Senator Jim Bunning holds very successful fundraiser

It was a pleasure to attend the fundraiser yesterday for Campbell County's very own Senator Jim Bunning. The event was held at the home of John Mocker, long time friend and supporter of Senator Bunning, and the special guest was fellow hall of famer Tommy Lasorda.

The event was completely packed and Senator Bunning and Tommy Lasorda gave fantastic speeches. I would have never thought that Tommy Lasorda was such a funny guy, but he had everyone in stitches. It was great to see so many Campbell County Republican supporters at the event, and I'm sure we will all work very hard next year to send Senator Bunning back to Washington to continue his fight to protect our country and our way of life.

Bunning Speaks Out on Massive Government Spending

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- U.S. Senator Jim Bunning (R-KY) today issued the following statement in regards to the passage of the so called “American Recovery and Investment Act” which passed the House of Representatives last night and did not garner any Republican support.

“This is not a stimulus package, but a massive government spending bill that my grandchildren and great grandchildren will have to pay for,” said Bunning. “This bill will cost $350 billion over the next ten years just in interest alone. If President Obama, Speaker Pelosi, and Majority Leader Reid wanted to really stimulate the economy they would permanently cut taxes on individuals, investment, and businesses. There is a disconnect between the Obama administration and Congress. While President Obama is preaching bipartisanship, the House and Senate Democrats are practicing partisanship.”

This unfortunately isn't the first time that Lt. Governor Dan Mongiardo has shown bad judgement. No, this isn't a picture of the proud father at his Daughter's wedding. Keep in mind, when their relationship began, he was a 44 year old man and she was a 19 year old fresh out of high school.

So how do you define "inappropriate" ?

In a move that sounds like a prelude to thought crimes or maybe a gradeschool version of the fairness doctorine but certainly sounds like something out of George Orwell's 1984,


Mason school officials said they are taking a proactive educational approach in advance of next week's planned Inauguration Day activities.

"Inappropriate comments that may make other students, staff or families feel unwelcome or uncomfortable in school or on the bus will not be tolerated," Superintendent Kevin Bright said in an e-mail sent to parents Monday, Jan. 12.
