Hey Washington State!
    Vote for Mike McGavick. He is taking a common-sense stand on important issues. Everybody except the most liberal of Washingtonians will agree with Mike. 
    Who can explain why Senator Cantwell thinks that illegal immigrants should be allowed social security benefits? These people are breaking the law to be here taking our jobs because they work for peanuts. This non-sense that they are doing the jobs that Americans won't do is bull. They are doing the jobs that farmers and others can get away paying them a few dollars an hour because they aren't supposed to be here in the 1st place.
     The death tax, as it's called, is a socialist way of making sure that wealth such as a successfull family business, a farm or even wealth built thru investments such as a home, rental houses or even a 401K or other investment wealth cannot be passed to descendents without paying a hefty tax. Paying this tax often causes the descendents to have to liquidate to meet the tax obligation. What's vitally important to remember is that this is all wealth that taxes have already been paid on and is brutally taxed again on a person's death. Is this the American way to be successful in life and then have the government take a huge chunk of what you want to leave your children on your death so they have to sell everything to pay the tax? This take is simply wrong. And opponents to eliminating this tax have no argument except to say "How would we replace the money?"
     Drug testing for welfare recipients who care for children is a fresh idea and one that makes sense. If citizens are paying someone who is on welfare, doesn't it make sense that 1) They aren't using the money that comes from our pockets via taxes to buy drugs and 2) They aren't using drugs in front of their children? The truth is that there is a vicious circle of welfare recipients who are on the program generation after generation and don't break out. Drug use is a prime reason why individuals cannot make it or don't even try to make it. Stop the chain, stop the cycle. Why would Senator Cantwell not think that is a good idea?
     Lower taxes are a good idea. Letting people who work hard keep more of their own money allows them to invest and save so that they can retire comfortably and not work until they die. How many people do you know who must keep working into their 60's and 70's because they don't have enough money to retire? Plenty I'd bet. With higher taxes, Americans must rely on Social Security and other government programs that Democrats spotlight. Democrats are all about social programs because they know this will keep them in power and it's all about power. Keeping taxes high and raising taxes which Democrats promise to do (and how Maria Cantwell votes) keeps money out of our pockets so we can't save or invest and must depend on social programs, and of course, the politicians who push these programs are the Democrats. If people had lower taxes they can save more, invest more, buy a better house in a better neighborhood, buy a better car, better clothes, maybe even send their kids to better schools. Even more importantly, lower taxes enable businesses to grow or to start up and this means more jobs and a stronger economy. So why would Senator Cantwell not want to make the tax cuts permanent? I don't know, do you? If she really cared about her constituents, she'd be pushing to lower taxes even more but that won't ever happen!
     Keeping illegal aliens out of America is simply common sense. If putting up a fence on 700 miles of the Mexican-American border will help, why not do it? Unless of course, you want illegal immigrants entering the US and taking our jobs. If people want to come to America then they need to do it like all of our ancestors did. Like my grandfather did. Legally. He learned English. He worked hard. He retired on his pension and the money he saved and social security. Why shouldn't we keep out people who want to enter illegally? And what's wrong with recognizing English as the national language. If you visit Germany don't you expect Germans to speak German? If you visit Italy don't you expect them to speak Italian? There is a German culture, there is an Italian culture. In America we speak English and we have an American culture, but we also have an illegal immigration problem and these people don't speak English, they don't learn English and they don't assimilate with the American culture like my Grandparents did. What's wrong with promoting English as the national language and keeping American culture going strong? What's wrong with Senator Cantwell? Doesn't she think that immigrants who came here legally from all over the world want to become Americans? They do. It is unfair to them and all of us in America to not fight to keep our national identity that radical liberal groups are trying to take away because they don't like America. I'm a citizen of America. Of the United Staes of America. I don't want to be a "world citizen". I like being an American. I like living in America. I'm not alone in how I feel and I'm certainly not in the minority on this issue. Neither is Mike McGavick. 
     Washington needs to send a better person to Capital Hill then Maria Cantwell and Mike is this person. He is intelligent, he is reasonable and is ideas are not radical. His ideas and positions on important topics are common sense to anybody who really thinks about it. Support him and send a normal Washingtonian to Washington, D.C.. Let's put us back on the map again.
