Remembering 9-11 – 2001-2011–Never Forget!

911 Tribute – Music by Christian band the Fray

We remember all those who died that day as victims to the atrocious acts of a few evil men.

We remember all the hero's that day, the fire fighters and policemen, those that lived and died trying to rescue people.

And, we remember all those who lost their love ones that day. May God comfort them all!

We hope that no one politicizes this day for their own political agendas because this is a day for memorial, reflecting and paying our respect.

Also, finally remember NEVER let our government take away our essential liberties to protect our safety.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. ~ Ben Franklin

Open Letter to Rick Perry on his Progressive Record

Governor Perry, let me be clear: It is not that you supported Al Gore that worries us.

It is that you supported Hillary Clinton's health care plan.

You pushed for federal bailout and stimulus funds.

You support welfare for illegal immigrants.

You tried to forcibly vaccinate 12-year-old girls against sexually transmitted diseases by executive order.

You raised taxes twice.

And, state debt has more than doubled in your tenure as governor, pushing Texas to the brink of our constitutional debt limit.

It's that you supported ALL of these bad ideas that are inconsistent with how most Republicans understand conservatism, yet you now try to swagger your way into the Tea Party.

Governor Perry, with all due respect, you have used great rhetoric. But you will have to answer to the voters of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and across the country as to why that rhetoric does not match your record.

~ Congressman Ron Paul
