The Devil at Our Doorstep By Dave Bego
Dave Bego's tale of fighting the SEIU's advances are chronicled in his riveting new book, The Devil at Our Doorstep, which describes the impact of unions on the economic and political landscape of America. He warns of the dangers posed by giving greater control to these firmly-entrenched organizations and their political supporters/dependents.
Bego, an entrepreneur and business owner, knows
firsthand the intimidation, physical threats, character assassination and other
tactics of Big Labor having won his own battle to protect his employees from the
SEIU.
In this follow-up to his first book, The Devil at My Doorstep, Bego describes his
fight against SEIU and seeks to expose the need for Right to Work, the political
collusion between Big Labor and President Obama and the media's bias on the
union issue to establish Card Check and eliminate the secret ballot election.
Combining personal experience with business and political policy critique, Bego
presents readers with a clear case against those who would limit the freedoms of
Americans for their own gain.
The Devil at Our Doorstep illustrates,
along with vivid photographs:
"This
book is dedicated to preserving American freedoms and to the belief that all
Americans must take personal responsibility and accountability for their own
actions, personal growth and well-being," says Bego.
Dave Bego wrote this book to engage, educate and
inspire everyone from all political persuasions to act before it's too late. The
book is intended for any reader interested in business, political and economic
issues and for citizens concerned about the preservation of freedom in America.
He has been telling and retelling his dramatic story on radio and television
shows across the country for over six years.
ABOUT THE
AUTHOR: David Bego is one of the leading experts on the
Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) a/k/a Card Check and union political activities.
His expertise to write this book, as featured on the Lou Dobbs show and
countless radio appearances, stems from his actual firsthand experience while
waging war with Andy Stern and the SEIU from late 2006 until the present day.
Dave's blog has been featured on Andrew Breitbart's BigGovernment.com where he
is now a regular contributor, and he has been interviewed on Glenn Beck's Insider Extreme by S.E. Cupp. [more...]

FEARLESS By Eric Blehm
A Searing
Portrait of an Unlikely Hero
and
Fearless SEAL Team SIX Warrior
When Navy SEAL Adam Brown woke up on March 17,
2010, he didn't know he would die that night in a firefight with insurgents in
the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan - but he was ready to make the ultimate
sacrifice for his teammates and his country.
In his new book, FEARLESS: The Undaunted Courage and Ultimate Sacrifice
of Navy SEAL Team SIX Operator Adam Brown, award-winning author Eric Blehm tells the powerful, inspirational, and
deeply moving story of a dedicated warrior who overcame incredible personal and
physical challenges to rise to the elite level of SEAL Team SIX. Blehm conducted
extensive face-to-face interviews with Brown's family, friends, and teammates,
including more than half a dozen of Brown's SEAL teammates just weeks before
they were killed in action in a devastating Chinook crash.
Adam Brown was a country boy from Arkansas, a daredevil
with a fierce loyalty to his friends and family. At a loose end after finishing
high school in Hot Springs, he fell in with the wrong crowd and became addicted
to crack cocaine, an affliction that eventually landed him in jail. His family
was devastated but found the strength to help him try to turn his life around.
He met a young woman, Kelley, who would become his future wife. Her unwavering
love and belief in the man Adam could become drove him to fulfill his dream of
becoming a Navy SEAL.
Never the biggest, fastest, or strongest of his peers, Adam
persevered through grueling qualifying tests that resulted in injuries - most
considered career-enders - including being shot and blinded in one eye and
having the fingers of his shooting hand crushed in a Humvee accident in
Afghanistan. His determination to beat the odds on the way to the top tier of
the U.S. military earned him multiple commendations, including a Bronze Star
with a combat "V" for Valor, and the respect of his teammates and commanders who
called him "the best of the best - the top one percent of the Naval Special
Warfare community."
An absorbing chronicle of heroism and humanity,
FEARLESS presents an indelible portrait of a highly trained warrior who
would enter a village with weapons in hand to hunt and eliminate terrorists,
only to come back the next day with an armload of shoes and meals for local
children. It is a deeply personal, revealing glimpse inside the SEAL Team SIX
brotherhood that also shows how these elite operators live out the rest of their
lives, away from danger, as husbands, fathers and friends. Adam Brown's story is
one of faith, dedication, courage, and strength - traits that defined his life
and the lives of so many of his brethren chronicled in this book.
In the spirit of Laura Hillenbrand's Unbroken and
Marcus Lutrell's Lone Survivor, Blehm has written a benchmark account of
the SEAL Team SIX brotherhood, and an unforgettable portrait of a man who was by
all accounts FEARLESS. [more...]

