Perry ad says he stands for 10th Amendment – yet spokesman says it is not in effect today. Which is it?
History has been taken out of context as it relates to the 10th amendment, according to Tina Benkiser who is referencing a paper written by David Barton of wall builders and speaking on behalf of Rick Perry. Tina says Barton’s mission is to educate us on the Constitution! That he is well-respected; That she encourages [...]
Medina vendicated in debate response concerning E-Verify
Remember Debra’s hesitancy to endorse E-Verify as a system that she supports? Once again, Medina has been proven correct. Read the latest NewsMax report on E-Verify. One thing people have come to count on is that Debra does not pull answers out of her hat. This woman knows more about more issues and laws than anyone I have ever seen.
Report: E-Verify Misses Half of Illegal Workers
The system Congress and the Obama administration want employers to use to help curb illegal immigration is failing to catch more than half of the unauthorized workers it checks, a research company has found.
The online tool E-Verify, now used voluntarily by employers, wrongly clears illegal workers about 54 percent of the time, according to Westat, a research company that evaluated the system for the Homeland Security Department. E-Verify missed so many illegal workers mainly because it can’t detect identity fraud, Westat said.
C0-founder of the TXMinutemen, endorses Debra Medina
A letter of recommendation to all of our Texas Patriots and friends.
Debra Medina for Governor of Texas
I am Sandra Beene, co-founder of www.TXMinutemen.com which is a border watch organization. We have had 12 very successful border watches to date, in the area east of El Paso, with not 1 single negative incident with the law, [...]
Perry mimics Medina’s platform – the greatest form of flattery…
or just lying to the people again? All of a sudden Rick Perry is suing the EPA and has a new commercial supporting the 10th Amendment which keeps the federal government from overreaching into state affairs. Of course they are only questioning the economic impact of the latest EPA laws – not the federal government’s right to impose them. Debra Medina has had these two issues as part of her platform since she began this race.
One thing you will never see Perry quote is the following Supreme Court decision. This is a quote from the website citing the Supreme Court ruling:
Scalia warned, “The federal government may neither, issue directives requiring the States to address particular problems, nor command the States’ officers, or those of their political subdivisions, to administer or enforce a federal regulatory program. Such commands are fundamentally incompatible with our constitutional system of dual sovereignty.”
Response to Leo Berman’s attack on Debra Medina
Dear Fellow Texans,
Inexperience and youthful enthusiasm for obeying not only the U.S. Constitution, but also the Texas Constitution, could be really refreshing. More refreshing would be the election of a down home, country girl who would bring some common sense to our state government. One thing is for sure: she is not bought [...]
Re: This Democrat supports Medina ……
……… and will campaign as a Democrat Taxi owner/operator, and alternate energy systems design engineer, all Day for Medina. If I were running for Governor I would have a near identical platform, with ONE very important distinction. I would not outright legalize All drugs. Same with home grown mushrooms, brew, wine and the like. Everything [...]
This is how the aristocracy ensure that they stay in power…
or…It’s My Turn, It’s Your Turn…It’s My Turn.. But this time it could be the voters turn!
Sometimes when you are just looking around on the Internet you can discover some interesting items, like an article titled Hutchison Slices Into Perry’s Donor Base by W. Gardner Selby at the statesman.com. I would like to just lift a [...]
The Volcano the Seismograph Has Not Picked Up Yet!!
When Bill White entered the race for Governor of Texas a couple of weeks ago, the tectonic plates of the political landscape of Texas made a dramatic shift. There could very likely be a violent eruption either in the March Primary or certainly no later than the November General Election. The initial shift was enough to [...]
On Sullivan’s endorsement of Perry
Sleezeballs gravitate toward sleezeballs that’s why.
Ain’t they sweet,
how they love to sleeze and greet,
then they’ll cheat you very confidentially,
while legislators meet.
Ain’t they nice,
they never take your advise
they’ll lie and cheat to get your vote
Do Republicans Want to Loose the Texas Governorship Like They Lost the White House?
The political landscape changed greatly in Texas with the entry of Bill White into the Governor’s race. So much so that one potential candidate Hank Gilbert has decided to run for Agrlcultural Sectetary instead of Governor. Democrats smell blood in the water and see the potential for victory.
Have the Republicans taken notice yet, or do [...]
Dialing For Dollars Rick Perry Style
Wayne Slater posted on his Political Blog for the Dallas MorningNews today, some recent donation figures to the Perry Campaign. They are as follows: “Perry got $50,000 in September from the Texas Realtors political action committee.
He got the following:
$35,000 from the state homebuilders PAC and $25,000 from the politically well-connected Hillco lobby shop, whose big giver is Houston [...]
Consider Poll Numbers Carefully
I think all the poll numbers I have seen where they have Debra in single digits, when they describe the criteria for their poll, it says something like “avowed Republican voters” or “likely GOP voters.” Now RP and KBH may be interested in how the “died in the wool” Republicans will be voting in March, [...]
Here are the numbers and yes – we can win!
I know sometimes, it can get a bit discouraging, when we talk with friends and neighbors and tell them about Debra Medina and what a great governor she will be and we get responses like “You are just wasting your vote,” “Yes, I think she would do a good job, but she doesn’t have enough [...]
Remember the Alamo
Texans are again standing and fighting for the cause of Liberty , but we are sending out a call for reinforcements. Just as Congressman Paul has always been the defender of truth, liberty and our Constitution in the 14th Congressional District, now we have a candidate for Governor of Texas in 2010, who has [...]
Yes – Debra can win! Here’s why.
It was 1977 in Texas and government had been run by one party for 105 years. I think both parties are corrupt by the very nature of their structure anyway, so I’m not just against Democrats. In fact some of those old Democrats look pretty good compared to the current Republicans and Democrats who are [...]
Debra helped advance economic solution
Debra helped me find delegates who would escort me in to the Platform Committee last June at TX GOP State Convention. I had gotten my economic solution adopted at my Precinct and Comal County conventions, but wasn’t a formal delegate to State and couldn’t address the Platform Committee unless accompanied by a delegate.
Some friends from [...]
Donation Page Please!
I hope you get your donations page up and running soon Debra, because being from New York, I run on New York minutes.
Divide and Conquer
Folks are we going to let this continue to happen? All the squabbling back and forth with Democrats pointing fingers at the Republicans and the Republicans blaming the Democrats for all our problems. It makes for good late night comedy, but it sure doesn’t make for good government.
Anyone who considers themselves a Democrat today and [...]
