A House Divided….

With Henry Ross’s announcement Thursday that he will seek the Republican nomination and attempt to oust Congressman Travis Childers in November of 2010, the First District GOP is once again setting itself up for a possible let down. Senator Alan Nunnelee and Senator Merle Flowers are rumored to be running as well. Nunnelee has been making his rounds on a listening tour across the district but has yet to formally announce. Three people all attempting to convince the citizens of the First District that they are the right man to take on Travis Childers. A three way split among the GOP faithful. Didn’t we go through this last year? And it was a complete and total disaster! As the Republican Party is looking for its identity so too are the Republican’s of the First District searching for someone who will represent them and be a viable candidate against Travis Childers.
What is needed from the GOP is a united front, solidarity and loyalty to one candidate, period end of story. We all saw what happened in 2008 when a three way race happened in the primary. So what happens now, three more men trying to out conservative the others. Three men asking for money to take on each other with and no doubt someone will get his feelings hurt and that person’s supporters will not support the person who ultimately wins the nomination. So after these three bloody one another up in the primary, the national Democrat Party will dive in and steamroll the Republican candidate. Because let’s face it Travis Childers wouldn’t stand much of a chance without the backing of his progressive buddies in Washington.
It is so very true that a house divided cannot stand and that is exactly what is happening to the Republicans in the First District. And until someone musters the courage to speak to the GOP in the First District and say “follow me, I will show you the way,” divided we will be.

The 9.12 Project.....

For far too long we have been asleep at the wheel, and as we voted, we were all hopeful for a better America and all we have really gotten is more empty promises. Our fate is up to us. Our destiny is yet unwritten. WE THE PEOPLE control our destiny! We and we alone determine the direction that our country will go and it is time that we all decide if we are all in or if we will continue to live with our heads in the sand. Freedom you see is not free at all, and if we do not stand up and fight for Freedom, well, as we have known her, she may be lost for good.

Tonight Glenn Beck of the Fox News Channel unveiled The 9.12 Project. A very simple and straightforward idea actually, most of the brilliant ideas usually are simple. 9 Principles and 12 Values. And we remember the people we were on 9-12-2001, the day after the world changed for the USA. We stood in line to give blood, we held hands with people we didn't even know, we prayed for souls we would never meet. We became the best we could be, because politics on that day and in the weeks that followed, didn't matter, because we weren't Republicans or Democrats, we were Americans.

So let us return to that time and be those people of 9.12 again....

WE SURROUND THEM!!!!!!

Some of you know me well; others of you who will receive this may not even know me at all. I want to let you know I am first and foremost an American. I believe in the greatness of the American People and this Country. I believe that our politicians continue to divide us intentionally along party lines, because they know that if they can only keep us divided, then we will never unite on the principles that connect us. I want to begin to help change that. We are Americans! White, Black, Red, Yellow, it doesn’t matter what the color of our skin is, as Dr. Martin Luther King said it should be the content of one’s character. I believe in our character. I refuse to accept that the greatest, most innovative, most prosperous country on the face of the Earth is on the edge of meltdown.

I know you feel it. I know you feel that our politicians (Republican, Democrat, and Independents) no longer listen to WE THE PEOPLE. And you know what? To a large degree you are correct. And that is exactly what they want from us. They don’t want us to pay attention to what they are doing, what kinds of laws they pass, how much, and what kind of things OUR money purchases and supports. We are simply to fall in line because they know better than we do how to spend OUR money.

They need us, oh yes they need us, every two or four years when they need campaign contributions and volunteers to get the vote out so they can go back to city hall, the state capital, the nation’s capital, and “do the work of the people”.

Well I have news for you, YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!! There are more and more people everyday who are waking up to the reality that our government no longer answers to us! The government actually does work for us. That is the way the constitution set it up. WE THE PEOPLE may have been ignored or forgotten in Washington, but We have not forgotten to whom they answer.

Below are 9 principles. Read them and if you agree with 7 of them, follow the link at the bottom of the list. Read the website and then, if you read it and feel that you can do what it talks about.
But above all if you agree email this to all your family members and friends. We are not alone and as the website says soon we will find out just how un-alone we really are.

The Nine Principles

1. America is good.

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.

8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.

You Asked For It and You Got It.....Change Has Come to America!

Tonight Barack Obama was elected President of the United States. The Coronation of this man as the next president has been 21 months in the making and from time to time it appeared that there were holes in his armor, but alas, America has decided that change is needed. But as the saying goes, be careful what you wish for, you might just get it. So sleep well tonight my fellow Americans, and get ready for an America unlike any you have known before. Because change is coming more rapidly than you think.

Has Liberty Died?

What has happened to this country? Has our greed overtaken our understanding of sanity? Have we lost all touch with our true capitalistic system? Has the era of "fairness" taken over completely? Bailouts. Covering Commercial Paper. AIG. Fannie and Freddy. Bear Sterns. Merrill Lynch. Examples seem to be endless and now late on this afternoon during the evening commute, Tsar Paulson, decides it is the responsibility of the Treasury for the United States Government to buy stock in financial institutions, to stabilize the financial markets. Uh, wasn't that what the $700 billion bailout package was supposed to do? And the $900 billion for commercial paper? What of that Mr. Paulson?

We have allowed Pandora's Box to be opened! Yes we have because "We the People" elected these idiots! And now we have no one who will stand up to them! Where are the "Real Americans"? The ones who believe in this country and believe that it is worth fighting for, even dieing for! There are out there you know, just waiting, biding their time to step to the forefront and be the leaders we long for. I know this to be true, with every ounce of my being.

Have faith my friends. Let not your heart be troubled. We will survive and we will be stronger, because "Real Americans" are about to remove the weasels from office, by beating them in the realm of ideas. The American people know what real leadership sounds like, what it feels like and soon, very soon, those men and women will rise, and the bells of Liberty will once more ring throughout this great land.....And all will be right in the world once more.

When Politics Matter More Than Solutions.....

I am shocked that no one has thought of this scenario yet! What if Pelosi giving this speech on the floor prior to the vote was all part of a scheme hatched by the Democrat Leadership? 95 Democrats voted against this bill and then Barney Frank comes out and says "the Republicans killed this." However let us call into question that had the 95 Democrats voted for this measure, it would have passed! But I don't believe the Democrat leaders wanted this bill passed and that is why Nancy Pelosi gave that partisan speech before the vote. So now the Democrats can try to blame the Republicans and unfortunately none of the Republicans in Congress will come out and say what I stated above. If 95 Democrats vote for this bill it passes so don't try to hang this on the Republicans!

The Great Communicator......

The Liberal Arguments are the same now as they were in 1964, the enemies of liberty are different, but the arguments of the ignorant endure time.....
