Representative McCarthy is absolutely correct, that this is the year for Diane Feinstein to be retired. She is still up to her divisive ways, while blaming Republicans for blocking “her agenda.” There can be no question that the lyrics to the song written below by Bob Dylan were directed toward the continued obstruction she promulgates along with the ever obstreperous Harry Reid.
Yes, Mrs. Feinstein the battle outside is ragin;’ it’s the battle for the United States Constitution, for freedom and from the tyranny you lust to impose upon your constituents.
BECAUSE OF ELIZABETH EMKEN I DID MY VERY FIRST TWEET
We The People are made up of individuals who collectively have always been willing to make any sacrifice even if it meant their lives. Progressives like Dianne Feinstein have it backwards, she believes that citizens are at her beck and call….This is just another of the reasons she will be fired on November 6th.
Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call, don’t stand in the doorway, don’t block up the hall,For he that gets hurt, will be he who has stalled, there’s a battle outside, and it is ragin,’ it’ll soon shake your windows,And rattle your walls, for the times they are a-changin’.
Dianne Feinstein and Senate Democrats have failed us once again. This month Feinstein and her friends in the Senate refused to pass any one of the five separate federal budget proposals put in front of them including President Obama’s budget and four different proposals offered by Rep. Ryan and Senators Toomey, Paul and Lee.It has now been 1,127 days since Dianne Feinstein and her fellow Senate Democrats passed a budget. Since then, the federal government has spent $10.6 trillion and, even more alarming, the federal debt has skyrocketed by $6.5 trillion during the last five years of Sen. Feinstein 3rd term in the Senate.
Nothing highlights Feinstein’s failed leadership more than her refusal to support a budget, something all California families do every month. None of us can suspend our family budgeting for years on end without consequence. It’s time to retire Senator Feinstein and let the next generation take over and get to work.We can remove one of the most entrenched career politicians in Washington in 2012 if we have the right Republican candidate. That candidate is Elizabeth Emken.
Polling has shown that Emken appeals to conservatives, independents and women across party lines, and during a campaign season where Democrats are desperate to make women’s rights the dominant issue, Elizabeth will be positioned to fight back successfully.
California has been run to the brink of bankruptcy by tax and spend democrats since the late sixty’s. Bereft of economic policies that create wealth, jobs while retaining businesses and residents many now believe California will never become the Golden State once again but has seen its halcyon days. Not so, says Elizabeth Emken is ready to turn California around along with the new Republican members of the U.S. Senate, along with rest of the United States.
Many have forgotten that California’s economy was once the 8th largest in the entire world.
Elizabeth understands, unlike California’s current governor, rising taxes is not the solution, raising the number of tax paying gainfully employed workers is. Democrat policy in the pursuit of equality for all, offers nothing more than shared misery.
It’s time for the aging senior senator seeking her 5 term in office to be stopped from the destructive path she and her fellow democrats have brought upon CA and the entire country. Interested in serious solutions?
Look no further than Elizabeth. Elizabeth Emken served in management, financial analysis, and corporate operations at IBM. As an efficiency and cost cutting expert, Elizabeth utilized activity-based cost analyses to identify administrative savings across IBM U.S. helping streamline operations, eliminate waste, and save the company millions of dollars.
Elizabeth graduated from UCLA in 1984 with degrees in Economics and Political Science. Her studies included course work at Cambridge University, where she focused on political and economic issues in China and the Middle East.
With less than a week until the June 5th primary, it’s important to remember the reasons why the overwhelming majority of Republican leaders and legends have backed Elizabeth Emken in her campaign to retire Dianne Feinstein in 2012.
Endorsements from a wide variety of organizations, including the California Republican Party, have made Emken the top candidate to face Feinstein this coming November.

Danville Resident Elizabeth Emken, is running for the U.S. senate against Dianne Feinstein, spoke with the San Francisco Chronicle reporter, Carla Marinucci recently.
The Politics Blog from the Chronicle writes: “The GOP Woman who dareth challenge Feinstein.”
She’s taken on the political equivalent of a suicide mission: She’s aiming to take on U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who is arguably the most popular politicianin California.
Indeed there is serious argument about Feinstein’s popularity as a politician in California. More telling, there is a huge number of Californians that want to see her beaten badly on November 6th.
