Is it Time to Put Partisan Politics Aside and Actually Get Something Done?

Mike Rowe with Glen BeckThere is a profound truth that often gets ignored in the haze of political warfare. Sometime, in order to actually get something done, you have to work WITH the other side! Wow, what a concept! It is easy to just hate the other side and say, "When we get back in power, we will fix everything!" But life for those in need of work still goes on. They can't wait till 2016 for a paycheck. Yet, for some reason, we can't see past our hatred of the other side to realize we must work with the party in power to solve problems.

Anti-Catholic Art Alive and Well in San Antonio

Issues: 

If residents of San Antonio don’t wake up to the reality of what is overtaking their city, there won’t be any resemblance to the quite conservative place I call my hometown.

Tackling the Problem of Human Trafficking of Runaway and Foster Youth

Issues: 

In my former life, I was a criminal court judge for 22 years and spent 8 years as a prosecutor in Texas. Child abusers are the worst criminals in our society. But too often the justice system ignores the victim. So Congressman Jim Costa (D-CA) and I founded the Victims' Rights Caucus. The VRC is currently focused on combating human trafficking.

This topic is of particular interest to me because my hometown of Houston, Texas is unfortunately a hub for this despicable crime.

What Went Wrong with HealthCare.Gov?

Even though the Administration had three years to prepare for the launch of the government website where millions of Americans will be compelled to buy health insurance under ObamaCare, HealthCare.gov has been “live” for almost a month and there seems to be no end in sight to its problems. Since October 1, Americans have run into widespread amounts of glitches and error messages on the site, and millions have been unable to sign up as was advertised. It’s clear the online rollout

Ken Paxton Supporters Revert to Name Calling When Shown Paxton’s Vote to Mandate Smart Meter Fee for ALL Texans

previous article:

Fact: Texas Attorney General Candidates Ken Paxton and Dan Branch voted in 2005 to FORCE Texans to get a Smart Meter and FORCED Texans to pay for them. The laws they voted to approve reveal the shocking truth that even they cannot deny. They passed laws that specifically forced the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) to implement Smart Meters and to create a fee for Texans to pay for them. Texas Attorney General Candidate Barry Smitherman is the only candidate in the race who has listened to the outcry from conservatives and in response, has teamed up with conservatives in the Texas Legislature, like State Rep. David Simpson, to try to amend the law and make Smart Meters optional instead of mandatory.

Obama Administration to give Americans running head start before enforcing the Individual Mandate

Still unwilling to admit that the launch of Healthcare.gov has been an embarrassing failure, the White House has announced that the penalty for not purchasing health insurance may be delayed “by up to six weeks.” This means that we have another few weeks before we’re forced into what has become the most visible vehicle for government overreach since the New Deal.
