Obama and NASA

In the late 1980's, students were told, "If the development of the space stationprogresses as planned, it will be manned and orbiting Earth by the late 1990's.Within fteen years of that date, a working community maybe operational on the moon. Further plans project a manned ight and landing oMars by the year 2015."

Lessons were developed to create an awareness of important historical eventsoccurring as a new age of exploration was unfolding. These lessons also createdexcitement, not only in the areas of math and science, but also in many areas ofdeveloping problem-solving skills, decision-making skills, including other intelletual and academic areas as well.

Robert Goddard, a rocket pioneer, said, "Real progress is not a leap in the dark, bsuccession of logical steps." And that is exactly what NASA did with every ight. new information was gained, new materials were created, manufactured, testedand new ights and experiments were planned and implemented constantly as moved onward in a new "age of exploration and discovery." The space programstimulated "spin-o" technologies, products, and materials too numerous tomention here. But all of us have benetted, whether from medical, environmentcomputer technologies, or a multitude of others you can nd online.

Since 2010, we have witnessed the end of the Shuttle missions, the "eliminationtwo proposed joint missions with Europeans to explore Mars in 2016 and 2018."President Obama assured workers two years ago that their work on the ConstellaProgram would continue but he then decided to cancel it. Consequently, thousan

of people are out of work, towns are becoming ghost towns as businesses andschools close, homes are lost, and workers say the president lied to them. Furthesince the shuttle was retired, NASA now pays Russia about $60 million per persotransport our astronauts to the International Space Station the United States wainstrumental in building. (Has this helped Russia fund and create the #1 ghterplane in the world? Check it out... SU-30-Vectored Thrust...")

President Obama told the current NASA Administrator to "nd a way to reach outthe Muslim world and engage much more with predominantly Muslim nations tohelp them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engining." The former administrator rightfully terms this "a perversion of NASA's purpoWhile "President Obama has sneered at the idea of American exceptionalism," th

is nothing that shouts out American exceptionalism more than our space exploraNASA inspired teachers by sharing information and oering training opportunitiThis in turn led to stimulating student learning and achievement. It is a sad day iAmerica when its president can defeat such a positive and superb program.

Finally, a bit of advice I once heard: "Aspire to Inspire before you Expire." Let's all this by carefully selecting, promoting, and voting for new American leadership inwho we can believe will represent us and care about this country!

Commentary

Presidents Message

Charles Anderson Dana (1819-1897) wasthe editor-in-chief of the New York Sun,one of the largest newspapers in thecountry, and considered by many the mostbrilliant journalist in the country at thattime. He wrote:

I believe in Christianity, that it is thereligion taught to men by God Himself inperson on earth. I also believe the Bible tobe a Divine revelation. Christianity is notcomparable with any other religion. It isthe religion which came from Gods ownlips. The incarnation is a fact, and Christi-anity is based on revealed truth.

There are some books that are absolutelyindispensable to the kind of education thatwe are contemplating, and to the profes-sion that we are now considering: and of

all these, the most indispensable, the mostuseful, the one whose knowledge is mosteective, is the Bible.

I wonder how our forefathers would reactto the fact that the Bible is no longerallowed in our public schools and, in 2012,we have a President who has proclaimedwe are not a Christian nation?

Food for Thought

In Remembrance:

s March comes in like a lion, we have lost one of our own. The ever courageousAndrew Breitbart has passed away. His passion for truth has awakened us time

after time. May we never let go of the ght for liberty in our nation which he cared for somuch. Our hearts have been touched by someone truly special. Let us pray for his family.

As Andrew addressed CPAC 2012 launching the year, we had our own CRP Convention last

week in Burlingame, featuring Newt Gingrich, Herman Cain, Michael Reagan and TimPawlenty enthusiastically stirring the event!

