Texas Democrats can run but they cannot hide from what their party is doing in Washington. Liberty County Democratic officials and candidates can disagree with Nancy Pelosi and they can say they did not vote for Barack Obama. Or they can do as they have for years and wink at certain voters and whisper they are really a conservative, but they were free to announce they were switching parties when Obama was elected. They have been free to publicly denounce the policies of their party.
No such denouncements have been reported. No more party switching has been announced. This is their party and their support of it is all voters can conclude about their stance on the issues.
Therefore when Republicans take the stance that unemployment payments should not be funded by printing more money and extending the national debt and Obama’s Chicago-style political sharks twist and pervert the effort to stop runaway spending into making anyone who wants Congress to cut cost elsewhere to pay for the benefits sound cold and heartless – that is a product of Democrats like Liberty County’s candidates and their officials supporting runaway spending policies.
When Obama and company twist the idea of securing the border and not allowing anyone to cut in line and get in front of those who have not violated immigration laws into making anyone that is not for some form of amnesty program sound cold and heartless – that is a product of Democrats like the folks right here in our county. Their work in the party strengthens a political machine that promotes near borderless policies as a national policy. It rewards a person who snuck into this country illegally by allowing him to be in front of the millions of people who have filed the correct papers and are awaiting their turn.
When Democrats insist on announcing dates we will pull out of Iraq and out of Afghanistan and give terrorists a heads up on our plans and when they use our current economic struggles to run the public debt up in unprecedented fashion and when they set up a mandatory insurance scheme that effectively raises taxes – that is all stuff those who actively build the local Democratic party help to perpetuate on the rest of us.
Please find below a list of only one of the many political lies we have been told – we will call them “inconsistencies”:
Team Obama’s intellectual inconsistencies on unemployment insurance:
1.The Obama Administration has previously supported offsetting the cost of extended UI benefits. In support of the November 2009 law (H.R. 3548) which offset $2 B of unemployment insurance spending, Team Obama’s Statement of Ad. But ministration Policy said: “The Administration supports the fiscally responsible approach to expanding unemployment benefits embodied in the bill.” At the time the unemployment rate was 9.8%, higher than it is now.
2.The President attacked Republicans for opposing deficit-increasing unemployment insurance extensions while supporting deficit-increasing extensions of tax relief. But the President has proposed extending much of that same tax relief without any offset.
3.The President attacked Republicans for opposing extensions of UI benefits, while the Senate Republican Leader has explicitly supported such an extension on Sunday. The actual dispute is instead over whether the costs should be offset.
4.White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs argued the bill should be passed without offsets to avoid legislative delay. But as a reporter’s question suggests below, that delay results from a disagreement between the two parties, and either side could have instantly resolved it by conceding on the offset dispute. The delay is the result of both sides prioritizing the budget offset question over immediate action.

Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel, "Pick up your shovel, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the promised land".
Nearly 75 years ago, Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light a Camel. This is the promised land"!
Today, Obama has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of Camels, and mortgaged the promised land.
It is so disingenious for these Democratic Party people here in Liberty to say don't vote for the party vote for the person. Just two elections ago they spent over a century telling people they should vote straight Democrat because a vote for a Republican (even a local Liberty County one)was a vote to support their policies. Barck Obama has open people's eyes indeed! Voting Republican could easily become a habit now.
If Obama's lip's are moving, socialists are feeling a trill down their leg.
I am a proud American who believes this country is exceptional because of the choices our leaders have made throughout history. Why would I vote for a party or anyone in it that wants to make decisions that ruined other nations throughout history?
Good lawers make a great deal more money than good judges. I want Mr. Hight to have an oportunity to make those big bucks in private practice. This time he will not have his brother in law as the judge and it will give him a chance to cla up the nasty rmors about him as a lawyer and help peope forget the scandalous actions he comitted as a judge. Friends of Rusty Hight should Boot Hight" and give him a new lease on life.
Say what you want about Rusty Hight. Every time I see mark Morefield he s sitting over by himself in a restaraunt. He is a wallflower. Do we really want a dud like that as a judge?
I believe the last person was right on the money. I believe the last person has been paying attentin more than the average person. Judge Hight has been lenient to sex offenders. I can name cases ad give examples myself. Again, I want tothank Ray Akins for not letting these people threaten him and use the courts and the sheriff (Athur) to make up crap to keep him quiet. I am a Republican that is tired of any twisted rationale that wold say we should continue electing people like Hight. I will be sitting in the courtroom when Ray goes to trial and Hight has to realize he can't persecute Ray any further. I bet he waits until after the election, but I will be there. I hope he gets thrown under the ballot bx in November. I have spoke with many in the communtiy that are Republlicans and ndependents and some Independents and they think the same. He is doing nothing but hurting Liberty County. People now know that he helps his buddes and plays politics with our justice system. His little mafiaosagang shouldhave paid attention when theymessed with Ray and what he has done elsewhere. He is till effective and hlping make changes with a similar situation in Missouri. Good luck Ray and enjoy the year 2011 when the justice system will judg what they tried to do to you over the last two years. Outsider jdges will not lok kindly on ex offcials like Greg Arthur, Rusty Hight, and Mike Little. There will not be the phone call or down the hall meetings to gain up on you inthose proceedings.
