I had nothing to do with this . .

. . but I wholeheartedly support it!

Get your's HERE!

Was this trip REALLY necessary?

A follow-up story by CBS News relieved the recently released expenditures report for the boondoggle to Copenhagen for the pointless "Climate Change" Summit. Our Pal, the "Honorable" Congressman Cleaver felt his presence was essential. He spent a total of TWO DAYS in Denmark at a cost to us, the taxpayers, of $4,406. And that's not counting airfare!


Total cost to taxpayers for this entire junket . . well over $1.1 million!

If you're like me and think all this is a huge waste of hot gas, you know what to do in November!

You can read the entire expenditure report HERE.

And you can listen to KCMO 710 morning radio host Chris Stigall talk about it HERE.

Cleaver in Copenhagen?

It should come as no surprise that when there's something completely pointless and wasteful going on, our own Congressman Cleaver will be there. Still I have to admit my jaw dropped a bit when I heard his name on this evening's CBS News broadcast as one of the 17 congresspeople who decided their presence was essential to the Copenhagen climate debate and flew there on OUR tab! Hope you had a great time Congressman Cleaver! Ten more months and you're OUT!

It might be funny if it wasn't true . .

I'm nearly at a loss for words, folks. After playing a kind of political "Survivor" game up on the hill for years now, trying to fly under the radar by just going along with the group, Congressman Cleaver is now going to stick his neck out and sponsor some MEANINGFUL legislation.

He's been shopping this idea around for a while, but now he's ready to push forward and FIGHT for what's right!

Here's the story (I couldn't summarize this any better):
Finally, A Congressman With a Solution: Stop Complaining So Much

And here's the letter our esteemed Congressman sent to his colleges:

Saturday night Congressman Cleaver joined 218 of his fellow Democrats in voting FOR H.R. 3962: The Affordable Health Care for America Act. This legislation has an interesting title, considering it does NOTHING to actually reduce the cost of health care. What does it do? Let's have a look.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that:

1. Under the bill, the share of legal nonelderly residents with insurance coverage would rise from about 83 percent currently to about 96 percent.
2. The net cost of this bill will be $891 billion by 2010.

That's nearly 900 BILLION DOLLARS to insure 13% of the population! If that isn't stupid enough, the bill mandates that everyone have $15,000 in health insurance or pay a fine to the IRS, or go to jail.

The bottom line here is, this isn't really about health care. Anybody who who says it is is either a fool or a liar.

Which one is Congressman Cleaver?

All's quiet on the Cleaver front

There has been very little out of Representative Cleaver in the days following the town hall meetings. Why is that? Perhaps the wind is not blowing in the right [left] direction these days. While our good representative seems to be hiding under a rock we will be busy turning over those rocks in the coming weeks. Stay tuned . .
