Welcome to the First Coast Tea Party
Will you be a Bonfire Patriot?
As I waited to board my plane out of DC, the one we were to take landed from Ohio. As the passengers came off the plane and walked past us, I thought I recognized some of them. They had this glassy eyed look; a smug expression; t-shirts with Marxist images; and dirty back packs. I thought, “Where had I had seen them before?” I boarded the plane for home and erased it from my head. I had more important things to think about such as getting home to my family.
Yesterday was spent unpacking and readying for a night event on the beach with a group of conservatives who were retreating nearby. Their mission was to decide how they could impact America in the next 12 months using the services they provide to Conservative organizations across the country. As we sat around a bonfire on the beach, the full moon illuminated the ocean and the fire illuminated the faces of hopeful young people anxious to be a part of participating in efforts to protect freedom in America. They spoke of their goals to assist educating others about our great nation and mobilizing more people to become involved in protecting Liberty. As I drove home from the bonfire meeting, the full moon lit up the road ahead of me as if to guide me home safely. I praised God for the moon and for this great group of people who love America.
When I woke up this morning, the full moon was still there shining brightly in our back yard. It was comforting to see the light in the darkness.
The computer hummed waiting for me to check my emails. As they downloaded I wondered what new news would await me from the many people out in America who keep me posted on breaking news.
Dark images of young people lying on the sidewalks of NY began to appear on the screen. Filthy sidewalks littered with trash and used condoms were everywhere. Bare chested women with painted protest signs on their breasts walked among the crowd of glassy-eyed people. More disgusting pictures loaded as I sat in stunned silence wondering why people would do this to themselves. See pictures here: Dirty Wall Street Protestors
Then suddenly I saw them. The group of Marxist t-shirt wearing young people could be seen in the crowd. Again, I thought, “Where had I seen them before?”
As the next email opened, I thought about the differences between the dirty Wall Street Protestors and those who sat around the bonfire. Those on Wall Street were using this opportunity for sex, drugs and hate-filled rhetoric directed at the wrong people. Those around the bonfire were Liberty-loving young people who felt they carried the weight of America on their shoulders. They strategized how best to keep Liberty secure and they did so with thoughtful discussion, strategic planning and moral ideas.
The next two emails had the same forwarded message – “Make $350-650 a week “protesting” on Wall Street.” The following ads were posted on Craigslist on 10/7/2011

The last article really got to me especially this statement,
“A very sophisticated, calculated, devious and diabolical plan is at work in these demonstrations; a seduction into class warfare and the loss of civility which will have a ruinous effect on our Nation.”
The differences between the two groups emerged again. Near the bonfire, the sophisticated young people were not devious, diabolical and calculated. They did not want to seduce anyone into class warfare and they were civil and hoped their plans would have a Liberty-awareness effect on our Nation.
They showed love while those behind the Occupy movement showed hate. That was the difference and that difference is big.
And that question loomed in my head again – “Where had I seen them before?” Then I remembered.
They came out of nowhere in March of this year and occupied my hometown. They came to assist in our local mayoral race with the candidate who eventually won. They did not live here. They did not have an investment here. They did not care about my hometown. They were paid to be here and had responded to another ad on Craigslist. They were paid $350 a week, put up in a hotel and given food, cell phones and other “essentials.” We caught them smoking pot as they held signs for the man who would become our Mayor.
So this will be their strategy as we head to November 2012. They will pay for people to stand on corners; pay for people to hold signs; pay for people to incite a riot or two; pay for people to create havoc; and pay for people to steal our liberties.
The “capitalists” behind the Occupy movement are paying to destroy America.
The “bonfire patrons” are planning their strategy to LIBERATE America.
I’m planning to offer my support to the Liberators of America.
Will you join me? Every man and woman needs to participate in this next election. If you do not – Liberty’s flame could go out. It’s your time to keep the flame lit and you can do it in many ways, such as:
- Getting involved in your local Get Out the Vote efforts
- Inviting your neighbors to a bonfire party to plan your local strategy to Liberate America
- Volunteering to be a Poll Worker or a Poll Watcher
- Taking your friends or neighbors to the polls to vote
- Educating those around you on the truth of Occupy vs Liberate
The full moon of our founding fathers still shines bright and our youth do too. There are more “bonfire patriots” than there are paid patriots. Be hopeful -- but -- don’t sit back and wait for them to do all the work. Your time is now. Your country needs you. Volunteer – the pay isn’t great but the rewards are!
Liberty is calling your name. Please answer the call now. Time is almost up. Do your part. If you live in North Florida, contact our office at (904) 683-3945 and we will help you determine the best way to use your talents. Become a Bonfire Patriot today!

