Welcome to the First Coast Tea Party
It's too exciting not to post: We've been vindicated by the TU
Today is Sunday, May 22, 2011 and we must give kudos to the TU. I’ll even refrain from calling them the Tiny Union since they made headways today to publish a story with facts vs opinions.
Article: The front page headline of the TU states “Brown won it on issues, advisers, ground game”
We thank you for this great report. It appears you finally did some factual reporting. In doing so you vindicated what the tea party members said, posted, blogged, and pushed out as far as we could without a media giant behind us and with a small donation bucket from our tea party members. Our vindication came with these facts made public in the article:
- Quote: “The ground game – paid workers who fanned out across the city to personally contact voters…”
- Vindication: We said the workers were PAID and we were up against a political machine.
- Quote: “Craig Kirby of Washington, DC, Brown’s campaign manager for the second election…” and “Bacote, a Maryland resident who teaches canvassing techniques for the Congressional Black Caucus…”
- Vindication: We said “out-of-towners” were here and would frame who our mayor would be
- Quote: “In the end, the victory came because of all of those things coming together: the support of Republicans…”
- Vindication: Our questioning the cross-over of Republicans to a Democrat and asking them why they just didn’t announce they were really Democrats in their hearts. We still encourage them to move to the correct party that they are called to instead of staying in the GOP as RINOs.
Article: The Metro page headline: Holland stands by mayoral race vote tally
A stolen private email among tea party leaders about the mayor’s race and how we could learn from it was put into the hands of Abel Harding. He chose to put it into an article. Thank you for this article. We are proud to ask that every single vote count. That’s been the mantra of the left so we think they were on to something here. Joseph Stalin once said: “It’s not WHO votes that counts. It’s who COUNTS the votes.”
Article: Editorial – Our next mayor has a long road ahead
“He did not meet with tea party leaders. He should invite them to offer concrete suggestions.”
Thank you editors! We asked to meet with Mr. Brown over and over again during his campaign. He ignored us. He did not fill out our questionnaire. He did not meet with the board. He did not attend our Mayoral Town Hall Debate. He did not respond to any of our requests. We were stood up and we hope he heeds your advice. We await his call.
So today the Tea Party can proudly say – “We told you so.” You may have made fun of us for saying out-of-towners were here and paid workers were smoking pot outside the GOP headquarters (we called them Zombies since they had glassy eyes from the pot) BUT today you proved us right. Thank you TU!
And a special recognition to the team behind Alvin Brown – good job.
We learned a lot and we’ll see you in November 2012.

They had their chance, to quote one of my more favorite movie lines "I don't blame people for their mistakes, but I expect them to pay for it". Now that the money has left they have to rely on the same public they choose to betray. A lesson needs to be taught. Let them survive off the brown voters money.

The Times Union may have conceded some of their progressive tendencies in publishing a sample of facts, a deviation from modis-operandi, but they remain, in my opinion, a meaningless entity just the same.

That is good Patricia, they need to hear from us and we should not be silent, people need to be questioning what is going on.

I need to correct an earlier comment I made, so as not to mislead anyone:
I wrote: 'Democrat Lyndon Baines Johnson stuffed the ballot boxes in Texas to become President of the United States, with his narrow stolen win being upheld at the Supreme Court level, only to be proven years later to have been a fraud."
Correction: Lyndon Baines Johnson stuffed the ballot boxes in Texas to fraudulently win a seat in the United States Senate.
I knew LBJ became President after President John F. Kennedy was shot and killed, for he was Kennedy's Vice President. And, it was in Texas that JFK was shot and killed. He was being driven in a convertible, with the top down, and sitting beside Texas Governor John Connolly. First Lady, Jacqueline Kennedy, was also in the car.
Sorry if I confused anyone. Apparently, my fingers went on ahead of my brain

JL, I let loose on the state organization about not organizing precincts and the whole 9 yards. They are hearing it from a lot of places right now I think, but here, because of things that very well might have been beyond our control they have placed a progressive liberal in our mayor's office with the help of our local newspaper and tons of outside help and tons of money!

Meant to add communication is the key and the Socialist Progressive Liberals have it down to an art.

JR, i told the girl it was not her fault but the RNC needs to understand and be aware of what is going on in every city, county and state. Apparently the DNC is very well informed. I asked her to tell who ever is supervising and to pass it on. I am going to email the National community, the state and the local and give them a ear full what i think is their failure to come out and support candidates and to help get out the conservative vote, i am also going to tell them that the majority of people that i have talk to want to get back constitutional fiscal conservatism and smaller government, that is the mantra they need to be promoting, iF they want to keep their party together, this whole progressive is a cancer and is even eroding the Republican party and destroying our country. Those are my thoughts and feelings.

JR, your comments make great sense and do remember election night them saying over and over all the precincts weren't in and amazingly, they were the ones that won the election for Brown, so yes..............it is something that should be very carefully looked at!

I'd take Liz over her husband ANY day and Barbra over hers. Oh yeah thanks to the GOP Bob Dole was a BAD choice...we need INFORMED voters not just votes.

It's too bad JFK didn't live to see that Executive Order put into full force and effect, but we do know that LBJ was a powerful force while serving in Congress and still had strong and supportive allies there. And, it was his call, having succeeded JFK, whether to enforce it or not. I don't know what LBJ's position on the Federal Reserve was when he was a Congressman, but would be interested in finding out, and who in our government was actively involved in the Fed at that time. The Fed has historically operated without transparency and it's been almost impossible to find out much about them since the establishment of the Federal Reserve in the early 1900's. The law establishing the Fed was passed during the Woodrow Wilson administration, I believe, and he assumed the Presidency in 1913. Everyone should take a look at all the liberal progressive laws passed from 1913 through the end of Franklin D. Roosevelts four terms as President, two of which were unconstitutional.
No, Robert, I could not place my trust in any judgment, opinion, or anything espoused by Earl Warren and the Warren Court. And, with regard to Proverbs 16:5, I don't imagine either Johnson or Warren fared too well in the hereafter. And, Barack Hussein Obama would do well to read and heed Proverbs 16:5. Plus, Obama proved your point that "Democrats are 'historically unscrupulous' and without honor!"

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...…
