While a lot of the political focus has been on the health care fiasco in Washington and the extortion of our tax dollars with M66/67 in Oregon, there are a couple of local races that need to grab our attention. We have a chance to get some fiscal responsibility back into Clackamas County by replacing the crew of Democrats now running our County with some conservative Republicans. The candidates for Clackamas County Commissioner will be facing off at a forum in Eagle Creek this Thursday, Aprill 8. The meeting begins at 7 p.m.

I think it is time that George Taylor is reinstated as Oregon's climatologist. I was so proud of OSU for having a real scientist who was willing to question global warming. It said to me, "This is a University that really believes in science and research". But, then, equally disappointed and discouraged when they bent to the political pressures of the left and pulled him from his position. Now that the truth is beginning to surface, I think that OSU needs to reinstate him and reclaim their name as a science university, willing to follow the truth, even if it leads to unpopulist results. 

Now, I'm not a Facebook buddy, friend, or whatever they are called these days, but I just might have to get on board. Jim Needham's Facbook survey has not only gotten the attention of Clackamas County voters, but also Clackamas County government. I guess they don't like folks being given the opportunity to critique their performance. As reported in the Portland Tribune article Will the real Clackamas County Facebook page step forward?, the County may not have liked him giving a choice of "deplorable" as one of the survey options.

I think it's time for a new Secretary of State. Governmental bodies all over Oregon are stepping over the line when it comes to campaign finance laws, and we saw it again with Measures 66 & 67. It's time that Kate Brown starts doing her job, or she should be exposed for not upholding the integrity of our votes.

Thank you to all the Clackamas County PCP’s! Tuesday’s results were grim, but Kurt Schrader and other representatives of this County need to take notice. Clackamas County stands out strongly for fiscal responsibility.

Now, after Brown's victory in Massachusetts, a state with deeper Democrat pockets than in Oregon, will someone please call on some of our well established and respected present and past Republican Legislators and say, "Yes You Can!" Let's start naming a few: Larry George would be my first choice. Wyden has absolutely betrayed his constituents. He rode into office on the backs of seniors and with his health care bill vote out of committee and then on the floor he has stabbed them in the backs. Not only should every Republican and non-afiliated fiscal conservative be ready to hold him accountable,so should every senior, D, R, and I.
