The Real Issues with Newt
Newt is hyping himself, with some considerable help from media types as THE "not-Romney" deserving of the nomination. Yesterday a story broke about his ex-wife coming forward, telling among other things, how Newt wanted an "open marriage." Titilating to be sure, but as a number of critics point out, there are no perfect people much less candidates, and does this story really have anything to say about Newt's qualifications for office? The good news for me is that I do not have to get down in the dirt, engage in the "he said/she said" stuff. There are plenty of reasons to oppose the candidacy of Newt.
PRESIDENT OBAMA’S DECISION TO REJECT THE KEYSTONE PIPELINE PROJECT IS A REJECTION OF GOOD PAYING JOBS
In an effort to appease political supporters during an election year, President Obama has effectively turned his back on our economy and has decided to ignore the potential to create more than 100,000 American jobs. You can’t be pro-jobs and anti-pipeline. You can’t be pro-energy independence and anti-pipeline. It’s a real shame this Administration has decided to reject jobs and growth in order to avoid what they perceive to be a thorny political issue. This project has received wide support from both sides of the aisle - including major Labor Unions. Now, as Canada begins to explore other export markets, such as China, I strongly urge President Obama to reconsider delaying his decision before it is too late.