Andrew knew that this election was the most important in our lifetime. We constantly ndourselves pushed against the wall with so many parts of America being attacked - now Chis currently in Canada making deals for oil. Pray we never see a pipeline from Alberta to thePacic Ocean with Chinese tankers in port loading up! The Bakken formation is 1.5 trillionbarrels, far bigger than Saudi Arabia reserves. It is essential to work with our sister nation,Canada, and create 22,000 jobs. Also, if Obama stops the ow of the Alaska pipeline, it wilrender that pipeline useless as it must remain continuous. Write the President a messageabout these issues and gas prices~ he wants Europes prices: this just may happen.

With our current President spending $63,000 per second, this election cannot come soonenough. We must elect the strongest President in November, keep the House, win the Sena

defeat Obamacare and rescue the nation! Our elders and children are depending on us.With our focus on the perpetual campaign for president, we forget that many races are jusbeginning. In fact, local ling deadlines are this month on March 9th.

National LegislationThis months topic is the Alinsky Model for transforming our society and how the Democrat Party wand is the pansy being used to accomplish this. Column space doesnt allow an in-depth study, butoer the Alinsky plan in a nutshell. You should further your understanding by reading David Horow51-page booklet, Barack Obamas Rules for Revolution The Alinsky Model. (Gwen Morris handed copies [thanks to Mary Goldenberger] at our Feb. 16th meeting.) Pass it on.

Saul Alinsky, 1909-1972, grew up in Chicago and aligned with the boot-legging mob. Al Capone whis mentor. His second-in-command, Frank Nitti, took over when Capone was sentenced to prison f

tax evasion. Alinsky aligned with the mob because they had POWER and gaining power is the mostimportant goal in realizing Alinskys perfect society. He is dead but his evil ways are alive and welltoday in many prominent people who hold positions of high power and/or inuence. Alinsky and hradical followers have hidden behind many dierent names Communists, socialists, new leftistliberals, social justice activists and, most consistently, progressives. On the dedicatory page of his Rufor Radicals, Alinsky wrote Lest we forget, an over-the-shoulder acknowledgement to the very radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves and history begins or which is which), the rst radical known to man who rebelled against theestablishment and did it so eectively that he at least won his own kingdom---Lucifer. Alinskybelieved that Americas institutions, governmental and societal, are wrong, dead wrong from hisperception of what a heaven on Earth should be: that it is correct to destroy them or anyone who stain his way. When Progressives say they are at war with someone or something, that is exactly wha

they mean. No action is unjust for their purposes. Republicans are just now realizing the extent of Progressive hate for anything that opposes their agenda.

Knowing this gives us insight into how Progressives can support partial-birth abortion and refusemedical care for babies who survive, embrace Obamacare with its rationing and euthanasia, and thendorsement of environmental policies that even condemn human life. Remember the reghtersthe Southwest who were allowed to burn to death because the Forest Service was not allowed to dwater on them from a nearby stream that contained some endangered species? I remember thenewscast and later when Bush took oce and said that would never be allowed to happen again.Knowing all this makes understanding views of people like Nancy Pelosi, Hillary and Bill Clinton, AlGore, the Czars, and Barack Obama a bit easier. Honestly, what can you expect from people who foa hating radical who in his dedicatory page gave a shout out to Satan?

The Progressive Party nally formed to oppose an America-loving and Communist-hating DemocrHarry Truman. The party chose another of FDR's many vice presidents, Henry Wallace, to run againsTruman. Wallace had no problem with Communism and actually supported it. Progressives continuworking, often stealthily, over the years. They joined the 1972 McGovern presidential campaign bycreating a hundred-plus member Progressive Caucus in the congressional party and the ascension oBarack Obama to the presidency, have become its most important political force. The 1972 electionyear was the turning point in the transformation of the Democrat Party. Many clueless currentDemocrats still believe their party represents the little people in society. Actually, as most Republand conservatives recognize, the Democrat Party is using the little people as pawns in their quest ultimate power. Using class warfare, blaming the evil rich, and creating multiple give-away progrshores up their growing and ever more hopeless base The demolition of the middle class is a purpoplan by the evil rich Progressive leaders, who have gamed the system for themselves. Thats exactly

what community organizers do. Progressive paradise will be many, many little people on the bottof society with their meager lives controlled by the much fewer, powerful, ultra-rich Progressive leaat the top. Ever wonder how Obama can spend so much of our tax dollars on himself? He sees himas one of the entitled Progressives already at the top of the heap.

