    Bowie County BladeCutting through to the truth.

    Message from the Chairman

    Press release dated February 6, 2012

    From: Ken Autrey, Chairman, Bowie County Republican Party

    The 2010-2012 Biennium has seen many changes for the face of politics in BowieCounty. The citizens voted in 2010 for many newcomers entering the political arena.

    While there was a bit of a roller coaster ride incorporating people who had little to noexperience in our County Government, overall, the newly elected have fulfilled their job

    duties and brought new ideas to the table.

    It is the County Chairmans responsibility to work closely with the ElectionAdministrator to smoothly transition into a primary election. The State of Texas has had

    statewide upheaval regarding the redrawing of district lines. There is much debate andwrangling over the legality of the district lines. The partitioning of the State has not

    been easy, the procedure has not been smooth.

    As of Friday, February 3, 2012, the State does not have approved redistricting maps.This leads to much doubt and confusion regarding closing of filing dates and whether a

    unified primary can be planned in the near future. It is my belief that a unified primaryis the best, most practical way, to achieve the greatest number of citizen votes on Primary

    Day.

    As of February 5, 2012, no decisions have been reached and Primary dates spanning from

    March 15 to April 17, 2012 are being discussed.

    This environment is the perfect storm for unsettling questions and unfounded answers. It

    will take patience to see this situation to completion, but we must all be steadfast in ourresolve to wait for the courts decision, to work toward a smooth election, to follow the

    guidelines as set out by the State of Texas.

    Just as the Republican Party in Bowie County has undergone many changes in theBiennium 2010-2012, the State of Texas is experiencing the pains of a growing

    population, a growing economy, and growing needs to be sure that all citizens have avote that counts in their community, their county and their United States.

    Subject: Who is buying all the gun companiesFriends, this email was sent out by Guy Liebmann, one of Oklahoma'sState Representatives. I am not a conspiracy theorist but I take thewarning very seriously.From: Guy Liebmann [Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2012 6:14 PM

    Subject: Who is buying all the gun companiesRead below then check out this link - scroll down to "Notable Acquisitions" thenlook for the "Firearms" bullet.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerberus_Capital_Management

    Who is buying companies, manufacturing guns?For the last several years a company called The Freedom Group has

    been buying up gun and ammunition manufacturers. Some of the

    companies are Bushmaster, Marlin, Remington, DPMS, Dakota Arms

    and H&R. Some people worry that this Freedom Group is going tocontrol most of the firearms companies in the United States. If you

    control the manufacturers you can decide to stop selling to civilians.

    What a perfect way to control guns.

    Now if you do some digging you will see that The Freedom Group isowned by a company called Cerberus Capital Management.

    Guess who controls Cerberus??? GEORGE SOROS !!!!!!!!! One of the

    most evil men on this planet who wants to restrict or ban all civilianguns. Please pass this on to all your freedom loving friends. This needs

    to come out. Why have we not heard about this in the "mainstream"

    media? I would think this would be BIG news.

    (Soros also owns Progressive Insurance)If you don't know who George Soros is, you need to do some

    research. He backed Obama with millions of dollars and Obama is a

    puppet on a string controlled by Soros.
