Cong. Kevin Brady interviewed at RightOnLine in Dallas

AFP Texas Advisory Chairman interviewed Cong. Kevin Brady.

Brady - "Ben, you are a job creater. Thank you for what you do."

We are so deep in debt and the national deficit is averaging $1 trillion over the nexgt decade. They pick industries they can blame and go after them with higher taxes. They are outsourcing the energy industry. We have new taxes on capital gains, investment, savings. While some Bush tax cuts may be extended, they will focus on taxing people who work hard to creat jobs.

What is the D plan to eliminate or retain the middle class tax cuts? Dems in the House consider much of the middle class to be wealthy and many Americans don't even pay taxes, as you know. If the Bush tax cuts go away, Americans will pay $3,000 more a year.

The TX sales tax exemption is again at risk. It has expired and the D's are using that as an excuse to bring in new tax increases. $1.2 billion/yr for Texans is saved by making the sales tax exemption permanent. (Texans do not have a state income tax and we like it that way, so we should be able to deduct our sales taxes from our federal taxes.)

The current ObamaCare bill is poorly written and eliminates so many people and they took some things out of the bill as a gimmick to balance the bill.

We know there is a fight and we are ready for it.

The interview was live broadcast from the Americans for Prosperity booth at the RPT convention.

Cong. Michael McCaul - we can take this country back

Cong. Michael McCaul, interviewed by Will lutz at the RightOnLine booth at the RPT convention, was asked if Republicans learned why they lost two years ago. Are we ready to take over?

We definitely are ready to take over - the Party had experienced "Bush Fatigue" but now we have a common enemy and a common goal -- to defeat Obama, Pelosi and Reid.

I don't take earmarks -- the system is broken and corrupt. We must stand by our principles -- cut spending, cut taxes, stop czars, securing the border and defeating the real enemy - radical Islam.

Fundamentally, the majority of spending goes to entitlements - we need entitlement reform so we aren't spending so much of your money. This Pres has spent more money than all other presidents combined -- our debt is such that we won't leave a better America to our children who will owe that $14 trillion debt. If you earned $1 million a day from the day Christ was born, you would not have $14 trillion.

We can take this country back. I am working hard to make sure we take back Congress and get Nancy Pelosi out of the Chair.

The border is a dangerous issue - other than Mexical crossingss, many other ethnicities are crossing the border.

AmericaIsSpeakingOut.com - we want to hear from the American people, said McCaul, and tell us what is most important to you. The Washington agenda should be driven by the American people.

www.LoneStarReport.org will have the videos archived.

Will Lutz interviews Mrs. Tincy Miller, Texas SBOE

Texas' elected State Board of Education member Tincy Miller is being interviewed by Lone Star Report's Will Lutz.

Will Lutz can you dispell some misperceptions:

Thomas Jeffersonis listed at least 25 times in our curriculum. The debate is whether or not Thomas Jefferson was in world history -- he is in because he was influenced by some of the great thinkers...

Indoctrination is always something SBOE members are accused of - Miller said the SBOE works to influence that this country was formed onn religious principles but they came to the US because of religious persecution and that freedom of religion is what we are encouraging be discussed in the classroom.

"We focused on accuracy and balance so students have the facts." - Mrs. Miller

Bill Ames played a significant role in making sure the good things about America are included in the curriculum. Mrs. Miller said Bill had pointed out to her that "The Battle of Normandy was a failed event" and other inaccuracies in the textbooks. Bill set down with publishers and Bill conveyed the mistakes and the misperceptions in the textbooks. The publishers made some changes. Mrs. Miller asked Bill to be part of the team proposing the curriculum.

Textbooks in electronic form -- the review process is the controoversial aspect of electronic textbooks. the Textbook funds should not be sued for laptops - that the laptop is not a book, but is a device. They slipped in that a Kindle or an open source could be used as a texboook, bypassing the State Board of Education and it be on a list for state dollars to be used to buy it. Bias could be written into these new technology and the digital world should not bypass the SBOE (parents, teachers and public review) of textbooks and content.

The Permanent School Fund, created by our forefathers in 1876 dedicated to the children of TX for books. It is in the Constitution and the SBOE is the sole body overseeing the fund. It has been well managed and build to a $22 billion fund, generating $700 million year. Legisaltors look at the fund as a "dipping pool" to use those dollars for other purposes, even to balance the budget...

