37 Years On
On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court handed down the still controversial Roe v. Wade decision. That ruling effectively took the massive moral question of abortion out of the hands of the American people, and in the 37 years since, an estimated 50 million unborn children have been aborted. Since that time, we have learned that “Roe,” Norma McCorvey, was used by radicals and taught to lie about the circumstances of her pregancy in court. Today, she is strongly pro-life. There are Walks for Life today all over the country and Texas, including Dallas, Houston, at the capitol in Austin and in Washington, DC to mark the day.
Rather than recite Roe’s legacy of division and rancor that by now we all are familiar with, today’s anniversary is an appropriate time to note a few things that are happening right now. The American people are, for the first time since the question has been polled, more pro-life than not. In May 2009, Gallup found that 51% of Americans identify themselves as pro-life, while 42% identify as pro-choice.

Messages from TEA Party Patriots, Inc.
There is much talk of the formation of a third political party based on the tea party movement. In Florida, a Democratic operative with absolutely no connection to the tea party movement has filed papers to form a third party called the Florida Tea Party. He has issued legal threats against local tea parties demanding that they cease using the name “Florida Tea Party.
Support C-SPAN’s Call for Access in Health Care Debate
C-SPAN Chairman Brian Lamb has asked Congress to open access to the negotiations to C-SPAN cameras.
We agree. It is time to let the light shine on the health care negotiations. Let’s hold the President accountable. Let’s hold our Representatives in Congress, who have repeatedly said they will be transparent, accountable for their campaign promises.
We the People demand that they open the hearings on the health care bill to public scrutiny and comment by televising the full proceedings on C-SPAN.
Help us support C-SPAN’s call for access to the hearings through this Tea Party Patriots petition.
Sign the petition now by following this link:
http://teapartypatriots.org/supportcspan
Forward this email or a link to the petition to your entire email list and ask them to sign the petition as well. Change your Facebook status to: Support C-SPAN’s call for access. If you have other social media accounts like Twitter, LinkedIn, Plaxo, and MySpace, change your status there as well.
Call your Congressman’s and 2 Senators’ local offices and DC offices to tell them to open all health care hearings and negotiations to C-SPAN. Tell them you want no more back room, cover of darkness deals.
Thank you for your help in this effort. Together we can and will hold our elected officials accountable. Together we will work to let the light shine in on this process!
A Message and Action Call from Grassfire Nation:
They are doing it again… Reid and Pelosi are holding secret, backroom meetings to put the final touches on ObamaCare. I’m done with government working in the shadows, away from public scrutiny. See below.
-Steve
My staff has identified the key members of Congress that need to hear from you. Each one needs to be told repeatedly that the American people don’t like secrets, and won’t stand for more murky and sleazy backroom dealings. That is why we have to diligently use the time that remains to put the ENTIRE Congress on notice demanding these secret meetings be brought to light.

Willie’s Words:
“The 27th District represents the very best of Texas. It’s why I choose to live here, raise my family here, make my livelihood here, and fulfill my dreams here. And while our National Government is broken and unresponsive to our needs, together, we can rebuild it and restore honor and integrity to District 27.”
Willie will be available (along with other congressional candidates) to answer questions at the Youth Forum being held the evening of November 10th in the Harlingen Public Library Auditorium.
