What is a liberal??
A liberal is one who protested against the wars
in Iraq and Afghanistan until Obama took ofce.
A liberal is one who wails about 'corporate
welfare' but thinks it's great that Obama
bailed out GM to save union contracts.
A liberal is someone who lives
in a gated community but says that
a border fence won't work.
A liberal is someone who
thinks Fox News lies but Obama doesn't.
A liberall is one who says to a pregnant woman,
"Don't smoke! it'll hurt your baby!"--
but tells her it's okay to abort that baby.
A liberal is someone who thinks
the Republicans have a war on women
but the Muslim world doesn't.
--------------
A man was telling his buddy:
"You won't believe what happened last night.
My daughter walked into the living room and said,
Dad, cancel my allowance immediately, forget my
college tuition loan, rent my room out, throw all
my clothes out the window; take my TV, and my
laptop. Please take any of my jewelry to the
Salvation Army or Cash Converters. Then, sell my
car, take my front door key away from me and
throw me out of the house. Then, disown me and
never talk to me again. And don't forget to write
me out of your will and leave my share to any
charity you choose. "
"Holy Smokes," replied the friend, "she actually
said all that?"
"Well, she didn't put it quite like that; she actually
said, 'Dad, meet my new boyfriend, Mohammed.
We're going to work together on Hillary Clinton's
presidential election campaign!'"

Message
What, me? You mean I need to do something to change this governmental misery were
experiencing?
Yes. Plain and simple.
Greetings, Everyone!
Its my hope that you have all had a fulflling, restful summer. We have great things coming
in the months ahead, but we need your help. It doesnt matter if its only two days a week,
two hours a day, or four hours in the week. We need your help!
Locally and statewide, there are victories for us to win; and they wont be won if we do not
unify and step out into the uncomfortable to make that change happen. Four years ago, I
made that venture into politics. I had no idea what to do, but I was inspired to meet a goal
and make a diference. Although my direction has changed, my goal has stayed the same:
Republicans need to lead and bring common sense, reason, and constructive, not destruc-
tive, ideas to government and thus to the people they serve. Needless to say, that means
we must put our faith in, and support, with more than our vote in November. It doesnt
matter if you have no experience in knocking on those doors or making those calls. Youll
learn! Thats the point! Thats who we are-- thats what we do. We were all born to be
overcomers!
I have spoken to you about this in the past but, now more than ever, we need your eyes,
ears, legs, arms.YOU.to break down your walls of insecurity and fear and go for the
gusto and a new learning curve. What can you be afraid of? The unknown? Its only a new
learning curve, and we know we are all capable of that. Were freedom- loving Americans
who see that a county Democrat-controlled government, a state Democrat-controlled
government, and a federal Democrat-controlled government never means good govern-
ment. There must be give and take, and currently all we experience is take. Or, shall we
say, a new defnition of give and take that doesnt relate to what we have previously
understood as its meaning.
As I share some experiences with you from the last few months in this paragraph, please
know I am not criticizing anyone, but just illustrating the dilemma. Over the last several
months, whether it be the HRWF or the Republican Central Committee, we have had the
same few people doing the majority of work. We/they are burned out and tired. We do not
win elections without teamwork, people working shoulder to shoulder, sacrifcing time and
energy for the greater good. This means anyone within the reach of this newsletter. My
phone number is listed in this newsletter. Please give me a call at your earliest convenience
and come on board. Its only for a short season. Remember: Theres unity in community,
and thats who and what we are!

STATE NEWS
A recent Field poll found that one in four California voters say they pay
little attention to news about government and politics. About 40 percent
follow political news Most of the time.About one third said, Some of the
time.About one fourth said, Only now and thenor Hardly at all. This
number is up from 20 percent in 1999, 16 percent in 1979
(http://sandiegofreepress.org/2014/08/mid-summer-political-follies-california-style/#.U-mJP41dU8s).
According to the state controller, Californias improving budget
outlook has continued into the new fscal year, with revenue last month (July
2014) beating estimates by about $232 million, or 4.5 percent. Revenue from
income, corporate and sales taxes all beat expectations in July, the frst of the
2014-15 budget year, the controller said. The report comes after the state
general fund ended the last fscal year in the black for the frst time since
2007 (http://www.sacbee.com/capitol-alert/).
LOCAL NEWS
Lobbyists have launched an efort to stop a bill that would make CA
the frst state to outlaw single-use plastic grocery bags, delaying a key vote
and setting up one of the fercest legislative battles of the year. If signed into
law, beginning July 1, 2015, this bill would prohibit the use of single-use
plastic bags in grocery stores and pharmacies. It would apply to liquor and
convenience stores a year later. Customers would be required to bring their
own shopping bags in order to avoid a ten-cent charge for paper bags. Arcata
currently has its own ban on plastic bags, as does Murphys in Trinidad.
(Times-Standard 8/22/12)
The Postal Service is planning on closing its Eureka mail-processing
center and move it to Medford, OR, beginning in Jan, 2015. Congressmen
Jared Hufman and Mike Thompson contend that this move will result in the
loss of hundreds of postal staf workers. Another downside would be that
Eureka and surrounding areas will face a 2-3 day delivery for First Class Mail
instead of the current 1-3 day standard. U.S. Postal Service issued a
statement refuting Hufman and Thompsons claim (Times-Standard 8/21/14).
NATIONAL NEWS
The Middle East Crisis heats up as ISIS advances in Iraq, slaughtering
Christians, committing genocide against the Yazidi, fnally getting the
attention of reporters with the beheading of U.S. Journalist James Foley.
King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has warned that the West will be the next
target of the jihadists sweeping through Syria and Iraq, and Obama
announces that he doesnt have a plan yetfor dealing with ISIS. Then he
went golfng. Check our website for updated links to coverage of this
horrifc situation. (hrwf-ca.org)
Police ofcers are upset as Indiana becomes the frst state to allow
citizens to shoot law enforcement ofcers. This new law allows residents to
use deadly force against public servants, including law enforcement
ofcers, who unlawfully enter their homes. It was signed by Republican
Governor Mitch Daniels and was adopted after the state Supreme Court
ruled that there was no right to reasonably resist unlawful entry by police
ofcers.The NRA lobbied for the new law, arguing that the court decision
had legalized police to commit unjustifed entries (http://www.allgov-
.com/news/top-stories/idiana-frst-state-to- allow-citizens-to-shoot-law-enforcement-of-
cers?news=844609).
Obama senior advisor Dan Pfeifer announced that the President will
go ahead with a very signifcantexecutive action on immigration after the
summer. There is speculation that this action might trigger impeachment
proceedings against Obama (http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/monitor_break-
fast/2014/0725/Obama-will-take-executive-action-on-immigr ation-after-summer-adviser-says).
In regard to the Afordable Care Act, the biggest question in
fnding out whether those who need it get health insurance coverage may
be which political party runs the state. The 10 states with the highest
uninsured rates in the country, Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, Louisi-
ana, Montana, Arizona, Oklahoma, Alaska, and New Mexico, are all run by
Republican governors or legislatures or both, and have all refused to accept
the expansion of Medicaid and have declined to participate in the state
exchanges (http://www.allgov.com/news/top-stories/10-states-with-high est-uni-
sured-rates-are-all-run-by-republicans-140811?news=853937).
