We the People: Wide Awake
Congressman Chris Lee Comments on President Obama's State of the Union Address
"I appreciated President Obama coming to the Capitol this evening to address Congress and the American people on the vast number of issues facing our great nation. Unfortunately, one year removed from the President's historic inauguration, we still face an economy in peril, 10 percent unemployment and a skyrocketing national debt. Coupled with the Christmas terror attack and ongoing challenges overseas, this time calls for leadership and bipartisanship to craft meaningful solutions to the issues facing our nation.
McCotter Denounces Execution of Iranian Freedom Fighters
"The barbarous Iranian regime is butchering innocents for seeking freedom. Per his words last night, I urge the President to lead all free and civilized nations in denouncing these state sponsored murders of freedom seekers and immediately press for maximum sanctions on this evil regime."
Republicans' "Hip Gap"
It permeates the public's consciousness and Big Media obsessively promotes the perception to our detriment. Yet, like a canker on a suitor, polite Republicans won't discuss it. No longer, however, can we pretend the issue doesn't exist. It does and, though painful to admit, we must confront the truth.
Republicans have a "hip gap."
This is not to say Democrats are hip. People who squander their precious breaths of life poring over Das Kapital, practicing rhythmic chanting with Kindergarten lyrics, chaining themselves to national monuments and/or writing memoirs prior to accomplishing anything are utter stiffs. They can only pass themselves off as cool in comparison to...well, us.
TKACIK & McCOTTER: Google in the coal mine
China's cyber-attacks on Google these past several weeks were, sadly, mere replays of state-sponsored Chinese attacks on literally thousands of other American and foreign companies, human rights groups, individuals and, yes, even the U.S. government, including Congress.

Cantor: Terrorists Should Not Be Afforded the Rights of U.S. Citizens
House Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) today issued the following statement in response to reports that the Obama Administration was negotiating and agreeing to potential plea bargains with Umar Farouk Abdul Mattallab, the terrorist who tried to blow up a Detroit-bound plane on Christmas Day:
"Many Americans are incensed to see that the Administration is treating Umar Abdul Mattallab as a common criminal with the rights of a U.S. citizen, including the right to remain silent, a lawyer at taxpayer expense and a civil trial, rather than an enemy combatant who committed an act of war. The Administration's treatment could afford a murderous terrorist the opportunity to negotiate a plea bargain and a lesser punishment - and that is not acceptable.

Democrats' Year End Review
Legislators' FYI:
Democrats' Year End Review
In this giving season, let's see what the Obama Administration and Congressional Democrats have voted to stuff in Americans' stockings in 2009:
1. Americans got higher unemployment, taxes and deficits[1];
2. Seniors got half a trillion dollars in Medicare cuts[2];
3. Terrorists got new rights, trials and cells on American soil; and[3]
4. Government bureaucrats got raises[4].
Thus, Americans can but conclude:
"Democrats: too costly, too crazy, too quickly!"
