The  MEMO:     Welcome to the MEMO: It has been a busy week.  First we had President Obama give a national speech trying to convince the country why we need to go into Syria, only to be out maneuvered by Vladamir Putin into agreeing on Chemical Weapons Inspections. The idea of inspections came from an off the cuff remark by John Kerry, and of course the MSM went along with the idea that his was Obama's plan all along. On the same night, 2 anti-2ND Amendment Politicians in the Colorado legislature recalled. And the explanation was that their voters were confused or else voter intimidation had occurred. We also had the 12Th Anniversary of 9/11 The debate over De-Funding Obamacare has been quiet for a bit, but it has heated up again.       Two Colorado Lawmakers Ousted in Recall Vote Over Gun Law by disneyr on September 11, 2013 Two Colorado State Lawmakers have been recalled because of their instrumental roles in getting new strict gun-control legislation passed in Colorado. The two recalled Colorado State Senate members include the President of the Senate, John Morse as well as State Senator Angela Giron. Two pieces of legislation signed into law by Democratic Governor John Hickenlooper which angered many Colorado voters enough to recall Morse and Giron were restrictions on ammunition magazines to hold no more than 15 bullets and required background checks for all firearm transactions which virtually outlawed all private sales or transfers of firearms. Angela Giron displayed agonizing ignorance of firearms and magazines when during one interview she wrongly stated that rifle magazines could only be used once so by outlawing them the magazines would be eliminated as they were used up or words to that effect. Many were angered that someone with such gross ignorance regarding firearms should be allowed to initiate and vote on laws restricting the constitutionally protected unalienable right to keep and bear arms.       What Shoes Are You Wearing Today? by Steve Foley on  September 11, 2013   Look down at your shoes. Could you break into a run in those if you needed to? Twelve years ago, the men and women getting ready to go to work at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon didn’t know they would be running that day. For many New Yorkers, the shoes they picked up off the closet floor that morning would later carry them down flights of stairs and through the streets of the city. They would become worn, covered with dust, and perhaps broken in a matter of minutes. Some would become pieces of history.       Wolverines! GOP Poised to Win Michigan Senate Seat by Steve Foley on September 12, 2013 Good morning folks, Carl Levin’s Senate seat is turning red. You read that correctly. Democrats have an expensive problem to solve in Michigan. Instead of Senator Carl Levin cruising to re-election, Democrats now face a very costly open-seat battle, with a very weak bench, in a state that consistently elects Republicans statewide in non-Presidential years. The Detroit Free Press reports that a poll conducted by Carl Levin’s pollster – EPIC-MRA – reveals that the race is tied and that Lynn Land is both more recognized and more popular than Democrat Gary Peters.  Land holds a 28-10 fav/unfav, while 55% of Michiganders don’t know who Gary Peters is.  Further, Barack Obama’s job-approval ratings have dropped severely in Michigan, to a 39% positive rating and a 60% negative.       U.S. coal industry braces for EPA emissions crackdown by Candice Lanier on September 13, 2013 (Reuters) – The Environmental Protection Agency is due to unveil next week the first batch of regulations under President Barack Obama’s new climate action plan – a carbon emissions-rate standard for new fossil fuel power plants. If standards are as strict as the industry expects, it could be the death knell for new coal plant construction. The recent bankruptcy of Longview, a highly efficient West Virginia coal plant, is an example of the pressures already facing the industry. When the Longview plant went into operation in 2011 – the first new coal plant to go online in West Virginia in 18 years – its owners wanted to show that there is a future role for coal in the U.S. energy mix.       VETO -Extremely Powerful Film About “SYRIAN REVOLUTION” by Steve Foley on  September 10, 2013  VETO is a short film sheds light on the current Syrian Revolution and the circumstances behind the transformation from peaceful movement to an armed revolution. VETO takes you through the last two years of this unbearable suffering with over 100,000 Syrian victims and more than 5 million displaced people, and a clueless world about how to stop this horrendous crime! VETO was made in 2012 and was nominated for the Documentary of The Year Award in Germany 2013 and was highlighted by several international media outlets.         On The Radar For This Week: A tragedy happened at the Naval Shipyard on Monday and there will be debate on what motivated the attacker, and from the Left debate on restricting guns.
