October 20th, 2006 - Congressional Self-Service
For those of you who wonder why I’m running for Congress, this article in USA Today explains it. If I’m not trying to be part of the solution, then I’m part of the problem. For me, it is a personal sacrifice to be a candidate for Congress. I am not a professional politician; if I […]
October 8th, 2006 - In Deep Denial

In the 1850s, my ancestors bravely immigrated to Central Illinois from England. I have tremendous admiration and empathy for people willing to leave their homes for a foreign country in an effort to improve their lives.
I received an e-mail from a lady about immigration asking me how I feel about the issue. This is the […]
September 19th, 2006 - NRA Postcards
For several weeks I’ve received hundreds of postcards from NRA members concerned about my position on the Second Amendment, gun registration, rogue Federal Agents, the U.N. disarming citizens worldwide, and the individual’s right to own and use firearms.
