Boycott Mexico? Time To Boycott Illegal Drugs!

A few days ago on June 26th, during the O’Reilly Factor seen on FOX TV, Bill O’Reilly made an extreme request. He asked the listening audience that maybe it was time to Boycott Mexico because of all the unattended minor children crossing our borders. You know, to stop buying products from Mexico and to stop traveling into Mexico. O’Reilly got me thinking. Should we Boycott Mexico because of the innocent children entering the United States or boycott Mexico because of the cartel drug trafficking? Read more about Boycott Mexico?

The Texas House-Representing Voters or Subsidized Developers?

The other night at The MET Youth Building, State Representative Allen Fletcher faced a crowd of over 500 concerned, and might I add, a tad angry, constituency. The source of their anger? Two projected low-income housing units to be built in the Cypress area; one at Queenston and W. Little York called the Catalon, the other to the north of 290 near the Ravensway subdivision, named The Lodge of Huffmeister.

On hand to kick things off was James Hardin, president of The Cypress Coalition. He and his wife, Barbara Hardin have started this group in order to fight the possible construction of these two facilities.

Protecting Constitutional Checks and Balances

Here in the Land of the Free, we value our rights. Our Founding Fathers set forth clear protections in the Bill of Rights to ensure all Americans would enjoy basic freedoms. And now when any federal politician or law enforcement official begins their service to this nation, they take an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. But these days it seems like the Obama administration doesn’t care to stand by this pledge. Time and time again, we have seen the president overstep his constitutional authority.

Don't Shake Hands?!

Don't shake hands was heard across the baseball playing field after the game was called. Never in the hundreds of baseball games that I have attended have I witnessed such poor sportsmanship.This was an especially disturbing outburst since it involved my grandson's baseball team of 13 year olds, the TERPS, who had just won.

The Clintons' Own IRS Scandal!

Issues: 

In 1996, Al Salvi appeared to be a tough opponent in a political race against Dick Durbin to fill an open Senate seat. Close to the election, Salvi was hit with charges of violating campaign laws and found himself on the defensive during the stretch run. After the election, an IRS agent went to Salvi and offered him a deal: promise to never run for office and the charges will be dropped. Salvi said no and found himself spending a significant portion to defend himself before a Federal Court threw the case out. The IRS agent's name was Lois Lerner.

Supreme Court Decides to Protect Religious Freedom

I applaud the Supreme Court’s decision in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby to rebuke President Obama’s overreach and protect religious freedom. 

I am very glad the Supreme Court once again rebuked President Obama’s overreach and decided to protect religious freedom. Today’s decision is a win for my constituents in West Texas and the American people. The federal government should never force hardworking small business owners to violate their religious beliefs in order to comply with the beliefs of bureaucrats in Washington.

America – Imagine the World without Her: Countering Progressivism’s Attack on the very Idea of America!

Having met Dinesh D'Souza briefly, having seen his first movie 2016 and read that book, and now having seen the new movie America—Imagine the World without Her twice, I could hardly wait to read the book the movie was based on. I was expecting a few arrows directed at Obama, but although on target, those were quite limited. Rather than a typical political treatise, this book is much,

Hobby Lobby Decision a Victory for Religious Freedom

Today is a victory for religious freedom across America. The Supreme Court rightly affirmed that the Obama administration cannot require family-owned companies to provide a product or service in violation of their religious beliefs. It upholds the idea that companies can have a conscience.

There are many reasons to oppose Obamacare, but the contraceptives mandate strikes at the core of

Humanitarian Crisis At The Border

Issues: 

The state that gives Obama so much ‘trouble’ is the state receiving the illegals. Illigals mostly from Central America are arriving by the thousands through the Mexico-Texas border and are causing havoc as Texas officials try to deal with the harrowing dilemma. Governor Rick Perry announced that the state is providing $1.3 million of taxpayer money per week until the end of the year.
