			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>August 18, 2010</strong></p>
<p>A funny thing happened on the way to the new Health Care bill. Remember when President Obama signed that Executive Order for Bart Stupak promising no federal funds would be dispersed for abortion in order to get the votes of 14 Democrats who claimed to be pro-life? Stupak became a hero, didn’t he? Remember how Sarah Palin was savaged by the president and his media for claiming that the Health Care bill had sections in it which would lead to Death Panels?</p>
<p>Before the ink was dry on the president’s Executive Order, $160 million was given to the state of Pennsylvania to pay for mandated high risk insurance pools geared to cover all “legal” abortions. Within days another $37 million went to the state of New Mexico for the enrollment of individuals for benefits to be received beginning in August and including an elective for abortion services once a deductable was paid.</p>
<p>Page 53 of Maryland’s Health Insurance Program’s “2010 Plan Year Certificate of Coverage” indicates the use of federal funds for abortion under “Maternity Services”.</p>
<p>Obama’s Pre-existing Conditions scam in the Health Care bill is being directly administered in 21 states across the country to the tune of $5 billion. Another 29 states and D.C. will administer PCIPs through their own state programs.</p>
<p>The pro-life community has been vigilant and the recent outcry by the National Right to Life organizations throughout the country has shined a beacon of light on ObamaCare, leaving the HHS secretary scrambling for excuses.</p>
<p>President Obama also promised the American people that they would “maintain their right to a variety of health choices”. In the same breath, he appointed Donald Berwick &#8211; the man who stated in a public forum that “healthcare is by definition redistributional” &#8211; to head Medicare &amp; Medicaid.</p>
<p>The UK Telegraph recently discovered that the FDA advisory Board has dropped its endorsement of the drug Avastin which is used to treat colon cancer and advanced breast cancer citing “cost effectiveness” for their decision.</p>
<p>When healthcare is restricted or rationed by government bureaucracies, people die. Once the approval of a drug is revoked, insurance companies stop paying for it. When a government bureaucracy becomes the decision-maker in what costs insurance companies are allowed to incur to save your life, these government bureaucracies indeed become “Death Panels”.</p>
<p>It’s long past time for Americans to hear the truth about ObamaCare and the atrocious Health Care bill that was rammed down the throat of the American people who never asked for it, don’t want it, and are determined to vote come November for candidates who promise to repeal it!</p>
<p>I am that candidate.</p>
<p>I ask for your vote on Primary Day, September 14<sup>th</sup>. As your elected representative of the 4<sup>th</sup> Congressional District of Massachusetts, I will bring your concerns to Washington.</p>
<p>Earl Sholley</p>

Would you support a two-year 50% reduction in the payroll tax for both employer and employee to boost take-home pay and to free up cash for every employer to hire and invest? 
<strong>Yes</strong>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Earl Sholley supports <a href="http://www.americansolutions.com/">American Solutions </a>which are backed by Democrats, Republicans and Independents. Earl just completed the <a href="http://www.americansolutions.com/">American Solutions </a>candidate questionnaire, see his answers below:</p>
<p>Do you believe there are values which unite a large majority of Americans? (86% to 10%)<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Are you running for office to strengthen and revitalize America&#8217;s core values? (80% to 9%)<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Do you believe in long-term solutions instead of short-term fixes? (95% to 5%)<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Do you believe government has to change the way it operates and bring in ideas and systems currently employed in the private sector to increase productivity and effectiveness? (74% to 16%)<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Do you believe the changes we need in government have to occur in all 513,000 elected offices throughout the country and cannot be achieved by focusing only on Washington. (86% to 10%)<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>A January 2010 Rasmussen Reports poll found voters nationwide believe by a margin of 59% to 15% that cutting taxes is better than increasing government spending as a job-creation tool. Do you believe leaving taxpayer money in the hands of the American people does more good creating jobs than it could ever do through a government bureaucracy?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Sixty-one percent of voters believe tax cuts help the economy and 59% of voters believe tax cuts are a better job-creation tool than government spending. Would you support a two-year 50% reduction in the payroll tax for both employer and employee to boost take-home pay and to free up cash for every employer to hire and invest?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Do you believe in allowing small businesses to expense 100% of new equipment purchases to help them invest in new and more productive technology?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>The number one thing Americans associate with China is the &#8220;loss of U.S. jobs or cheap labor.