Hello all!

I have to be impressed by Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas on his win in Iowa. He has run a hands on campaign, doing it face to face with the voters. His hard work has paid off, he came out of nowhere and won the first round of the Presidential campaign while being outspent by his opponents. Folks, this shows 2 things: that THIS year fresh ideas can win and overcome opponents with lots of money!

This week will continue a blistering pace of campaigning in this New Year. Tuesday I am speaking with my good friends and supporters at the Fayetteville Fair Tax group. Wednesday, listen for me live on 93.7/106.3 FM from 8-9am in Wilmington, and that evening I am attending a dinner in Myrtle Beach with Sean Hannity as the guest speaker and will be speaking with Sean about a possible appearance on his national radio show and/or the Hannity and Colmes show on the FOX News Channel. Thursday, it is the Republican Women's Club of Cumberland County as keynote speaker and then I'm attending the Republican Presidential Candidates debate in Myrtle Beach. I will make it a point to speak to all of the candidates, but I especially want to talk to Mike Huckabee about the FAIR Tax and other issues we agree on. Maybe Chuck Norris will need a pilot who also knows his way around SC.
I am very excited to announce a new coalition of Republican Iraq War Vets running for Congress. Go to: http://www.iraqvetsforcongress.com/ for more information. You will see me listed on this website along with 9 other Iraq War Vets running for congress nationwide. We have formed a Press office and with the goal of appearing on national talk shows to get our positive message out about the successes in Iraq the average person never hears about. This is exciting stuff folks! This campaign is going to be known nationally, not just regionally!

Also, BIG NEWS, check out the aWILLtoWIN blog on our web site!

Thanks and have a great week,

Will

PS: Did you know that to show the world you support my campaign you need to donate at least $201, at that level the report to the FEC will include your name – proudly proclaiming to all that you believe I should be your next Congressman!

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to all! I will join you in making resolutions this
year and I hope we all succeed. My sincere resolution is to serve you
as your next U.S. Congressman in this District. It can and will happen
if we work together and sincerely resolve to make it happen!

The holidays are almost over and I would love to see you. There are a few appearances coming up this week I would love for you to participate in.
Today in Boliva, Brunswick County is the swearing in ceremony for Judge Bill Fairley who was just appointed by Governor Easley to the 13th Judicial Circuit which encompasses Bladen, Brunswick and Columbus Counties. Yes, you read right....Governor Easley has appointed a Republican to the bench and I will be there to help him celebrate! Bill Fairley is a wonderful man who is knowledgeable and trustworthy and will make a great judge. I congratulate him in his new position.

All of this however, causes me to pause and wonder what the intention of Governor Easley is with this appointment. Governor Easley may be planning a run for the U.S. Senate against Elizabeth Dole.
Brunswick County is a solid Republican County and we will see many attempts to woo Republican voters by liberal Democrats like Easley, McIntyre and HILLARY! Let's support and be happy for the GOP and
especially for Bill Fairley, but let's also be attentive to the intentions of the liberal Democratic Party.

I will be at the Wilmington Hilton at 7am on 4 Jan 08 for an Economic Presentation by a representative of the Federal Reserve followed by a radio appearance at 10am with Curtis Wright (the big talker) at the YMCA on Market Street in Wilmington to praise the work being done supporting my fellow troops with needed supplies.

Too much of my time, however, is being spent raising money via the telephone. We call it "dialing for dollars". Money is necessary, but I hate spending valuable time raising it. I SHOULD be talking to you and
your neighbors learning about you and your views on the important issues facing this district, the state and the nation. The fact is that without money, our message will not be heard by the general public.
This would be so much more efficient if you and your friends gave on line to our campaign and/or organized fundraising house parties for us.

I absolutely love people and love campaigning. I REALLY want to give you a voice in this process. Come up with an idea and call my scheduler, Ashley Stanton, at 910-409-7023. Be safe on New Year's Eve
and be thankful for blessings to come. Until next week....

Will

Christmas Newsletter

It is Christmas Eve and there is one thing I would like to emphasize. The Republican Party is a party of peace through strength. "Peace on Earth" will only be achieved by having the strength to keep rogue nations and organizations in check. Veterans like myself feel for our soldiers who are paying the price, being away from their families during Christmas, but this sacrifice shows our national resolve to preserve peace and our way of life which involves freedom of religion among other rights and privileges.

