter to earn more than most other workers.  When will President Obama and Capitol Hill NUT Party members stop the big-spending, wasteful spending? Our US government should not and cannot provide all wishes, to all people, all the time. When will President Obama and Capitol Hill NUT Party members agree that enough taxation is enough, or will they ever?  President Obama and Capitol Hill NUT Party members continue to support Labor Unions whose demands destroy American jobs.

New jobs are becoming rare, while manufacturing jobs are disappearing as many jobs have been abolished by Labor Union demands for higher wages and even more expanded benefits.

American taxpayers are overburdened and our US Treasury is financially broke. NUT Party legislators continues to disburse more tax revenues “for government jobs” while denying entrepreneurs any efforts to “create and expand jobs in a free and open Constitutional economy”.

Americans are awakening to appreciate that TEA Party supporters are offering American taxpayers’ relief and other common-sense solutions to “stop-the-spending” by President Obama and Capitol Hill NUT Party members.

TEA Party supporters are normal hard-working American Patriots combating wasteful spending in support of tax reform allowing “job creators” in an effort to generate new jobs and expand existing jobs.

What President Obama and Capitol Hill NUT Party members fail to understand is that if they would reduce taxes, lessen government interference, and get out of the way, our economy would come back strong.

Do not expect most biased “main-stream” Medias to share these views to a majority of America.

One of the more threatened threats to our US Constitution is Amendment I: Congress shall make no law….. abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press… “Freedom of Speech” in the biased “main-stream” Medias are disingenuous when they practice as if they possessed all of the views to be allowed and/or presented to the American electorate.

During the election season of year 2008, study results prove that most members of the biased “main-stream” Medias were
totally aware of Barack Obama’s historical support of out-of-control spending and his “radical” study and association with many Socialists and Communists. These biased Medias elected to ignore these facts and decided not to report or even inform the American electorate.

These same biased left-wing Medias were so deeply in support of Barack Obama and his supporting Democrats, while attacking John McCain and Republican Party candidates, they went so far as to damage confidence in Americans’ “Freedom of Speech” principles.

Americans have learned that many biased left-wing Medias; ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, and many other Medias are not worthy of trust. Americans are becoming aware that somewhat upstart Fox News Channel is more “Fair and Balanced” in the news.  TV viewing “Polls” support these truths.  Fox News Channel is growing so rapidly at the times while some of these other biased TV News channels rating are declining, you
could see more people in a football stadium than watching some of these TV News stations.

Today, many of these biased left-wing Medias are “carrying the water” for the Democrat Party by echoing the radical left-wing political agendas. Quite often, Democrats may make erroneous statements and these left-wing Medias report these statements as factual. At the same time, these left-wing Medias echo Democrat attacks on Taxed Enough Already (TEA) Party, when in fact, the left-wing Democrat Party is becoming known as the Never Under Taxed (NUT) Party.

Taxed Enough Already (TEA) Party supporters are made up of average, middle income, working Americans who seek less government controls, more Constitutional freedoms, and believe taxpayers are Taxed Enough Already. Most of these associated with the TEA Party associate themselves to the Republican Party as most members of the GOP support less government controls, more Constitutional freedoms, and lower taxes for all accommodating more private investments for new jobs and expanded jobs.

Many biased left-wing Medias assert that they practice and support “Freedom of Speech”.  Not true! A large majority of Publishers and Editors deny “equal” opposing views of Conservative views. In doing so, these biased Medias are disallowing
Americans the same “Freedom of Speech” values that they, themselves, otherwise pledge to follow.

Unjust uses of “Freedom of Speech” allows biased left-wing Medias and others to say and publish the foolish erroneous accounts while denying others to teach the “wisest” teachings.

Free and open elections are one of the most precious freedoms under our US Constitution. “Voter fraud is a Constitutional violation of our freedoms”; all elections by “qualified voters” to have their votes wholly counted. “Voter fraud diminishes every lawful voter’s rights”.

Each “legal voter” has “the right” to cast their “lawful votes” and be assured their vote is “accurately tallied”.

As  others have said, we show photo ID to drive a car, fly on a plane, cash a check, open a bank account, visit the Governor's
office, collect social security benefits, receive food stamps, collect welfare, rent a car, check into a hotel room, pickup tickets at will call...the list goes on & on. An ID would be provided at no cost to those who don't have an ID & cannot afford to purchase one.

