Although I could share a lot of interesting details about this event and that encounter, what really matters is that this experience served as a reminder to me that there are a significant number of serious questions that I’ve heard about Ann Rivers, which remain unanswered. Consi... Continue reading ...

Congressman Dave Reichert (R-WA-8), has launched an investigation into why AARP has so much love for the Health Care bill HR3200.

President Obama on Wednesday urged Congress to “meet history’s test” and pass comprehensive health care reform, as he offered new guidance — and concessions — to lawmakers struggling to hammer out a deal. In a sweeping and impassioned address, the president tried to issue the definitive outline of his vision for reform as well as convince skeptical lawmakers why they should support that vision. The rare address to a joint session of Congress came at a make-or-break time for health ca... Continue reading ...

the initial sale of a product and the operation of that produ...

his head in the sand.
It appears the congressman from Western Washington (Brian Baird) is
afraid of the people he is supposed to represent , so he is going to
