Constitution Offensive
Jun 16th
On June 9,2010 Fox news reported, “Wilder Publications warns readers of its reprints of the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, Common Sense, the Articles of Confederation, and the Federalist Papers, among others, that ‘This book is a product of its time and does not reflect the same values as it would if it were written today.” Check out the disclaimer below:
”Any idea that’s 100 years old will probably offend someone or other,” Olson told FoxNews.com. “…But if there’s anything that you ought to be able to take at a first gulp for yourself and then ask your parents if you’re More >
What Happened to HB 1156?
May 21st
HB1156 Victims Rights Bill
I suspected all along that the Democrat majority would kill my bill. I was quite suprised when it passed both the House and Senate
without one no vote. At that point it seemed like it would certainly be signed into law. Well as we know, the Governor is a powerful man.
You see, my bill DID NOT have a crossfile. I did that on purpose to prevent this type of game from happening. As we approached the final two days of session, my Chairman told me that the Senate was holding my bill because he was not going to pass Senator Simonaires More >

State to Recognize Same Sex Benifits
May 19th
Today, the Maryland Human Resources Manager sent an e-mail notification to all members of the State legislature indicating that the state would now accept valid marriage certificates from other states.
This action was initated back on February 24th when Attorney General Gansler determined (against current law) that Maryland would recognize out of state same sex marriages for the purpose of benifits. I brought Impeachment Charges against the A/G for violating Maryland law.
Now I must consider bringing a law suit against the state for violating Maryland and Federal law by allowing certain tax and health benifits to same sex couples. ****************************************** From: More >
Name Recognition or Identity Crisis?
May 11th
Most candidates crave widespread name recognition when running for elected office. In fact, they spend thousands of dollars to insure that they obtain a certain level of name recognition. They buy television spots, signs, banners and regularly mail annoying political propaganda to targeted audiences.
It is true; name recognition does make the difference between winning and loosing in most political campaigns. It is also true that in most cases it costs lots of money to obtain a winning amount of name recognition in a specific market. On the other hand, there is what is known as earned media. That is More >

A National Divide
Apr 22nd
America finds itself facing a National divide as we approach the 2010 elections. States across America will decide once again who will be elected to lead their respective states, and the nation as a whole, into the future.
The divide is one of a philosophical nature. The question facing every voting American is whether the nation will lean further left towards socialism (a nice word for communism) or will the pendulum swing back towards the Founders’ intent that American citizens remain free.
There are many who voted for President Obama who have now admittedly realized that the current President may in fact More >
