Pat Meagher brings a wealth of experience and a passion to serve the people in the 41st Congressional District. Pat Meagher is a family man, believes in strong family values and is ethics driven. We need a candidate with the "right stuff" to move our Inland Empire forward. The IE is the Jewel of SoCal. We have everything we need, we just need the right leadership in Congress to address all of the unique issues relative to the many different areas served. The Desert has issues, the Mountains, have issues, the cities and agricultural areas also have many diverse problems that need attention. We have not progressed as much as possible due to the incumbent, who, has been under FBI investigation for years. Its your choice on election day, more of the same or Pat Meagher for Congress in 2010.

Here we are again, 2 years later and deeper in debt. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Do something new this election. Vote for Pat Meagher 41st Congress. Pat will fight for our rights in Congress.

I am of my own personal opinion, that politicians only serve the interest of SELF before SENSE. We need people in office, who are as we the general masses are: Sick and Tired of the infighting, the corruption and the back and forth finger pointing. We need our professionals, to start acting like professionals, and to work together as a team to come up with a solid, uniform, PLAN, that WORKS.  Sad as it is to say, I honestly feel until someone has the balls to come in and CUT what needs to be CUT, and let people whine for it, until we start holding Americans responsible to BE Americans, keeping our businesses IN America, keeping our Tax dollars working FOR the American People, and until we start holding ourselves accountable for acts of kindness, NOTHING will ever CHANGE.

When was the last time, you saw a politician cut his own salary, for being too incompetent as to balance a budget, when companies do it daily and SUCCEED?  When was the last time a politician came up with an idea, presented it well with facts backed up by others, and supported by anyone other than his friends and cronies?  When was the last time, we saw a politician, doing what was best for his family, his city, his county, his country, and was a person we were PROUD of?  

 

Obama was correct, it is time for change. "Yes, we CAN." BUT, until people get fed UP enough, and start making sure elected officials are held accountable (meaning to take the care to have a voice) all we are left to is the whims of others...

 

The sheep, are being led, by the wolves. 

 

Can Pat really bring the Changes the 41st Congressional District shall require? Or are they another wolf in sheep's clothes, that will just "do unto others", and line his own pocket with the spoils.

 

We want to know our Congress people CARE. We want to know what they do is well thought out beforehand, and we want to know they will have the strength, to DO what NEEDS to get done, no matter who wants otherwise.

 

I think on election day, we should vote to get rid of them ALL, or destroy paying them until they DO something that can be seen as positive for the community. Once they start being forced to work for their pay, then maybe things will change.

 

Redlands had it correct with their "slow growth" plan years ago.  When you grow, and don't do it slow enough you soon get overwhelmed by the deficit caused.  We need to slow down the money trail, make cuts where they need to be cut no matter the cost to services, because if we don't, our kids won't be able to enjoy the lives we work now to give them, in the next, 20, 30, 40, 50 years.  Our country is dying. What can Pat do? What WILL they do, and how can we trust a politician, in the wake of being lied to time and time again by our own presidents, whether it be Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, or Obama?

 

Does it end?

We don't need another Democrat to stifle the Californis economy more. How is that change working for you now.  There are so many new lage business buidings in Redlands alone that have never been occupied because of Obama and the democratic/progressive policies. More people are on: food stamps/EBT. welfare, SNAP, medical, lunches. dinners, baby sitters and .....  Illegal aliens get these free benefits too.  The EPA is forcing jobs out of this state.

WE CAN'T AFFORT ANOTHER PROGRESSIVE.
