What do Ronald Reagan, Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin have in common?

They are hated by the European and American Left...
The new wave of female firebrands striking fear into liberal America...
Right-wing radicals are already pinning presidential ambitions on a mother-of-five from Minnesota who calls herself a 'fool for Christ' and condemns Obama as a socialist at the head of a gangster regime...
This from Paul Harris in the UK's Observer
I love the fear I see in "Leftist Radical" writers like Paul Harris. It seems they will NEVER understand American women or Americans in general. On the Cusp of the release of Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue" book comes this piece in the UK Guardian's Observer yesterday attacking Republican Representative Michele Bachmann as being a Firebrand as well as besmirching all Conservate Republican Women who dare to speak out againt the onslaught of Socialism in America.

The term a "Fool for Christ" is used as a pejorative being used to slam Bachman as if that description of her is something to be ashamed of. It is true that not everyone in America is a believer in Christ but fully 75% of Americans "self-identify as Christians according to the American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS) done in 2001. Atheism is on the rise too but more than 1/5th of Atheists in the survey said they believed in God. What an Oxymoron.

Religion, like everything else, is polarizing, with the faithful more willing to call themselves "born again" and doubters more willing to call themselves unbelievers or atheists. George W. Bush may have been a factor: Many of the unbelievers are less worried about religion per se as about the fusion of religion and political power in the form of the new right. A fifth of the "atheists" in a recent Pew Survey said that they believed in God, a semantic confusion rich in meaning. (WSJ)
Women in the Conservative Movement, i.e.Bachmann, Palin, Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter are labled as Radical. In what world do Liberals live. These are women concerned with the actual things that are happening to our Country. The rush to Statism (the blending of Big Money and Big Government) and Socialism is real and extremely dangerous to our way of life.
All these women express a mood of conservative discontent that is becoming increasingly vocal and, some experts warn, extreme according to the Observer Article.

The politics espoused by Bachmann, Palin and others on the far right of the conservative movement warn darkly of Obama's intentions. They paint a picture of an America that is under threat from its own president. Bachmann has spoken of the possibility of the White House setting up "re-education camps" for America's youth. Palin once accused Obama of "palling around" with terrorists.
Since when has warning your Countrymen and Women about real dangers to our Republic been radical? According to the British, Paul Revere was a radical. We sit on the other side of the pond. Revere is a hero of our Revolution to free ourselves from a tyrannical British King. Now we must fight to save the Republic once more. But we are fighting with words and ideas. It scares the left silly that even Independents and Conservative Democrats are responding to these ideas.

Capitalism is not a dirty word. It is the Engine that keeps America running when allowed to do so. Freedom of the individual is paramount to our way of life. There are so many things threatening our individual Freedoms right now that most people can't keep up. One Day's news can be daunting to one person so we are forming groups to disseminate and understand the issues. Why is this threatening to the Left. They've been doing it for years.

We've been called Domestic Terrorist, Tea "Baggers" (a disgusting term for a Gay sex act), Unamerican, and they say we are indulging in "civic vigilantism". We've been called thugs, and the Angry Mob, the Brooks Brothers Brigade, Nazi's by the Speaker of the House (America's House which belongs to ALL American Citizens), and we are accused of being paid. First it was Big Business paying us and now it's the evil Insurance Companies. WELL, WHERE"S MY CHECK!

Meanwhile groups like ACORN and Code Pink are being funded to the tune of Billions of American taxpayer monies and generous Left Wing Philanthropists like George Soros. Bank sit-ins, invasion of the AIG Executive's homes by ACORN. Lewd, crude behavior by Code Pink in front of U.S. Marine Recruiting Offices and the actual banning of Recruiters in Berkley, CA.


They are the pillars of civility.

These People keep telling us our numbers are shrinking. The Tea Party Movement is Dying. We know they are wearing blinders, hoping against hope that it's true. Alas, they are wrong. The Tea Parties and Protests may indeed have fewer attendees but we as Tea Party Patriots know this just isn't so. I, myself, took my Tea Party activism and turned it into this Blog, a Tea Party Patriot, a Campaign Manager for Dan Gilyeat, a U.S. Congressional candidate for the Republican Party in Kansas District 3. We will defeat Dennis Moore next year!

