DEAN HELLER FOR U.S. SENATE - DEFEAT A TAX RAISING LIBERAL!

Conservatives--
Would you vote to impose a massive energy tax on Nevada families and small businesses and create new job-killing regulations in the middle of a recession?
That's what Shelley Berkley did three years ago next Tuesday. At the time, our state had an 11.7% unemployment rate and 159,248 of our friends and neighbors were out of work.
When it came time to do what was right for our state, Shelley Berkley voted against us—to increase the cost of our gas and electricity, and to kill Nevada jobs.
Will you help us build our grassroots campaign to take by the U.S. Senate by contributing $6 today?

IS THE EUROPEAN UNION IN TROUBLE?

Silvio Berlusconi: 'Leaving The Euro Is Not A Blasphemy'

Reuters  |  Posted: 06/20/2012 3:04 pm Updated: 06/20/2012 3:49 pm
ROME, June 20 (Reuters) - Italy should consider leaving the euro unless Germany agrees to the European Central Bank acting as a guarantor for sovereign debt and printing money to reflate the economy, former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said on Wednesday.

"Leaving the euro is not a blasphemy," he wrote on his Facebook page.

If Germany does not agree to a new role for the ECB then it should consider leaving the euro itself, Berlusconi said. "I have spoken to some German experts who would be in favour," said Berlusconi, leader of one of two main parties backing pro-European Prime Minister Mario Monti.

SILVER STATE CONFIDENTIAL 06/21/2012

LV Chamber Sowing Seeds of Its Members' Own Destruction
By Chuck Muth
 
Several years ago, to a “Perspective 2008” audience in Las Vegas, Somer Hollingsworth of the Nevada Development Authority observed: “Government has one business: That’s to beat the crap out of you.” 

It was true back then, and remains true today.

And while there are certainly business organizations and associations out there that do darned good work on behalf of Nevada’s businesses, the state’s largest such advocate has a track record and reputation for going-along-to-get-along and cutting deals so that the government only beats half the crap out of you. 

Feel better?

Now, I don’t want to name any names (the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce), but this particular business organization endorsed 16 legislative candidates in the June 12 primary elections.  And only ONE of those candidates voted against last year’s re-imposition of that $620 million worth of tax hikes that primarily hit Nevada’s businesses (license fees and payroll tax) and/or signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge promising not to extend those business taxes again next year (Assemblyman Pete Livermore of Carson City).

IN SHORT - OBAMA'S PLAN IS 'TAX AND CONTINUE SPENDING'

Obama’s Terrifying Tax Trick

Jun 21, 2012 10:39 am
A common theme since the Occupy Wall Street pageants commenced last year has been that Democrats, and more specifically the President, somehow represent the 99% and that Republicans only support the 1 %. This misguided thinking is aided and abetted by the Administration and mainstream media that continuously and purposely try to divert attention from [...]

Book Recommendation: War Shots. Norm Hatch and the U.S. Marine Corps Combat Cameramen of World War II. By Charles Jones
http://www.warshotsbook.com/ (For autographed copy)
http://www.amazon.com/War-Shots-Marine-Combat-Cameramen/dp/0811706311/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1340305643&sr=1-1&keywords=War+Shots+Jones
Okay, I had a bias. I couldn’t wait to get my copy, and then to read it. I came to this book expecting to love it and I did. In April, my wife Bonnie and I were invited to the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation’s 2012 Awards Dinner, where I received an award for my book, Old Jarhead Poems. Sitting next to me was Chip Jones, the author, who also received a writing award War Shots. And sitting next to Bonnie was Norm Hatch! Maj. Hatch is in his 90s now, has some mobility challenges, but I wish my mental acuity was equal to his. Talking with him was a treat. This is a guy who rubbed shoulders with the pantheon of WWII Marine greats, and, from the stream of Generals stopping by our table to speak to him, is considered at least a minor deity himself by the leadership of today’s Corps. Hatch got an Academy Award for short documentary in 1944 for his Tarawa filming under fire.

Then, two weeks later, I was watching a story about Tarawa on the Military History Channel, and there was Hatch being interviewed. I only wish I had read this book before I met him.

I learned a great deal about the combat cameramen of WWI, as expected, but also new details about Tarawa and Iwo Jima, including the controversy over the flag raising photo, which Hatch helped to resolve, as one of his men shot the movie of it going up. He was also in Nagasaki right after the war, a very interesting chapter, and made a documentary that helped the effort to save the Marine Corps from extinction in that post-war political fight. Hatch was not only incredibly brave, but very resourceful and competent. This book will be appreciated by every Marine, by WWII buffs, and by those interested in military history, the movie industry or human courage. The term “Greatest Generation” has been over-used, and we have some pretty great people defending America today, but Norm Hatch is a great Marine, and this book made me very proud to have met him and worn the same uniform.

OBAMA DIRECTING STATES TO ISSUE DRIVER'S LICENSES TO ILLEGALS?

STATES NOW LIKELY TO PROVIDE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WITH DRIVER’S LICENSES
 
Thanks to the Obama administration’s recent executive fiat granting backdoor amnesty to 800,000+ illegal immigrants, Arizona is studying last week’s White House directive as possible grounds for giving illegal immigrants the legal right to drive. Under a 1996 Arizona law, any person seeking a driver’s license must prove identity and legal presence in this country. The recent move by the feds to issue residency and work permits to illegal immigrants meeting the backdoor amnesty criteria may make these illegal immigrants eligible to apply for and receive driver’s licenses.

THE EU MIMICS OBAMA - CASTS BLAME ON "ANYONE BUT US"

Submitted by: Donald Hank with writing
 
The Washington Times spins the truth thusly:
EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso insisted the origins of the eurozone crisis lay in the unorthodox policies of American capitalism.
Barroso is not really blaming unorthodox methods or creativity per se and he isn't blaming capitalism per se, as the Times seems to want us to believe, although he once did belong to a leftwing party in Portugal. He is saying what well-informed Americans already know:
Crony capitalism, with government investing hand in hand with business -- Fanny and Freddy come to mind -- did in fact bring down our financial system. The government pushed banks to lend to the insolvent with no down payment and often with no documentation required, and many banks, realizing the crooked government would pick up the pieces if they failed, dived into the feast and created toxic derivatives that poisoned the world's finances.
Therefore, as hard as it is to say it, Barroso is partly right this time. He properly put smarty pants Obama in his place.

THE GOP BEST 'WISE UP' - VOTES TO BE LOST!

Why is Romney Vetting an Ineligible VP Prospect?Okay, so Marco Rubio is being vetted for the VP position by the Romney campaign. However, since it is well-known that Marco Rubio is not a Natural Born Citizen of the United States, he is obviously not eligible for the office of President under Article II or Vice President under the XII Amendment........
