Greg outlines strategic faults in the president's economic plan. He fears a currency collapse is on the horizon unless a return to fiscal conservatism is implemented and interest rates are permitted to find their natural level -- without government manipulation.
Greg visits with former congressman JD Hayworth at the Capitol. Conservative Hayworth is expected to challenge moderate McCain in the Arizona senate primary later this year.
Dear Republican FriendsThe decision to enter a political race is never an easy one. Constraints -- family, financial, philosophical -- abound and obstacles, especially in challenging an incumbent, are high. Yet today I am proud and eager to come before you and seek your support in my effort to win the 12th District Congressional seat currently held by liberal Mel Watt. Many of you know me and have supported my effort in the past. While my support for our military and the need for a tougher stance against illegal immigration has not wavered, my focus during this campaign will be on our rapidly collapsing economy and the need for a return to the fiscal conservatism that once permitted our nation to drive the world's economic engine. Our country is being systematically looted by artificially low interest rates, endless government bailouts and a path toward socialism that strangles the initiative and prosperity of small business. Without small business the only route to new job creation is larger government -- which suits the president and his cronies just fine. "Grow government and our power by killing small business," is their mantra. Meanwhile unemployment misery grows amongst our friends and neighbors. If you are a conservative Republican you know exactly what I'm talking about. If not, well, I'm certain the other guy appreciates your vote. Having run a congressional race before and enjoyed financial support from sitting Members of the House, I understand what it takes to deliver a strong message in a tough district. Combined with my capacity to outwork any opponent on the ground at the grassroots level, I bring superior balance to the winning equation necessary to reap victory in November. Thank you once again for your support and may God continue to bless America. Greg Dority 17/02/10 |
