Cartel Alive, Thriving, and Growing in Portland & Oregon

So far this year, drug cops in Oregon have intercepted $1,071,727 in cash from 105 drug-related parcels. Last year, they seized $524,915 in 56 packages. This is suppose to double every year even after Marijuana becomes available leagally.

How Much More In State, Property, County, & City Taxes Do You Want To Pay?

This week's email comes as Novick and Hales take a breather from their barnstorming tour of town halls and public meetings to push for more street maintenance. According to PBOT's 2014-15 budget, just $11.3 million of the estimated $102.8 million in discretionary money in the agency's coffers will go to direct pavement maintenance. The city, Novick said, pays more for other key maintenance work such as traffic control, than on physical pavement. Younger Oregonians are persistently experiencing the highest levels of joblessness. Oregonians’ household net worth has also declined more than 40 percent during the past seven years. Reduced equity in personal residences, diminished savings and increased personal debt are the leading causes for the sharp decline in net worth. In my opinion, Oregon’s economy will not recover until any number of failed political polices are dramatically reversed. The outcome of the recent state election virtually ensures that those changes will not be made in the next four years.

What happens when Radicals control Government?

This short film does a terrific service. Examine how past and current Governors and Legislatures in the State of Oregon have systematically destroyed industry, transportation, education, land use.. virtually every fabric of society. Why do Oregonians insist that we destroy our living standard by giving these radicals the power to destroy?

Five things to know about Oregon's outdoor smoking ban!!

The saga of the outdoor smoking ban at Oregon state parks is about to wrap up.
During the past year and a half, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department has studied two rules that restrict how smokers of tobacco products can use the state's 286 parks along with all 362 miles of Oregon Coast beach.
Few issues have been as polarizing for the department. Among detractors, the department has been called everything from a nanny-state enforcer to a rogue branch of tyrannical government on par with Nazis. Among supporters, the department is taking logical steps to ban a toxic poison with no place on our public lands.

A Chicken In Every Pot, and a Car In Every Garage but who Pays??

Taylor has won more than 60 percent of the vote in both counties against Republican Tim McMenamin, in the heavily Democratic district. Taylor, who has two children enrolled in the Portland Public School system, is focused on bettering public schools and hopes to help restore a full school year. She also wants to increase workforce training and infrastructure so that Oregon businesses are better equipped to compete with businesses in other states. Additionally, she’s concerned with providing in-home care for seniors and protecting the environment.

Thanks to all those who volunteered their time and donated to Our Campaign.

I will be writing a longer essay on my thoughts for the future and the Republican Party and publishing it soon. In the meantime, here's some thoughts from an Oregon journalist I have always admired: With the opposition reduced, next year the legislature will complete the program of driving up fuel costs in order to save the world from getting warmer, and it will likely pass laws to get more people automatically registered as voters even though they show no inclination to register on their own. Also coming in 2015: more restrictions on the constitutional rights of gun owners.

Willamette Week Endorses My Opponent Read Her Statement Can't This Up!

"When asked this time about tax reform, for example, Taylor wasn’t prepared to talk in any depth about what she might prefer, except to say a more progressive system would be better. Of all the issues Oregon faces—taxes, mental health care, school reform, to name a few—she says her absolutely No. 1 issue is e-cigarettes. She wants to pass laws against minors buying e-cigs and how they can be marketed. That’s a pretty narrow agenda".

Vote 411 Guide Of the many tax suggestions would you support and why?

Timothy E McMenamin:
The way that Obamacare collects the penalty for not having insurance is a 5th Amendment violation, too -- but that one hasn't hit the court system yet. I don't think the subsidy issue will be enough, but if everyone can get out of paying the penalty by asserting their 5th amendment rights, then I think that may well be the final nail.

Oregonians Voter Guide What's More Important Ban E-Cigs or Jobs

Don't Let Your Vote Go To Waste: Vote Tim McMenamin For State Representative HD 41:
If you could introduce one bill in the 2015 legislative session that would become law, what would it be and why should Oregonians support it? Timothy E McMenamin: Repeal SB 100 passed in 1973. This would streamline industrial land use laws and restrict excessive regulations. Oregons Land Conservation and Developement Commission (LCDC) is an endless quagmire for Oregon cities, who simply can't jump through the hoops necessary to expand their Urban Growth Boundries (UGB). In the last decade efforts by five cities plus Metro to expand their UGB's have failed, having been rejected by either LCDC or the Oregon appellate courts. We need to remove these barriers to economic developement and job growth.

Why are our roads so bad?

Why is our economy constantly lagging behind the rest of the nation? Why do our kids have to leave the state to find jobs? "Beyond The Oregon Myth" is a documentary that asks these questions and dissects some of the more mythical and utopian views of Oregon held by our friends on the east coast. We love our state but we know what is really going on here and we know we deserve better.

The no-brainer bunch Don't let You Vote Be Taken For Granted!!

Tim McMenamin has Unparralled name recognition along with a hard work ethic. Tim has been out in House District 41 for four years now, but his opponent has yet to show any commitment to the District. Rather than pretending an endorsement would make the slightest bit of difference in such races, we'll simply point out the obvious: The candidates belonging to the party with the huge registration advantage are going to win. This would be the case even if a disadvantaged candidate had unparalleled name recognition, as Timothy McMenamin does in Portland's House District 41. He'll still be beaten by Democratic candidate Kathleen Taylor, thanks to her party's nearly three-to-one registration advantage. That's to bad. Tim has worked hard for his District and this writer thinks he deserves to win.
