Not quite a flash, since the evidence has been around for years and the media has chosen to ignore the salient point that makes it front and center, which appeared in print on June 4 from the folks at the Cleburne-Times Review.
To whit:
The Article, Edwards Questions Flores’ Credibility, by Matt Smith, included this gem in the form of the third paragraph from the end of the article:
Said [Flores Campaign Manager Matt] Mackowiak, “Chet Edwards actively campaigned for Barack Obama… Chet helped install Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House. This is the regime that he helped put in control of America. Therefore, he deserves credit for all of the bad ideas they are pushing.” (more…)
Bill Flores uses his acronym “ROPE” to describe Reid, Obama, Pelosi, and Edwards. And he claims we didn’t give them a blank check in his latest mail piece:

Monday, the Curnock campaign released its latest Radio ad:
Now, if you don’t vote, you give the victors a free ride. And, as my dad always says, “If you don’t vote, you can’t gripe.” (Dad uses a different word.)
“Reconciliation,” as the Liberals in Congress are calling it relative to the potential for using it to pass Obamacare, is what used to be called the Nuclear Option back when Republicans were threatening to use it to get President Bush’s judicial nominees through the advise and consent process.
The Liberals are threatening to use it now to pass Obamacare while a few years ago they were aghast at the thought of using it for anything other than the strict budget process usage it was designed for – by Liberal Racist Senator Byrd, incidentally.
Here’s what they said:

UPDATE: 2009-08-10 8:10PM -- New Video Added that shares the audio of our request for a face to face town hall meeting:
Well, we asked again…
Mug Shots of The Mob
Today at Noon 250 people showed up at Congressman Chet Edwards’ office in Bryan, Texas, to peacefully ask for a town hall meeting. His field representative, Phil Shackeford, said only the phone meeting was still scheduyled.
And that was for, as Phil put it, “…Doctors, nurse, those who have a stake in healthcare…”
Last I checked, every citizen in District 17 was human and occasionally got sick. That would make them “stakeholders”.
The audio and the video tells the take. If you need to fast forward the audio to the time when we get to talk to Phil, it’s at about 50 minutes in. The line was long, as you will see in the video. (more…)
I was visiting with my radical right wing friends at breakfast this morning when the point was made regarding supply and demand in the current Healthcare scandal proposal:
If we want to avoid longer lines at emergency rooms, doctors offices, and surgical wait time once we inject 47 Million people into the system with Government/Universal/Single payer healthcare, how many doctors would we need to increase our medical rolls by in order to meet that demand?
If the audio begins to play, you can scroll down to pause it in the player.
I received an email alert this morning, that I reposted to Twitter (W/ an auto-repost every ten minutes), Facebook, and this Blog. It was about a visit by Chet Edwards, Texas District 17 representative to Congress, to a local event that would be a place where people could gather and ask for a Town Hall Meeting.
Edwards does not have any meetings with constituents as a whole scheduled.
I recorded audio for an entire hour, from just before arriving to just before leaving.
I recorded video of the crowd as well as the report one representative of the local Republican Party gave after following Chet inside. (more…)
Today’s American Thought is posted to Twitter twice a day, mid-morning and mid-evening Central Time. They are quotes, or condensed quotes from Americans and others around the world who have embodied the American Spirit with their words. I post the same quote twice to catch those people who have different schedules and may find my morning post gets so far down on the list of tweets they are trying to catch up with that they might miss these meaningful mentions.
This listing is updated weekly here on this page to give the full quotation and the citation…something that is difficult to do in the 140 character limit of Twitter.
