There has been much discussion within the Tea Party about whether or not the Tea Party should endorse candidates.  Correct me if I am wrong, the current wisdom is that we should not support a candidate in the primary.   I understand the perspective and as the Tea Party it makes sense.

 

As a patriot, who believes in smaller government, less regulation and a balanced budget, it does not make sense for me however!

 

While the Tea Party may not be able to take a…

By now, all of you have heard that the Obama administration is going to re-examine Federal Regulations to remove inequities and unnecessary regulations.  Many of you who watch or listen to people like Glen Beck, who are sensitized to the retoric, were immediately put on your guard.  Well, here we go again! 

 

This week,  the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) proposed new regulations intended to ensure that its core housing programs are open to all eligible…

The Florida Healthcare Freedom Act has passed both the Florida House and Senate today! Thanks and Good Work to all you patriots out there that called and wrote and marched into Tallahassee. We are not done yet. It will go on the ballot in November and probably meet legal challenges. So now we have to talk it up with voters and Vote and of course, pray!

The following is a comment by “Buddy” as part of "Buddy's" lengthy response to my last blog. I am not sure why ”Buddy” is not using his real name but combined with his comments, I suspect he may not be telling us what he really thinks or intends.…

The Jacksonville City Council recognizes the problem with the City budget but does not have the guts to take on the unions and Mayor John Peyton certainly does not either. They will need the encouragement and support of people like us to take a stand.…

Along with 40 or 50,000 of my closest friends, we rocked the House of Represenatives today! Starting at noon on the West Lawn, we could be heard by the legislators inside as we listened to speakers that included John Voight and President Obama's own second cousin who is a physician. Several congressmen who spoke commented that we could be clearly heard inside when we chanted "Kill the Bill!" At 2:30 we moved to the House Office Buildings where the chanting continued as congressmen crossed…

We are living in times when we are seeing things we never thought we would see. The US credit rating is at risk of losing our Triple A rating. States can no longer pay their bills without a bailout. Congress intends passing a healthcare bill that will bankrupt the country and all of our children and grandchildren in the process.…

Here’s one for you: What was financial and ethical life like at the turn of the last century? Financially, allot more of us lived in the country. We could only spend what we saved and if we did have credit, it was at the local bank. There were no Visas or Mastercards. If the banker knew you and trusted you, you had a great credit score. If you were not trustworthy, the banker would never talk to you…

I have been giving it a lot of thought and I hope we are properly identifying the problem. I think we are when we say the government lacks responsibility and accountability. Further, they have no responsibility for their results. We have been fighting the war on poverty for what?, 50 plus years and after all the money and all the efforts, you can’t tell the difference. If fact, we are probably…

I have found some patriots! I do not pretend to be a lawyer, but I was curious about the Supreme Court’s decision today so I went and browsed the text. It will make your head hurt! I did find the paragraph below in the syllabus of the opinion. Note the highlighted language.



“Although the First Amendment provides that “Congress shall make no law . . . abridging the freedom of speech,” §441b’s prohibition on corporate independent expenditures is an outright ban on speech, backed… Continue
