Rick Torres for Congress 2010

Video: Rick Torres on Socialism v. Capitalism

Cos Cob Friends,

Please take a moment to view my latest video on the evils of Socialism and the virtues of Capitalism.


As you may know, I have twice suffered under socialist regimes. First as a child under Fidel Castro in Cuba and then again upon my return to Bridgeport when I lived in public housing. I have a keen ear to tyranny and I know that we must act now to stop it.
I ask that you please watch my video on socialism. If you believe that I am a strong warrior for freedom, property rights, and our liberties I implore you to please support my Campaign.

We are 14 days away from the primary and my big government opponents can sense that we are gaining momentum. In these final days I need your financial support of at least $50 to ensure that we can effectively get out the vote.
Your financial support of at least $50will get us closer to our goal of raising an additional $10,000 to get out the vote. Our polling indicates that we need roughly 10,000 votes to win this primary. Your support of $50 or more will allow us to reach more than 60 registered Republican voters by mail to remind them to vote for me on August 10th..
With your financial donation today I know that we can defeat my big government Republican opponents. If we let them win then voters in my district will have two big-government choices on the ballot in the fall. I am willing ready and able to defend our natural rights in Washington, but I need your financial commitment in these final days to help me do so.


Sincerely,

Photobucket

07/05/10 Conservative Congressional Candidate Rick Torres Says Cos Cob Resident Jim Himes And Republican Dan Dibecella Have The Same Flaws

Dan Debicella blamed Congressman Jim Himes for failing to pass a federal budget. The attack on Himes exposes two critical flaws in the Republican candidacy of Dan Debicella.

The first flaw is that Dan believes that passing any budget, good or bad, is better than passing no budget at all. I disagree; not passing a bad budget is courageous. This is not an attempt to credit Congressman Himes with courage; clearly the fact that Jim Himes votes with Nancy Pelosi 95 percent of the time demonstrates his lack of courage.

The attack is, however, an indictment of Mr. Debicella, whose efforts in the state Legislature have exemplified a lack of leadership needed to block bad budgets.

The second flaw I have noticed with Mr. Debicella's comments is that he exposes himself to be just another flavor of the same thing, a "good government" politician. Dan shows this by arguing against the way Jim Himes and Democrats intend to spend what's left of the "stimulus" money. Dan believes that instead of spending the money as Jim sees fit, we should spend the money as Dan sees fit. This is why Dan and Jim are different flavors of the same thing. Hey Dan, how about we don't spend the people's money and instead we give the money back to the people we took it from? Why is income redistribution in the hands of a Republican better than in the hands of a Democrat?

In the past, the Republican Party has been guilty of growing government. Not to the extreme levels of Democratic administrations, but excessive nonetheless. The Republican Party needs to rediscover its historic mission of constitutionally limited government. Clearly Dan is no constitutionally limited fiscal conservative. If Dan is the Republican nominee, the Fourth Congressional District voters will have no real choice this year.

I believe in small government. I believe in lowering all taxes as a means of stimulating the economy. I believe the United States can recover from this government-sponsored malaise by redirecting solutions away from the government. Real conservative leadership means we put our trust in the American people, not in bureaucracies.

Rick Torres

The Mr. Torres is a candidate for the Republican nomination in the 4th Congressional District.

Rick Torres Opens Bridgeport Headquarters For Congressional Campaign Against Cos Cob Resident Jim Himes

Republican Rick Torres Is Surrounded By

Supporters At The Campaign Headquarters Opening.

Rick Torres, a Republican candidate for the U.S. Congress, has opened a campaign headquarters at 2986 Fairfield Ave. in Bridgeport.

Torres, joined by supporters at the official opening, said the headquarters marks the beginning of a new stage for his campaign.

"The opening of this office demonstrates how serious I am about beating Jim Himes in November,” said Torres, who lives in Black Rock and owns the Harborview Market in the neighborhood.

“Bridgeport will be the battleground this election just as it has always been, and I am the only Republican candidate who is a native of Bridgeport with a natural base of support here,” he said.

Another Republican candidate in the race, former state Sen. Rob Russo, also lives in Bridgeport. There are six GOP candidates hoping to challenge freshman Democratic U.S. Rep. Jim Himes in the fall.

Torres is a former city Republican Town Committee chairman who was the party’s unsuccessful nominee for mayor in 2003.