NC Legislators who vote “NO” on Voter ID are more interested in fraudulent votes than on maintaining the integrity of elections.

It is essential for NC voters to remember and target each legislator’s vote in November 2012 on “HB 351. http://www.ncga.state.nc.us/gascripts/voteHistory/RollCallVoteTranscriptP.pl?sSession=2011&sChamber=H&RCS=1278

America is in trouble. For years, Capitol Hill legislators practiced policies of spending more than our government’s income. In the previous less than three years, President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats have spent some $4 trillion in deficient
spending.

In November 2010, a majority of America’s voters made an effort to stop this excessive “out-of-control” spending. During the years 2011 and 2012, the Taxed Enough Already (TEA) Party was reborn. Many Americans have now decided that the Democrat Party continues to govern as the Never Under Taxed (NUT) Party.

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats are floating out a plan for saving America that is a continuation of “no real savings”; merely, as usual, a “falsified rambling statement” of promise. It is somewhat like former Speaker Pelosi once said, "But we have to pass the [health care] bill so that you can find out what is in it" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoE1R-xH5To.

Republicans offer “real savings” while stabilizing Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. By “66% - For” to “17% - Against”, Americans support HR 2560 “Cut, Cap, and Balance” with a Balanced-Budget Constitutional Amendment.

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats must get beyond their “falsified rambling statements” and select the GOP’s legislation to save America’s financial responsibility?

Could it be President Obama’s strategy to demand more wasteful, out-of-control spending or force a US Government “shutdown” which may result to “rioting in the streets”? With that, Obama may then order “Marshall Law” to suspend our Constitutional government.

Based on a CNN political poll http://www.mrc.org/biasalert/2011/20110722052837.aspx, 66% of Americans support HR 2560, “Cut, Cap, and Balance”, deficit reduction legislation, and a Budget-Cutting Constitutional Amendment as supported by Republicans and ratified in the US House on July 19, 2011 http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2011/roll606.xml.

66% of Democrats and 65% of independents said they would approve of such a plan that caps spending at 19.9% of GDP (not at 18%, as some, including numerous senators, have claimed), cuts $111 billion out of the fiscal 2012 budget, and requires a “balanced budget amendment” before Congress can raise the debt ceiling http://blog.heritage.org/2011/07/21/cnn-poll-two-thirds-of-americans-support-cut-cap-and-balance-plan/.

During a short 2.5 years, President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats have increased our National Debt by nearly $4 trillion. In November 2010, Americans responded by rejecting the Democrats’ radical, ObamaCare and other wasteful, out-of-control spending; electing a 63 new added GOP majority in the US House, 6 new additional seats in the US Senate, and 680 additional seats in state legislatures granting the Republican Party as a majority party in 25 of the 50 state legislatures compared to
Democrats in control of 15 state legislatures, with 10 states’ senate/house legislatures split.

On Vote Number 116  on July 22, 2011, a US Senate Democrat Party majority chose YEAs en route to “Table and/or Kill” legislation “Cut, Cap, and Balance” with the Balanced-Budget Constitutiona Amendment  http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=112&session=1&vote=00116 on a vote with 51 YEAs to 46 NAYs and with 3 Senators Not Voting. All 49 Democrats and 2 Independents chose to confirm YEAs en route to “Table and/or Kill” the legislation. 2 Democrats did not vote.

Of the 49 Democrats, or their Senate seats up for re-election in 2012, and who chose to confirm YEAs en route for “Table and/or Kill” “Cut, Cap, and Balance” with the Balanced-Budget Constitutional Amendment are: Akaka (D-HI), Bingaman (D-NM), Brown (D-OH), Cantwell D-WA, Cardin (D-MD), Carper (D-DE), Casey (D-PA), Conrad (D-ND), Feinstein (D-CA), Klobuchar (D-MN), Kohl (D-WI), Manchin (D-WV), McCaskill (D-MO), Menendez (D-NJ), Nelson (D-FL), Nelson (D-NE), Stabenow (D-MI), Tester (D-MT), Webb (D-VA), Whitehouse (D-RI) http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?Class=1. 

