		<title>The War &#8211; Go Big or go home?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<p>In the article:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2009-12-04/the-new-anti-war-right/" target="_blank">http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2009-12-04/the-new-anti-war-right/</a></p>
<p>&#8220;The New Anti-War Right&#8221;, by Reihan Salam</p>
<p>Rep. Jason Chaffetz is quoted.</p>
<p>If you read what Rep. Chaffetz said:</p>
<p><a href="http://chaffetz.house.gov/2009/11/afghanistan-mr-president-my-recommendations.shtml" target="_blank">http://chaffetz.house.gov/2009/11/afghanistan-mr-president-my-recommendations.shtml</a></p>
<p>The question is do we have a new &#8220;anti-war right&#8221; or do we have a bunch of conservatives that want to avoid war, and if required, go to win?</p>
<p>My favorite quote from Chaffetz:</p>
<p><span style="font-family: &#34;Arial&#34;,&#34;sans-serif&#38;quot&#038;quot"><span style="font-size: small"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">&#8220;Mr. President, go big or go home</span></strong>.<span> </span>Our Soldiers, Airmen, Sailors and Marines are trained to fight and WIN wars. They are the best trained and equipped fighting force in the world.<span> </span>But we’ve tied their hands.<span> </span>The American people want us to give our troops everything they need to win so they can come home.<span> </span>In short, give them everything they need or bring the troops home.&#8221;</span></span></p>
<p>the other key point I like is this:</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;line-height: 150%;font-family: &#34;Arial&#34;,&#34;sans-serif&#38;quot&#038;quot">&#8220;If our mission in Afghanistan is simply to protect the populace and build the nation, then I believe the time has come to bring our troops home.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>While President Obama is Commander-in-chief, (until we get smart enough and vote him out in 2012), and we should be supportive of our troops in harms way, I hope more people will think twice as to the direction the President is going.</p>

		<title>Tired of Senator Bob Bennett</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<p>By the way, A recent survey <a href="http://www.deseretnews.com/article/705348498/Utahns-growing-tired-of-Bennett.html" target="_blank">Poll</a> in Utah says almost nothing, but one thing, the average adult in Utah doesn’t want Bob Bennett going back to Washington D.C. and they are still looking to which candidate they want.</p>
<p>(Many GOP delegates are lining up behind Cherilyn Eagar, but the GOP delegates weren&#8217;t targeted)</p>
<p>The Poll didn’t ask the<br />
likely GOP delegates, (which would have made the most sense)<br />
or<br />
likely GOP closed primary voters, (which might make some sense)<br />
or even<br />
likely general election voters, (which would have been helpful.)</p>
<p>But it did ask if we want him going back to Washington and we said No. Too bad that part was just a survey poll. March 23, and May 8th are the critical dates to Boot the Bennett out. (Caucus and Convention)</p>

		<title>Tea Party vs. GOP incumbent Senator Bob Bennett</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<p>I found this article interesting:</p>
<p><a href="http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/67429-challengers-exit-could-clear-way-for-tea-party-vs-bennett" target="_blank">http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/67429-challengers-exit-could-clear-way-for-tea-party-vs-bennett</a></p>
<p>&#8220;A well-placed Utah GOP source said the conservative movement could really have an impact in the state, especially if the Tea Party movement, the 9/12ers and the Patrick Henry Caucus can settle on one candidate.&#8221;</p>
<p><span class="comment-body">The article was about the Tea Parties vs US Senator Bob Bennett (Utah), and as of today, only one current candidate for US Senate from Utah has been speaking at them, Cherilyn Eagar.</span></p>
<p>The point that Senator Bob Bennett is in trouble was obvious to anyone seeing him spend money on TV ads over a year prior to Utah&#8217;s caucus meetings and close to two years prior to general elections, if he can even make it that far.</p>
<p><span class="comment-body">Cherilyn Eagar is the only current GOP candidate to challenge Senator Bennett that had both filed with the FEC and had a booth at the State GOP Convention in June 2009. </span></p>
<p>Bennett spent money hand-over-fist at that event and still received one of the coolest receptions by state GOP Delegates.</p>
<p><span class="comment-body">Cherilyn Eagar is also the only US Senate candidate that has spoken at the most of and including last large 9.12 and Tea Party rallies in Utah (with many thousands attending) and is supported by many of the 9.12 and Tea Party leaders in Utah. </span></p>
<p><span class="comment-body">(Obviously one, Mr. Kirkham hasn&#8217;t decided yet). I am amazed that this article doesn&#8217;t even mention Cherilyn Eagar running for US Senate, as she also beat Senator Bennett in a straw poll for Utah County GOP.</span></p>
<p>The reason why she isn&#8217;t mentioned? Perhaps she is his biggest threat.</p>
<p><span><span style="font-family: &#34;Times New Roman&#34;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;font-size: 7pt;line-height: normal"> </span></span>Cherilyn Eagar is endorsed by the First Lady of the Conservative Movement, Phyllis Schlafly and the Eagle Forum PAC.</p>
<p><span><span style="font-family: &#34;Times New Roman&#34;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;font-size: 7pt;line-height: normal"> </span></span>She is one of 20 candidates nationally supported by The Good Egg Club, a new fund supporting candidates such as Chuck DeVore (CA) and Pat Toomey (PA).</p>
<p>Cherilyn Eagar is the only candidate, or hopeful candidate, who has had the life-long, trusted conservative record and is the best prepared and knowledgeable of the candidates.</p>
<p>As widely quoted, In March of this year Senator Bob Bennett was rated one of the ten most liberal Republicans in the Senate by Human Events based on the American Conservative Union Ratings for 2008. Bennett paying money to convince delegates he is conservative isn&#8217;t working.</p>
<p>The real interesting thing was a recent poll, the local Fox News states more than 30% of insider republicans do not expect Senator Bennett to even make it out of state GOP convention next May.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fox13now.com/videobeta/watch/?watch=304d9243-2399-435e-b153-de19507583eb" target="_blank">http://www.fox13now.com/videobeta/watch/?watch=304d9243-2399-435e-b153-de19507583eb</a></p>
<p>That almost (9 votes short) happened to former Rep. Chris Cannon last year, and he was still beat in the primary.</p>
<p>Perhaps Cherilyn&#8217;s comments on Senator Bennett&#8217;s record isn&#8217;t enough.</p>