These dollars are protected by the SBOE and for the schoolchildren of Texas. WE have a strong reading program and textbooks - the strongest in the country. Miller is a reading expert for kids with dislexia and she is a leader helping students.

The leegislature needs to appropriate the money (out of the dedicated fund, not tax dollars) but the legisalture needs to release those funds to make sure our students get their books.

Generations of children have benefitted from the SBOE.

Lt Gov Dewhurst is interviewed at ROL booth at RPT

Lt. Gov David Dewhurst is interviewed by Ben Streusand


Upcoming session, we will have a blanced budget without raising taxes, and we have redistricting -- we have a busy session upcoming.

We have transportation, public education and higher education challengs. Washington -- ObamaCare, spending, offshore mratorium on drilling, this Administration does not respect states rights.

We will absolutely balance the budget without raising taxes, we did it in 2003 and we were told we had a $5 billion deficit which was actually $10 billion deficit. I came in Jan 2003 and we had that large deficit, no savings.

Fast forward, in 2007, we saved the surplus so last year we were one of 6 states in the Black instead of other states in the red. That is critical as our bond ratings are good and we don't want our credit rating to go down. We must hold onto $4-5 billion or 5% of our budget. Last year, in the middle of a terrible recession, only 2 states whose credit ratings improved -- North Dakota and TEXAS with 25 million people.

In last 10 years, only one state that created net new jobs -- TEXAS.

We need to use some of the rainy day funds to fill the budget gap, we have a umber of sources of revenue, last year we made a decision not to touch the rainy day fund - it will grow to $10.2- $10.7 billing. Just asked the Gov and Speaker to sign on a measure to tighten our belts to the tune of $9 billion. We must make sure we save for the coming years.

We need to save for 2013.

Is leadership trying to make sure fed dollars don't have strings attached? Yes, ObamaCare does not improve health outcomes, we have measures, ideas, proposals -- two blockbuster bills were introduced last year to pay doctors more and pay for outcomes, but ObamaCare doesn't do that. It adds 2 million people to the state roles. ObamaCare will cost TX $27 BILLION TX dollars! That will cut into public ed, higher ed, buildling roads -- that is not right, said Dewhurst.

Voter ID? The Senate passed the bill last session. Americans have shed blood to protect the sanctity of our votes -- you can't check out a library book without a photo ID. We must protect the sanctity of our votes.

Does the Republican party need to change and elect more conservative candidates who stand for the principles? The Tea Paries, made of Ds and Rs has energized the voters.

The growth in our state budget has been under population and inflation growth. I have comfort that legislators will do the right thing.

Dewhurst said we must repeal and replace ObamaCare in each and very state. We must collect signatures for RevereAmerica -- sign up and remind the Administration we don't like this. Sign the petition at the Dewhurst booth - or to go DavidDewhurst.com.

Michelle Malkin speaking at RightOnLine in Pittsburg

Americans for Prosperity Foundation's RightOnLine conference, Michelle Malkin speaks. She has the No 1 Bestseller - hit the bestseller list in 9 days.

Joined the BrooksBrothersClad EvilMongers...promises not to take calls on her IPhone while speaking.

Last year at RightOnLine in Austin, TX, we were fighting off attacks from Wesley Clark for our exposing Obama's mythis of hope and change. The NutRoots gathered a stone's throw away from here is waging war on all the watchdogs left in Washingotn and attempting to redefine citizen dissent as hatred. Our work is is rooted in liberty and prosperity for all.

they have unlimited rousources to do it - with our tax dolalrs. But they have killed hope and change, that is the inconvenient truth.

Legions of voters for Obama were duped. This comes from the NYT website comments IS OBAMA PUNKING US? Welcome to the Right Wing Freak Club.

Michelle wenton The View and has the clip on HotAir on how ill armed andill prepared Joy was in response to the book. You know you won the argument if they are quibbling on how corruptObama is and not whether.

As government grows, corruption flows. Massive new fed spending and thousands of pages of new regulationsno one has read provide opportuniities for sleaze and influence-peddling. Not even Obama can drain a swamp by flooding it.

The tea party movment has been declared dead, but newcomers to politics have taken to the streets since February and their numbers continue to grow. They wanted you gone - silenced and out of signt - marginalized, demonized, but you have shown the spine and reslience missing from so many leaders in Washington.

