Please join the Missourians for Conservative Values PAC on Thursday, April 15, 2010, at 7:00PM at the Ramada Inn (Lotus Room) in St. Joseph for a very special forum on the future of the conservative movement in Northwest Missouri.

This event will examine how we as conservatives can best promote our agenda through a grassroots movement, including supporting candidates and taking action on ballot initiatives.

Much progress has been made in our corner of the state in the past 10 years, but there is much left to accomplish. I encourage each of you to come join us and participate in our vision of how we can best move conservatives forward in Northwest Missouri.

Please RSVP to MissouriValuesPAC@stjoelive.com

MCV-PAC knew it wouldn’t be long before Bart Stupak “earned” some special funding for his district by showing his loyalty to the President. We just believed it would be a little further in the future, not mere days after he sold out. As reported by NRCC, Stupak received more than $700,000 for airports in his district.

In today’s News-Press, Republican Committee candidate Ellis Cross defends Democrat 29th District Representative candidate Ken Shearin by saying, ““I think Ken Shearin was good when you consider his hands were tied by the city manager.”
How can someone honestly represent the Republican Party if their heart is tied to a divisive Democrat?
We have yet to see who local Ken Shearin fanatics and self acclaimed conservatives Maggie Siegmund and Virginia Weigum will endorse for the 29th District. Will they endorse their close friend Democrat Ken Shearin
or the conservative Republican candidate, Galen Higdon?

Sound familiar? Only this time it happened in Germany and no local law enforcement officials were present……..

Armed robbers raided a poker competition taking place in the Grand Hyatt Hotel and made off with an undisclosed amount of money.

A poker tournament in Germany became a real high stakes game when several armed robbers stormed the event.

According to reports, four to six men, allegedly brandishing guns, machetes and possibly grenades, broke into the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Berlin demanding money.

The gang terrorized the crowds, who then fled, causing several injuries, police said.

Video captured the madness as players at the tables and those watching quickly ran for the exits. A security guard is seen taking on one of the masked robbers, but he escaped with help from another masked-man.

The initial moments of the robbery were caught on live television, but coverage quickly cut away as people ran from the tables.

“Several masked, armed individuals entered the Grand Hyatt Hotel and fled with a haul of money,” police spokeswoman Heidi Vogt told the BBC.

The thieves may have made off with as much as $1.1 million, the BBC reported. A bag was left behind after the scuffle, and police would not confirm exactly how much was actually stolen.

The incident took place on the fourth day of the five-day tournament. According to the tournament’s website, “Nobody was seriously injured and the Main Event, High Roller tournament and Ladies Event all managed to resume within a few hours.”

The tournament is expected to end today.
