Ratings of the 2011 Nevada Legislature 
Executive Summary
by Dan Burdish & David Mansdoerfer

“I’m never quite sure what the point of legislative report cards are. To give the elected officials – or their opponents – fodder for the next campaign? To show how lawmakers voted on issues of import to the special interest? To get media coverage? Maybe some of all of the above.”

– RalstonFlash, 8/29/11

In accordance with our motto – “Putting the Public Back in Public Policy” – Citizen Outreach believes legislative ratings are extremely useful to Nevada citizens in helping them determine how their elected officials voted up in Carson City.

·         How a sports board in Nevada is attempting to turn our youth athletes into a bunch of little wusses

·         Nevada GOP caucus news – including why I don’t think Republicans here will end up losing ANY delegates to the national convention despite technically breaking the rules

CLARK COUNTY GOP SALUTES NEVADA WOMEN IN KANSAS CITY

The CCRP congratulates the women's clubs throughout Nevada for their accomplishments and for the recognition they received in Kansas City last weekend. This recognition shows the rest of the United States what we in Nevada have known for a long time -- the Women's Clubs are always there, volunteering to walk, make phone calls, plan and attend events, and do whatever they are asked in the effort to get Republicans elected.

Congratulations to you all, and we look forward to a continued close relationship with these hardworking Republicans.

Dave Gibbs

Chairman, CCRP

Nevada Women Shine in Kansas City

(Lori Piotrowski) – The Silver State had lots of reasons to be proud last weekend. At the 36^th Biennial Convention of the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW), Nevada’s clubs were recognized at the local and state levels for excellence.

PROSECUTE ILLEGAL ALIENS AND DOJ WILL FIRE YOU!

DOJ CUTS, REASSIGNS 81 IMMIGRATION PROSECUTORS

With the end of the federal fiscal year last Friday, the temporary funding for 81 immigration-dedicated federal prosecutors has ended. Of those, thirteen have lost their jobs while 68 others are being reassigned within the Justice Department. One lawyer affected by the shake-up says that the loss of immigration prosecutors will only make the job that much harder as fewer people try to bear the overwhelming burden. David Bunham, co-director of the Transactional Records Clearinghouse – the same organization that found that illegal immigrant criminal cases filed in June accounted for 52 percent of new prosecutions in the nation’s federal courts – called the move by the Obama administration “curious.”

ANOTHER MISGUIDED LIBERAL JUDGE MAKING AMERICA LOOK FOOLISH

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT GRANTED WORK PRIVILEGES IN JAIL SENTENCE

Conservatives in Wisconsin are outraged that a local judge granted work release privileges to an illegal immigrant completing an 11-month jail term for driving drunk in the wrong direction on an interstate. Among the top protestors of this ludicrous decision by the judge is Milwaukee CountySheriff David A. Clarke Jr. who, like us, cannot understand why an illegal immigrant was given a “bed and breakfast” jail sentence at the cost of taxpayers.

Rodruiguez-Benitez, 35, was pulled over with a blood-alcohol level three times the legal limit after driving the wrong direction on an interstate causing an oncoming car to intentionally crash into the median wall to avoid a head-on collision. According to Benitez’s lawyer, his client has a “high degree” of character and education that makes the work release “appropriate.” Sheriff Clarke told his staff to contact U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and ask that the man be deported.

Race to impeach: Solyndra or Fast and Furious?  ByDon Surber, Charleston (WV) Daily Mail

Two evolving scandals are neck to neck in the race to impeach President Obama. While Fast and Furious — the ATF gun-running for Mexican drug lords — is the more imaginative of the two scandals, House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Fred Upton and Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee Chairman Cliff Stearns are following the money on Solyndra. Keep the dreamy name (adding gate to it would ruin the charm). They have the edge as they already are at what-did-he-know and when-did-he-know-it stage. First, the latest on Fast and Furious, from the Houston Chronicle....

Obama Spends $25 Million to Prevent Illegal Immigrants’ Kids from Getting Fat  By Ben Johnson, The White House Watch

Law-abiding politicians would deport illegal immigrants; the Obama administration spends scarce tax dollars assuring their well-being. Judicial Watch reports the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has a ground-breaking new program to stamp out childhood obesity -- among the children of illegals. (Apparently Americans aren't the only ones who have "gotten a little soft.") "Like all other child obesity war programs launched by the Obama Administration this one will target poor ethnic minorities," writes Judicial Watch. But this program will serve "limited English" communities....

HERMAN CAIN CAN UNSEAT OBAMA...YES HE CAN

Herman Cain Proves the Power of Ideas in the Republican Race  By Floyd and Mary Beth Brown, FloydReports.com

America's media is obsessed with every tick of every poll. The reason they cover polls is because they don't want to cover ideas. Republicans should resist being sucked into this reality show mentality and focus instead on the candidate's ideas. Herman Cain used this to great effect in the Florida Straw Poll. His powerful speech concluded with a riff in which he talked about how the media had declared, "I can't win." He then empowered his audience by telling them, "You decide who wins, not the media." Good advice from a candidate that is now watching this particular race from....

HOW TO FIX OUR ECONOMY

Submitted by: Nancy Battle

Dear Mr. President,

Please find below my suggestion for fixing America 's economy. Instead of giving billions of dollars to companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan.

You can call it the "Patriotic Retirement Plan":

There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

HR 973 PROHIBITS SHARIA LAW IN U.S.A. - SUPPORT IT!

Conservative American,

Rezwan Ferdaus, a Boston college grad and band drummer, 26, has been arrested and indicted on charges of plotting a terrorist attack on the U.S. Capitol Building and the Pentagon. This American citizen is alleged to have intended to fly remote control airplanes into the targets.

Each "airplane" would have explosive devices aimed to the targets. , setting them on fire. As the buildings were evacuated, Ferdaus allegedly hoped to fire into the crowds with assault rifles and grenades.

This is a major "coup" for United States counter-terrorism groups. When Ferdaus started to seek fellow jihadists online, the FBI began to monitor him. Officials stress that at no time was Ferdaus outside the control of his undercover handlers. 

MARCHERS, OBAMA, and HIS MINIONS

Deceit of The Left - Wall Street Marchers
By Lee S Gliddon Jr

We are seeing the Left fund marches to speak out against the job providers of the United States of America. At the same time we are seeing the Senate Majority Leader, Harry 'Hands Up' Reid destroy all attempts to gain bipartisanship in the U.S. Congress and a President that represents all things inept in this life.

It now appears as if George Soros and his cohorts are moving actively to undermine any chance of gaining more jobs and the system of trade we have enjoyed since we became a nation. He is the 'puppet master' of the Liberal causes.

Our President, rather than acting as a American concerned with the welfare of the citizens of America, is actively promoting an ideology bent on the economic destruction of our nation. His intent is to serve the 'puppet master and gain power."