YOU have siezed control over the domestic policy debate in this country. Don't worry about tallying how many are at the NutRoots conference - is the White House worrying about them or YOU? You have siezed control. You have gained the upper hand - you are holding Democrats and Republicans accountable.

On the WH healthcare takeover plan, you have Congressional leaders hiding in SIEU offices, taking sanctuary in children's hospitals, phoning it in rather than facing their constituents, charging $25 to attend townhalls, bringing in fake doctors, pimping Organizing for American stooges -- but we are astroturfed? ha!

Podcasters, bloggers, and online activists are invaluable. That this was from the top down is laughable. The leadership only wishes they could be as competent and insightful. The Soros funded folks didn't envision the invisible hand in the marketplace. It is a miracle we all have this shared experience and shared passion. We are so under threat by this White House - we are across the country, living our lives, raising our kids, wanting to ensure liberty for future generations. WE get up again and again. We are happy warriors.

We have been told to "rebrand" ourselves. We've been told we aren't using the Internet enough - but your videos on YouTube are playing all over cable TV all day every day now. The rise in taxpayer convergency that newspapers refus=e to review conservative books.

Watching the success of the book - seeing people practice knowledge is power and sunlight is the best disinfectant.

Spent an entire career -- 17 years -- watch those on both sides of the aisle to "tone it down" (like you) to conduct ourselves docily. We cannot afford moderation. We have nothing to apologize for - ever.

(standing ovation and cheers - a real crowd pleaser, Michelle struck a cord with these online activists!!!)

PoliticsDaily.com's Lewis speaks at RightOnLine

Politics Daily.com's Matt Lewis

said the audience was not 21st Century Online Community Organizers.

conservatives have bene demoralized by the Left but that is changeing. Those at NetRootsNation they are terrified by us...we are now talk radio, the blogs, we are kicking their buts. They will ratchet things up - it will get interesting. But we can turn things around in 2009 and 2010.

Communists teach that demoralizing and mocking opponents is part of their agenda. Bloggers are effective because we don't live in Washington, D.C.

He encouraged bloggers to get the tools, always learn more - go to connferences, read books. get phones that allow us to Tweet, get networked with other bloggers, take photos from our cameras...get the tools and stay plugged in.

Stay principled. The Bush Administration coopted many so-called conservatives. don't become part of the system. Remain an inddpendent voice that shoots straight with the American people.

Get the facts. Don't be sloppy. We keep the mainstream media honest - bloggers often fact check. stay aggressive and be on the offense. Thanks to AFP, to you for being here - keep up the fight.

Radio Talk Show Host Glen Meakem addresses RightOnLine

Glen Meakem referred to to the individual who asked Sen. Specter about the specific page in the healthcare bill about the end of life counseling.

Specter who said he would have voted for the bill said he could NOT vote for end of life counseling. He was put on the record.

Imagine our relatives having to go to mandatory end of life counseling with a bureaucrat every 5 years...not private. That's 55,000 sessions a day - how many bureaucrats would be needed to hold those sessions? It would be a paper-chase, and an incredible violation of our privacy.

the man at that townhall put a new focus on this aspect of the bill. Now they crawled all over each other, because one mantook the time to read the bill even when elected officials siad they didn't have time to read the bill.

We must insist that all bills be posted online for all to see - the result will be shorter, fewer bills, fewer Earmarks and the result will e better public policy.

Aug 6, just over a week ago, Obama spoke to his followers in VA, he said they had work to do. I don't want the folks to do a lot of talking...we need them out of the way so we can "clean up the mess."

So he thinks Americans created the mess? No - the Community Reinvestment Act backed by a cadre of liberals and socialists. And it is our right "to petition the government for grievances" and it is the President's responsiblitiy to take into account All Americans' concerns.

Obama said "no Earmarks" - then 8,000; then he said he doesn't support a single-payer health care system, then he claims now he didn't say that and this isn't a single payer plan. Obama doesn't know where the truth ends and lies begin. (could it be when he opens his mouth?)

Courage, candor, competence are neede for leadership in the heat of battle. We need leaders of positive leaders - does Obama have character? competence? (the crowd said "NO!!!")

we must take Aerica back, Meakem said.

Erick Erickson, RedState.com addresses RightOnLine

Erick Erickson is speaking now at AFP Foundation's RightOnLine conference in Pittsburg, PA.

Obama ishelping create jobs for gravediggers.

Get to know the people in our movement - we are in this together and it is a fight. together we can and will win.

