Country singer Lee Greenwood endorses Herman Cain
Post Date: 2011-10-11 13:12:30 by Happy Quanzaa

Herman Cain has the support of a man who is proud to be an American — and has a song to prove it. Lee Greenwood, who is best known for his patriotic hit “God Bless the USA,” is part of a group of musicians who offered their support to Cain, a Republican candidate for president, Monday in Nashville. (RELATED: Cain trails Obama by just three points) The group is calling itself “Artists Raising Cain.” “I felt now was the perfect time to pull our friends in the music and entertainment community together,” said group co-founder Douglas Warren. “We’re so passionate about this candidate, Herman Cain.” The group appeared together with Cain at a ...
Obama disconnects rhetoric, reality
Post Date: 2011-10-10 17:09:30 by jwpegler
5 Comments
In President Barack Obama's sales pitch for his jobs bill, there are two versions of reality: The one in his speeches and the one actually unfolding in Washington. When Obama accuses Republicans of standing in the way of his nearly $450 billion plan, he ignores the fact that his own party has struggled to unite behind the proposal. When the president says Republicans haven't explained what they oppose in the plan, he skips over the fact that Republicans who control the House actually have done that in detail. And when he calls on Congress to "pass this bill now," he slides past the point that Democrats control the Senate and were never prepared to move immediately, ...

Ron Paul Wins Values Voters Straw Poll

WASHINGTON - Rep. Ron Paul of Texas is the top presidential pick of the thousands of social conservatives who are meeting this weekend, winning 37 percent in a non-binding straw poll. Georgia businessman Herman Cain came in second at the Values Voters Summit in Washington with 23 percent and former Sen. Rick Santorum placed third with 16 percent in Saturday's straw poll among the Republicans' White House contenders. Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota and Gov. Rick Perry of Texas tied with 8 percent. Paul, making his second run at the GOP nomination, regularly fares well in such straw polls because his fervent supporters flock to the events to give him wins. Yet Paul trails other ...
Ron Paul Launches National-Security Themed Ad

Republican presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul is out with a new ad that portrays him as a veteran who will secure America’s borders and rebuild its defenses. The 30-second spot titled “Secure” includes flashing images of military helicopters and aircraft carriers. The ad states that America will not be the world’s policeman and spend trillions overseas. Paul has said that he would end all military engagements around the world and bring every troop home. Unlike most of his GOP rivals, Paul has advocated against building a large fence at the US-Mexico border. Paul said in September at a GOP/ Politico debate that “fences may be used against us, keeping us ...
Dems Change Rules; Senate In Chaos

The Senate descended into procedural chaos Thursday night as Democrats forced a change in Senate rules and shut down a GOP effort to bog down a Chinese currency bill with a series of unrelated amendments. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s move to suddenly overhaul a key Senate rule without warning infuriated Republicans and put an already bitterly divided chamber on edge as senators from both sides of the aisle traded angry accusations over whether the fight would fundamentally limit the rights of the minority party. By a 51-48 vote, the Senate voted along party lines to change the precedent and limit how amendments can be considered once a filibuster is defeated. Under normal ...
Romney Promises to Boost Defense Spending

Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney says he will offer a more assertive foreign policy than President Barack Obama, promising increased military spending, a strong deterrent against Iran and an investment in missile defense systems. Romney, 64, plans to outline his foreign and national security goals in a speech this morning at The Citadel, the military academy in Charleston, South Carolina. The early primary state has a traditionally pro-military Republican base. "America has the strongest economy and the strongest military in the world. In an American Century, America leads the free world and the free world leads the entire world," Romney will say, according to ...
Romney: Don't Cut Pentagon Budget

MT. PLEASANT, S.C. - Mitt Romney expressed opposition to cuts in the military budget and proposed beefing up the Navy at a Thursday stop in this naval community. "I want to make sure we do not shrink the military budget," the GOP presidential contender told a crowd of about 70 military veterans and campaign supporters gathered in a naval museum in this suburb of Charleston. On the eve of what he has described as a major foreign policy address, Romney attacked President Obama's proposed cuts in the defense budget. "We're still involved in armed conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan," he said. "Wish the president would remind us of that more often." Romney ...
Tea Partiers Desert Perry For Cain, Sending Texas Governor Plummeting In Polls