I guess I just don't get where all of the vitriol is coming from when discussing OWS. while there are some hippies and communists, there are a lot of just plain people who are sick of corporate corruption and the whole concept of socialized losses and privatized profits. if we don't like the way in which they are sending the message, why aren't we saying: "we love capitalism and the free market. but we stand with these guys on the corruption of the system and the buying off of politicians." what's d.c. going to do about it? when are we going to get rid of Superpacs and lobbyists running the country's agenda? I feel like the tea party has been highjacked by the Republican Party and that's why we shouldn't be saying a word against the banks because the RNC won't allow it. I saw an interview with an OWS protestor who was a support of guess who? Ron Paul. Not Obama. Not Pelosi.

Just my thoughts, but when we marched on D.C., we did it in a manner of being the people that we were. Meaning, fed up with our government, taxes and the players in the Senate and Congress. We weren't paid to be there, most of us had jobs, so we couldn't stay and protest for days, weeks, much less a month. Some of us drove 12 hours to be there, participated in the march and drove 12 hours back. There were those that flew up, spent a few days enjoying the beauty of our capital, participated in the march and then went home. We cleaned up after ourselves, spent our own money, time and energy to get our thoughts out there. We weren't disrespectful (maybe a handful were), didn't use profanity, didn't get naked or abuse by-passers. If you think that because the TEA Party stands for limited government, individual liberties and moral leadership, that it also invites the freedom of "mass mobs" that break the law in the face of local police, destroy public property and disrupt the lives of people that live in the communities having to deal with these folks, then I think you may be incorrect. Some of the people there may be decent, unemployed people, who may have had hard times come upon them, if so, they're just marching with the wrong crowd!

Something just *HiT* me, Douglas are you aware you can actually 'create' your own blog here? Go to your your page and have a look around. You should be asking more questions instead of making unfounded accusations.
Again that is my personally opinion.

Doug: I'm tiring of your comments and you are tired of mine. I'm busy and will not comment anymore. You have made up your mind about me and there is no changing them. I will not try. How you think of me is not important. You are not my judge, sir.

Douglas, try reading Billie's statement very S L O W L Y and then read your comment. You are twisting and adding words, like all the others who think like you do. You all make it so obvious where you are truly coming from, IN MY OPINION.
Thinking people can see clearly...

Nice try Billie,
You said "why not set up your own party and blog and talk among yourselves". The implication is that this is MY tea party and my ilk do not belong.
Is this how you "grow the movement", by fracturing it?

Doug: If what you are saying is true, I could simply delete you off the mailing list. You are the one who tells us how to think. I said start your own blog. There is a way for you to do that inside the site. Do it. Blog and express your opinion. I do that and no one has to read them or follow them. When you debate about something I write, I have a chance to debate back. You do too. For some reason, you just don't like what I write which is why I asked why you read them. Write your own so we can comment on them. No one is following me. I am but one more person in this movement. I blog and express my thoughts. We have provided a way for you to do the same...go for it.

LOL! You really need to look back on your statements. Speaking freely comes with personally responsibilities. No one has dictated anything to you, again you are way off base and trying to pervert it all with personal attacks, period.

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...…
