Cowboys and the Tea Party political movement have a lot on common. Both believe in individual responsibility; judging a man by his actions not words; and, both are disgusted with government intrusions into our lives and particularly our God given rights.

Open Borders Obama Not Helping Unemployed American Workers
We all know the reason Obama does not want to enforce immigration laws is that he and the Democratic party want more voters. The majority of Hispanics, who are the majority of immigrants both legal and illegal, vote their pocket book rather their principles - so do alot of Americans. Shame on them all, Shame on Obama.

Culture Crisis or Health Care Crisis?
I received this via e-mail a few hours ago. Reportedly it is a letter from a Medical Doctor to President Obama. Whether or not it WAS written an MD, the points are valid. We are perpetuating a culture not just of irresponsibility but of a belief that others will be responsible for us,...our welfare checks, our medical care,..in short everything. No more is this evident is the proposed Government take over of Health Care.
Dear Mr. President:
During my shift in the Emergency Room last night, I had the pleasure of evaluating a patient whose smile revealed an expensive shiny gold tooth, whose body was adorned with a wide assortment of elaborate and costly tattoos, who wore
a very expensive brand of tennis shoes and who chatted on a new cellular telephone equipped with a popular R&B ringtone. While glancing over her patient chart, I happened to notice that her payer status was listed as "Medicaid"!
During my examination of her, the patient informed me that she smokes more than one costly pack of cigarettes every day and somehow still has money to buy pretzels and beer.
And, you and our Congress expect me to pay for this woman's health care? I contend that our nation's "health care crisis" is not the result of shortage of quality hospitals, doctors or nurses. Rather, it is the result of a "crisis of culture",
a culture in which it is perfectly acceptable to spend money on luxuries and vices while refusing to take care of one's self or, heaven forbid, purchase health insurance.
It is a culture based in the irresponsible credo that "I can do whatever I want to because someone else will always take care of me". Once you fix this "culture crisis" that rewards irresponsibility and dependency, you'll be amazed at how quickly our nation's health care difficulties will disappear.
Respectfully,

Cowboy Logic for the Day
"Careful as a Naked Man Climbing a Bob Wire Fence"
This pertains to Democrats trying to ram Health Care and higher taxes down the throats of the American people. The naked man is the group of Democrats up for re-election this year and the Bob Wire fence is the American voters who are going to tear a chunk out of their collectives butts as the Democrats continue their Taxation without Representation garbage. Leading the "Anti-Taxation Without Representation" movement is the Tea Party. Republicans take heed,....the American people will not take anymore of the tax and deficit spending policy which have been the norm for both parties the past nine years.