Beginning 2 Jan 08 we will be in our "4th quarter" for this election. This begins the period where our campaign will do what it takes to win this race. This will involve long working hours and no days off, especially for me. Every spare minute I have, I am calling people for donations to the campaign, reading a variety of newspapers to keep up on the issues and I am looking for events to meet the most people possible to tell them our innovative ideas to better their lives and our country.

I urge each of you to go the extra mile in helping our campaign in 2008. Please do not wait for us to ask....be creative and come up with ways you can help us...especially financially.

I pray for you and your families to have a wonderful and meaningful celebration of Jesus' Birth. Have a happy and safe New Year as well!

God Bless,

Will

It is almost Christmas! I ask all of you to continue to pray for our soldiers and their families, as Christmas is a very tough time of year for the many families separated by distance and danger. I should know, I have spent 2 of the last 3 Christmas Days overseas in combat zones myself.

Now for this week's issues:

Victory for airline pilots and your traveling safety was accomplished this week! The House and Senate unanimously approved raising the retirement age for the nation's 80,000 airline pilots from 60 to 65. This allows pilots to financially makeup for their disappearing pensions due to the terrible effect that 9/11 had on the financial bottom line of airlines. Many airlines like US Airways and United were granted Bankruptcy Court approval to cancel their pension plans. This left my fellow airline pilots in a terrible financial position for retirement. Now pilots can work an extra 5 years to build up their savings and to provide you with more experience to serve you as you travel. It took Congress and the President less than a week to make this change in the law happen. This shows what can be done when our government works together!

Earmarks have reared their ugly head. I was reading USA Today's December 12th edition and the December 14th edition and we all know that the many US House and Senate members like to bring home the pork, but you may not know just how out of control they are! For fiscal year 2008, the House had $4.5 Billion in earmarks for an average of $10.7 Million per requesting member. This is outrageous! And much of this money is to reward contributors for funding their campaigns. The money for the earmarks is not the personal money of Members of Congress....it is YOUR tax money that they are wasting just to keep their jobs.

Mike McIntyre is guilty of the same thing. One his many earmarks included $75,000 to a golf cart company in Bladen County which gained the laughter and the amazement of local residents. When Nancy Pelosi and her Democrats took control of Congress last January, they said they would change things particularly they would end the abusive earmarks. As with nearly all the other campaign promises they made, their words did not match their actions. The Democrats continue to break their campaign promises by maneuvering to squash any scrutiny of numerous earmarks which were inserted secretly into appropriations bills. North Carolina’s taxpayers will never know if these secret projects are nothing more than a boondoggle. Think about it, do you want your hard earned tax dollars spent on Pork Barrel projects with no scrutiny? McIntyre does, he had plenty of opportunities this year to vote against earmarks - but he won’t do it – if he votes against theirs, they might vote against his!

In the meantime, I am going to ask all of you who are not looking for Pork Barrel earmarks for your continuing financial support. Just whip out your credit card and donate on-line at http://www.awilltowin.com/. Most of our contributions are under $250 which is fine with me. I would much rather have 1,000-$250 contributions than 250-$1,000 contributions!

Until next week,
Will
P.S.- Please remember to call our scheduler, Ashley Stanton, with your date to hold a house party/fundraising reception for me with your friends and family in attendance. When you book a date, our events coordinator, Nicole Siemer and her team, will come and help you setup before the party to make it a huge success.

Help scrap the income tax!

I know, Santa is coming but so is that crucial end of the year - gotta do this so it goes on this year's taxes - is only a week after Christmas. Why do we have to do that?

If the FAIR Tax were implemented that week between Christmas and New Years would be no big deal. It wouldn't matter what you bought or paid for or donated to before the end of the year! There would be no need because there would be no income tax.

This year you can do some year end - last minute donating that could mean in future years you would not ever have to think about income taxes (at least federal ones) again.

Make a donation now to a FAIR TAX supporter - Will Breazeale - who is running for Congress. Help him and the other FAIR TAX supporters build the momentum needed to dump the income tax and all that goes with it.

See that SlateCard widgit over there? Click on it, get out your credit card and send him $10.40 (or more) in honor of scrapping the income tax. You can then select the FAIR TAX Badge to show him you support him because of the FAIR TAX.

Send this message or a link to it to every one you know that hates the income tax (I know that is repetitive - cause every one I know hates the income tax - so just send it to everyone).

