Independence Hall Foundation Honors Scott Garrett

Independence Hall Foundation Honors Scott Garrett — The conservative Independence Hall Foundation has chosen Congressman Scott Garrett (NJ-5) as its 2016 Frederick Muhlenberg Legislator of the year.

The Award is named in honor of Pennsylvania Congressman Frederick Muhlenberg, the first Speaker of the US House of Representatives and is awarded annually to a legislator from the tri-state region. 

Congressman Muhlenberg, born January 1, 1750 in Trappe, Montgomery County, PA, served in the Continental Congress and the Pennsylvania House of Representatives before representing the Keystone State’s At-Large and 2nd Congressional Districts from 1789-1797.  As House Speaker, Congressman Muhlenberg had the distinct honor of being the first signer of the Bill of Rights.

Previous Foundation Legislator of the Year award recipients are Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick (PA-8), 2015; Congressman Jim Gerlach (PA-6), 2014; and Pennsylvania State Representative Steve Barrar, 2013.

“This year’s recipient, Congressman Scott Garrett, a staunch defender of religious liberty and the Bill of Rights, was a natural choice for this award,” said Foundation spokeswoman, Teri Adams.

“A consistent conservative over the years, outgoing Congressman Garrett, who represents a portion of Northern New Jersey, has a lifetime rating of 99.3 from the American Conservative Union. 

“A founder of the House Constitution Caucus and the House Freedom Caucus, Congressman Garrett is also a member of the Republican Liberty Caucus,” said Ms. Adams.

“While serving on the House Budget Committee, the Congressman fought for accuracy in government accounting by introducing the Budgetary and Accounting Transparency Act of 2014.

“Among a myriad of other concerns, the Congressman also fought against government earmarks and for the First Amendment Defense Act.  In 2007, he sponsored legislation supporting United Nations Membership for the island of Taiwan.”

Born in Englewood, NJ, Congressman Garrett spent most of his life in the Garden State–serving in the New Jersey State Assembly from 1992-2003. The Congressman received a BA in Political Science from Montclair State College and a JD from Rutgers School of Law, Camden.

He and his wife, Mary Ellen, have two adult daughters.

Oil spread on water can stop small waves. Benjamin Franklin knew this. His walking stick had a special compartment in which he would keep cooking oil. He would wave it over ponds in Philadelphia, calm the waters and mess with people’s heads.

Pennsylvania Gas Tax Hike Kicks In Jan. 1

Pennsylvania Gas Tax Hike Kicks In Jan. 1 — Pennsylvania’s gasoline tax rises 8 cents, Jan. 1. It’s  a consequence of the the 2013 bill that doomed Gov. Corbett because the state legislature couldn’t find money via increased efficiencies to fund infrastructure improvements — a feat easily accomplished by even a blind squirrel assuming the squirrel had a spine.

So Pennsylvanians, fill up today or tomorrow to save some dollars and don’t be surprised if you find yourself scheduling more shopping trips to sales-tax free Delaware for replenishing the tank. Pennsylvania Gas Tax Hike Kicks In Jan. 1

Most Americans will get cancer, research indicates. Chalk it up to the benefit of living to an old age. Autopsy studies suggest that 80 percent of American men in their 80s have small amounts of cancer in their prostate. Most of this went undiagnosed, though, because it never caused any problems.

Pa Drivers License Ineligible For Air Travel Come 2018

Pa Drivers License Ineligible For Air Travel Come 2018 — A Pennsylvania drivers license will not be accepted for boarding an airplane a year from now.

The state license is not compliant with the federal REAL ID Act of 2005.

And Pennsylvania law — Act 38 of 2012 — specifically prevents the state from being in compliance.

Something is obviously going to have to give, and it will be interesting to see which way. Many civil libertarians, including Evangelist Christians, oppose REAL ID on 10th Amendment grounds and from a fear it will lead to a national identity card.  Those primarily concerned about illegal immigration, however, support it. Pa Drivers License Ineligible For Air Travel Come 2018 -- A Pennsylvania drivers license will not be accepted for boarding an airplane a year from now.

President-Elect Trump was strongly supported by both sides.

Stay tuned.

Gaza, as in that place of controversy in the Mideast, was founded by people from Crete — called  Philistines in the Bible — more than 1,100 years before Christ. Palestine is a word first used by the Ancient Greeks,

Mecca Cool With Kerry

Mecca Cool With Kerry — Soon-to-be-ex Secretary of State John Kerry went before the UN today, Dec. 28, and blasted the only nation in the Mideast with a track record of respecting human rights.

“Israel can either be Jewish or it can be democratic, but it cannot be both,” he said.

You think this hypocritical fraud can say the same thing about the money-throwing Saudis?

Below is a photo of the entrance to Mecca. Dare anybody in the 0 Administration to condemn it.

Jan. 20 can’t come fast enough.
