Early jockeying has begun in the race for chairman of the conservative Republican Study Committee — the largest caucus on Capitol Hill, and one that has seen its influence grow with Donald Trump in the White House. At least five House Republicans told The Hill they are weighing bids to replace the group's chairman, Rep. Mark Walker (N.C.). Known informally as the RSC, the caucus imposes a two-year term limit on its chairman, giving more members a chance to lead. So far, the possible contenders are: four-term Rep. Vicky Hartzler (Mo.); three-term Rep. Roger Williams (Texas); two-term Rep. Barry Loudermilk...

Redistricting fuels high N.C. political turnoverU.S. Rep. Watt said he's also considering whether to retire By Jim Morrill Modified: Thursday, Feb. 09, 2012 One governor. Three members of Congress. Thirty state lawmakers. And counting. That's how many North Carolina elected officials have announced they're not running for re-election. Before candidate filing ends Feb. 29, there are certain to be more in what's shaping up to be a year of historic change. Democratic Rep. Mel Watt said Wednesday that he's considering retiring after 20 years in the 12th District - a day after Republican U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick said she won't...

This is the caliber of personnel we have come to expect from the Obama Administration. From Josh Gerstein at Politico : "During a House Intelligence Committee hearing Thursday, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper called Egypt's branch of the Muslim Brotherhood movement 'largely secular.' "In response to questioning from Rep. Sue Myrick (R-N.C.) about the threat posed by the group, Clapper suggested that the Egyptian part of the Brotherhood is not particularly extreme and that the broader international movement is hard to generalize about. "'The term 'Muslim Brotherhood'...is an umbrella term for a variety of movements, in the case of...

Border: A Hezbollah-like car bomb explodes in a border town as a congresswoman asks Homeland Security about links between the terrorist group and Mexican drug cartels. This is more than an immigration problem. Car bombs are a terrorist specialty and not a drug cartel modus operandi. The heavily armed cartels are more into shootings and kidnappings. So the car bomb that exploded Thursday in Ciudad Juarez, near a federal police headquarters, killing four, was either a change in tactics for the cartels or a sign of teaming up with a terrorist group, one of which could be Iran-linked Hezbollah. Officials...

For the Independent Weekly of Durham, North Carolina, writer Sam Wardle proves that he hasn’t a clue how the phrase “religious extremist” is properly defined. But, I’d suggest that his confusion is endemic in the far left and proves to show why so many in the west don’t understand how to face and defeat the real religious extremism of radical Islam. In a story about Representative Sue Myrick (R, NC) and her association with The National Council on Bible Curriculum in Public Schools as juxtaposed with her condemnation of radical Islam, Wardle sees no difference between a radical Islamist that...

A Muslim leader who has tried to portray the founder of the Congressional Anti-Terrorism Caucus in Washington as an extremist "hatemonger" was himself exposed as an extremist on a popular radio program. For years, Jibril Hough has represented himself and his North Carolina mosque as "moderate," while putting Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., on the defensive as an anti-Muslim fanatic who "shoots from the hip" when sounding the alarm about homegrown Islamic terrorism. Myrick, a member of the House Intelligence Committee, co-founded the Capitol Hill caucus after 9/11 to educate Americans about the growing threat from jihadists. But during an in-studio...

Rep. Myrick: “These so-called health care reform bills have different names: a public option, a co-op, a trigger. Make no mistake, these are all gateways to government-run health care.” Washington, Sep 18 - WASHINGTON, DC - Rep. Sue Myrick (R-NC) today delivered the weekly Republican address on the need for fiscally responsible health care reform that makes health care more affordable and accessible for every American. Rep. Myrick, a breast cancer survivor and former small business owner, talks about her experiences and calls on Democrats in Washington to seek bipartisan solutions to our nation’s health care challenges. Audio of the...

When I learned that my Representative, Sue Myrick, would hold a health-care town hall meeting at our local high school, I decided to attend to see firsthand how much of the passion against socialized medicine was the result of real grass roots or just “Astroturf” (as Nancy Pelosi put it). Sue is a strong conservative who came to office as part of the 1994 Republican revolution. Since she’s against the current house bill (HR 3200), I didn’t think all that many would turnout. Wow, was I wrong! Let me set the context for you. I live in a half-rural half-residential...

WEDDINGTON More that 1,200 people crowded into Weddington High School Tuesday night for a boisterous town hall meeting that evoked passionate sentiments not only about health care, but also immigration and the Obama administration. “It's not about covering the uninsured in this country, it seems to me it's all about control,” Union County businessman Tony Mangum said, voice breaking. “I get emotional because I fear we're losing this country.” A crowd that filled the school auditorium and overflowed into the cafeteria came out for the first of three town halls this week hosted by U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick of Charlotte....

Former President Jimmy Carter is scheduled to meet this week with Khaled Meshaal, the leader of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement, known as Hamas. I deplore his decision to meet with a group that has been identified by the United States, European Union, and Israel as a terrorist organization. Hamas deliberately targets innocent Israeli civilians on a daily basis by indiscriminately firing rockets into their cities. Mr. Carter should know better than this. I respect President Carter’s desire for peace in the Middle East. He helped broker the 1979 Egypt-Israel peace treaty, but this situation is different. The Egyptian and...

I recieved this email from the Sue Myrick campaign last week. She's my rep and I vote for her everytime..... Dear (my name), If our economy isn’t in recession, it sure feels like it. The subprime market failed because, in an effort to make even more money, lenders gave loans to people who clearly couldn’t afford them. Subprime homebuyers are also to blame because they signed for larger houses than they could really afford. A booming housing market and insatiable spending can no longer mask our troubles. America is a slave to foreign oil. America out produced every country in...

Embattled Muslim aide to leave Pentagon job Hesham Islam's 'resume didn't add up,' official says WorldNetDaily February 11, 2008In a stunning turn of events, a high-level Muslim military aide blamed for costing an intelligence contractor his job will step down from his own Pentagon post, WND has learned. Meanwhile, his rival, Maj. Stephen Coughlin, a leading authority on Islamic war doctrine, may stay in the Pentagon, moving from the office of the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to the office of the secretary of defense. However, sources say a former U.S. ambassador to Turkey is trying to block...

CHARLOTTE (AP) — When offering her opinion about a deal to sell six major U.S. seaports to a state-owned business in the United Arab Emirates, Rep. Sue Myrick decided a single sentence would be enough to make her point. "In regards to selling American ports to the United Arab Emirates, not just NO — but HELL NO!" Myrick wrote in a letter sent Wednesday to President Bush. Aside from the standard greeting — "Dear Mr. President" — and closing — "Sincerely, Sue Myrick, Member of Congress" — that sentence is all the Republican from Charlotte wrote in her letter. Bush...

Rep. Sue Myrick (R-N.C.) let slip a bombshell disclosure at a news conference today to announce a bill targeting states that allow illegal aliens to get drivers licenses. During the Q&A with reporters, Myrick gave as a reason for proposing the bill the recent capture of three al Qaeda terrorists at the U.S.-Mexico border. A check of Google News turned up no references to this incident, yet Myrick stated this was a 'given fact.' No reporter asked her about this revelation, but it was noted at the end of a Charlotte Observer article by Tim Funk. Two Representatives from North...
