Dear Fellow American,

Thank you for joining with us in our national petition to repeal Obamacare.

Republican leaders in the House are planning to vote to repeal Obamacare on Wednesday.

Dick Morris, the famous Fox News commentator and author, is urging Americans to sign the petition below to repeal Obamacare once and for all.

It is vitally important you forward this email to your friends and family to sign this petition as Congress takes this historic vote!

This is a critical time in our nation’s history, as Obamacare will . . .

• Increase our budget by $1 trillion (at least!)
• Cut Medicare benefits for senior citizens by $500 billion
• Send private insurance premiums sky high
• Set the groundwork for healthcare rationing for the elderly
• Cost you an additional $500 billion in taxes

This is our last chance to STOP Obamacare in its tracks.

The House vote is just the first step, as Dick Morris states, and the battle to fully repeal and defund Obamacare will be fought over the coming months.

That is why it is critically important you to get as many friends to sign the petition toFULLY REPEAL OBAMACARE.

Your representatives need to know where you stand on this important issue.

Dick Morris says, “It’s absolutely critical we repeal and defund Obamacare. Sign the Newsmax petition today and send a powerful message to Congress they won’t forget!”

Hundreds of thousands have already signed this important petition.

Let your voice be heard.

Russian reporter claims Tucson shootings the result of American freedom

You know what this country needs after a week of insanity on display in Tucson and insanity on display in the American media?  We need someone with whom we can all be angry — a handy whipping post to berate and mock.  Ladies and gentlemen, I give you our figure of unity … Russian reporter Andrei Sitov from TASS, assigned to the White House press corps, courtesy of Ann Compton http://hotair.com/archives/2011/01/14/russian-reporter-claims-tucson-shootings-the-result-of-american-freedom/

Obamanomics?

The Democrat-controlled General Assembly of Illinois (Obama State) voted to temporarily raise personal income taxes 66 percent, from 3 percent to 5 percent. Corporate rates will rise, too — from 4.8 percent to 7 percent — when Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn signs the measure.

Obama's State Dept. Removes Mother, Father From Passports

In what seems to be a diplomatic effort at extreme political correctness and a nod to gay rights groups, the Obama administration is removing the words “mother” and “father” from U.S. passport applications and replacing them with “gender neutral” terminology. Mom and dad will now be referred to rather coldly as “parent one” and “parent two.”

Conservative Christian groups are outraged over the decision.

“Only in the topsy-turvy world of left-wing political correctness could it be considered an ‘improvement’ for a birth-related document to provide less information about the circumstances of that birth,” Family Research Council president Tony Perkins wrote in a statement to Fox News Radio. “This is clearly designed to advance the causes of same-sex ‘marriage’ and homosexual parenting without statutory authority, and violates the spirit if not the letter of the Defense of Marriage Act.”

“The words in the old form were ‘mother’ and ‘father,’” Brenda Sprague, deputy assistant Secretary of State for Passport Services, confirmed Fox News. "They are now ‘parent one’ and ‘parent two.’"

A statement on the State Department website noted: “These improvements are being made to provide a gender neutral description of a child’s parents and in recognition of different types of families.” The statement didn't note if it was for child applications only.

The new passport applications, not yet available to the public, will be available online soon. Sprague told Fox the decision to remove the traditional parenting names was not an act of political correctness.

“We find that with changes in medical science and reproductive technology that we are confronting situations now that we would not have anticipated 10 or 15 years ago,” she said.

Gay rights groups are applauding the decision.

“Changing the term mother and father to the more global term of parent allows many different types of families to be able to go and apply for a passport for their child without feeling like the government doesn’t recognize their family,” said Jennifer Chrisler, executive director of Family Equality Council.

Her organization lobbied the government for several years to remove the words from passport applications.

“Our government needs to recognize that the family structure is changing,” Chrisler said. “The best thing that we can do is support people who are raising kids in loving, stable families.”

The new gender-neutral passport application will be rolled out in February.

Arizona Massacre Prompts Political 'Cheap Shots'

When Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords collapsed outside the Safeway in Tucson Saturday morning, felled by a hail of bullets that killed six and wounded another 13 innocent people that had come to see her, some were quick to claim that the carnage was the product not merely of the tortured mind and trigger-happy fingers of the alleged shooter, 22-year-old Jared Lee Loughner.

Rather, many on the American Left said the horror could be traced to the malign influence of American conservatives; members of the Tea Party; right-wing pundits Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck; former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin; and Fox News.

That was the narrative of culpability spun in the immediate aftermath of the shootings by some leading liberal commentators and Democratic politicians -- despite warnings from religious leaders, lawyers, academics, ethicists, reporters and historians that such a rush to judgment only further deepens the partisan divide in America, and further poisons its discourse.

House GOP Preparing Major Investigations of Obama Administration

President Barack Obama and the Democrats will face a newly invigorated House Republican leadership this week with sweeping plans for congressional investigations into a wide range of issues.

Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., who will become chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee when the 112th Congress is sworn in Wednesday, told The Washington Post he plans to lead six major investigations in the first three months of the year. That will call for a grueling schedule, since congressional investigations often take months to bear fruit.

On Issa’s list:

• WikiLeaks' release of classified diplomatic cables
• Recalls at the Food and Drug Administration
• The role of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the foreclosure crisis
• The Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission's failure to identify the origins of the meltdown
• Alleged corruption in Afghanistan
