Albuquerque Tea Party


New Mexico Watchdog 

The Albuquerque Tea Party urges readers to subscribe to Jim Scarantino's new web site, New Mexico Watchdog.
New Mexico Watchdog is a project of The Rio Grande Foundation.


Jim Scarantino, a New Mexico columnist and blogger, was first to break the story of the phantom congressional districts reported in the Obama Administration's stimulus spending accounting. Jim Scarantino also broke the story regarding Lt. Governor Diane Denish using $225,000 in federal funds to pay for a driver to shuttle her to meetings and press events, a contractor to take Christmas pictures and write Christmas cards, a lawyer to make hotel reservations, opinion polling and public relations services.
 
As we prepare for the 2010 elections, investigative reporting such as this will be crucial in keeping all voters informed and armed with facts.

Jim Scarantino's New Mexico Watchdog site and Paul Gessing's Rio Grande Foundation share similar values with the Albuquerque Tea Party.  However, each remain separate entities. 


 
Thank you for your continued support!
