Ask Jim Webb To Run as an Independent?

I wanted to see him. Finally a Democrat who can take Hillary down a couple of pegs. Then he announced his campaign and nothing. And Berrnie Sanders it all over the T.V.. They screw him in there debate were he is shut down. And if he is still runny, he has no rallies.

The president we need.

Dear Mr. President:

I would like to express my concern regarding reports that the Administration may believe it has the unilateral power to commit the government of the United States to certain standards that may be agreed upon at the upcoming United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Conference of Parties 15 in Copenhagen, Denmark. The phrase “politically binding” has been used.

Although details have not been made available, recent statements by Special Envoy on Climate Change Todd Stern indicate that negotiators may be intending to commit the United States to a nationwide emission reduction program. As you well know from your time in the Senate, only specific legislation agreed upon in the Congress, or a treaty ratified by the Senate, could actually create such a commitment on behalf of our country.

I would very much appreciate having this matter clarified in advance of the Copenhagen meetings.

Sincerely,

Jim Webb
United States Senator

Legendary journalist Ted Koppel was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert this week, discussing the vulnerability of our nation's power grids, which are likely targets our enemies are eyeing. As Mr. Koppel noted in this interview, Jim Webb is the only presidential candidate talking about this serious threat.

Clinton tops 2016 field in drug industry donations

Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton has received more campaign cash from drug companies than any candidate in either party, even as she proudly declares the industry is one of her biggest enemies.

Clinton accepted $164,315 in the first six months of the campaign from drug companies, far more than the rest of the 2016 field, according to an analysis by Stat News.

Cash from drug companies poured in despite Clinton’s tough public stance on the industry. Last month, she unveiled a plan to combat rising drug prices by clamping down on the rules for pharmaceuticals. In last week’s Democratic debate, she listed off drug companies among the enemies she is most proud to have made in politics.
Clinton has taken a harder stance on drug companies than any other candidate besides Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who has also skewered “Big Pharma” as he seeks the Democratic nomination.

This week, Sanders rejected a $2,700 contribution from Martin Shkreli, the now-infamous CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals, which hiked prices for a life-saving drug by 4,000 percent overnight.

Among Republicans, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) took in the most at $96,045, followed by $52,430 to Sen Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and $50,700 to former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
