Election: Dinner with DeWine
ALL ELECTION VLOGS WILL BE TOP THREAD
***SCROLL FOR NEW POSTS AND UPDATES***
Congresswoman Sue Kelly, Pamela, and Senator Mike DeWine
It's not so much that keeping control of the House and the Senate is critical for Republicans, it is critical to Americans, to lovers of liberty, to fighting the war on the Global Jihad.
That said I am supporting candidates I have had issues with in the past, but next to their democratic opponents are positively golden. I had a dinner this evening with Senator Mike DeWine currently in a dogfight with Democratic, wife beating challenger Sherrod Brown of Avon, (he didn't call him that. I did - check out his divorce papers.)
I admire DeWine's record on a great many critical issues, particularly his unwaivering support of Israel and the war on terror. He has been a Senate leader in the fight against AIDS worldwide and drafted several bills to combat unfair Chinese trade practices.
But I am most moved by his dedication to getting the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act passed. Passage of this legislation lifted the last remaining veils of secrecy on one of the darkest periods in human history. The Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act represented the culmination of work begun in the last Congress to release U.S. Government-held records of Nazi war criminals, the Nazi Holocaust, and the trafficking of Nazi-held assets. That information revealed how much earlier America knew of the German atrocities and the collusion between the American government and ex-Nazis after the war. The CIA and Nazi war criminals.
OTOH, DeWine was a member of the Senate's "Gang of 14" that brokered deasl to approve President Bush's nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court and killed the Republican initiative to strip Democrats of the power to filibuster confirmations. I never liked the Gang of 14 and the power they wielded. They compromised important Republican positions and I asked him about it.....he responds in this VLOG
The Dems are throwing a ton of money in this race and DeWine is in the political fight of his life. And having the opportunity TO sit and listen to this man, it's a damn shame. Here is a thoughtful, deliberate, rational man. Quiet but effective. Steak vs. sizzle.
Brown on the other hand is a far left liberal and has made the fight all about Bush. This race has become a hot point and DeWine is taking enormous heat for Bush's low ratings in that state (did anyone really think the war on Islam was going to be easy?)
Brown echoes the talking point that seemingly has been fed to every other Democratic congressional candidate this fall - that his or her opponent is a "rubber stamp" for President Bush. This simple-minded toting up of roll-call votes is nonsense. You could just as easily - and unfairly - argue that Brown is a rubber stamp for Howard Dean and Nancy Pelosi. More here

Here DeWine speaks of the Saudis and their funding of terror and wahhabism, "they've made a deal with the devil."
If you have a few bucks, send him some money. Soros is throwing his black market money around Ohio - don't let it change the outcome of this critical race.
A delightful surprise was meeting with Congresswoman Sue Kelly19th District New York, what a woman! A warrior in the war on Islamic jihad. She had a commanding lead over her opponent until Soros got involved and started funding her opponent in large amounts. She is in the unfortunate position of living down the road from George Soros (wherever there is good, you'll find that Nazi loving bastard scheming to destroy it.) Unbelievable.
As vice chair of the House Financial Services Committee and head of the Subcommittee on Oversight & Investigations, Congresswoman Sue Kelly has taken a leadership role in U.S. efforts to shut down terrorism funding networks around the world.
The fight against terrorist financing goes hand-in-hand with the War on Terror. Before carrying out attacks, terrorists need funds for housing, recruitment, training, supplies, weapons, and travel. Terrorists transmit these funds across the globe through a wide variety of alternative funding systems that range from charities to commonplace criminal activity such as drug peddling and illegal cigarette sales. ;"We must do everything we possibly can to strip terrorists of their financial resources," Kelly says. While the U.S. and our allies have frozen millions of dollars in terrorist funds since 9/11, much work still lies ahead. Terrorists continue to successfully distribute their blood money, in some cases through accounts in our own financial institutions. Congresswoman Kelly founded the bipartisan Congressional Anti-Terrorist Financing Task Force in 2004 to bring a more centralizing focus on U.S. efforts against terrorist financing. Kelly remains at the forefront of Congressional efforts to eradicate terrorist financing. "We must keep pace with evil terrorist financiers who have cunning and intricate ways to hide their money and transmit their funds to carry out terrorist attacks," Kelly says. "By stopping the flow of terrorist money, we can lessen the threat of terrorism to our communities."
She has spent time in the House of Saud .............. and believes that we must work for reform with King Abdullah. She believes we an work with him. And time is of the essence-, Abdullah is sick and his successors are violent, hardcore. - I have less hope but clearly she iis fighting the great fight. Her priorities are what every member of Congress ought to be.
DeWine speaks to the difference between the Republican and Democrat approaches to fighting the war on Islamic terror. The biggest concern in that room was a nuclear Iran and what could/would be done about it. The upset is the impending nuclear arms race but I say, if our enemies are going to have nukes, then we must give them to our friends.
I believe the Republicans are going to keep the House and the Senate and I've said that all along but it is crucial we get out the vote.
VOTE LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT, BECAUSE IT DOES.
UPDATE: In just the past few weeks ACORN has been accused of turning in fraudulent voter registration cards in Ohio, Missouri, and Pennsylvania. But, this is nothing new. ACORN has been tied to voter fraud in 12 states in the past few years including Virginia, >Texas Michigan, and even in Ohio, Missouri, and Pennsylvania back in 2004 The Employment Policies Institute has written an expose report on ACORN and their history of politicking, hypocrisy, and continual ties to voter fraud. I think you’ll find it interesting. A PDF file is available here.
Voter fraud, the Democrats are counting on it.
UPDATE: Over at Webutante (love that blog name);

Rolling in their Graves
UPDATE:Mike DeWine - Lying here hat tip Tom at Bizzy
















Bless you, Pamela... I have been telling people,
"Vote like your children's lives depend on it-
because, they do."
As Dr. Tom Sowell observed, "The Republicans are a dissapointment, but the Democrats are dangerous."

We should all follow your example. The alternative is unthinkable.
"Soros is throwing his black market money around Ohio - don't let it change the outcome of this critical race."
Soros again!

Pam,
Hope you're checking this thread. You might want to link to some very interesting news from Israel.

It is not surprising that King George (Soros) is giving his dirty money to Democrats. Like many who have vast amounts of money (this isn't a Rich versus Poor thing, believe me!) he is for lack of a better term, a communist. He has made his money with the capitalist system, and he has made enough that he thinks he can buy his way out of the hell he wants for the rest of us. Does that sound familiar at all? A few names to consider: Michael Moore, The Dixie Chicks, other Hollywood miscreants come to mind.

Does anyone know if ACORN receives federal funding and if so, how much ?

Thanks Pamela for doing that dinner (I know you didn't want to). Now the rest of us have no excuse.

When that Nazi War Crimes info comes out, maybe it will have more details on the Bush family's involvement with selling Nazi war bonds and financing the building of concentration camps. The Republicans have a long and honored history of support for Hitler, the Nazis, fascisim in general, and Nazi eugenics policies - Prescott Bush being a particular fan of eugenics.
One might ask how was Wendell Wilkie - a registered Democrat until 1939 - able to secure the Republican nomiantion for president at the Philadelphia convention in 1940?
Simple. He was the only Republican candidate who OPPOSED Hitler. Lindberg was a closet Nazi and Taft a cheerleader for the corporate fascism of the New Germany.
Now that Bush has signed the Bush-McCain Torture Act of 2006 (aka Military Commissions Act) the Bush Administration can continue its campaign to destroy the Constitution of the United States of America, cheered on by a phony-rhymes-with-rich, complete with phony tits and face.
Egad.
Thank God impeachment waits just around the corner.
