Glenn Beck on stage Saturday night at the NRA convention. One of the best speeches I have heard in my life. Part political - part preaching, but all true and dead on message.

Sue Myrick Holds National Press Conference

I wanted you to know that moments ago, we wrapped up a press conference in the Capitol where Sue Myrick and three other House members publicly called on the House Sgt. at Arms, the IRS and the US Justice Department to investigate the non-profit group CAIR - the Counsel on American Islamic Relations for their documented ties to HAMAS and other terrorist organizations. Specifically, Sue unveiled a document (Memo) written by CAIR back in January of 2007 that author and investigative journalist Paul Sperry and his investigative team uncovered. The memo outlines CAIR's plan to infiltrate the House of Representatives offices by placing interns in key offices, namely judiciary, homeland security and intell related offices. The memo is being made public now, as it is part of the book Muslim Mafia that is being released nationwide tomorrow. Paul Sperry wrote the book and Sue wrote the forward to the book. The book is based on uncover research that has yielded thousands of pages of documents linking CAIR to terrorism. The press conference was covered by AP, FOX national, World Net Daily, World News Daily, CBN, CBS, ABC, Reuters, Human Events, Roll Call, The Hill, Bloomberg among others. I will post audio and video as soon as we have it ready.

Photos from Speech to Second Half Strategies / Boatsman Gillmore

Last week, I had the opportunity to hold a mini-town hall with the employees, directors and clients of Second Half Strategies/Boatsman Gillmore here in Charlotte. A great group, very lively, great questions. Mostly talked health care reform, but also discussed the stimulus, tax policies and terrorism. Enjoy the photos.
