The 3rd District's Forgotten Men....
The article left out SSgt. Daniel Gilyeat, John Rysavy and Thomas Scherer who are all announced candidates. It seems because Lightner is the only candidate advertising, then according to the Sun Newspapers, she is the only candidate. The article also mentions possible candidates former State Sen. Nick Jordan, who lost to Moore in 2008; State Rep. Pat Colloton, R-Leawood; and State Rep. Kevin Yoder, R-Overland Park none of whom say they are even considering a run at this time.
Dan Gilyeat made his own headlines this week on Resisnet.com and American Liberty Republic's blog when a Kansas City, KS, Hispanic Leader, as yet unnamed, told a reporter that he had a conversation which he recorded with Congressman Dennis Moore in which Moore reportedly said "he had $7 million dollars for his campaign" and that "he could not believe that a naturalized citizen could support 'White Trash' over him [Moore.]"
Is Gilyeat a candidate that Moore is afraid of? Gilyeat certainly isn't white trash. He is a Father of seven and Husband. He is an Iraq War Veteran and a wounded Marine who lost a leg on his second tour of duty in Iraq. He is a respected member of his community who works tirelessly for Wounded Warrior Foundations, counsels wounded vets and their families about the difficulties and knowledge of returning to a normal productive life after catastrophic injuries.
John Rysavy is a respected Businessman, a former North Dakota Air National Gaurdsman, works tirelessly for his church and community. He is a Husband and the Father of six.
Thomas Scherer is a single father and community activist and has been involved in previous elections as a candidate.
A recent 3rd District Republican Newsletter lists all registered Candidates, Dan Gilyeat, Patricia Lihtner, John Rysavy and Thomas Scherer and has a biography of each one. I think it's about time someone called out Sun Publications for it's shoddy reporting. The voters of the 3rd District need to have all the information on candidates and issues at their disposal and not just Steve Roses' wishful thinking.

Obama's Henchwoman...
Homeland Security Chief Janet Napolitano is telling Sheriff Joe Arpaio to stop arresting illegals. Could this be something left over from Ms. Napolitano's feud with the good sheriff when she was the Governor of Arizona?
The sheriff’s office is being investigated by the Department of Justice and other Federal agencies on accusations of racial profiling during the operation of Sheriff Joe's crime suppression operations which the Justice Department is calling racial profiling.
Sheriff Arpaio says "It's all Politics".
In one of his most famous dust-ups with the Government, Arpaio set up a tent city as an extension of the Maricopa County Jail. It was the Sheriff's solution for over-crowding without having to build a new jail. He saved taxpayers over $70m with that action. The prisoners complained about the inhumane conditions of excessive heat inside the tents to which Arpaio replied: "It's 120 degrees in Iraq and our soldiers are living in tents and they didn't commit any crimes!, so shut your mouths!"
In an often e-mailed piece from the Associated press Arpaio has racked up some pretty impressive statistics:
Makes one wonder why Secretary Napolitano doesn't like the good Sheriff's policies. Maybe [sic] she's playing for the other side of the Law. Homeland Security and the Obama Administration are set to strip Joe Arpaio of his main tool for dealing with illegal immigration. Rule 287g which allows for illegals to be detained for traffic violations. Tieing the hands of the good Sheriff seems to be the Democrats favorite sport in Arizona.He has jail meals down to 40 cents a serving and charges the inmates for them.
He stopped smoking and porno magazines in the jails. Took away their weights. Cut off all but "G" movies.
He started chain gangs so the inmates could do free work on county and city projects.
Then he started chain gangs for women so he wouldn't get sued for discrimination.
He took away cable TV until he found out there was a federal court order that required cable TV for jails. So he hooked up the cable TV again only let in the Disney channel and the weather channel.
When asked why the weather channel he replied, so they will know how hot it's gonna be while they are working on my chain gangs.
He cut off coffee since it has zero nutritional value.
When the inmates complained, he told them, "This isn't the Ritz/Carlton. If you don't like it, don't come back."
He bought Newt Gingrich' lecture series on videotape that he pipes into the jails.
When asked by a reporter if he had any lecture series by a Democrat, he replied that a democratic lecture series might explain why a lot of the inmates were in his jails in the first place.
Hopefully, Sheriff Joe will find away around this restriction too. Obama and Henchwoman Napolitano are doing their best to tie the good Sheriff's hands. Seems they are more concerned for the illegals than they are for the American people.
I say we should support Sheriff Joe Arpaio and other's like him. This Country would definitely be a better place if this brand of justice was practiced more often. You go Joe!

We must stop this insanity before we loose America...
We know this is an ad for a website but it is also a stark reminder of what this Country stands to loose if we don't reign in spending. Health Care with the Public Option will drive the final stake through the heart of this Republic.
We need to work harder than ever to stop this madness. There are many other ways to deal with this problem that don't involve institutionation of Health Care.