"Screwed!" By Dick Morris
#1 New York Times
bestselling author Dick Morris returns with a blistering expose
of how America is being ripped off by friends and enemies alike - with the help
of our ruling elites.
How
Foreign Countries are Ripping America Off and Plundering Our Economy - and How
Our Leaders Help Them Do It
In
their new expose, SCREWED! How Foreign Countries are Ripping America Off and
Plundering Our Economy - and How Our Leaders Help Them Do
It, bestselling authors Dick Morris and Eileen McGann lay bare the
unvarnished facts as never before and suggest real, immediate, and specific
steps to stop those who undermine our interests and take away our jobs. In the
same vein as their previous crusading books, CATASTROPHE, FLEECED, and OUTRAGE,
Morris and wife Eileen McGann have documented, in great depth and detail,
exactly how the United States is getting screwed and how to stop it. They
dig up the facts, name names, point fingers, and suggest concrete
solutions - independent of partisan politics.
WHO
EXACTLY IS SCREWING US, AND HOW?
European Bankers and
Politicians: With the encouragement of our own president and the Federal
Reserve, these elites dominate our economy and want to take away our sovereignty
and our greatness.
China: The
pirates of Beijing protected by their paid U.S. lobbyists - often our former
legislative leaders - steal our technology, hack into our defense systems, and
rig their currency to take away our jobs.
Pakistan: With
friends like this, who needs enemies? They use our own military and economic aid
to fund al Qaeda and help them kill Americans.
The United
Nations: A cesspool of corruption, the UN poses in the garb of international
legitimacy and lets its member nations and bureaucrats rob us blind.
Saudi Arabia: A
country our troops have defended with their lives funds 90 percent of the global
Islamic extremism - and uses our money to do so!
Afghanistan: The
most corrupt government in the world bilks us out of $9 billion a year in
aid.
Our jobs go to China.
Foreign aid goes to our enemies. Pakistan uses our money to fund terrorists who
attack us. Saudi Arabia, which our soldiers have defended with their lives,
funds 90 percent of the world's Islamic fundamentalism. The UN is awash in
corruption; its bureaucrats steal the money we give it with total impunity.
Fifteen hundred brave American soldiers have died defending the regime in
Afghanistan - rated the second most corrupt in the world! Meanwhile, European
bankers and bureaucrats are taking over our economy and preempting our
sovereignty.
How do they get away
with it? By hiring our own political leaders, as soon as they leave office, to
lobby for them to rip us off. Former House Democratic leader Dick Gephardt, for
example, sits on the board of an American affiliate of a Chinese company that
has been denied the right to operate in the United States because it steals our
technology. Former House Republican Appropriations committee chairman Bob
Livingstone represented Libya until just before Gaddafi fell. And we have a
president who willingly obliges countries that poach our sovereignty, refusing
to stand up for our interests and our jobs as they confiscate half the royalties
from our offshore energy, subject our elected leaders to criminal prosecution if
they go to war without UN approval, and tell us what kind of land-use policies
we should pursue.

EAGnews.org is releasing a series of stunning reports to show taxpayers exactly how our dollars are being spent in government schools. We repeatedly hear from the education establishment that school coffers are being raided, requiring teachers to be laid off and programs to be cut. We hear schools are on the brink of bankruptcy and are operating on shoe-string budgets.
But local media outlets have long been derelict in telling citizens how the billions of K-12 dollars are really being spent. How can taxpayers determine if schools actually do need more money if no one is tracking where the dollars are going?
Enter EAGnews.org.
In the first of a series of reports, EAGnews.org examined the teachers’ contract for Milwaukee Public Schools for the 2010-2011 school year and discovered a slew of expensive provisions. The numbers are shocking. [more...]