The Left is organizing boycots against Glenn Beck and if they succeed, they will be embolden to go after others. They call us Astroturfers - they are funded and bused in by Unions are the "real activists" according to the Media, Congress, Obama.

But the majority of the country is with us...we are CHANGE, not Obama. We can change the country again.

After the tea parties, we need a coup - of the political parties. How many of you then after the tea parties became a precinct chairman? Many precincts have NO pct chairmen. If you take over the precincts, then the counties, then the states, then the national parties - they promise home and change. If the Republicans get swept into office, it will not be because they did things right, but because the otherr side LOST. Take them back - become the local political party. We have two good parties int his coutry, take them over - then we take back Washington and we keep it.

WSJ"s John Fund addresses RightOnLine

Now, John Fund is speaking at RightOnLine. He said he'd also been visiting the liberal NetRootsNation conference across the river here in Pittsburg.

There is one major difference, he said -- the mood at RightOnLine is much more optimistic.

Liberals know they may lose between 50-60 House seats, and if 60 is hit - Nancy Pelosi becomes MINORITY leader.

Liberals camapain as moderates, but govern as liberals -- they always move Left. As Ronald Reagan said, when those in office govern from the Left, they lose. They have now lost touch, and the American people are revolting.

Remember what Carter brought us -- in 1980, Ronald Reagan was able to come back: a recesssion is when your neighbor loses his job, a depression is when you lose your job, and a recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his job.

Now, John Fund predicts that conservatives will win mid-term elections.

This year, he said Obama co-opted all the health care providers -- insurance companies, AMA, etc. They have a seat at the table -- but they are there to BE LUNCH!

Americans are the people who have risen up and stopped the healthcare plan so far -- real Americans are given voice and have the opportunity to stop ObamaCare. Citizens are the new leaders who can and will bring about change.

in 1997, in 1993, and now - Americans can stop the march to bigger government in its track. We have the chance to defend the country and can turn to our children and grandchildren to say "we were a new great generation - we stopped Big Government in its tracks."

what a gift for future generations!

Joe the Plumber at RightOnLine in Pittsburg

Joe Wurzelbacher (Joe the Plumber)is speaking now at the AFP Foundation RightOnLine Conference in Pittsburg. He is a voice of the patriotic, conservative American who wants our country back on track. He wants accountability, responsibility, education and the Constitution.

Hold our elected officials accountable. We are held accountable by our clients and our boses -- while government is spending billions - now trillions -- and we have the responsibility to hold them accountable.

Education is a parent's job, not government's.

The Constitution is black and white - not a "living document" subject to interpretation.

Radical Leftists are infiltrating RightOnLine

Lee Fang is a 22 year-old political hack paid to attack conservatives. The sources of his funding has been reported to be George Soros. He has no credible political or policy credentials.

He has registered for the conservative RightOnLine conference being held now in Pittsburg opposite the ultra-liberal DailyKos, NetrootsNation conference.

His ONLY job is to attack mainstream Americans and conservative public policies. http://www.verumserum.com/?p=7649

These liberal political operatives are insignificant except when the mainstream media gives them the credibility they haven't earned, but have like cockroaches, turned up to spread crap. They are political losers, and part of the Left's war machine competing with mainstream Americans.

Pathatic bantering

BurntOrange – a liberal website fronted by left-wingers – posted a piece on one of the speakers at the Americans for Prosperity Foundation-Texas DEFENDING THE AMERICAN DREAM Summit this past weekend in Austin.

AFP Foundation is non-partisan (unlike Nutroots Nation’s gathering which was sponsored by moveon.org and the Democratic National Committee) and the RightOnline premier event had Republicans, Democrats and Libertarians gathering to discuss how to use new media more effectively to move issues we care about -- taxpayer protections among them.

Some of the lefties posting comments clearly didn’t read the article, nor did they “get it” that we were hosting a state conference, not a national convention. And we had 20 organizations playing a role in RightOnline and the Defending the American Dream Summit.

We were pleased to have the Hon. Ron Wilson speak. What appears to have really angered the liberal status-quo was that Wilson dared to venture into the school choice policy issue and advocate for policies which help the minority community students out of failing inner-city schools.

It is clear that on the Left, there is no room for discussion or an open mind. Not when the educrats constitute their largest voting block. So much for diversity.

Oh, did I mention that the Lone Star Times gets more media hits than BurntOrange?
