Call in and let American Statesman know what you are doing to make a difference. **Florida High Speed Rail Update – Republicans or more Progressive Liberals?** Looks like business as usual for Florida HSR. Per Matt Falconer “Despite electing a record number of Republicans last year it appears the train projects are moving forward. The progressives want to get us out of our cars and the special interests want our money. This is a $100 billion policy mistake Florida may never recover from.” What is really going on in Tallahassee? Read Matt’s article http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/view/199938 **TSA Update** It is time to take action and get TSA out of OIA. Sally will provide an update. **China Update** What do you think about the way President Obama deals with China? When will the U.S.A. get tough with China? **Obama’s Approval on the Rise - Will Voters be suckered in to Re-Electing Obama in 2012?** Much is said about the new direction President Obama is taking right now. Will Americans – especially TEA Partiers fall of this performance and re-elect Obama in 2012? * * *What is the State of Our Union in 2011?* * * What is the true purpose of the State of the Union Address?