2 Independents, or their Senate seats up for re-election in 2012, and who chose to confirm YEAs en route for “Table and/or Kill” “Cut, Cap, and Balance” with the Balanced-Budget Constitutional Amendment are: Lieberman (ID-CT) and Sanders
(I-VT).

House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said that the “Balanced-Budget Constitutional Amendment”, if ratified, would make it “virtually impossible” to raise taxes.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) on Thursday called it “some of the worst legislation in the history of this country.”

Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) aptly summed up the left’s characterizations of the legislation, calling it “cruel, dangerous, and
stupid.” http://blog.heritage.org/2011/07/21/cnn-poll-two-thirds-of-americans-support-cut-cap-and-balance-plan/ 

Everyone should “know” that anytime Sen. Dick Durbin (D-MI) likes any tax plan, it is “not good” for the American working taxpayers, but the plan must be good for the “job-killing Labor Unions”.

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats continue to practice “Never Under Taxed” (NUT) Party policies of the “excessive wasteful out-of-control spending”. Democrats support “Labor Unions that destroy jobs” in a free and open economy, rather than supporting “businesses that create new jobs and expand existing jobs” in an open and free economy. “Labor Union demands” have all but destroyed our entire manufacturing base and continue to demand higher salaries, wages, and benefits for service Labor Unions.

NUT Party members and their associates support a current “failing” Social Security program, a deteriorating Medicare and Medicaid system.  NUT Party members and their associates support a “cram down (y)our throats” “Socialistic” ObamaCare.

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats continue to, in another extreme “Socialistic” effort, “force” the “Never Under Taxed” (NUT) Party members and supporters to spend more “excessive wasteful out-of-control” of (y)our taxpayers’ money. Moreover, these NUT legislators’ mission is to condemn and smear the Taxed Enough Already (TEA) Party without any “common-sense principles”.

“Taxed Enough Already” (TEA) Party members and supporters, usually “Republicans and Independents”, are ordinary middle working class Americans who want new jobs and expanded jobs, and a “stop of excessive wasteful out-of-control spending”. “Taxed Enough Already” Party members and supporters understand that businesses create new jobs and expand
existing jobs. “Taxed Enough Already” Party members and supporters understand that demanding higher salaries, wages, and more benefits by Labor Unions are “job-killers”, as their demands make the businesses less competitive in a free and open market.

TEA Party members and supporters seek to make corrective actions to “preserve” (y)our Social Security program, and our Medicare and Medicaid system.   TEA Party members and supporters seek to “maintain the current very best Healthcare system in the entire world”.

TEA Party members and supporters have a strong desire to work hard and work smart in an “effort to exceed in life” while on their job(s) in providing their family’s necessities of shelter, food, other needs, and additional comforts in life. In their progression of life, each understands the “importance to pay reasonable and sensible taxes” rather than excessive and/or disproportionate taxes for “unwanted and unneeded government benefits and services”.

TEA Party members and supporters favor a Balanced-Budget Constitutional Amendment to “stop the excessive wasteful out-of-control spending”. NUT Party members and supporters are opposed.

Excessive spending on Capitol Hill did not start yesterday!” In the fall of 1978, the now late Rep. W.G. “Bill” Hefner (D-NC-8) was holding an open “Town Hall” forum in the Monroe, NC City Council Chambers and much of  local citizens’ concern focused on Capitol Hill’s excessive government spending. The now late Hazel Giles of Monroe, NC stood up and asked Rep. Hefner to start a Constitutional Amendment for a “Balanced Budget”. Rep. Hefner’s response was that a Constitutional
Amendment would take too long.  Mr. Hazel Giles replied that if he, Rep. Hefner, would start a Constitutional Amendment right
now, the excessive government spending would be solved in a few years.

In earlier years, state, county, and municipal governments maintained insurance to protect their respective locales. Additionally,
these same governments held an adequate sum in reserves to cover unexpected emergencies. Projects, otherwise, had to wait as determined by necessities.  Times have changed as members in the US Senate and Congress have practiced “on call” upon any wish for a telephone call from local leaders for many various “grants on request”.  As re-elections arrived, these same Capitol Hill legislators who wrote, presented, advanced, and voted on all to spend (y)our taxpayers’ money returned to these same communities “boastful” how they sent federal monies to these communities.  It was presented as if the “Grants” came from all others; not you and me. These legislators were seeking political funds for their re-election.  These same Capitol Hill legislators never mentioned that other Capitol Hill legislators were doing likewise, running up the National debt, at “(y)our expense”.

