Congressman Jerry Lewis’ $30,000 Portrait

“The Minority Maker,” as the Wall Street Journal dubbed him in a 2006 story, has been a controversial figure in San Bernardino County since his election to the House of Representatives in 1978.  From the affair with his secretary whom he eventually married after divorcing his wife to an ongoing federal probe, this moderate politician in conservative clothing has done more to run up the national debt than his Democratic counterparts in the adjoining district, George Brown and Joe Baca, combined.

Currently hailing from the Republican old money city of Redlands, Congressman Jerry Lewis has pulled the wool over many an eye with his “conservative” mantra but his voting record on fiscal matters has exposed his true agenda.  As a member and former chair of the powerful House Appropriations Committee, Lewis has become known as Capitol Hill’s King of Payoffs.

1)  Today I joined dozens of American Patriots outside of Joe Baca’s office showing our support for Arizona’s law 1070.  The fact that 1 activist judge can overthrow the will of the people shows the need for major judicial reform!!  Our Founding Father’s never wanted the Judicial Branch to legislate from the Bench.  And for Judge Bolton to even pretend that Arizona’s law is unconstitutional gives evidence as to why the Founders believed that Congress should have the power of impeachment over judges who obviously are trampling on the will of the people.

Upcoming Events: The places you need to be

Joe Baca Saturday

Over the last month there has been several indicators that big Joe Baca is scared of Scott and ultimately the wrath of you the voters.

1. Joe responded to a letter Scott wrote criticizing Baca’s diatribe on how great Obama care will be for America. Generally, incumbents do not respond to no name, no money challengers like this unless they are concerned about that persons chances of defeating them.

2. Joe Baca has sent out some campaign volunteers to walk precincts in San Bernardino. While Joe generally walks precincts in a general election, this is the first time he has ever walked precincts in a uncontested primary.

3. Joe Baca’s popularity with the DNC has never been great (remember the whole Sanchez whore comment) and with this year looking like a tough fight for the DNC, the likelihood of the DNC riding in to save him, who they do not like when they desperately need to save people in the party they do like, is not very good.

4. Baca has been consistently criticized by people in letters to the editor in both the Sun and the Press Enterprise for the last several weeks for his views on illegal immigration, cap and trade, and health care. Continue reading →

REPEALING ANTITRUST EXEMPTIONS FOR HEALTH INSURERS

Dear Friend:

Last week, I joined my colleagues in a bipartisan effort in the House of Representatives to support legislation that will create greater competition in the health insurance market, and end the unfair antitrust advantage that health insurers have relied on to exorbitantly raise premium rates.  H.R. 4626, the Health Insurance Industry Fair Competition Act, was approved by the House with a 406 to 19 vote.

The passage of this legislation is an important victory for hard working American families.  For too long the health insurance industry has been allowed to play by a different set of rules.  By repealing the blanket antitrust exemption given to insurance companies, this bill restores competition and transparency to the health market.

SUPPORTING RELIEF EFFORTS IN HAITI

Dear Friend:

Last month, I joined my colleagues in the House of Representatives in co-sponsoring and passing legislation that will encourage more charitable contributions to Haiti, by changing current law to speed up tax deductions.  The bill, H.R. 4462, was unanimously approved by the House.

With over 230,000 deaths and close to a million people left homeless, the people of Haiti need any and all help they can receive. While this bill marks a small change in tax law, it is an important step to encourage more immediate charitable contributions to our suffering neighbors in Haiti.  Now all charitable contributions made to Continue reading →

Pamela Zander: Campaign to Replace Joe Baca

Good Afternoon,

I am running for the 43rd Dist. (Baca’s Seat) and would love to get your support.

As a strong Republican, I believe our Constitutional Principles, are being threatened by the factions of a Socialist mind and trying to bring balance to a divided House is difficult; however, with conviction of values fixed deep within my soul, I have been “on a mission”, to exalt this position, as set forth by the Oath everyone takes when signing in for the Office.

Why am I interested in such an office, you might ask?

1. The convergence of interest and morality, has brought an enormous disadvantage to Congress, as our Economic Infrastructure wanes in the balance of a once, wealthy nation.

2. The moral and virtuous framework of our freedoms with respect to liberty, justice and the over-all respect of property seems to be by the demand of the current administration and not by the Bill of Rights, Constitution, and the Declaration of Independence.

3. I would like to implement the ethical traditions of our Constitution, which once was the driving force of “EXCELLENCE” in the US. Continue reading →
