Congressman Jim Bridenstine's 40th birthday party

  Jim Bridenstine's 40th birthday party had a special guest, today.  Sen. Ted Cruz flew in and shared some great stories of their joint efforts in Washington. Foster Friess also flew in and celebrated.

  I took these photos at the special reception and press conference/photo op. Afterwards we all went over to the Tulsa Air & Space Museum for the 40th Birthday Party. Ted also spoke there.

Ted and Jim met with a special group of supporters

 at Atlantic Aviation's hangar. Ted has devoted

 the day to Connecting with the Oklahoma voters

and talking about common goals for national reform.

While not endorsing Cruz (He said it's

 just too early for him to) , Congressman

 Bridenstine did say that if Ted Cruz were

president, America would be in good

hands. 

The two lawmakers said Texas and Oklahoma 
agree on pretty much everything except football.

I was having a nice discussion with Foster, then Jim

and Ted arrived and joined us. Then the media

scurried to the photo op and I backed out.

Jim said he found a friend and ally very early in his

Washington tenure. They have collaborated of key

legislation for economic reform and energy policy.

Foster Friess and I had a great discussion

about Rick Santorum. Look for Foster to

continue to back Rick, based upon the

things Foster seemed very resolved about.

Foster may be the wealthiest man I'll ever

meet, and he might also be one of the most

compassionate.

Unlike Washington politicians, Foster gives

generously of his own hard-earned money

instead of the taxpayers'.

I don't recall what point foster was making, but he
and Ted are close allies on many key issues. This
photo doesn't look as friendly as the discussion

actually was.