For the USA to remain solvent, the time for a Constitutional Amendment has arrived as an absolute essential. Over the last many
years, members of the US Senate and US Congress on Capitol Hill have tried to provide “all the money” to become “all the solutions” for “all the people” “all the time”; without any regard of cost at taxpayers’ expense.  Now, the “mounting debt”, at taxpayers’ expense, is due. President Obama and most Capitol Hill Democrats still demand more out-of-control spending. When will it end?

Our USA “financial crisis” has arrived. Americans are aware, are awakening, and now understand the economic uncertainties. America is desperate for a “Balanced Budget” Constitutional Amendment. The GOP in the US House is now on the “right”
quest to stop the out-of-control spending for restoring America’s fiscal responsibility.

The National Debt stood at $10.626 trillion the day Mr. Obama was inaugurated http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20019931-503544.html.

There are some 192 countries around the world. The USA sends foreign aid to 150 0f these nations. The top 10 countries the USA sends to include: Colombia $461.2 million, Mexico $316.7 million, Egypt $255.7 million, Philippines 128.2 million, India
$126.6 million, Russia $71.5 million, China $27.2 million, Brazil $25 million, Thailand $16.75 million, and Turkey $8.2 million.

The purpose of this criminal trial was to provide “Justice for Caylee”. Under our Constitution and General Statutes, it is important for all to understand that all “accused of crime” are innocent until proven guilty. All trial witnesses and evidence must be open and honest.  Our Judiciary should not allow, under oath, the lying by individuals, misrepresentations, and/or any other falsified items, products, etc.

As I viewed Casey Anthony’s “entire trial” on the Internet, the Defense team with some six or more lawyers, at taxpayers’ expense, presented their own “expert witnesses” who ended up admitting the FBI experts were right and/or these same Defense Team “expert witnesses” contradicted their own earlier testimony. It appeared most Defense Team “expert witnesses” were there for money and fame; not justice.

This defense team was successful for themselves and their defendant, Casey Anthony. This trial was a “rerun show” of the O.J.
Simpson trial. This trial included an effort to damage and/or destroy all the FBI specialists, other professional specialists, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, Roy Kronk who found Caylee Anthony’s remains, and even other members of the Anthony family; all while attempting to protect the most compulsive liar I have ever seen in a courtroom. At the same time, it appeared Casey Anthony was pleased with the entire destruction.

This defense team was successful for themselves and their defendant, Casey Anthony, using “junk science” as has, allegedly been seen and used with former NC Senator John Edwards (D-NC),  in collecting some hundreds of millions of dollars in Health Care lawsuits.

In the end, it was stunning in listening to the court verdict as reported from the Pinnellas County, Florida Jury. My question is how can anyone with an open mind and any common-sense, accept as factual, the Defense Team’s own “expert witnesses”? How and why did this Court and “this jury” allow the Defense Team to falsify and/or improperly repudiate the professional evidence as presented by the entire Federal Bureau of Investigation, other professional specialists, Orange County Sheriff’s Department, and even Roy Kronk? 

In summary, does this criminal trial represent the failures of our Judiciary in Florida or anywhere else? Does this criminal trial represent what the American Bar Association (ABA) has done with legislation to our General Statutes? Does this criminal trial represent what the American Bar Association (ABA) has done to our culture? If so, this is an expanding problem in an, otherwise, honorable and free society. Now is the time for reviewing our Constitution as foreseen and proposed for by our Founding Fathers and retooling our “Old English Law” common-sense General Statues.

Prosecuting crime has become an examination in science.  Today, General Statues are allowing/requiring more defense lawyers to represent and/or misrepresent the accused offender while allowing this required science to be shredded for criminal reasons.

How saddening for NC NAACP President Rev. William Barber II and his NAACP attorney Irving Joyner to criticize the newly proposed North Carolina legislative and congressional maps!

