TREASON?

Before starting with today's subject matter, I would like to call your attention to our "title the photo" contest which was announced in the January 28 posting.

TREASON?

Late last week Nancy Pelosi, feeling that a 12 day vacation was more important than protecting our country and its fighting forces, refused to allow a vote on a national security related bill. This bill had just passed in the Senate by a very wide margin.

Some say that her reluctance to hear the bill was probably fueled in part by her allegiance to the trial lawyers. Although I hope not, I expect some will die as a result of her decision. This decision not to vote on the bill brings some questions to mind.

I suppose the first question must be, "ARE WE AT WAR?"
If the answer is "YES," then one of the following questions in this instance is, "DOES CONSCIOUSLY AND PURPOSELY ACTING TO AID OUR ENEMIES" constitute a treasonable act? It would seem that the answer to these two questions is "YES!" Should Nancy Pelosi be so charged?

Now, for a little introspection. The party with the majority in the House enjoys the right of electing the Speaker: the democrats elected Nancy Pelosi to this position. If your vote helped to elect a democrat Congressman who voted for her, are you then to some degree guilty of an activity bordering on treason? Your conscience is yours.

HELP WANTED

It appears that in the last general election there were no Republican candidates in 39 districts scattered across 15 states. These positions offer much more than just good pay. Some of these districts are listed below in State, District and general location sequence. Please help find a Republican candidate in these districts. Even if these districts can reasonably be considered “lost causes,” the effected taxpayers need to have a choice.

California 20 Fresno area – One Found?
California 31 Los Angeles County
California 33 Los Angeles County – One Found?

Georgia 5 Atlanta area

Maryland 5 Calvert, Charles & St. Mary’s Counties – Three Found?
Maryland 7 Baltimore & adjacent Counties – Two Found?

Michigan 13 Wayne County area
Michigan 15 Detroit area

In recent ratings, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste considered 32 of the present officeholders (democrats) to be hostile, 6 unfriendly, and 1 lukewarm to taxpayers. The National Taxpayers Union granted a grade of “F” to 36 of this group while 3 of them rose to a “D”.

WHAT IF?

Surely you believe that the liberal dominated news media is very, very selective in what “news” they will print or report. Have you noticed the absence of reporting about the improved situation in Iraq? There are, of course, other examples but Linden will assume that you can think. WHAT IF, you complained to the lackluster “news” provider and, if satisfaction is not obtained you then call those who advertise in that medium? Your message could be something like: “ I am disappointed that you choose to advertise in or on …. Who will not report…. Perhaps this approach would pay dividends in the form of less biased news coverage.
