      <title>Food Stamp President? </title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;
	Immediately after former Speaker Newt Gingrich called President Obama &amp;ldquo;the food stamp President,&amp;rdquo; the Left went characteristically apoplectic.&amp;nbsp; Regarding the President&amp;rsquo;s comment, James Clyburn, the third ranking Democrat and highest-ranking black Congressman likened it to Richard Nixon&amp;rsquo;s Southern Strategy.&amp;nbsp; To author Walter Mosley, it was a &amp;ldquo;shout-out to racism&amp;rdquo;.&amp;nbsp; &amp;ldquo;Divisive&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;inaccurate&amp;rdquo; said the NAACP.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MichaelWilliamsForUsCongress/~4/Sjp7SFeRIOk" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Answering The Call</title>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;
	For several weeks, former Texas Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams has been actively recruited by local, county, state and federal leaders to run for Congress in Congressional District 25. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	Michael Williams has devoted his entire career to public service. &amp;nbsp;He has shown an unwavering commitment to leading the conservative movement and growing the Republican Party.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	Congressional District 25, which includes 13 counties from Hays up to Tarrant County, is in need of a candidate who will fight for our freedoms, has demonstrated an ability to win and a commitment to protecting liberty. &amp;nbsp;While serving on the Railroad Commission, Michael Williams represented the voters of Congressional District 25 and the people of Texas with distinction and honor.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;u&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Today, Michael Williams is answering the call from the GOP, the Tea Party, and conservatives all throughout CD 25 and will run for the Republican nomination for Texas Congressional District 25.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	This has been a clear calling of service, borne organically from the grassroots and elected leaders from every county in CD 25. &amp;nbsp;Precinct chairs, Tea Party leaders, GOP chairs, local elected officials, and Republican clubs have all recruited Michael to lead the fight in Washington as a representative of their district. &amp;nbsp;And today he is proud to stand with them as a candidate for CD 25.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

      <description>Friends,  I believe that when you run for elected office, you should be held to a higher standard of transparency. That's why Donna and I have posted our 2010 &lt;a href="https://s3.amazonaws.com/MLW_Taxes/140729753.pdf"&gt;tax return online&lt;/a&gt;. You may not be interested at all. But if you are, it's important that you know how the person who is asking to represent you makes ends meet.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MichaelWilliamsForUsCongress/~4/Lq21AcHZGRg" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>
