By DickNH - 03/06/2012 - 10:21 am How about protecting the "special interest" of the American people to not have their elections bought and paid for by corporate interests? You might want to include in your warrant article a ban on special interest groups like ALEC, funded by the Koch Brothers, writing legislation for NH Tea Party lawmakers that they blindly submit without even thinking through the long-term ramifications? Or would your warrant Log in to vote article only target those "special interests" with whom you disagree? 0 view in original post Nonsense By DickNH - 03/06/2012 - 10:17 am No, Van, it was NOT a great letter. Rather, it was filled with the same nonsense and plain misstatement of fact that we so often see here by opponents of the President. Log in Mr. Obama has no more influence over the price of a commodity in international to vote trade than any other world leader does. The fact is that domestic production is UP. 12 Drilling is UP. But, because oil is traded on a world market, and there is NO mechanism to keep domestically produced oil from being sold on the international market, those facts do not matter to the price of oil. The same is true of the XL pipeline. That crude would be piped to Texas, where it would be sold on the international market to the highest bidder. Accessing that oil would not affect prices of American gasoline one iota, and anyone who understands the international nature of the oil industry knows that.

  • The United States House of Representatives
    THE UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES “Tough but doable” was the way Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Executive Director Howard Wolfson described the Democrats' chances of taking back the House of Representative last Friday. Wolfson had a rough week. Charlie Cook, the respected non-partisan political analyst who is listened to by political reporters, and maybe more importantly, by political PACs, wrote that the math just didn’t seem to be there for the Democrats to pick up the net of six seats they’d need to regain control of the House. During the spring and summer, Cook believed that the Democrats could overcome "the math” with their strength on domestic issues. But, despite a slight edge (48% Democrat- 46% Republican) in the “generic ballot question" (“If the election were held today for Congress, for whom would you vote?”) Democrats haven’t put the issues together in a way to produce the tide it would take to move enough races to produce a Democratic House. Last summer, not only Cook, but top Democrats believed that the Enron, WorldCom and Arthur Anderson scandals, along with the plummeting stock market, had created a climate that could sweep the Democrats back. At one point they even fantasized that all 40 or so competitive races could break their way. But, by August, guns had replaced butter as the overarching national political theme, and the Democrats lost that “mo.” A driving force behind the vote on the Iraq resolution was burning desire by the Democratic leadership to get the focus back on the economy. Indeed, the day after the vote, House Democratic Leader Dick Gephardt and Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle held a high profile economic forum as a signal that the economy was the main concern of Democrats.

    Lantos FOUNDATION Human Rights ro -n & Justice January 12,2012 ^iiU^j^ Anthony Herman > - ^ General Counsel ^ Federal Election Commission 999 E Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20463 Re: Advisory Opinion Request Dear Mr. Herman: Pursuant to 2 U.S.C. §437f(a)(l) and 11 C.F.R. § 112.1, the Lantos Foundation for Human Rights and Justice ("the Lantos Foundation") seeks an advisory opinion. The Lantos Foundation seeks confirmation that under the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended, and its implementing regulations, the Lantos for Congress Committee ('the Committee") may, subject to the limitations set out below, donate the balance of its funds to the Lantos Foundation. Background Origins of the Lantos Foundation Prior to his death in early 2008, Congressman Tom Lantos was the Chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Congressman Lantos was a co-founder of the Congressional Human Rights Caucus, which in 2008 was renamed the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission. During the twenty-seven years when he served in the House of Representatives, Congressman Lantos was the leading congressional proponent of intemational human rights. In the spring of2008, the Lantos Foundation was established by members of Congressman Lantos' family, in concert with his fiiends and supporters, including individuals who had earlier worked for either the campaign Committee or Congressman Lantos' congressional office. The purpose of the Lantos Foundation is to continue the human rights activities that were the Congressman's life work, "to strengthen the role of human rights and justice in U.S. foreign policy and to encourage a stronger role for human rights and justice in all aspects of intemational relations."