&#8221; Knowing this, would you support helping American companies compete with China by matching their capital gains rate of zero?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Three out of four Americans polled during the 2008 election agreed that a lower U.S. corporate tax rate would attract more businesses to open in the United States. Knowing America has the second highest business tax rate in the world, would you spur business investment in the U.S. by lowering the U.S. corporate tax rate to 12.5% to match Ireland&#8217;s low rate?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Knowing taxes are a major inhibitor of passing small businesses from one generation to the next; do you support permanent elimination of the Death Tax?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Seven out of ten voters polled during the 2008 election thought a balanced budget is good for the economy. Do you support a Constitutional amendment to balance the federal budget or a law to ensure state budgets are balanced?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>A majority of Americans have consistently supported opening the Outer Continental Shelf for offshore drilling. The Minerals Management Service estimates there are 86 billion barrels of oil and 420 trillion cubic feet of natural gas not being utilized. Would you support opening the Outer Continental Shelf to energy exploration?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>In their most recent poll on the topic, Gallup found 59% of Americans, a record high, support the United States using nuclear power. To maintain nuclear power&#8217;s current 20% share of electricity generation, 34 new plants will need to be built by 2030. Do you support eliminating bureaucratic red tape in the permitting of new facilities?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Nearly one in three Americans thought that the United States would have made greater advances in technology by 2010. Would you support Congress developing a series of prizes to encourage entrepreneurs or a companies to develop a mass market car that gets 100 miles per gallon?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Oil shale is rock that contains oil that is released when heated. Would you support lifting the ban on developing the estimated 800 billion barrels of oil shale in Colorado, Wyoming and Utah?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>CBS News found that less than half of all parents with children in grades K-12 believe their child will be prepared to enter the job market. Do you believe education everywhere should be improved to prepare students to become lifelong learners?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Two-thirds of U.S. voters surveyed by Rasmussen Reports after the 2008 election say &#8220;the teachers&#8217; unions &#8212; the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers &#8212; are more interested in protecting their members&#8217; jobs than in the quality of education.&#8221; Do you support dismantling the power of government employee unions?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Rasmussen Reports found three in five Americans, Republicans, Democrats and Independents, support rewarding excellent teachers with extra pay. Do you support paying teachers for their performance?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Do you support expanding the number of charter schools in order to provide parents more options when choosing a school for their children?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Do you believe that we should allow professionals and experts, like engineers, scientists and accountants, with advanced degrees in their field, to teach classes part-time on subjects in the area of their expertise without the need for teaching certificates or being put through additional red tape?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Do you believe that we should empower parents with options to avoid failing schools by creating a voucher program, similar to the Pell Grant program for college, where grants can be applied to tuition to a private school?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>CBS News found that 70% of Americans &#8212; 85% Republicans, 53% Democrats and 73% of Independents &#8212; are either dissatisfied or angry with Washington Politicians. Do you believe that the electorate should vote out politicians who use their power to entrench themselves in office and provide benefit to political supporters?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>Congressional leaders are considering a ban on &#8220;earmarks&#8221; which is when a member of Congress specially directs federal funding back to its state or district. Do you support banning earmarks?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>The American people have expressed outrage with politicians cutting deals during the healthcare debate like the &#8220;Cornhusker Kickback&#8221; or the &#8220;Louisiana Purchase.&#8221; Do you support Congress making legislation online for three days prior to a vote, opening all government meetings and hearings to C-SPAN and making transcripts available online within 24 hours?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
<p>The State of California is considering a paycheck protection ballot measure. Paycheck protection requires a Union member to give their approval before their union dues can be used to support a political campaign. The Orange County Register notes the initiative has support from 63% of Californians. Would you support a national or state paycheck protection law?<br />
<strong>Yes</strong></p>
