 ▪ Mother's Day Message from Ann Romney - in case you missed it.
To celebrate Mother’s Day, Tagg, Matt, Josh, Ben, and Craig Romney decided to pay tribute to their mom by sharing some of their favorite memories of her. Happy Mother's Day!

On Mother's Day, Mitt always brings me lilacs, a tradition he started the year I became a mother.
... When our home is filled with their fragrance, it reminds me of so many things, and stirs so many emotions. I think of my five sons and the women they married, whom I love as if I had raised them.
It wasn't easy raising five boys. To put it mildly, they had a way of laying their emotions and their disputes on the table. They were a handful - and sometimes I just hoped to return home and find our house still intact.
But after watching this short video that my sons put together for me for Mother's Day, you'll see how my rowdy little boys turned into sweet, wonderful men.
On this day, I always remember my mother. I remember she was a wonderful cook. I remember how much she loved my dad. Ours was a loving home, where I knew the light was always on. I wish I could tell her again how much I love her.
Cherish your mothers. The ones who wiped your tears, who attended all those ball games or ballet recitals. The ones who believed in you, even when nobody else did, even when maybe you didn't believe in yourself.
Women wear many hats in their lives. Daughter, sister, student, breadwinner. But no matter where we are or what we're doing, one hat that moms never take off is the crown of motherhood.
There is no crown more glorious.
Happy Mother's Day.

The cover promotes the story by Andrew Sullivan, who admitted on his Daily Beast blog and on this weekend’s “The Chris Matthews Show” that the announcement was a very emotional one for him. |

Bad News for the Obama People!
AMERICA DOES NOT WANT ANY MORE OF OBAMA -
It does appear that a Conservative revolution is going on! |
1. The Tea Party is alive and kicking and ready to make 2012 look just like 2010. Yesterday was the
continuation of the 2010 midterm elections.
2. Longtime GOP Sen. Lugar Loses Primary Battle to Tea Party Challenger and Indiana state
treasurer Richard Mourdock for the seat he has held since 1977. Looks like a movement is on
to remove RINOS from Congress as well as liberal Democrats.

 New on Facebook: Rush Babes for America
Rush Babes for America, also known as the National Organization for Rush Babes, is a Facebook page dedicated to the millions of conservative women who know what they believe in: family, American values, and not being told by faux feminist groups how to think. We've been working on the page for a while, and today is the launch. And here's the reason. As you know, some day (I forget the exact date) later this month the feminazis are gonna be working with Media Matters for America kicking off some giant program.
So you go to Facebook.com/RushBabesforAmerica, and if you like the page, you're in. That's all you gotta do, click on "like it" and you are in. Read more of Rush's transcript of May 8.

STUPID IN
AMERICA -
How we Cheat
our Kids
by John Stossel
STUPID IN
AMERICA,
How we Cheat
our Kids
-- on
Fox News,
May 6, 2012
His solution
-- “Create
competition,
and allow
for choice.”
Simple and
to the
point.
“Stupid in
America” was
originally
aired in
January of
2006 on
ABC’s 20/20
and sheds
light on the
failures of
the American
education
system. It
was
astonishing
what Mr.
Stossel and
the people
at 20/20
discovered.
As a
retired
high school
teacher, I
can
personally
vouch for
some of the
blatant
misuse of
our tax
money which
pays for
many very
incompetent
teachers and
administrators
-- and
cheats our
students.
Yes, there
are good
teachers,
but in many
systems
where
teacher
unions have
a
stranglehold
on
education,
it is very
true. Stossel
places
emphasis on
the positive
results of
charter
schools and
many private
schools
where
incompetent
teachers
can be
fired
and tenure
is not
almighty.

Congressman Tom Graves greets his eager constituents of Hall County and delivers a very informative update of recent happenings in Congress. His presentation covered the topics of Budget, Appropriations and Transportation. He said that the GA General Assembly had said it well with their emphasis on sending many items back to the states to be handled including Education and Transportation. Many really good questions were presented to the Congressman. Local constituents were concerned about the Internet Security Vote and the many dangers of cyber attacks which seem to be coming primarily from Russia and China.
3. One local resident presented his case against the Fair Tax, which is rarely stated in this area.
4 - 7. Scenes from around the room.
Many thanks to Congressman Tom Graves for standing strong against the Democrats, rinos, lobbyists, and other temptations surrounding Congress. We in the new 9th District will miss him as our Representative, but we look forward to sending our Martha Zoller to D.C. to stand strong with Congressman Graves. |

"Compared to

Updated:
Sunday, May

Former presidential candidate Newt Gingrich said Sunday that there are no negotiations between himself and presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney over Gingrich’s role at the Republican National Convention or anything else. Gingrich, speaking on CNN’s State of the Union, said he would “love help” paying off his campaign’s debt, which was $4.3 million at the end of March. He said he would speak at the convention, if asked. But, Gingrich said, “There’s no negotiation.”“What I want Mitt Romney to do is help us achieve a victory in the Senate, House, and presidency,” Gingrich said. Read more

What Newt
Gingrich Can
Do for Mitt
Romney
U.S. News
May 3, 201
Gingrich has
said
he is eager
to return to
the campaign
trail—not as
a candidate
but as a
surrogate
for Romney.
That's why
Romney and
the
Republican
National
Committee
"have
offered to
be helpful"
in retiring
his campaign
debt. They
know he is a
powerful
speaker with
a bevy of
ideas and a
loyal
following
who could
help Romney
break
through with
constituencies
where the
candidate
doesn't
currently
have a
strong
foothold.
