Don’t Repeat 2008!

       I see a similarity in the tactic applied by the progressive media to the 2012 debates and the Progressives attention to the 2008 primaries. In the 2008 primaries the Progressives helped McCain get the momentum early which caused the conservative candidates to lose heart and drop out way too early. Huckabee stayed in until the end but didn’t get traction. McCain was easily defeated in the General election and we are suffering that outcome.

       In these debates the liberal…

How Patriotism is Convoluted into Racism.



            Today is September, 2011. One of the few constitutional functions of the United States Government is to protect the country’s borders. Mexicans are flying the American flag upside down and below the Mexican flag on school flag poles in California. Mexicans and OTMs are wading onto the United States from Mexico between checkpoints, many carrying drugs and guns. Border Patrol agents, farmers and even vacationers are being killed by these lawbreakers along our Southern border…

Marco Rubio and Bobby Jindal are Strong Conservatives but ...

     they are not natural born American citizens. They are in the same boat I am in. We are naturalized citizens. We cannot be President of the United States and by logic should not be Vice-President, no matter how much you want us. The following article explains it.

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! POPUP PATRIOTS

            A new affinity group named POPUP PATRIOTS is established to support our conservative public servants, draw attention to closed door meetings by our public officials, to increase First Coast Tea Party visibility and to stand up for freedom.  If you are able and willing to respond to a call to rally on short notice if necessary, or would prefer to make phone calls to alert those POPUP PATRIOTS that do not have email, please sign up with the POPUP PATRIOTS group and…

To Compromise Or Not …

The notion of Compromise came up in the 8/11 Presidential debate on FOX NEWS this evening.

            The Progressives have successfully convoluted so much of our English language I feel a need to start by going back to the dictionary to reread the definition of COMPROMISE:

Main Entry: 1com·pro·mise

Pronunciation: käm-pr - m z

Function: noun

1 : a settlement of a dispute by each…

FYI.

Over the years I developed the impression that Google was left leaning. I am currently researching the presidential candidates, specifically Michelle Bachman using Google for this example. I have heard that Michelle was being hit hard by the left. Not as hard as Sarah Palin. In “Googling” Bachmann I find I have to go 3, sometime 4 screens deep to find sites that I am comfortable with the thought that they might be unbiased. I know the internet search sites use a…

Note to my Rep and Senators.

I commended Speaker Boehner on dismissing BO's proposed $400B tax increase and strongly encouraged him to not agree to raising the debt limit and/or taxes in the following words:



I commend you on dismissing BO's proposed $400B tax increase. However, agreeing to a compromise with the Senate that includes any tax increase and/or raising the debt limit is just as infuriating to us voters. I want to remind you that until the 2010 elections the three legged "Captain UnAmerica" (Pelosi,…

The First Coast Tea Party and The Jacksonville Elections.

Eight months ago The First Coast Tea Party stumbled and fumbled through their first interaction with the Jacksonville City Council in an attempt to stop a second 9% tax rate hike in two years. It was initiated with a rally in front of City Hall. The Tea Party was told they are too late to stop the tax increase and it was passed with a .5% decrease at the September 28th meeting of the council. There were four or five television stations at that rally in Heming Plaza with news crews…

Often, one must step outside the circle to get a clear point of view...

QUOTE OF THE YEAR - well said. 

 

Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way that you can quickly understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic . Someone over there has it figured out. It was translated into English from an article in the Prague newspaper Prager Zeitungon on 04.28.2010. Often, one must step outside the circle to get a clear…

The Conservative Voter website is updated for the runoff election.

I have updated my election website for the early voting runoff election and on May 17. It provides an "at a glance" assessment of the candidates in each race. Since the assessment is based on information found on the candidates' website, questionaires completed by the candidates and statements directly attributed to the candidates the assessments provide a reliable visual of the candidates' position relative to the conservative platform. (I'll bet it is even more accurate than the campaign… Continue

Unions, Lobbyists, Patriots, Oh My!

Putting This In Perspective

     The unions spend a lot of money endorsing the candidate that they expect and demand will favor unions at the negotiation table. At negotiations with the politicians is when they collect on the endorsement money they put out at the elections. The unions collect dues every payday from the union members. The more members they have the more money they collect and the more money they have to endorse favorable candidates when elections come…

Zombies (My Rant)

Zombies!

They just won’t Die!!

 

We’ve gone to Washington to voice our opinion. We’ve staged tea parties against their ideology. We’ve denounced them at the polls. They have major dissenters in their own party. THEY .. KEEP .. COMING. It seems they don’t care what “We the People” think, they are hell bent on destroying us and the United States Constitution. I see no other…

My Candidate Assessment Strategy for the Tea Party Research.



Point one:



The Left refers to us conservatives as “wingers”, “extremists” “terrorists”. These are the labels that I can mention in public. They speak from their perspective on the far left of the political spectrum referring to us conservatives as being “out there”, out of the mainstream. We don’t have a defense against the labels. All we can do is deny it and re-iterate…

We have a lot of work ahead of us.

Like the Japanese, many in America don't get it either.



I emailed a US Representative candidate to fill in some blanks spots in my research. One of the blank spots was "The Tea Party Movement". The

meat of his reply: "... I have been told by a Tea Party member that is

part of the R(epublican)E(executive)C(ommittee); the Tea Party is just the new

face of the Republican Party. Being an Independent,…

A View Into The Current Political Scene

I refer you to an article in REDSTATE that is "real clear". The following sets up the REDSTATE article in the link below.

"The movement" that starts the second paragraph refers to the conservative movement as the author explains later. NEWSMAX thinks McCollum lost to Scott's money. The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) backs the incumbent Republicans and has worked against the winners in the Florida primary. John Cornyn of TX is taking a team to Alaska to help the incumbent… Continue

It Is Not Politics As Usual Anymore.





Over the last two months NEWSMAX has been pushing McCollum for the Republican candidate for governor. They were pushing hard so I sent them an email stating that they were backing a RINO and I intend to vote for a conservative, Rick Scott. They had stated in an earlier post that Bill McCollum was the only one that could beat the Democrat candidate. In the meantime a number of prominent Republicans lined up behind

McCollum.…

Eight Unbreakable Rules for Hard-Core Tea Party Activists (or Any Other Special-Interest Coalition)

I've had this running in the back of my mind since I sensed victory for our conservative movement this fall. I realize we can't claim all the glory but we patriots helped considerably. After this mid-term we need to keep the heat on the new congressmen and we need to start working on the the candidates who are up for re-election in 2012. Ideally we will have one patriot tracking each "target". The ideal rarely happens and it is not a one person project. Is there anyone else that is open to… Continue

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
