[crowd laughs] I do not. I believe that today, still, the influence of special interests in Washington [has] crowded out the interests of the average citizens of the United States of America who are not represented by big money interests in Washington. Before we passed our legislation, it was routine for a trial lawyer, a union leader or a corporation executive to be called by a powerful member of Congress and say, I need a 6-figure or sometimes 7-figure check from you, and by the way, your legislation is up before my committee next week. And that's where all this earmarking and pork-barrelling also that corrupted us. </p> <p>"Corruption. I don't use that word lightly, my friends. We have former members of Congress residing in federal prison. If that isn't corruption, I don't know what is. So, we tried very hard. And I'll continue to try very hard to reduce the influence of special interests.</p> <p>"Look at the energy bill. I voted against the energy bill. Senator Obama voted for it. Look at the farm bill. [...] </p> <p>"So I'll continue to work to try to clean up and reduce--maybe never eliminate, but reduce the influence of special interests in Washington, DC. And I'd like to tell you that I think that in Washington today that your interests are uppermost. And I don't think they are in a lot of the legislative business that we do. So we'll have to continue to work to try to make sure that we can eliminate some of these very terrible practices that have become commonplace. And I also will count on some of our citizens to exercise their voice at the ballot booth."</p> <p>LABEL: JM PA 07-23 (SD#1LS) AKCGW-ClipA</p> <p>If you'd like to acquire a high resolution version of this clip visit: <a href="http://issuealliance.box.net/shared/gifj5tp40c">issuealliance.box.net</a> </p> </div> <a href="/blog/46650-john-mccain-town-hall-07-23-08">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/46360-valerie-vanieri-huttle-speaks-at-campaign-kickoff 2008-08-21T14:30:25Z Nick Lento <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lkmLyYfw6GY&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lkmLyYfw6GY&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/46360-valerie-vanieri-huttle-speaks-at-campaign-kickoff"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/54504" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>After a joyful, humorous and astute introduction Valerie goes on to talk about her dedication to restoring a sense of integrity and credibility to politics...which is supposed to be, after all, a public service; not "self service".</p> </div> <a href="/blog/46360-valerie-vanieri-huttle-speaks-at-campaign-kickoff">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/43770-john-mccain-press-avail-04-26-08 2008-06-30T23:46:58Z IssueAlliance <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wH3HYy3E8_E&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wH3HYy3E8_E&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/43770-john-mccain-press-avail-04-26-08"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/50109" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>John McCain <br />Press Avail <br />Coral Gables, FL 04/26/08</p> <p>TRANSCRIPT: <br />Q: "I wonder if you would comment on the New York Times report about the use of your wife's corporate jet, and does that contradict your stance on campaign finance reform?" </p> <p>MCCAIN: "What we did was perfectly legal and appropriate." </p> <p>LABEL: JM FL 4-26 (JC#129) RSZZ - ClipH</p> <p>If you'd like to acquire a high resolution version of this clip, email videoprogressivemedia@gmail.com.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/43770-john-mccain-press-avail-04-26-08">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/43121-the-republican-leave-us-alone-coalition-grover-norquist 2008-07-18T18:42:01Z FORAtv <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eTV6e9OkVk4&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eTV6e9OkVk4&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/43121-the-republican-leave-us-alone-coalition-grover-norquist"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/49133" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Complete video at: <a href="http://fora.tv/2008/05/15/Grover_Norquist_on_the_Next_Republicanism">fora.tv</a> </p> <p>Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist argues that the central unifying idea of the conservative movement is the belief that government should stay out of citizen's lives as much as possible.</p> <p>-----</p> <p>On May 15th, Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform discussed his new book, Leave Us Alone: Getting the Government's Hands Off Our Money, Our Guns, Our Lives, and entertained questions from an audience at the New America Foundation.</p> <p>Norquist began by analyzing the political landscape of American politics, dividing it into two inimically opposed coalitions: the "Takings Coalition," comprised of groups with a shared interest in feeding upon the earnings and wealth of others, and the "Leave Us Alone Coalition," composed of those with a common interest in keeping the government out of their lives.</p> <p>While the components of each coalition contain diverse viewpoints on many issues, all are motivated to cooperate and vote by shared interest in one area: the degree to which a government should interact with the social and financial autonomy of its citizens.</p> <p>The contrast between these two coalitions represents the ideological divide that will shape American domestic policy for the next several generations, according to Norquist. Their balance of power will decide the direction that American policy moves toward for the next generation.</p> <p>Norquist went on to identify the trends that would alter this balance in the future, including differing fertility rates, the decline of hunting, and the expansion of stock ownership. He also discussed important legislative priorities for the "Leave Us Alone Coalition," such as portable health savings plans and individually mandated savings accounts - New America Foundation</p> <p>Mr. Norquist is president of Americans for Tax Reform (ATR), a coalition of taxpayer groups, individuals and businesses opposed to higher taxes at both the federal, state, and local levels. </p> <p>ATR organizes the TAXPAYER PROTECTION PLEDGE, which asks all candidates for federal and state office to commit themselves in writing to oppose all tax increases. To date, President George W. Bush, 193 House members, and 41 Senators have taken the pledge. On the state level, 7 governors and 1,221 state legislators have taken the pledge.</p> <p>Mr. Norquist is author of the book Leave Us Alone -- Getting the Government's Hands Off Our Money, Our Guns, Our Lives. The book is an optimistic look at how the conservative movement can and will grow during the next 25 years.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/43121-the-republican-leave-us-alone-coalition-grover-norquist">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/42268-marwan-muasher-the-arab-center-1 2008-08-21T16:29:06Z Carnegie Council <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Oz-dBuepX1M&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Oz-dBuepX1M&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/42268-marwan-muasher-the-arab-center-1"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/47702" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>"To be a moderate in the Arab world today," says Marwan Muasher, "is to be a very, very tiny minority."
