With a slumping economy, a never-ending war, skyrocketing gas and grocery costs, a health care system that's too expensive for many...just to name a few problems...2008 is a very important election year.

To help voters keep up with what's going on, not just on the national level but on the local level as well, Tenth Dems University is hosting a series of Let's Talk Politics events throughout the 10th Congressional District. These gatherings give you a chance to talk with your neighbors about what's happening on the political scene today.

These sessions are open to everyone. They are led by a moderator, but what we discuss is up to you and the others who attend. The discussions we've had so far have been interesting and lively.

You do not have to register in advance, but pre-registration does help us plan for how many will be attending. To pre-register, go to TenthDemsU.org.

Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things. Among them are...a few...Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or business man from other areas. Their number is neglible and they are stupid.

-- Dwight D. Eisenhower, November 8, 1954
