Support Stockman for Senate‏

A timely post about from  www.PeterMorrisonReport.com about the Senate race in Texas. This follows this post about U.S. athletes in the Sochi Olympics.  In the meantime, you can get more involved if you like here and read an interesting book HERE.


Support Stockman for Senate‏


Summary of this report:

Senator John Cornyn is up for re-election in November. Most
observers and pundits expected him to be unopposed in the
Republican primary, but Rep. Steve Stockman has also entered the
race. This has thrown the business as usual GOP establishment into
panic mode. The mainstream media is also coming to John
Cornyn's defense, and they've begun giving Congressman
Stockman the Ted Cruz treatment, attacking him relentlessly.
Don't be fooled by these tactics. While RINOs and the liberal
media both favor John Cornyn, conservatives need to support Steve
Stockman for US Senator.

Full Report:

In a few short weeks, Texans will cast their primary votes for the
US Senate race, and this will be one of the most important
elections in our state's history.  That's because 2014 is
shaping up to be a very important year in politics for both Texas
and the entire country.  Obamacare has now become the law of the
land, and tens of millions of people have been shocked to discover
the devastating impact this socialist abomination is going to have
on their health and their pocketbook, all in the name of helping
the "poor and underprivileged."  In addition, we're
seeing yet another big push for amnesty for millions of illegal
aliens, disguised as "immigration reform."

Who we choose to send to the Senate this fall may well determine
how both these issues play out. John Cornyn is our current Senator
who's up for re-election, but he's being challenged in the
primary by Rep. Steve Stockman.  If conservatives want to have any
chance of repealing Obamacare or stopping amnesty in its tracks, we
need to send John Cornyn packing, and replace him with Rep.
Stockman.  While John Cornyn has a conservative voting record on
some issues, when it comes to illegal immigration and amnesty, he
has been either missing in action or actively working against
conservatives.

Not long ago, newly elected Senator Ted Cruz made a valiant effort
to prevent Obamacare from being funded. Instead of supporting him
in his efforts, John Cornyn opposed him - he actually worked behind
the scenes to encourage other Republican Senators to shut down the
filibuster.  There's simply no excuse for this betrayal.  Ted
Cruz knew that our freedom to make our own choices when it comes to
health care was at stake, and he took a stand to preserve that
freedom.  Instead of fighting for our freedom right beside Ted
Cruz, John Cornyn did everything he could to sabotage his
courageous stand.

As a result of Cornyn's betrayal, America may be stuck with
Obamacare. A lot of people are hoping to see it overturned when a
new Congress comes in, but that's a real long shot.  It's
possible it might happen, but it will be an uphill battle. One
thing's for sure - we won't be able to count on John Cornyn
to take the lead in repealing Obamacare. Texans need two Senators
who are committed to doing everything they can to repeal Obamacare.
If Steve Stockman is elected, he'll stand with Ted Cruz, not
sabotage him.

Illegal immigration is the other looming battle, and it's even
more important than Obamacare.  Make no mistake - when politicians
and the media talk about "immigration reform",
they're talking about amnesty for 15-20 million illegal aliens.
If "immigration reform" passes, Texas will go the way of
California.  It used to be one of the most conservative states in
the country, but thanks to the amnesty of 1986, the largest state
in the country is now a permanent Democrat stronghold. If we have
another amnesty, the millions of newly minted voters could ensure
that Texas becomes majority Democrat in just a few short years.

We're currently seeing a huge push for amnesty. According to
several media reports, John Boehner, Eric Cantor, and other GOP
"leaders" are currently working behind the scenes to
grease the skids for passage of an amnesty bill.  GOP leaders seem
to think their job isn't to represent the conservative voters
who voted for them, but to create millions of new Democrats who
will vote for the likes of Charles Schumer, Barbara Boxer, and
Harry Reid.  To make matters worse, big business groups in Texas
and across the country are pouring tens of millions of dollars into
promoting "mainstream" Republican candidates. To these
groups, conservatives like you and me are called "wackos"
and "extremists". They want Republican politicians who
will roll over on the amnesty issue, because they like the cheap
labor illegal immigration provides.

Another amnesty could be the end of the America we know and love.
It's difficult enough for conservatives to get elected now. Add
millions of new voters that overwhelmingly support liberal policies
and in even more of the country it will become impossible to elect
a conservative leader. It's also no exaggeration to say that
John Cornyn is doing nothing to slow down this massive push for
amnesty, let alone stop it. If the amnesty issue were really
important to him, he would be going all out to stop it. He would be
calling out John Boehner and Eric Cantor and the rest of the go
along to get along Republicans. He would be making speeches and
giving media interviews spelling out exactly what amnesty will mean
for America, and how it could be the death knell of limited
government. Instead, he's silent on the issue.  He's not
about to rock the boat, because liberals might get the idea
he's some sort of "extremist."

That's why the mainstream media loves John Cornyn and are
running attack pieces on Steve Stockman.  They know that while John
Cornyn may give lip service to opposing amnesty and Obamacare, his
heart isn't in these fights.  In the end, they know he can be
counted on not to mount any real opposition to their agenda.
That's also why they hate Steve Stockman - they know he really
means the things he says, and he'll go to the mat for
conservative Texans. Having Steve Stockman and Ted Cruz
representing Texas in the Senate would be every liberal's
nightmare. That's the reason the media is treating Rep.
Stockman the same way they've treated Sheriff Joe Arpaio,
former Congressman Tom Tancredo, and Arizona governor Jan Brewer.
Anyone who is serious about stopping the invasion of America by
illegals is attacked and ridiculed pretty much non-stop, while the
media gives "respectable" conservatives like Cornyn the
kid glove treatment.

For conservative Texans who want to defeat Obamacare and amnesty,
the choice is clear: Steve Stockman for Senator.  Yes, he's an
underdog, but so was Ted Cruz when he announced he was running for
the Senate. Few thought he had any chance of defeating David
Dewhurst, who was the overwhelming favorite. Conservative Texans
had other ideas, though, and we came out in force and turned the
race upside down. We can do it again. In one poll, Texans supported
a generic Tea Party candidate over John Cornyn. Steve Stockman is
that Tea Party candidate, and with our support he can defeat John
Cornyn.

I urge all conservative Texans to support Steve Stockman. If you
can, volunteer to help his campaign, or send him a donation. The
GOP primary is on March 4th, and it may well be our last chance to
roll back Obamacare and defeat amnesty.

Take action:

Contact the Steve Stockman for Senate campaign and offer your help.
He needs both donations and volunteers.  Talk to your friends and
family. Let them know that it's critically important to elect
Steve Stockman if they want to defeat amnesty and roll back
Obamacare.