More veterans running for Congress

Cross Posted from SteveMaloneyGOP

Bulletin: If you want to support our troops -- and all of you do -- please be aware of the veterans who are running for Congress, including William T. Russell, Eric Egland, and Duncan Duane Hunter (the presidential candidate's son). Please be good enough to go to their web sites and offer them any assistance you can.

http://williamrussellforcongress.com/
http://ericegland.com/
http://hunterin08.com/

It's clearly time to send people to Congress who actually have first-hand knowledge of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Russell, Egland, and Hunter do.

Air Force veteran and former Rhodes Scholar Heather A. Wilson of New Mexico is running for the U.S. Senate seat in New Mexico. She's the only female veteran ever elected to Congress. Heather is a staunch supporter of the military and an expert on foreign affairs, especially in the Middle East. She's exactly the kind of person we need to improve the quality of government in DC. You can find her site at:
http://heatherforsenate.com.

A Vets4Russell web site will be appearing soon, and I urge everyone to visit it. Veterans are a critical constituency for Murtha opponent William T. Russell. There are approximately 50,000 veterans in Russell's 12th Congressional District of PA. We won't get all of them, but we will get the vast majority of them. The damage Murtha has done with his irresponsible comments about Haditha is incalculable.

I'll be one of the contributors to the site.

I also urge everyone to visit the Web site of the only female veteran ever elected to Congress -- Air Force Academcy graduate and Rhodes Scholar Heather Wilson. She's running for the New Mexico Senate seat to replace Sen. Pete Domenici. You can find her at: http://heatherforsenate.com/.

The absolute best way we can "support our troops" is to elect quality people like William Russell and Heather Wilson. Contributing to these fine people is the best step we can take to improve the quality of our government. Please do so today!

The absolutely critical challenge in the Russell Campaign are how to "detach" conservative Democrats from the Murtha column. In the 12th District, there are twice as many registered Democrats as Republicans.

However, many of those Democrats -- up to 45% -- have shown themselves willing to vote for Republican candidates. In 2004, President Bush -- not the most popular figure in PA -- got 49% of the vote against John Kerry. In fact, Bush won Murtha's home county (Cambria).

Murtha's recent statement that "The Surge is working" reflects the fact that he's feeling the "heat" from the Russell Campaign. Many veterans in the district look at Murtha's disgraceful statements about the Haditha Marines and wonder, "Gee, what's wrong with good ole John?"

The Russell Campaign needs to convince such people that Murtha has "lost it," that he's more concerned with preserving his own political power than protecting the troops. Many Democrats are beginning to recongize that but they're not quite willing -- yet -- to vote against Murtha.

Of course, Murtha gets conservative votes because many people in the District believe "He brings home the bacon!" As I've pointed out previously -- using Bureau of Labor Statistics data -- Murtha DOES NOT bring home the bacon.

Yes, he does use taxpayer dollars to bring some "captive jobs" to the Johnstown area. However, most of the District remains economically depressed. The median household income in the 12th is one of the lowest in the state -- about the same as inner-city districts in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia.

Do conservative Democrats in the 12th know these things? A growing number do, but a majority still believes that Murtha has done great things for the District.

Murtha's focus in the 21st century has been to raise huge amounts of cash for his campaigns. Until the year 2000 -- and you can find this in OpenSecrets -- his campaign funds were about average, even though he rarely even had any opposition. He's had strong opposition only once in this century, but every two years he raises Brobdinagian funds that are double the congressional average.

In other words, if you want tens of millions in federal handouts ("earmarks") from John Murtha, you'd better be prepared to pony up with huge "donations." Apparentely, the funds get distributed back to various supporters, including his former aide Paul Magliochetti (of the PMA lobbying Group). Magliochetti makes millions from Murtha's actions -- and returns hundreds of thousands in campaign gifts.

The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) has received tens of millions in federal dollars via Murtha. UPMC, also the former employer of Rep. Jason Altmire, is known for wildly overcharging patients and their insurers. This supposed "non-profit" generated a surplus (i.e., profit) of $460 million in the first nine months of 2007. UPMC has given more than $300,000 to Murtha in this century -- including $100,000 in 2007.

Are most conservative Democrats aware of the strange goings-on with campaign funds? Apparently, very few of them are. The notion that Murtha is "a good guy" is one of the abiding myths in the 12th District. But grown-ups eventually stop believing in myths.

There are real opportunities here for the Russell Campaign. Murtha's past electoral successes are based on illusions about who he is and what he does.
