Newsletter: Big Government Runs Amok!
March 10, 2012 Newsletter - Benton County Republicans
Whistleblower within Dept. of Interior Fired for Questioning Biased Science (Klamath Basin Dam Removal)
TODAY, 11a.m.-noon (Pacific time). Listen live on KYKN (1430-AM) or, if you’re outside of the Salem (Oregon) listening area, go to www.kykn.com and hit the listen live button. Guest: Dr. Paul Houser
This week: If you’re a regular listener to the I Spy Radio show, or the I Spy Minute, you know we’ve been following the situation down in Klamath. The Secretary of the Interior back in 2009 pledged that the effort to remove the dams, quote, “Will not fail.” Even worse, an eyewitness heard the Commissioner of the Bureau of Reclamation called the Klamath effort “precedent setting.” Meaning that if they can ram through the Klamath decision, the dams on the Snake and Columbia could also be on the chopping block.
This is an extremely important story. It’s big government run amok. This week we’re talking with a whistleblower, who alleges he was fired when he questioned how the science behind removing the dams—which is very uncertain—was being spun to the public. Tune in to hear his story and some of the chilling details of what’s going on behind the veil of secrecy of big government.
Two Robinsons run against DeFazio!
EUGENE, Ore. - Voters caught a glimpse of Matthew Robinson in TV ads 2 years ago when his father Art ran as the Republican nominee for Congress against Rep. Peter DeFazio, a 13-term Democrat from Springfield.
Now voters in Oregon's 4th District will see more of Robinson - both Art and Matthew.
In the run up to the May primary, Art Robinson intends to again seek the GOP nomination for Congress.
Matthew Robinson wants to run, too - as a Democrat. He changed his voter registration from Republican to Democrat last August and filed to run against DeFazio in the May primary.
The 24-year-old nuclear engineering graduate student at Oregon State University's birthday is in June, so he'll be old enough to meet the Constitutional age requirement.
"I decided that DeFazio needed some competition in the primary, so I decided to run against him," Robinson told KVAL News.
“We’re out to replace him,” he said, “and this is a fine chance to replace him in the primary.” Read more at KVAL News. See related article in the Democrat Herald.
Press Conference Leaves Many Questions Unanswered
Heritage Foundation - This week, President Barack Obama ended his months-long press conference drought and faced the White House press corps. Unfortunately for the American people, questions on some of the biggest issues facing the country remain unanswered. WHY DIDN’T the PRESS and the PRESIDENT DISCUSS THE FOLLOWING TOPICS? THE ECONOMY wasn’t discussed, although 8% (13 million) Americans are unemployed and only 63.7% of adult Americans are active in the labor force, the lowest since 1983. We’re in the slowest economic recovery in the post-war-era. OBAMA WANTS $$$TWO TRILLION IN NEW TAXES. How will massive tax hikes on job creators spur job growth? NO BUDGET?? It’s been over 1,000 days since the Senate passed a budget. No plan to reform unsustainable entitlement programs. The subject wasn’t raised in the Press conference by the Press or by the President. THE KEYSTONE XL PIPELINE. The President didn’t deny that rising gas and oil prices support his long term agenda. He didn’t address Keystone, regulatory hurdles to drilling and refining in the US, or his Energy Secretary’s policies to see gasoline cost at least $5 a gallon. IRAN and U.S. RELATIONSHIP with ISRAEL. The Press didn’t push the President on a number of vital issues regarding his policies with these two nations.
OBAMACARE’S ASSAULT on RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. All we got was political rhetoric. The question that brought this debate to the fore was ignored: Where in the Constitution does the President find the authority to issue a mandate that violates the conscience of religious organizations and people?
OBAMA REFUSES to DENOUCE INSULTS against REPUBLICAN WOMEN. Rae Lynne Chornenky, President of the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW), issued the following statement following President Obama's Tuesday news conference in which he ignored questions regarding insults made against Republican women.
“The hypocrisy displayed by President Barack Obama and liberal Democrats when Republican women are the targets of vicious attacks is shameful,” Chornenky said. “Yesterday, President Obama dodged questions from USA Today and the Daily Caller, flatly refusing to denounce or even criticize his liberal supporters for making vile remarks about Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann and other prominent Republican women. What hypocrisy! And, what about the mainstream media? Where are the media when liberals utter demeaning, derogatory remarks about Republican women? Nowhere to be found. This liberal hypocrisy and media double standard must end.”
Final Gavel Falls-2012 Legislative Session Adjourned
This week the final gavel fell ending Oregon’s five-week, 2012 legislative session. For a complete list of what was accomplished during the 2012 Legislative Session. (Click here www.dennisrichardson.org/2012_keyvotes.pdf). The key goals for this short, even-year session: 1) Rebalance the State Budget, 2&3) Pass transformative legislation for education and health care, and 4) Clear the path for Oregon’s economic recovery and jobs for Oregon workers. Bipartisan cooperation and compromise enabled legislative success in meeting the first three of Oregon’s key goals. Unfortunately, Democrats would not cooperate when the legislature turned its attention to bills introduced by Republican legislators that had the key goal of creating a clear path for Oregon’s economic recovery and creating jobs for Oregon’s unemployed and underemployed workers.

A message from Art Robinson
Dear Friends,
There will be a rally in support of Professor Higginbotham and the three Robinson OSU PhD students on the OSU Memorial Union Quad beginning at 2:30pm on April 20 - this coming Wednesday. This rally is being organized by the Linn County Republicans. If you are able to attend, please come out and help us.
The rally begins at 2:30 pm on the the Memorial Union Quad (14th & Monroe, Corvallis, OR). Parking is $1.00 per hour in the student lots - free parking behind the Hilton Hotel - parking lot P (www.oregonstate.edu/campusmap). Free 2 hour parking is also available in surrounding areas.
I will be speaking to the Linn County Republican Women's meeting at 11:45 am on Wednesday April 20 at Pop's Branding Iron restaurant (corner of Pacific Boulevard and Madison Avenue in SE Albany) which is about 3 hours before the rally begins. I'll speak again at the rally in support of the students and Professor Higginbotham.
The OSU President, Edward Ray, still refuses to speak with the Robinson students or with me, even though he has been free with his criticism of us behind our backs. So, we will take our message to him on his own campus. (I know, he doesn't own it. The taxpayers own it, but he thinks he does.)
Lars Larson, broadcasting from the Memorial Quad on Friday, opened this public discussion at OSU. We will continue it with the rally on Wednesday.
Will President Ray have the courage to attend this rally and speak for himself? I have challenged him to debate the matter on the Quad on Wednesday at 3:00 pm. Ray's friend Peter DeFazio was not courageous enough to debate. Is Ray?
Come on Wednesday and see.
Thank you for all of your help.
