ABC News continues its policy of just reporting the facts without any bias or agenda.Remember, ABC News was the venue for President Obama’s highly publicized and unchallenged “Health Care Town Hall” that many decried as propaganda. This was right after former ABC News reporter Linda Douglass was named the Director of Communications for the White House Office of Health Reform.

Pete Stark takes questions at a town hall meeting and is asked about constitutional limitations on the power of government. His answer, while somewhat startling, because he openly admits it, is not really surprising. It shows just how far we have gotten away from our Constitutional government and how critical it is to get back to it before we become subjects instead of citizens. It is a sad state but both political parties share the blame equally. The problem for us is that the people most responsible for the loss of our Constitutional form of government are unelected judges who are legislating from the bench and bypassing the Constitutional legislative process. We can vote against politicians and replace them but we cannot get rid of the judges who are remaking the USA into their own image. And I thought that was BHO’s mission.

The Obama Administration Awarded Hundreds of Thousands in Airport Grants to Stupak’s District Two Days Before Vote.  Was this Yet Another Backroom Deal to Force Obama’s Bill Down the American People’s Throats?

Three airports in the district of infamous fence-sitting and ultimately kowtowing Democrat Bart Stupak were awarded $726,409 in grants by the Obama Administration just two days before a vote on Obama and Pelosi’s government takeover of healthcare.

Did Stupak compromise his supposed principled stand against taxpayer funding of abortion in exchange for taxpayer dollars for pet projects?

Alpena County Regional Airport received a $85,500 grant, but had only 7,519 passenger boardings in 2008 (the most recent year for which there is information) according to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) data. Alpena County Regional Airport serves fewer passengers than even the late Rep. John Murtha’s famous “Airport for Nobody.”

Delta County Airport has even less customers than that, but still received a $179,209 grant.

Chippewa County International Airport received a $461,700 grant,  but had only 13,733  passenger boardings in 2008.

Will Stupak come clean about this apparent backroom deal for his vote?

Call Stupak’s district office at (989) 356-0690 and ask.

Haley Barbour regarding Sunday’s vote in the U.S. House of Representatives on health care reform legislation:
 
  “I hope this health care plan covers hearing aids, because it’s clear Democrats who voted for it have not heard the majority of Americans who didn’t want government-controlled health care crammed down their throats.
 
  “States cannot sustain another massive unfunded mandate, senior citizens are threatened by enormous cuts to Medicare, and American taxpayers and businesses can’t afford huge tax increases in the midst of the worst economic slump since the Great Depression.
 
   “It’s truly sad that Rep. Bart Stupak sold out Pro-Life ideals by settling on an executive order that purports to make sure no federal funds in this healthcare plan are used to pay for abortions. Stupak and his on-the-fence colleagues have entrusted the lives of the unborn to the man who, as a senator, had a record of voting with the National Abortion Rights Action League 100 percent of the time.
