“HASTERT RULE” LETTER SUBMITTED TO SPEAKER BOEHNER
Citizen Outreach’s coalition letter urging adoption of the “Hastert Rule” – by which legislation would not be brought to the House floor unless a majority of the GOP caucus was in favor of it - was faxed to House Speaker John Boehner on Independence Day, 2013.

OPPOSE THE GAS TAX HIKE!
Clark County commissioners – seven Democrats - will soon vote on putting a new gas tax hike in place and on auto-pilot ostensibly for union-only road construction projects which will be overpriced thanks to the organized labor welfare program known as “prevailing wage” and is asking for public input.
“Anyone from everyday citizens to business owners can weigh in on a proposal that allows the County Commission to raise gas taxes by about 3 cents a gallon for each of the next three years,” reports the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
You have until close-of-business next Friday, July 12, to make your feelings known. Just shoot an email to: bloutreach@clarkcountynv.gov
My email two days ago said nothing more than this in the subject line: “I oppose the gas tax hike.”
In return, I received the following response from Lynda Smith, Senior Franchise Specialist for Business License/Franchise Services…which, as everyone knows, is the absolutely necessary backbone of critical local government operations:
Speak now, or forever hold your peace…and your wallet!

MCKEON’S MACACA
According to official, stamped and dated documents I’ve obtained from the Los Angeles Superior Court, Dave McKeon, candidate to be the next chairman of the Clark County Republican Party, is…and this is the exact phrase used by the Court…a “domestic violence perpetrator.”
And he signed the document admitting it!
But don’t take my word for it. You’ll find links to all the documents by clicking here and seeing for yourself. Seeing, after all, is believing.
And then there’s a police report I just obtained in which one of McKeon’s sons told the investigating officer he didn’t want to go to Vegas with his father because the last time they were together McKeon had hurt him.
You can read all about this particular incident by clicking here.
And finally, I spoke with McKeon’s former wife, Monica McKeon, at length yesterday. And I feel really badly for folks – some of whom have been friends of mine for darned near 20 years - who have been taken in by this “master con artist” and son of a...congressman.
I know some of you are quite angry with me for exposing this guy, but you’ll be even angrier with yourselves if you elect him as your chairman of the GOP and he brings down candidate after candidate in the 2014 election cycle, embarrassing everyone in the process.
His little “Shut up!” flare-up in the Bahama Breeze debate was just a tiny glimpse of what will inevitably come down the road once the Democrats and their allies lay into him.
Just know this, my friends: It’s not your fault!
I initially bought into McKeon’s bull-and-hype routine, as well. The guy is, indeed, a master showman who I have no doubt can break into tears on cue at the drop of a hat. He knows all the right things to say. He’s juiced up with confidence and enthusiasm. And he speaks with unabashed authority.
Yes, it’s easy for anybody to be fooled by such a huckster. But I’m not going to let this guy make fools of friends of mine any longer.
The jig is up.