For the 2010 US Census record: http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/37000.html

USA: White – 72.4%;  Black – 12.6%

North Carolina - White 68.5%;  Black – 21.5%

In the USA, and by the 2010 official population numbers, whites represent 5.75 to 1.0 over blacks. By the numbers in NC, whites represent 3.19 to 1.0 over blacks. In my own residency of Union County, NC, whites represent 6.75 to 1.0 over blacks.

With these facts, you would think that NAACP President Rev. William Barber II and NAACP attorney Irving Joyner would be praising the GOP for assuring that the black minority community would have an additional likelihood of reasonable representation in the NC General Assembly and US Congress.

All should be delighted as the GOP majority NC Legislature rejected a plan strictly based on US Census representation at more than 3 whites to 1 for blacks. The Democrat Party represents “bigger tax – bigger government – less freedoms”.  NC voters are turning away from the “bigger tax – bigger government – less freedoms” and moving forward on an approach of “less taxes – less government – more freedoms” form of government more closely represented by the Republican Party. Condensing minority voters in districts will provide a reasonable representation in the NC General Assembly and US Congress.

After a majority Democrat Party representation in the NC Legislature for 140 years, when did any NAACP President “ever” complain about any Democrat Party’s redistricting plans? When did the majority Democrat Party’s Legislature ever entertain any “bi-partisan redistricting” plan as this 2011 GOP Legislature did? Did NAACP President William Barber find all of 140 year redistricting plans under the Democrat Party Legislature impartial? Perhaps, his criticism today is likely because of his and the NAACP’s continuous support of the more liberal Democrat Party.

As for my observation, Rev. William Barber II and NAACP attorney Irving Joyner continues to mislead the minority community in their support of the Democrat Party to provide all services, to all people, all the time; and all at taxpayers’ expense. The NAACP should operate and practice politically responsible, as a non-partisanIRS Section 501c(3) organization.

America is financially broke. To save our nation, it is imperative for all to take more responsibility in our needs and other aspirations, rather than depending on bigger government and our over-burdened taxpayers.

Americans’ debt has now reached more than $14 trillion and is reaching the maximum  that by law must stop all of over-budgeting revenues or raise (y)our debt even higher.  Our National debt for “each taxpayer” now exceeds $129,000 and President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats continue their demands to spend even more of (y)our taxpayers’ money.

Unemployment still remains around 9% with inflation escalating while reaching an intensified dangerous level. It appears President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats only offer to an economic recovery is to spend even more whereas placing our financial system into serious default.

‘Big Oil” continues to be denied to drill for new oil and gas by President Obama, his EPA, and Capitol Hill Democrats. President Obama and his EPA issued its “first permit” to American companies in deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico in this May. Obama denies for more oil drilling in ANWR?  Obama denies for more oil drilling in the Bakken foundation in N. Dakota and Montana? America now has more known oil reserves than the entire Middle East; however, President Obama, his EPA, and Capitol Hill Democrats deny American companies from retracting the oil. More lower oil and gasoline prices for consumers could greatly improve our economy.

In March of this year, Obama and his administration loaned Brazil $2 billion http://www.nola.com/politics/index.ssf/2011/03/sen_david_vitters_challenges_l.html for drilling in the same American requested deep waters.

In April, 2011, President Obama’s Federal US Export-Import Bank approved loaning $2.84 billion to Columbia  http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/feds-plan-284-billion-loan-oil-refinery for upgrading their oil refinery.

Increasing our National debt even further than our current levels, without  “massive expenditure reductions”, may certainly
place our fiscal responsibility into a questionable financial quandary.  Will President Obama, his EPA, and Capitol Hill Democrats force America into bankruptcy?

For the third time, President Obama submitted John J. McConnell, Jr. to be United States District Judge for the District of Rhode Island. Twice before, the US Senate has rejected this nominee on “Closure”. 

From 1991 until present, he has been a partner and director of the Environmental practice group at Motley Rice LLC, working with state and local governments, groups, and individuals in cases of personal injury, property damage and economic loss as a result of negligent environmental practices.

For the first “ever” in its 100-year history, the US Chamber of Commerce opposed John J. McConnell, Jr., to be United States District Judge.

Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) said that there are also serious ethical issues with Mr. McConnell’s nomination. “He has given
statements to the Judiciary Committee that are misleading at best, and untrue at worse, about his familiarity with a case involving stolen litigation documents.” 

