Chet Edwards’ Record On… Abortion While “Representing” Texas 17
A continuation of the Chet Edwards' On... series. How has Chet Edwards voted, representing you and me here in Texas District 17? He claims to be Pro-Life but doesn’t think the government should be making decisions that usurp a woman’s right to choose. So what does the record how, in relation to that public stance? Chet [...]
Chet Edwards’ Record On… His Real And Complete Record “Representing” Texas 17
Back when we discussed the Battle At Midway, I told you wwe would start hitting hard on Chet Edwards. Since he refused our request for an interview in order to explain his stance on the issues he has voted on we can only provide you his voting record…which speaks for itself. Now it begins… From now until Election Day, American Writes [...]
Keeping Score: Matt Mackowiak’s Latest Misstep Gives Chet Edwards Lead Over Bill Flores 10–3
Remember the fib Matt Mackowiak told Bill Flores to say if he was ever asked who he voted for in the 2008 election? Chet Edwards does and scores a field goal to increase his lead. Edwards unleashed his first commercial today, sending an unlisted link to Congressional Quarterly for the video he has posted on his YouTube Channel. Congressional [...]
Meet The Real Texas 17 GOP Candidate – Matt Mackowiak
Matt Mackowiak is Bill Flores’ Campaign Manager. When you hear Bill Flores speak, see his campaign material or the campaign strategy played out, or experience a tactical response from him or the campaign relative to something Chet Edwards does – you are seeing Matt Mackowiak – NOT Bill Flores. That is my firm belief: that you are NOT [...]
What Bill Flores Won’t Do For Texas 17 In Congress
While I still believe Bill Flores is not a Conservative to the standards of Ronald Reagan by which I measure a politician’s claim of ideological bent, I believe he is a Republican and not a RINO, and Conservatives have a good chance of being represented by him in Congress merely by the fact that we do not know what he will do when he gets to [...]
Dear Bill Flores: I Am Very Sorry
My apology is for more than Bill. It includes his entire family and campaign, except The Candidate, whom I mentioned in my previous post is not Bill Flores, but somebody completely different in name, body and soul. This is not some trick of words. The Candidate is really some entirely different person than Bill Flores. But I will save that for [...]
If It Walks, Talks, And Smells Like A RINO – It Must Be A Republican
Bill Flores is not a RINO. Yes dear readers, I have put into print, stored electronically forever, Bill Flores will no longer be referred to as a RINO in my postings. With the alphabetized, acronym filled world of politics we live in, we have all become “Alphabet Kids”. For those who may be new to this blog, allow me to give a brief cast of [...]
I Was Wrong About Bill Flores
There’s a headline for ya. In fairness, it should say “My Perception Of Bill Flores Was Wrong,” but that doesn’t roll off the tongue so easily. I cannot explain to the full extent how wrong I was or why I think I was wrong in one short blog post…and a long one would make you lose interest and take away an opportunity for me to have [...]
A Few Moments WIth Bill Flores
Shortly after finishing my last post, I attended the public swearing in of Texas State Senator Brian Birdwell. While there the opportunity to speak with Matt Mackowiak, Campaign Manager for Bill Flores, presented itself. During our conversation, I requested a personal meeting with Bill to which Matt said he would see what could be arranged. [...]