Tea Party Republicans have deserted Rick Perry — at least for the moment — spending the Texas governor spiraling downward in a series of new national and state-specific polls released this week. The new nationwide polls show Perry falling to third–and sometimes fourth–behind a newly restored frontrunner Mitt Romney and a newly competitive Herman Cain. The state polls provide a warning sign for Perry; in North Carolina, Nebraska and West Virginia, Cain is king (for the time being, at least) and Perry’s seems to be a second thought. Here are some of the key trends we’ve identified: Mitt Romney (AP photo) Romney regains first place as Perry drops behind Cain ...

ABC News is reporting that Sarah Palin has announced via a letter to her supporters that she will NOT be running or President. This ends months (if not years) of speculation on will she or won’t she with regards for her plans to run for the highest office in the United States. There were many indicators suggesting that she would not be running, and this letter published today confirms that idea. Palin opens by saying that her decision came after “much prayer and serious consideration,” adding that she is putting her family ahead of any presidential aspirations. She then added that she can be more effective in advocating her conservative beliefs by helping elect other public ...
Herman Cain Rises, Rick Perry Slides In New CBS News Poll

Herman Cain has moved into a tie with Mitt Romney atop the field of Republican presidential candidates, according to a new CBS News poll, while Rick Perry has fallen 11 percentage points in just two weeks. (Credit: CBS) The poll shows Cain, who stood at just five percent support two weeks ago, now holding 17 percent support among Republican primary voters. That puts the former Godfather's Pizza CEO into a tie with Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, whose support has essentially held steady over the past two weeks. Perry, meanwhile, has dropped from 23 percent support to just 12 percent support over the past two weeks, a sign that the Texas governor's shaky debate ...

Chris Christie not running for president in 2012, source says Christie has called a 1 pm press conference in Trenton to announce the decision. He acknowledged in recent days that he was reconsidering his repeated refusals in the past to take a pass on the race. But, Christie was also quite open about his doubts about his readiness for the race and the challenges inherent in starting so late in the presidential process. Christie was heavily courted by large Republican donors as well as a handful of elected officials and party activists in key states. That recruitment process picked up steam following several mediocre debate performances by Texas Gov. Rick Perry, showings that raised ...
Paul proving to be a force in 2012 GOP contest

McALLEN, Texas—Ron Paul, antagonist of the Federal Reserve and advocate for the gold standard, probably won't capture the Republican presidential nomination. But with his libertarian leanings energizing a small though growing group of passionate conservatives, the quirky Texas congressman is proving to be a force in the 2012 contest. Four months before the initial voting, Paul is having such a big impact on the race that some Republican operatives are convinced that he will play spoiler in important states, siphoning votes and attention from his rivals for months to come and helping determine the nominee. He's empowered by unconventional but successful fundraising techniques, ...
Barone: Time to raise Cain to contender status

Is Herman Cain a serious contender for the Republican presidential nomination? It's a question no one in the pundit world was asking until the past week. Cain has never held public office. When he ran for the Senate in Georgia in 2004 he lost the primary by a 52 to 26 percent margin. He has zero experience in foreign or defense policy, where presidents have the most leeway to set policy. When questioned about the Middle East earlier this year he clearly had no idea what the "right of return" is. His solid performance in the Fox News/Google debate Sept. 22 didn't get pundits to take his chances seriously. Neither did his 37 to 15 percent victory over Rick Perry in the ...
Could Christie Survive The Tea Party?

