Two videos at link. In Maryland's Fifth Congressional District, long-time incumbent congressman and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer attended a forum with Republican challenger Charles Lollar on Monday, October 18th. You can see from the first video that Hoyer wasn't pleased with Lollar's response to the current question (starts at 2:47 in the video). In fact, Hoyer has some words with Lollar that are inaudible because Hoyer's microphone is off. Later that day I received word from someone in attendance that after the forum concluded Hoyer punched Lollar in the back. The person said that Lollar turned to Hoyer and...

Charles Lollar, candidate for Congress in MD's 5th Congressional District, held a press conference on Oct. 19, elaborating on an exchange he had with Steny Hoyer at a candidate’s forum last week.

Lollar responded by reminding Mr. Hoyer that working class residents of the 5th Congressional District are coming after him! During the press conference Mr. Lollar said “Steny Hoyer and I faced off a few days ago in a debate hosted by the Charles County Chamber of Commerce.

Dingy Harry sweating it in Nevada, Fwank fwustwated, and Boxer on the ropes... here's another statist aparatchik that needs to go-away... and now's the time: The Dems seem to think House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer has nothing to worry about in Maryland's fifth congressional district, as do many other political observers... but the facts suggest otherwise (This interview should acquaint you well with Mr Hoyer and his positions). Interestingly, Hoyer himself actually claimed the Democrats were "a party on the rise" just last week, mocking polls showing double-digit Republican leads on the generic congressional ballot. What better way to bring...

WASHINGTON - The midterm congressional elections are seven months away.

It's a surge of black Republican activism that America hasn't seen since the Reconstruction era. Returning to Slavery? Charles Lollar is one of the candidates.

Steny Hoyer has been in Congress since 1981 and has been Nancy Pelosi’s sidekick in the Democrat House leadership since 2002. Professional politicians like Hoyer lose touch with the people and serve a different cause: themselves. They take your money and give it to bankers. They expand government. They want to run the healthcare system when they can’t keep the bridges and roads safe. Charles Lollar can change that but he needs your help. As a father, businessman, and Major in the U.S. Marine Corps (Reserves), Charles knows what its like in the real world. Support Charles and stop Steny’s...

Black Conservatives Take Lead Role in Tea Party Movement Though the tea party movement has attracted criticism for its supposed lack of diversity, minority activists who are involved say the movement has little to do with race, and that it is attracting a more diverse crowd every day. Lloyd Marcus' conservatism started when he was 9. His family had just moved out of the "ghetto" to a brand-new high rise in Baltimore -- within months, he said, the "dream come true" turned into a nightmare, as the building of welfare-collecting black residents became a den of crime. His father moved...
