Delegate Dwyer's Dispatches
District 31 Anne Arundel County
Why I Support the Second Amendment
Sep 21st
I support the second amendment because I took an oath to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution and the Maryland Constitution and all of their amendments.
The Declaration of Independence recognizes the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Without the right to Keep and Bear Arms, we the people would have no defense against a tyrannical government. Additionally, without the right to bear arms, we would not have the ability to protect ourselves, our lives, or our property as the Founders so clearly intended.
I have always campaigned with the Second Amendment as one of my core issues. I More >
The Liberal Spin on the TEA Party
Sep 17th
Across America today, the general media is portraying conservative TEA Party activists as some radical, racist group of individuals who are out to destroy America.
Conservatives and TEA Party activists must stay focused. The TEA in TEA Party stands for Taxed Enough Already. Do not let the opposition portray this movement as anything else. Do not let the liberal media define you.
The truth is, the majority of elected Liberals (mostly Democrat) and Party Leaders are the real threat to America. Don’t take my word for it, simply look at who opposes stopping Illegal Immigration in Maryland, for one example. Governor O’Malley, Attorney More >
“Hate Rhetoric” with respect to Views on Homosexuality
Sep 16th
The following article is an excellent one. The emphasis is added, and highlights his main points. I have been accused time and again of having this “hate” toward homosexuals because I disagree with their lifestyle, which simply isn’t so. Joe Sobran has been accused of the same, and explains why this “use of hate” is an illegitimate one.

Thank you!
Sep 16th
I am honored by the support I received in the primary election. Maryland needs strong, convicted statesmen to lead her through these tough times, and I gladly accept the challenge before me. I promise to continue to uphold the State and US Constitutions, I promise to continue to defend your rights as citizens, and I promise to do these to the best of my ability. Thank you.

Sign of the times: Candidates try to connect
By LIAM FARRELL, Staff Writer
Capital Gazette Communications
Published 09/09/10Standing on a highway overpass in the heat of an early August morning, Del. Don Dwyer was undeniably in his element.
Commuters heading north that morning were greeted by not only the Republican from Glen Burnie, but also by an almost 80-foot-wide display of signs and flags. The delegate, seeking his third term, tried to make a connection – however brief – by pointing and waving at the driver of every car, truck and van that passed beneath his feet.
Dwyer, one of the most conservative More >
Dwyer Not Endorsed by the Gazette
Sep 2nd
I was not surprised nor should you be that the Gazette did not endorse me yet again.
It is obvious that our local news paper is more liberal than I am. Fortunately, their editorial attacks only bolster my supporters.
I did not go to Annapolis to make friends, nor did I go to go along get along; I went to make a difference. I have and will continue to defend the Constitution on which this great State was founded.
The editors somehow believe that it is inappropriate for me to stand and defend what I believe in as an elected official. They also believe it was irresponsible for More >
