Felipe Calderón: Just go home hombre’
May 20, 2010Rita Meyer: Governor or beached bass?
May 20, 2010Rita Meyer recently changed her stance on Obamacare. Originally she stated that Freudenthal is doing the right thing by not joining other states in a lawsuit against the federal health-care mandate.
In the recent weeks we have seen, Colin Simpson and Matt Mead, possible early picks for Governor by the Democrats, Rita Meyer may also be following the same path.
Agreeing with Governor Freudenthal, Meyer stated:
“the Governor has taken a very measured approach, I think it’s the right approach, It’s the approach I would take”
The Flip-Flop…

Possibly in a move to be politically expedient Meyer said she would:
“Direct the state attorney to join in the fight”.

For the record this isn’t the first time Rita Meyer changed her mind, she originally stated to an audience the following–
“The Wyoming National Guard could be used to protect state residents from “inevitable federal abuse.”
The very next day, Meyer retracted her original statement, saying – “it would be an inappropriate use of the National Guard”.
Many individuals believe since we see both Congress and the current administration in a full-fledged power grab, it certainly doesn’t help Myers to continually change on her positions.
Putting Myers even further behind are statements like this where Meyer said – “the federal government has a role in feeding school children”, this could be where she has a hard time with state rights issues, since her definition of the proper role of government is mixed.
Bringing us to this question, can a candidate truly take to heart a fight against federal intrusion on issues such as health-care, and at the same time rally for a “free lunch” from the same federal government?
At this point in the game it appears that Meyer, no matter what the issue or how she answers, it must be checked at a later date to see if she has “changed her mind”.
This could make Rita Meyer untrustworthy in the eyes of many conservative voters.
Eric Holder remains quiet over brutality by Detroit police
May 20, 2010Attorney General Eric holder was in Detroit for a ground breaking ceremony for a civil rights center at Wayne State University.
Ironically Holder, widely critical about the treatment of Terrorists isn’t saying a word about the killing of a seven year old girl that was needlessly shot by the police during a raid.
The little girl was sleeping at the time the police broke down the door and came in shooting. The girl, Aiyana Jones was hit in the head and neck and later died at the Hospital.
A&E had been shadowing the Detroit Police filming TV footage when the raid went bad. According to an AP report – Geoffrey Fieger the family’s Attorney said “the video shows an officer lobbing the [flash] grenade and then shooting into the home from the porch”.
Sadly Eric Holder, America’s top law enforcement officer declined to comment on the matter.
For my part, I’d like to know what else was in that room that the Officer shot into. Bad things do happen but most Police know when, as well as when not to use deadly force.
Colin Simpson’s campaign manager speaks out
May 20, 2010In a recent letter to the editor of the Wyoming Tribune, Joe Milczewski manager for the Simpson campaign has come out against the notion that the Democrats have their pick in Colin Simpson.
Unfortunately he neglects the fact that the Chairman of the Democratic Party Gwen Hamilton, virtually endorsed Colin Simpson on the Simpson’s own campaign web-site.
Simpson’s campaign manager defended the actions of the Democratic Chairman by calling them “Reagan Democrats”. While probably wise to thank them for their support, this spin actually reaffirms the intent of Simpson to pander for votes.
Being the Speaker of the House, Simpson has been relatively quiet during the recent uproar in support of blocking Obama Care in Wyoming. Since there was a mandate from the Democrat Party to block the Healthcare Freedom legislation these actions from the Simpson Campaign could be a defining moment in his run for governor.
Hearing all this talk about these “Blue Dogs” and “Reagan Democrats” here in Wyoming mirrors the tactics used by the Democrats during the healthcare debacle in Washington, to hear the same rhetoric from a “Republican” Gubernatorial candidate may not go over too well with conservative voters.
Simpson’s campaign manager goes on to suggest that “Simpson unites people”. I believe we heard the same exact thing during the Obama campaign, and we all know how that’s how that working out?
More political blather about being conservative could only weaken Simpsons defense, Since Wyoming’s government has grown to record size under his leadership.
Just “politics as usual” and recycled rhetoric coming out of Simpson’s campaign, is that what we can expect from Simpson as the Governor of Wyoming?
