Rick Snyder: We Are One Step Closer To Reinventing Michigan

Dear supporters,

Yesterday, we sent a clear message to Lansing - it is time to Reinvent Michigan with a common sense approach that only a political outsider can bring. You all made your voices heard and now we begin the next stage of ensuring that we can make Michigan prosperous once again.

Our message is one of inclusion. To create more and better jobs, remove excessive regulations and restore accountability to Lansing will require the support from all Michiganders, regardless of political party affiliation. To win together, we must work together.

My former opponents in the primary election have each decided to join our Reinvent Michigan team. I welcome their support and look forward to working with them to ensure we accomplish our goal.

We still have work to do. Please reach out to your friends, family, co-workers and neighbors. Invite them to join our team. Share this e-mail with everyone and refer them to our campaign website, www.RickforMichigan.com, so that they can learn about our plans for our state.

As the stakes grow, so too must our efforts. I will continue to take the principled stand against accepting contributions or political favors from special interest groups. Our next governor must be focused entirely on the best interests of Michiganders, not deep-pocketed lobbyists. This makes your support especially important. Please consider donating to help our campaign get the message of reinvention out across the state.

I will continue to bring my vision and plan directly to you, the voters, for your approval. We will continue to host our town halls across the state and our message will stay focused on the issues, not on mud-slinging politics as usual.

Thank you for all of your hard work and support. You made last night possible. With your continued efforts, I am confident that we will succeed in our goal to Reinvent Michigan.


Regards,

/s/ Rick Snyder

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer says new border signs are an outrage

If you only choose to get behind only one Republican Governor's candidate, please make it Jan Brewer, Governor of Arizona, who is standing up against the Obama Administration, LaRaza, and the Mexican President to defend their Immigration Bill that enforces what the Federal Government should be doing but won't.

These signs by the Obama Administration are a slap in the face to Arizona residents and the American people. If these signs are his idea of Border Security 80 miles from the border and 30 miles from the State Capitol to warn how dangerous the area is, then once again Obama has failed to deliver on a promise to provide Border Security.


Eighty miles from the Border, the Obama Administration has basically given the land to the illegals as these signs warn Americans how dangerous it is to travel in this area. These signs only 30 miles from the State Capitol show how poorly Napolitano performed as Governor as she allowed the illegals to continue to cross the border and evolve into the situation we have today. Guess she figures every illegal is a potential Democrat voter. Now as Secretary of Homeland Security she still does nothing to protect the Arizona border. Terrorists could easily cross the Arizona border into the United States but the Obama Administration doesn't seem to care.

Read Governor Brewer's letter to Obama asking for answers after her visit with him in the Oval Office on Border Security two weeks ago. When do you think he will get back to her? Probably not in the near future because he has too many golf dates planned.

This Republican Governor is standing up for the citizens of Arizona and America. She needs elected to a full term in office so she can continue to take on the Washington DC bureacracy of the Obama Administration and Democrat Congress. We need to send her some new members of Congress in January to join others like Senators McCain and Kyl and Congressman Flake who understand Border Security and will help Governor Brewer with this dangerous border situation.

Your vote on NOvember 2nd, 2010, is necessary to send Pelosi and Reid packing from leadership. We need to return some sanity to the halls of Congress where our Border Security will become a major issue and not shoved aside like is happening today with the Obama Democrats.

Watch Governor Brewer's YouTube video below and be reminded just how useless Obama and his Administration are when it comes to Border Security.

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer says new border signs are an outrage

PHOENIX - Arizona Governor Jan Brewer is calling a new border security initiative an outrage.

In a campaign video posted on YouTube Friday, Brewer stood in front of what she called newly posted signs by President Obama's administration about the Arizona desert being an active drug and human smuggling area.

"Washington says our border is as safe as it has ever been," Brewer said. "Does this look safe to you? What is our country coming to…we need to stand up and demand action. Washington is broken, Mr. President. Do your job. Secure our borders."

In a separate letter released the day before, Brewer told Obama she'd like specifics on National Guard deployments and other steps to be taken in Arizona before a planned Monday visit to Phoenix by Obama administration officials to discuss plans. The governor told reporters Friday she expects five officials from the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security at the meeting.

The meeting is an outgrowth of Brewer's June 3 visit to the White House where she and Obama discussed border security and immigration.

Brewer is currently running for re-election as Arizona's governor.