Many members of the radical left-wing environment radicals are attacking our economy by demanding less oil and gasoline drilling, more requirements on industry making businesses less-competitive in the marketplace, and more government bureaucracy. (Y)our GOP Platform supports common-sense protection of our environment as defined in “Addressing Climate
Change Responsibly” http://www.gop.com/2008Platform/Environment.htm.

The Washington Examiner wrote an editorial critical of McConnell for making almost $700,000 in campaign contributions to Democrats by him and his wife since 1993.  The editorial in the Washington Examiner claimed he is trying to buy a federal
judgeship through targeted contributions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_J._McConnell,_Jr. 

With this evidence, it appears that McConnell will be a Federal Judge who creates the law, rather than rule on the laws as written.  McConnell is quoted as saying,  `There are wrongs that need to be righted, and that’s how I see the law.” In Mr. McConnell’s eyes, the wrongdoers in America are invariably its job creators http://www.patriotactionnetwork.com/forum/topics/dist-judge-nomination-cloture?commentId=2600775%3AComment%3A3773077&xg_source=activity.

With this pro-abortionist evidence and other radical left-wing history, why could or would Scott Brown (MA), Susan Collins (ME), Lindsey Graham (SC), Johnny Isakson (GA), Mark Kirk (IL), John McCain AZ), Lisa Murkowski (AK) Olympia Snowe (ME), and John Thune (SD) of South Dakota elect “YES” on a Closure Vote http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=112&session=1&vote=00065?  In the Senate, 60 “YES” votes are required to move forward on an issue. Why did these same GOP Senators turn around on the next Roll Call Vote only to vote “NO” on Confirmation http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=112&session=1&vote=00066 of this same Obama lifetime Federal Judgeship nominee? “All Democrats” who cast their votes chose “YES” on both “Closure” and “Confirmation”.

Do these 11 GOP Senators believe they may be able to “fool” and/or convince their constituents that they support “pro-life”?  How can these 11 Republican Senators say they support a free and open economy after supporting “Closure” on John J.
McConnell, Jr., to be United States District Judge? What did these 11 GOP Senators get in return for their vote, or is this their true political belief and practice?  President Obama’s approved US District Judge John J. McConnell, Jr. is a way-out radical left-winger. Again, “all Democrats” who cast their votes chose “YES” on both “Closure” and “Confirmation”.  How corrupt are the 11 Republicans and almost all Democrats in the US Senate?

By Oscar Y. Harward

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats are at it again; attempting to raise taxes, even if it may be necessary to distort the “true facts” that will lead to even higher prices to consumers of gasoline at the pumps.  If these tax increases pass, Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats may believe they can obtain more tax spending ability and at the same time, blame the Republicans
for even higher, and worsening gasoline price increases.

The “Markey Amendment” H.AMDT.119 to H.R.1 was based on the fact that Capitol Hill Democrats were continuing to add additional taxes as “Royalty taxes” for the oil companies drilling for more oil and gasoline http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:hz119. The House majority Republicans rejected the  “Markey Amendment” http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2011/roll109.xml with a final vote of 174-Yes; 251-NO;  with 8-Not Voting.

In essence, the House majority Republicans have rejected “Royalty tax” and all other taxes that would have added gasoline cost; then the added cost passed on to American consumers. In fact, the GOP is in support of more drilling for gasoline and oil to lower gasoline cost at the pumps for American consumers.

Democrat House Committee Ranking Member Edward J. Markey (D-MA-7) issued a News Release “Republicans Side with Big Oil, Reject $53 Billion in Taxpayer Savings”. To Markey andother Liberal Democrats, additional gasoline taxes to consumers are taxpayers’ savings. Evaluate that one!

Capitol Hill Democrats have been playing Markey’s defeated Amendment as the GOP in support of big oil.  Rep. Edward Markey’s (D-MA-7) record may confirm that Rep. Markey is a big-tax, big-deficient-spending Democrat member of Congress.

How much longer will President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats continue to raise taxes? How much longer will President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats continue to distort the “true facts” on gasoline costs? When will President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats allow additional “known quantity” drilling for oil and gasoline? When will President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats focus on lower taxes and jobs, jobs, and more jobs?