Republicans nationally remain enthralled by Gov. Chris Christie, the gregarious, pugnacious, budget-balancing, union-fighting fiscal conservative. Whether they’re ready for the Christie who opposes rolling back gun-control laws, believes it’s wrong to demagogue about immigration or Muslims, and endorses President Barack Obama’s education plans might prove another matter. “The idea of Chris Christie is much more powerful than the reality of Chris Christie,” said Rutgers University political scientist Ross Baker. Odds are, they’re not going to have to pass judgment soon. Christie says he’s not running for president in 2012, though his answers leave people ...

Speeches delivered at the Reagan Library must praise President Reagan, zing Barack Obama, and assert the greatness of the United States. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie hit all those notes Tuesday night. But he also made four key assertions that are now heretical within the Republican Party, and the significance of his speech is almost entirely wrapped up in those passages of politely stated dissent. 1. Compromise is core to politics, a necessary characteristic of good leadership, and the only way to solve problems. This is anathema to a lot of the conservative movement, who regard compromise as tantamount to selling out principle, and support candidates like Michele Bachmann precisely ...

The New York Post - whose proprietor has been among those urging Chris Christie to join the 2012 race - reports that the New Jersey governor is growing more serious, after urging from figures including Henry Kissinger and George W. Bush. The announcement may come as soon as Monday, said sources familiar with Christie’s thinking. The renewed consideration about a White House run came after prodding this week from some Republicans he idolizes, including former First Lady Nancy Reagan, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and former President George W. Bush, sources said. “It’s more than just flattering,” a source close to Christie said, adding they helped ...

Two new Quinnipiac polls provide more evidence the 2012 presidential election may be decided in the Rust Belt. In Pennsylvania, just 43% approve of President Obama's job performance, while 51% say he doesn't deserve a second term. In Ohio, just 42% approve of his job performance, while 51% say he doesn't deserve re-election. That said, Obama still holds narrow leads over Rick Perry and Mitt Romney in head-to-head match-ups in both states. For more on the two polls, see Poll Watch Daily.

Dan Hampton Posted 9/28/11 1:10 p.m. CHICAGO (WLS) - Former Chicago Bears defensive tackle Dan Hampton says he will not be joining his fellow teammates when they visit the White House next month. Hampton, a member of the Bears 1985 Super Bowl championship team, made the comments on Chicago's Mully and Hanley radio show Monday. "It's my personal choice," the four-time Pro Bowler said. "I don't choose to go."

Let it go.” Obama, an ardent fan of his ...

It’s been a rough year for national Republican leaders when it comes to colonial American history. Michele Bachmann thinks Lexington and Concord are in New Hampshire. Sarah Palin thinks Paul Revere rode around ringing bells and sending warning shots to warn the British “they weren’t gonna be takin’ away our arms.” And now Rick Perry has his own unique understanding of the Boston Tea Party. For those who can’t watch clips online, Perry said in the video, “There was a time in our nation’s history when people like you — patriots — they had to disguise themselves and sneak around in Boston, if you will, cities up in the Northeast, in the ...
Eric Cantor Pressed FEMA About Aid For His District As Agency Struggled For Funding

WASHINGTON -- Federal Emergency Management Agency officials have been busy convincing Congress to quickly fill its emergency aid coffers, as the agency finds its funds drained by the natural disasters that have hit the country in recent months. The insistence, led by House Minority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.), that Congress should cut spending elsewhere to offset disaster relief funding, led to a partisan standoff and nearly shut down the government. On Friday, however, FEMA officials found themselves busy answering to Cantor for another reason: He had requested a conference call to get updates on the disbursement of aid requested by Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell (R) for his district, which ...

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - President Barack Obama topped up his re-election war chest with a string of successful West Coast fundraisers that ended Monday and showed soft poll numbers had not dented his ability to raise big money. Despite tough economic times, supporters shelled out for events from Seattle to San Diego that likely raised upward of $5 million in two days, paying up to the legal limit of $35,800 to hear Obama speak. "What this election is about is everyone gets a fair share," he told a packed crowd of over 800 at the House of Blues in Los Angeles after a performance by the rapper B.o.B. Obama's approval rating dropped over the summer as concern mounted the ...
