Thank You Nancy ...

Another reason MMX FLEX is targeting 50 "Must Go" Congressmen:

 

Spotlight on Georgia's 2nd District

Sanford Bishop:  The Georgia Lap Dog

Georgia’s 2nd District is “represented” by “Must Go” Congressman Sanford Bishop, a 9-term self-identified conservative Democrat and member of the "Blue Dog" Coalition.  Georgians may love their Bulldogs and even put up with an occasional Blue Dog...but that affection does not transfer to lap dogs ... especially lap dogs (like Bishop) who voted for the radical Obama and Pelosi agenda. 

Bishop voted party-line for the Stimulus, Cap-and-Trade, and Obamacare!  According to the Washington Post, Bishop voted with the majority of his Democratic colleagues a whopping 97.7 percent of the time.  The number of congressmen with a more liberal record can be counted on one hand.  Oh yeah, and don't count Massachusetts Rep. Barney Frank ... he actually has a more conservative voting record than Bishop! 

So how can anyone believe Bishop when he says: 
"My vote doesn't belong to Nancy Pelosi and it doesn't belong to Barack Obama. It belongs to the people in the 2nd District of Georgia."

Merle Black, a political science professor at Atlanta's Emory University, said a final vote on health care would be a defining moment for Bishop if he backed a plan with Obama's criteria in it - "He'll basically be seen as an Obama liberal in that district. This could be the most crucial vote he casts."

We shall see in November … Let’s hope that the voters in GA-2nd ignore Bishop’s rhetoric this time and hold him accountable for his voting record. 

Georgia State Representative Mike Keown is challenging Bishop.  Mike is a former mayor of Coolidge and currently serves as the vice chairman of the Special Rules committee in the Georgia House. He also serves on the Education, Health and Human Services, and Natural Resources and Environmental committees.  Please visit his website to learn more about him (he rides a motorcycle, drives a dirt track race car on Saturday nights, has a permit to carry a concealed weapon ....)  

This race should be fiercely competitive throughout the year … Stay tuned.

Spotlight on North Carolina's 2nd District

BROKEN RECORD in North Carolina !!!  
Unfortunately, this record has nothing to do with the Tarheels
The NC unemployment rate jumped to a record 11.2%.

Bob Etheridge (NC-2nd) gets our vote as MVP for this record-breaking performance.  You see, Bob voted for more debt (stimulus), higher energy prices (cap & trade) and increased health care costs (obamacare).  Unfortunately for Bob, his constituents are not very enthused about his MVP award.  Remember, nearly half of them voted for McCain a short while ago.

Bob is another politician who says he is a pro-business Democrat. However, voting for cap & trade legislation is anti-business.  It causes energy rationing, leading to higher prices and ultimately fewer jobs in North Carolina.  According to the Heritage Foundation, GDP loss from cap and trade alone would be $161 billion in 2020, which means a loss of $1,870 per household per year. Under that scenario, the average monthly energy bill for a North Carolina family would double.  Barack Obama even agrees: “Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates ‘would necessarily skyrocket’ .. they (energy providers) would have to retrofit their operations.  That will cost money.  They will pass that money on to consumers.”

Somebody needs to remind Bob that these consumers are also his constituents and that there is absolutely nothing “pro-business” about taking $1,870 from each of their households per year.

MMX FLEX reports that four candidates, Jay Johnson, Dan MansellFrank Deatrich and Renee Elmers, will face off in the May 4th GOP primary for the opportunity to challenge Bob Etheridge, the 50 "Must Go" Congressman.  We have not endorsed any candidate at this time.