Obama will utilize any tool, any method, any means to get reelected. He never met Saul Alinsky inperson but hes deeply steeped in Alinskys beliefs and methods. Thats what the Chicago years wereabout. Obama uses Alinskys most basic principle (and most eective, in my opinion) to attain hisgoalslie to their opponents and disarm them by pretending to be moderates and liberals." Beforewarned! The Progressive machine will stop at nothing to destroy the rest of us.

Living in Humboldt County and District 1 forthirty-three years has taught me about thequality of life residents cherish. Sadly, manyfamilies in the district are struggling to nd jobs

that pay a living wage and have all but given uphope of owning a home in the area. It does nothave to be this way.

Our county is home to an abundance ofcompassionate, generous, can-do people who areresilient, courageous, and bright.

Together, we can build a strong, vital economy in

Humboldt County.

It is my promise that your voice will be heardand that I will work for you and our community,building without destroying, and strengthening

without compromising the quality of life we allenjoy. With your help, we can move HumboldtCounty forward together.

If you have any District 1 issues you would like todiscuss, please don't hesitate to call me at thecampaign oce 707-476-0531, or send me anemail from the Contact page. I look forward tohearing from you.

Ways & Means

NO-BAKE BAKE SALEOur "No-Bake Bake Sale" fundraiser was a success.A big thank you to all HRWF members who made

donations. Our February Opportunity Drawingprizes were donated by Renner Petroleum,

Debbie Walker, Pearl Micheli & Carol Del Biaggio.

The winners were Annette De Modena,Amanda Sachs, Irene Stidston and Vee Sorensen.

To donate a prize for future drawings,please telephone Linda Arata at 839-5054.

nce again the Sacramento politicians and powerful specialinterests are attempting to subvert the will of the people and

sabotage the publics support for strong term limits for State Legislators.

They tried it before with Proposition 93 in 2008. Now Jerry Brown and

his special interest cronies are at it again. They have maneuvered thecynical and misleading Proposition 28 on the June ballot and it woulddramatically increase the time that politicians can hold legislative oce.

Since voters will probably not receive an honest and complete descrip-tion of the initiative, the proposition may pass even though Californianshave a strong support for term limits.

California Common Sense and Stanford Institute for Economics andPolicy Research published a new report on local pension systems,February 21, showing that the largest independent systems are over$130 billion in debt.

Studies and warnings seem to go unheeded among our elected ocials.

Ironic, isn't it?The food stamp program,

part of the Dep't. of Agriculture, is pleased to be

distributing the highest number of food stamps ever.Meanwhile, the Park Service,

also part of the Dep't. of Agriculture,asks "please do not feed the animals"

because the animals may grow dependentand not learn to take care of themselves....

AndrewBreitbart

In Memoriam

The conservative movement has lost a powerful voice in the ght toprotect our freedom. Andrew Breitbart was a pioneer in using socialmedia and digital technology to bring a courageous conservative

message to Americas grassroots. He did something many in theconservative movement are afraid to do - go right at the left and not backdown. Andrew served as an example to the rest of the conservative movement of how to ght for our values without apology or compromise. American Majority

God bless you, Andrew. Rest in peace, friend. We will continue the ght.

Sarah Palin

I still see him in my minds eye in Venice Beach, the sunny day I met him.

He was in his mid 20s. It was all there. He had a wonderful, loving family

and we all feel great sadness for them today.
