Our government is already over taken by corporate backed lobbyists and now the big money in Washington is unfettered in its ability to control our Nation. Both sides of the isle have continually bowed to corporate influence. We already have a congressman and two senators in this state who are bought and paid for by Energy Solutions. Now, instead of having to hide the money donating through corporate executives, these corporations can freely purchase the politician of their choice. Invest in America. Buy a Congressman! A Nation by the Corporation, of the Corporation, and for the Corporation. The majority on the Supreme Court should be ashamed for their behavior and total disregard for over 100 years of legal history on this issue. The Banks are now able to bank roll any and all politicians who they approve of and control all media markets. Heaven help our great nation from falling into the abyss of corporate greed and corruption.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><p>Be a part of the movement. <a href="http://www.actblue.com/page/morganbowen">Contribute using ActBlue</a>.</p></div>Morgan Bowenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07470247794937998577noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659936314037692631.post-6524867035051072382010-01-12T14:27:00.003-07:002010-01-12T14:35:13.671-07:00Peter Corron Announces for Utah GovernorI just attended Peter Corroon's campaign announcement in Ogden.

It is clear that Bishop's sugar daddy is Energy Solutions. They must have given him a bye on the bi partisan vote last week so he could have some political cover. Our dear Senator Bennett would love to put the breaks on the bill in the Senate. Wait, Bennett has taken thousands from the execs at Energy Solutions as well.

Rob Bishop's blind towing of the GOP party line. On the energy crisis: <blockquote>Three-term incumbent Bishop has run several bills this year focusing on rewarding conservation, increasing production of traditional fossil fuels and alternatives and building refineries, pipelines and power lines to create and distribute energy.<br /> <br />He wants to see an immediate increase of leases for oil shale production and oil drilling in offshore locations as well as in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.<br /> <br />"There has been once again an arbitrary prohibition against [off-shore drilling] everywhere but the Gulf of Mexico. Even the Democrat side realizes there is not enough supply," said Bishop, a former Brigham City high school teacher and Utah House speaker. "In ANWR, we know there is oil there and a lot of it. There is no logical reason why it shouldn't be done."<br /> <br />Bowen, a high school LDS Seminary teacher from Logan who has never held a public office, has his own plans.<br /> <br />He would also like to see America wean itself from foreign oil. He is OK with drilling on public land, and he wants to provide incentives for oil companies to drill on leases they already have. He also wants a much greater focus on renewable energy, such as wind and solar, and agrees with nuclear power in places that have more water available than Utah.<br /> <br />His biggest disagreement with Bishop is over the timing of the bills.<br /> <br />"Where was Rob Bishop two or three years ago?" Bowen said. "We lost a lot of opportunities." </blockquote> Good question. The article also describes how Bowen distinguishes himself from Bishop's excuse making on importing radio-active waste into Utah, and the spending and deregulation without oversight that lead to our current economic troubles.

Please take one for your home and set a goal to place many more with your friends and neighbors.</p><p>Signs may be picked up at the Salt Lake County Democratic HQ, the Davis County Democratic HQ on Main and Gentile in Layton, the Logan HQ at 55 W Center or email and we can deliver if necessary. The signs are free but if you have a little (or a lot) of money to <a title="Please donate what you can." href="https://secure.yourpatriot.com/ou/bfc/bowen_2008_primary/donate.aspx" target="_blank">donate</a>, to help offset the cost, I welcome it. </p><p>With your signs, be sure to place them on private property with permission and stay away from putting the signs along the freeway or on public property.</p><p>Several of our signs have been stolen.

I love this day! I have always loved my family pioneer stories. My father was the youngest of 16 children and grew up in Spanish Fork, Utah. His grandfather and grandmother, William Bowen and Ruth Jones Bowen, met on the pioneer trail in 1856. They later married and with their extended families settled Spanish Fork. There are many great family stories all across Utah about heroic pioneer experiences. </div><br /><br /><div>My father passed away in 1997 during the 150 anniversary of the first pioneer trek into the Salt Lake Valley. I knew some of our family history but when I was sorting through some of his personal belongings I found several journals and interviews with my pioneer ancestors. What a treasure. I learned that my great-grandfather and great-grandmother were both stranded with the Martin Company at Martins Cove, Wyoming during an early winter storm. They suffered a great deal along with hundreds of others. The one thing I appreciated about their experience was their desire to work together to make it though their journey. Everything we have today was built on the great people of the past who sacrificed so we could have a future. Enjoy the parades, the picnics, the family, and the fun. But always remember those great pioneers who have paved the way before. </div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><p>Be a part of the movement. <a href="http://www.actblue.com/page/morganbowen">Contribute using ActBlue</a>.</p></div>Morgan Bowenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07470247794937998577noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659936314037692631.post-20213258920664831562008-07-21T14:46:00.003-06:002008-07-21T14:55:30.229-06:00Morgan Bowen Speaks out against Energy Solutions<p>My father just released this Video speaking out against Energy Solutions and their recent campaign contributions to Rob Bishop.

That is ridiculous, that needs to be changed. But what to do?<br /><br />It doesn't matter if you are a rock-solid conservative that doesn't believe in Global Warming or if you Bike twenty miles to work every day to reduce your carbon footprint. Everyone, Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Independents, Constitutionalists, and Greens, have a good reason to start trusting renewable energy sources. To name a few<br /><br />Are you sick of paying $4.00+ for gasoline?<br /><br />Do you want to reduce our dependence on foreign oil?<br /><br />And of course do you want to Breathe?<br /><br />People may say "WHAT?" on the last one but yes, if we keep the way we are going, our breathing will be compromised. Just look at China and the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">pollution</span> issues for the Olympic Games.

Illegal and unconstitutional acts should not be forgiven, long after the fact, regardless of excuses, or party pressure.<br /><br />"Members of the Utah Congressional Delegation, including a member of my own party, have already shown unfortunate judgment on this bill and, because of the surrender of their oath to protect the Constitution, set adside by these US House members, Hatch and Bennett have the opportunity to stop this egregiously un-American bill.</blockquote><br /><br /><br /><blockquote><br /></blockquote></span></span></span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><p>Be a part of the movement. <a href="http://www.actblue.com/page/morganbowen">Contribute using ActBlue</a>.</p></div>Miahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11560467642365775865noreply@blogger.com1
