Rick Santorum Sits Down With Glenn Beck

In this part of Rick Santorum's sit down with Glenn Beck he talks about Israel and it's role in the Middle East. From Fox News, Here is Glenn Beck's introduction of Santorum:


GLENN BECK, HOST: Right now, America needs people who are willing to stand up and lead no matter what the blowback may be.
We have only five shows after this. And I am picking carefully what I do on these five shows.
I think this man is as well. Not many politicians have spine. This man does.
I want to introduce you to a man tonight that I think will make a difference. He already has made a difference. You may not know much about him, you may not like his style. You may not like his policies. In the end, I hope you at least walk away with a feeling that I have about him.
He is an honest man.
I don't pick or choose or back any presidential nominees. However, I do think that some of them need to be exposed. Herman Cain, we exposed a couple of weeks ago. I thought he was worth your time to listen to.
He's proved as much to me a few years ago facing a tough election. He was head of the curve on the threat of radical Islam. We have talked about it between us for years -- radical Islam growing in Iran, the Middle East and the increasing pressure being put on Israel.
He knew it wasn't popular in the polls when he was running. The last thing he wanted to talk about was the Middle East. He told me at the time when I said, you know, you should back off of this, because this isn't helping your re-election -- he said he wouldn't be able to face his children if he didn't speak out, even if it meant he lost. He did. But he can sleep at night.
Joining me now is former senator and GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum.







Here is a video of the entire interview.

Republicans Introduce Bill to Eliminate Obama's 39 Czars


                          (Moonbattery)
House Republicans introduced a bill today to eliminate Obama’s 39 czars.
The Hill reported:
A group of House Republicans introduced a bill on Wednesday to rein in the various “czars” in the Obama administration.
Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) and 28 other House Republicans introduced legislation to do away with the informal, paid advisers President Obama has employed over the past two years.
The legislation, which was introduced in the last Congress but was not allowed to advance under Democratic control, would do away with the 39 czars Obama has employed during his administration.
The bill defines a czar as “a head of any task force, council, policy office within the Executive Office of the President, or similar office established by or at the direction of the President” who is appointed to a position that would otherwise require Senate confirmation.

This is great news! These radical czars need to be reined in, big time. I hope that the GOP eliminates the "Czar" position completely or at least adds an amendment which would state that if Czars want to be advisers of the president they must be confirmed by the Senate.

A Plan to Inoculate the Contagious Infection Obamacare

David Catron from The American Spectator has an excellent plan on how to inoculate the contagious infection - Obamacare -  from spreading more than it has infected our lives already.  Did you know before there was RomneyCare in Mass. that there was DukakisCare? Thankfully the GOP halted that by defunding the DukakisCare "reform" debacle.  Hopefully we can do the same with Obamacare.  Rep. John Boehner made the most magnanimous pledge on repealing and replacing the health care law during his interview with Bret Baier saying, 'I'll make sure Obamacare is never implemented'. This is wonderful! He also hinted that he and the newly elected Republican majority in Congress has "a lot of tricks up our sleeves" to follow through on that promise.  You go Boehner!!  Inoculate Obamacare!!

We The People Have Spoken

Yesterday all across the country we the people spoke and loud and clear with our votes and repudiated Obama’s big government policies. There was a tidal wave which ousted Democrats who voted for initiatives that were diametrically opposed to the will of the people. In my state of Pennsylvania we voted in Pat Toomey to the Senate and Tom Corbett as our next governor. There were many great wins across the United States including Marco Rubio in Florida, Kirk who was elected to Obama’s old senate seat in Illinois, Rand Paul in Kentucky, Lt. Col. Allen West in Florida, and Nikki Haley in South Carolina. We ousted quite a few who were past due retiring such as Rep. Dingle, Sen. Feingold, Rep. Grayson, and Rep. Pomeroy. Unfortunately, there were some losses in California, in the land of liberal loons. These people who voted for Boxer and Brown must be enamored with higher taxes, less opportunities, high debt, and high unemployment to elect Jerry Brown and re-elect Ma’am Boxer. It is highly disappointing that Nevadans would vote for Harry Reid who single handedly has destroyed Nevada’s economy. Both the Tea Party and the GOP must now begin working to repair the damage that Obama’s radical policies have caused America. This is a time for hope, for optimism, for there were many constitutional loving Americans who were elected last night who will help this country get back on track. God Bless America!
