John F. Kennedy _________________________________ Mass Primary I confess. I’ve been toying with the idea to vote in the primary. It’s been a long time since I felt secure enough to think I knew enough about the candidates. Based on my limited knowledge, Gov Perry is a better choice than Kay Bailey Hutchison. Both are conservative. They were both up to their hips in the NAFTA (TTC – Texas Trans Corridor) but he’s got the executive experience she does not. Perry has supported Tea Parties (spoke to them way back on April 15) and has been among the first govs to talk about X Amendment. That’s it. That’s all I knew and I shared it with you the reader. To my great surprise, one reader took great exception. I hadn’t even heard of the candidate he was promoting, which proves how wise I’ve been all these years not voting in the primaries. 7 PM tonight (Thurs), the GOP candidates will debate on TV, Gov Rick Perry, Sen Kay Bailey Hutchison and Debra Medina. Google her. I don’t know anything else about Medina except what I googled. Obviously she’s a serious person not to be ignored. Appears to be conservative. I’ll be looking for “common sense” which is in short supply in politics lately. I have already explained my concern with Perry and Hutchison, but as each day passes, I recall some other related things. Rick Perry condoned the raid on the FLDS bigamist community in San Angelo , TX . It is a knee jerk reaction to condemn families with multiple wives, but I have a hard time trying to distinguish the difference between them and other communities where some men impregnate many women without benefit of a marriage license and do not care for the offspring that result. Why round up hundreds of children who are being taken care of by loving parents and ignore the thousands of kids born daily to unwed mothers in county hospitals all over the nation sired by men who have no interest in supporting them financially or emotionally---ever? By my count less than 1% of the people the State of Texas placed in custody were ever criminally charged. Seems to me a man who has abandoned the mothers and their children carrying his DNA with no intention, or even awareness, of his responsibilities is much worse than the bigamist who loves, cares and supports his children and their mothers. Don’t you wonder how many of the 6 or 700 people lives they disrupted are better/worse off? What are the consequences of the govt intrusion? Were our tax dollars spent wasted and counter-productive? Did they ever find whose hair they found on the church bed where marriages were supposedly consumated? If positive, I say, let’s start raiding maternity wards coast-to-coast saving bastards and sending the guilty to prison. The logic of ignoring immorally deprived studs while persecuting and prosecuting fathers supporting the women they have children with is a no brainer. And just to be fair, it is hard to understand why a U.S. Senator would step DOWN to become gov of a state with a weak governor form of govt. He/she can’t even reprieve a mass murderer waiting his turn in the gas chamber. If she really wanted to do something at the state level, she should be running where the power is, Lt. Gov. There has to be something else involved in her decision. That would be a good question for the monitor to ask today. Actually, 15 minutes from now. Did you watch? It strated off badly with an advertisement by AARP. Hutchison showed why she is the most popular pol in Texas . She was smooth and had command of the facts. In response to a question from Perry, Hutchison went on the record of supporting Roe vs Wade! She sounded like the old time clothes hanger arguments of the past. Not good for a candidate claiming the conservative mantel. Her support of the fedl bail outs left wanting. Perry was mostly on defense. He talked about past successes, such as business-friendly tort reform, that limits the excesses of law suits that has drawn jobs to the state. Debra Medina was a surprise. As an RN, she was the only one who knew Texas law allowed elderly to be taken off ventilators to die against their wishes and the wishes of their family. After a slick question from Hutchison, Medina responded saying she wants to eliminate property taxes and replace it with a broad based consumer sales taxes. This reflected on Perry. Medina is a gun-carrying common sense patriot who thinks the State of Texas should spend more time defending our southern border. Her answers were solid conservative but still at odds with the other 2. Debra was the only of the three to make herself available for questions after the debate. They said the debate will be available at: TexasDebates.org http://texasdebates.org/video.php The Texas primary is scheduled for March 2. One last thing. I’m still wondering if there is connection to a Susan Hutchison from King County ( Seattle ), who spells her last name the same unusual way, with a missing “n”. Turns out she is running for a local office. http://your.kingcounty.gov/elections/pamphlet/pamphlet.aspx?cid=33588&eid=1232 Haiti ‘Twas early ‘60’s when I was a young naval airman serving aboard the USS Wasp making a carrot-and-stick visit to Haiti . The Hangar bay was filled with Care packages, and the civilian officials from the island were treated to a show of force. They and I high up on )& deck watched a nuclear sub and nuclear frigate show off. It was awesome. Afterwards we had some eye-opening shore liberty where we saw what abject poverty was like---a crowded city lined with roadside vendors in front of windowless shacks with walls of corrugated steel, and prostitutes on the curbs drawing passer-bys into the whore houses. In the 90’s the govt Haitian pols were giving each other necklaces made of rubber tires. They’d tie them around an opponents neck and set them afire. What a way to die. Clinton was backing a defrocked priest, if I remember right, and Jimmy Carter was doing his thing, negotiating a peace between the warring parties. And the B-52’s had to abort their mission when Carter refused orders to get out of harm’s way. Clinton ’s man won, but was later driven from office in a wave of corruption. Ah, the good ole days. NEBRASKA There is no better example proving how out-of-touch Washington , DC , is than Sen Ben Nelson who secured a multi-billion bribe for his state. The senator is obviously less honorable than the people he represents. Below is the cover story, but it doesn’t explain why he has fallen so far in the polls when he sold his vote betraying the honest people who elected him. http://www.rr-bb.com/showthread.php?t=124016 The making of a Monopoly The USPS is a true monopoly. Even FedEx and UPS fought for years to get the USPS’s permission to exist. If a corp ever tried to deliver a piece of mail for less than the cost of a first stamp they’d find themselves buried in cease and desist orders from the USG/USPS. So you see, when BHO said the USPS is the model the prez cited for his nationwide group health insurance program: start up your own health clinic/groups health insurance, and abide by the rules and regs the insurance czar thinks appropriate.

Have you noticed the WH is not concerned about how many Dems will survive their next election? Have you wondered how Obama will be able to get on the ballots of 50 states in 2012 without a birth certificate, hmmm. Question of the day. How long and deep does a recession have to go to be a depression? REMEMBER WHEN... … the problem was we hadn’t built new refinery in this country for 25 years? At least one refinery has been closed down until demand goes up. Maybe that is their reason for raising gas prices again? The price has nearly doubled since it’s lows last year. Either that or George Soros and Goldman Sachs are “playing” in futures again. LAST WORD Turn your speakers up Star Spangled Banner sung by Sandi Patty http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=by_ayjw_hcM Things you can't say aloud---because the answer might scare you. How does Obama plan to get registered on state ballots in 2012 without a birth certificate? -- THE TRUTH IS A. Powerful. C. In the eye of the beholder B. Irrelevant D. All of the above.
