Governor Pawlenty was on FOX News last night talking about President Obama's plans to freeze "non-security" discretionary spending. Said the Governor:
The freeze that the President announced a day or so ago ... is kind of like somebody eating three Big Macs and then deciding they're going to control their weight by ordering a Diet Coke. It's an acknowledgement of the problem. It's at least a small step in the right direction. But for all the reasons you've been talking about, it's really not a freeze.
The mission of this PAC is to put freedom first again in America by fighting to turn back the growth of Washington.
In its current issue, the Economist offers a good reminder about how fortunate we are to live in a free country – and how fewer people across the globe are able enjoy the fruits of liberty. Writes the Economist:

In the race to replace Senator Ted Kennedy in Massachusetts there is one issue that stands above the rest - health care reform. The outcome of this special election will have a lasting impact on the health of our nation, both literally and figuratively, for years to come.
Electing Republican State Senator Scott Brown is effectively our last best chance to stall the disastrous health care bill being forced though Congress.
Hi – welcome to what will hopefully be the first of many posts on this blog.
This is a big day for the Freedom First PAC. We’re launching this new website in conjunction with our effort to get Scott Brown elected as the next U.S. Senator from Massachusetts. If Scott wins, he’ll be the 41st vote we need to defeat the Democrats’ ill-conceived government take-over of health care.
Another goal of our organization is to urge our leaders in Congress to get control of the Federal budget.
As we begin 2010, I wanted to take a moment to share with you all that we've accomplished since we launched our political organization, Freedom First, just three months ago, and give you an update on what we have planned for next year.
