Are there no Ritz-Carltons, Embassy Suites, Holiday Inn Expresses or Homewood Suites? It’s for the children, after all.

They’ll probably end up declaring martial law to “protect” us from all the terrorists who are taking advantage of this.

This is beginning to look more and more like Hitler’s Germany each day. Soros, Jarrett, Axelrod and Ayres must be wetting their undies with glee.

All those (except for the Ritz) would fit into that budget I believe.

Just called to hound my representative for the Lubbock area again and one of his assistants directed me to the following update that he has put out the following press release that he does not support using the Littlefield facility. She told me to tell those in the area that he hears us!
