Liz Cheney was on the speaking program this morning, and in a “surprise” move brought out her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, to make some closing remarks. The former VP got a rousing reception and a two-minute standing ovation.
“…A welcome like that is almost enough to make me want to run for office again,” said Dick Cheney. “But I’m not gonna do it.”
The former vice president made several references “to passing the torch to a younger generation.” Very Kennedyesque…
Attorney Jay Sekulow was scheduled to introduce former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney at CPAC this morning. However, in a typical CPAC surprise move, Sekulow instead introduced Massachusetts’ brand new Republican Senator Scott Brown instead, who then introduced Gov. Mitt Romney. He was warmly received. It wasn’t the only surprise of the morning…
Florida Senate candidate and conservative grass-roots darling Marco Rubio spurred on the tea party movement Thursday in his highest-profile speaking engagement yet.
Rubio, using the keynote speech kicking off the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, heralded the “greatest political pushback in American political history.”…
“Americans want leaders who will come to Washington, D.C., and stand up to the big government agenda, not be corrupted by it. After all, the United States Senate already has one Arlen Specter,” he added…

Brand new U.S. Senator Scott Brown (R-MA) held a press conference this afternoon, shortly after taking the oath of office as the 41st Republican Senator.
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell delivered a New Year’s Message where he said despite all the challenges America faces, that there are “better days ahead” for America.
We assume he’s referring to the Republicans taking back Congress in 2010…
Today, Rep. Howard P. “Buck” McKeon (R-CA) and Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) introduced a resolution, H. Res. 952, allowing Congressional Medal of Honor recipients to properly display the United States flag on their property at all times.
Recent media reports, including from the Mark Levin Show, uncovered a 90 year old Medal of Honor recipient, Col. Van T. Barfoot, who was ordered by his homeowner association last week to remove a flagpole from his yard, where he raises the American flag faithfully each morning.
“I was appalled to learn that one of our decorated Congressional Medal of Honor veterans was being prevented from proudly displaying the Flag of the United States of America in an honorable way,” said Rep. McKeon. “This reminds me of that famous quote by George Washington: ‘The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive the Veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their country.’ Our service men and women – especially those living with honors and distinction- should be allowed to fly the flag that represents the very freedoms they fought so hard to protect.”
“It’s a sad day when a veteran of three wars is told he cannot fly the American flag on a poll outside of his home,” said Republican Whip Cantor. “Col. Barfoot made countless sacrifices, wore our country’s uniform with honor, and has earned the right to proudly display the American flag. I thank Col. Barfoot for his service and support his patriotism and efforts, as well as those here in the House, to allow him to fly his flag.”

Rep. Pence: “The American people know we can’t borrow and spend and bail our way back to a growing economy. … Republicans have proposals to get our economy moving again, to achieve energy independence and lower the cost of health care.”

It was on the eleventh day, of the eleventh month on the eleventh hour that the First World War ended. Today, however, we reflect upon and celebrate the service of all of our veterans, their families and remember those who still proudly serve.
It is with great admiration and appreciation that I wish to thank all who served to defend our liberties. As you and your families enjoy a holiday together, please join us in remembering America’s fine men and women of the military.
I would also ask that you keep the men and women of Ft. Hood and their families in your prayers as well.
On behalf of the Loughlin family, I would like to extend to you best wishes on this Veteran’s day and do remember, freedom is not free.
Thank you to our veterans and their families, November 11, 2009.
Rep. John J. Loughlin II

Congressman Mike Pence released the following video, entitled “Let Your Voice Be Heard,” urging all Americans to rise up and let their voices be heard in regard to the Pelosi health care plan. He may not be the Second Coming of Ronald Reagan, but in this video, he’s sounding darn close. This is a very, very good video. Share it.
