Sunday Morning Talk Show Thread 26 May 2002

"We're watching a DVD now."

Which one?

Bob Graham of Florida complained that even though they had the same information it wasn't presented to them like the President, all on one sheet of paper... Ah... poor babies!

Which DVD? Oceans 11

Yuk... I can't stand Julia Roberts...

BTTT. Daschle's got to go...

Hoefling U.S. Senate P.O. Box 146 - Viborg, SD 57070 HoeflingUSSenate@aol.com

To my fellow South Dakotans and other concerned Americans,

The United States of America is the greatest nation in the world. That greatness springs from the principles that founded our republic more than 200 years ago, stated so well by Thomas Jefferson in 1776:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." - The Declaration of Independence

Defending the life, liberty and private property of our citizens--that is the primary purpose of our government.

The Constitution of the United States was written and enacted to clearly and unmistakably spell out what the duties and responsibilities of the federal government are, as well as clearly defining its limits--The enumerated powers describe those limits in words that any citizen can understand.

But for too many years now, liberal politicians in Washington, D.C. have willfully ignored or twisted these basic truths--By allowing and promoting the practice of abortion--By passing laws that clearly infringe on the liberties contained in the Bill of Rights--By undertaking national control of education, health care, and a myriad of tasks best left to local control or private enterprise--By enacting a tax code that is invasive, counterproductive and unfair--And by regularly ignoring the Tenth Amendment:

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

These elected officials--currently led by Tom Daschle and the Daschle Democrats--have, in my opinion, forfeited their right to lead. They have abrogated the oath they took upon entering office to uphold and defend the Constitution. And so now the time has come to remove them from power through the means provided for in our founding documents--Elections.

That is why I have decided to challenge Senator Daschle in 2004.

I am completely dedicated to the principles of life and liberty-And I am ready, willing and able to defend them on any platform in America; and, Lord willing, in the United States Senate.

Regards, Tom Hoefling

About Tom Hoefling

Tom Hoefling is a long-time national conservative activist and former Republican Party official. In 2000 he was the National Political Director for Alan Keyes, and is the former President of the American Conservative Coalition.

He has been at the forefront on cutting edge conservative issues, such as proposing plans to replace the federal income tax. He is dedicated to teaching young people about their political heritage as Americans, as well as urging all Americans to fulfill their civic duties.

Tom has been a publisher and a Main Street merchant--so he has a real understanding of what the small-businessmen and women of South Dakota are experiencing--but he spent many of his younger years on the factory floor--he can easily relate to those who work for a paycheck.

They live on an acreage near Viborg, South Dakota.

WORTH REPEATING for the millions of Americans who accidentally saw TD on Meet the Press or C-Span today. If a Florida ping would be appropriate, please advise. FV

Here's a link re: The Daschles' tax return and wife Linda's conflicts of interest. Mr. Russert had no questions for TD this morning regarding not releasing their tax return. Please share this with your friends.

>>Yuk... I can't stand Julia Roberts

What can I say? The choice was Dashle or the movie.

Last week on News Watch, Eric Burns said that Cohen would be working on another network. So I guess he will probably be showing up on CNN or MSNBC. That is where he will feel at home, along with all the other liberals.

I have watched Russert for years and he does try to be somewhat evenhanded in his grilling. He did hit Tommy with some good follow-up questions. Sometimes though he tends to gush and show his liberal tendencies with certain guest, especially the Broders, Goodwins, the chattering class of the world. It would be very interesting to see Hillary on with him 1-on-1 as a presidental candidate someday (and not hiding behind Chuckie Schumer and the 9/11 tragedy). How would he handle her and what direction would he take (billing records? pardons? Bill's indiscretions, etc). I think it is actually important for freepers to watch MTP and other Sunday shows to keep an eye on the potential propaganda that comes out. As much as Sam and Cokie sometimes make me want to vomit, it can be instructive to hear the line of questioning and commentary as they lay the groundwork for the liberal spin. Hang in there.