The Emken campaign is gathering serious financial momentum with contributions coming in from California as well as most of the United States, indicative of an electorate that understands the aging senior senator must be put out to pasture.

In a video, the Chronicles Carla Marinucci wanted to find out why Emken is going after Feinstein in such a seemingly impossible race. Marinucci kicks it off with asking Emken: “Are you insane?”
She answers: “No, I’m not insane. Diane Feinstein, is polling at the worst of her political career. California is ready for a change.”
In a cliché filled talk that fell for the most part on deaf ears, Senator Diane Feinstein the queen of tax and spend had the chutzpah to go before the Women’s Chamber of Commerce in Santa Barbara, CA and trumpet federal government solutions as the answers to private sector woes. The group was polite as members of the chamber were well versed on how the “Queen of tax and spend had damaged their business and driven many not remaining away from the state or overseas. With her presentation she proved indeed that she is the Great Pretender!
“For the United States to truly recover from the Great Recession, the federal government and its state counterparts need to be creative with tax reform and budget proposals to jump-start the economy.”
(The senator must be excused for trying to throw a hanging curve ball to this group of private sector advocates. They knew only too well that the government IS THE PROBLEM and solves much of nothing at the federal level.)
That was the view of U.S. senator Dianne Feinstein, (D-CA), who spoke at a luncheon hosted by the Santa Barbara Region, Chamber of Commerce yesterday. “The important thing is that in times of economic trouble, the government needs to come up with some constructive solutions,” Feinstein told the audience at the Canary Hotel in down town Santa Barbara.
(O.K. in fairness here some members were seen with their heads in their napkins attempting to stifle laughter, in doing so they remained as polite as possible.)
Among them, many were noted wearing Emken U.S. Senate 2012 buttons much to the senator’s chagrin.
Feinstein said, “I think we are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel here.”
Feinstein also said ” In order for the economy to dig out of its $11 trillion in national debt and move toward a recovery, politicians need to move away from partisan gridlock and figure how to fund programs that support businesses.
(Mrs. Feinstein is always willing to compromise on anything other than raising taxes and shredding the Second Amendment.)
“The Republican’s don’t want to raise taxes and the Democrats don’t want any cuts to entitlements, including Medicare and Social Security.” “We have to do both the senator said, we need solutions.”
(Perhaps the senator might cut the nonsense? Democrats want to scare older people about entitlements while democrats just kick the issue down the road while Republicans have plans to keep both programs fiscally sound)
Feinstein offered up the Troubled Asset Relief Program, as a federal government’s 2008 bailout program for banks, as one creative and successful initiative. She told the group that she was on a conference call with 40 other senators and Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, who told the group the U.S. was in danger of facing an economic collapse bigger than the Great Depression.
“Then we passed TARP,” Feinstein said. “People hated it, but it’s all being paid back and “I believe the government will make money on it.” Nothing could be further from the truth.
(Most everyone including President George W. Bush, regretted signing the initial TARP funding before he left office.)
Below the reader will find a taste of the wrong-headed votes by Dianne Feinstein over the past 12 years. This is a woman, if she leaned anything at all while studying economics, failed to learn a thing about what is best for growing jobs and the economy. Can there be any serious question why California is $16 Billion in the red?
She believes intuitively that the wealth created by the risk takers in the private sector belongs to the government. She will tax and spend while you are living, and tax you when you die. This dear readers is in the genetic make up of progressives like Di-Fi…
Voters have decided to put their faith in Elizabeth Emken, who served in management, financial analysis, and corporate operations at IBM. As an efficiency and cost cutting expert, Elizabeth utilized activity-based cost analyses to identify administrative savings across IBM U.S., helping streamline operations, eliminate waste, and save the company millions of dollars. Elizabeth graduated from UCLA in 1984 with degrees in Economics and Political Science. Her studies included course work at Cambridge University, where she focused on political and economic issues in China and the Middle East.
It is because of her radical leftist zealotry when it comes to taxing and spending she once again fails to represent America. The Keynesian economic policies she has perpetuated have long since been tossed on the dust bin of history. She would do well to follow her ideas, Dianne Feinstein will not be missed among Americans who believe in the Constitution, The Bill of Rights, while living in freedom and not under tyranny.
