Somewhere the debate on the gun control issue has taken a horribly wrong turn. Evidence shows that guns don't kill people. People with mental health issues who are taking psychotropic drugs use guns to kill people. We have a national health crisis in regards to how the mentally ill are treated in this country. We have schools and doctors that are working for "Big Pharma" dispensing mind altering drugs like they are candy. In nearly every single mass casualty shooting,

As the newly appointed Texas Director of Cafe Con Leche Republicans (CCLR), I am happy to announce our group's endorsement of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan to be the next President and Vice President of the United States. This summer, Republicans have taken important steps to finding solutions to our broken immigration system through the adoption of pro-immigration reform planks in both the Texas and National Republican Platforms.

Several conflicts where the showdown of federal authority and jurisdiction are testing the very bounds of our Constitution.   Read more »

While I have to agree that the state convention was a great success, it was not without incident. There were many winners and losers as Delegates campaigned for different positions in their Senate and Congressional Districts making for some tense situations.

‘Taking Back our Country’ was the theme of our Texas State Convention and the delegates certainly indicated that that is exactly what we plan to do in November. The convention has come and gone and so much happened that my head is spinning and my feet are still hurting. There is so much to share concerning the convention so I will do it in several articles. We are now beginning to plan for the National Convention that is scheduled for August 27 – 31 in Tampa Bay, Florida.   Read more »
