Blue Flame Democrats
The 2008 Presidential Election has seen millions of new and veteran citizens enthusiasm and passion sparked into flame by the words and hopes of our candidates. The hottest flames burn blue. This group is devoted to empowering, educating, and listening to the voices of our neighbors, friends, family, and those we meet in our everyday lives. Real change occurs when the seats of power are filled by the people, when the only "rules" needed are those of the kindergarten, "play fair, be honest, don't lie or cheat". Our group is open to all who believe in a truly democratic Democratic Party. Can we do it? TOGETHER, yes we can!

In an address to the Texas Association of Broadcasters, Rick Norriega again addressed the issue of what he characterizes as Cornyn’s “blank check” and “rubber stamp” endorsement of Bush policies.

James Shannon, writing for The Examiner Online provided details on a bill of particulars from the Noriega campaign which illustrate a few of Noriega's profound differences with Cornyn:

Rick Noriega, soon to be the first Hispanic US Senator ever elected from Texas, issued a powerful call for financial responsibility yesterday.

With tens of billions in oil profits each year, and deposits earning hundreds of millions each year from the US Treasury, Rick says it is time for the American taxpayer to be relieved of this burden.

Read Rick's message, and sign his petition for action.

I have started a series of articles taking a close look at the U.S. economy. Today's article examines the public debt of the United States, how much we owe, who chareged the debt to our account, and what it means to you, me, our kids,... each citizen of our country.

If numbers absolutely bore you, this may not be one you want to read. I do think the data is important. I think we each need to know the facts, and have them available to counter the misrepresentations and misdirections distributed by the McCain campaign.

Taking a look at the numbers

As always questions, suggestions, comments are welcomed.