Our Campaign is drawing Conservatives, Independents, Democrats, Black, White and Hispanics. We recently went to the Republican Sunflower Club meeting where they were expecting 40 or so people at a local restaurant. They had over 90 people who came to hear Secretary of State Candidate Kris Kobach and State Senator Mary Philcher Cook speak about the Constitution and State Sovereignty.

The women in the Conservative Movement aren't disappearing. Neither are the men. We are working hard to change the Republican Party. We are going to drag it back to it's roots, kicking and screaming if necessary. The Conservative Movement is growing and we will take no prisoners. We'll invite Conservatives of all Political Parties to join us for the goal of keeping our Country Free.

The left can say whatever it wants to about this movement. They do so because they thought they had it in the "bag". They thought they had defeated Reagan. How odd it was to hear them compare themselves to such a man as Obama has done...
"Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not, and a way that Bill Clinton did not,...We want clarity, we want optimism, we want a return to that sense of dynamism and entrepreneurship
What a pity the President doesn't really believe in Ronald Reagan's philosophy.

Europe and American Leftist are underestimating women like Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann. All I can say to them is Palin/Bachmann 2012 or maybe Bachmann/Palin 2012. Take your choice.

Tea Party Patriots, Now the Hard Work Begins...

This is a message to my Tea Party friends and all those in this fight whether they participate actively or not.

I am hearing an undercurrent, out there, that is calling for a "third party" to be established. This is an idea whose time may have come, in theory. It is a definitely an idea that needs to be explored. However, I would like to add a few words of caution, we must be extremely careful.

Let me pre-qualify my statements by telling you I am currently a registered Republican. Before last November I had been registered in the Reform Party, started to support Ross Perot, so I know a little something about third parties. My husband and I worked very hard in Mr Perot's campaign here in the Kansas City area. We were very disappointed in the way things turned out but still happy that we participated.

I know many Republicans blamed the Perot movement for George Herbert Walker Bush's defeat in the 1992 elections that gave us Bill Clinton. I believed that President Bush Sr, did himself in when he scared the beejeebies out of all of his conservative support with his elitist rhetoric of a "New World Order".

I can remember, for me, the precise moment President Bush Sr. lost my support in his campaign against Bill Clinton in 1992. This video, filmed during the National Grocers Association convention, was used during the election to portray Bush as an elitist snob. Too bad it was a big lie.



I let my anger at Bush's "elitism" cloud my opinion and it determined my vote for Perot. I was fooled and so was my Husband. I don't know, if I had found out about the lie before the election, that it would have made any difference, but the point is this, the incident probably cost George H.W. Bush reelection.

According to Snopes.com the story was false. It was manufactured by the New York Times. Imagine that. Times reporter, Andrew Rosenthal, who wasn't even at the Convention, exploited a news pool report from the National Grocers Association convention by turning it into an embellished, New York Times, front page story. The rest is history. It shows how one small incident can be used to manipulate an entire electorate to win elections.
We have to be smarter than that.

I re-registered my party preference and started attending Republican Party meetings last November because I wanted some structure in my political life. The Independent Party didn't provide that and the Reform Party is dying. I knew the Libertarian Party was an option but I though I needed a bigger foundation.

I didn't like the way the Republican Party was weaseled into nominating John McCain, the closest Republican clone to Obama, by the Left Wing media. It was Sarah Palin who converted me. I am hoping to make a difference along with all the other Conservative Bloggers in the 2010 elections as well as in the next Presidential election.

We have no National Press that isn't in the pocket of the Democratic Party so it will be left with the few media outlets like Fox News and Newsmax magazine , as well as talk radio to carry our message.

Our secret weapon will be the Bloggers! We need to hold the GOP's feet to the fire so they will nominate viable candidates, who support smaller government, less spending, a strong defense, and someone who can win. We need to defend free speech and talk radio from the insidious attacks coming from the Left in the House and Senate.

As Conservatives, Libertarians and Republicans we need to be united behind a National party next year. There simply is not enough time to go through the process of getting third party people on the various state ballots and elected. We simply don't have the resources to fight the Democrats as independents without splitting the Republican Party again and guaranteeing the Democrats a victory. That is what the Democrats are counting on. Divide and Conquer.

We have to get involved in our local Republican Parties and support good candidates. We can't let the Elites back east dictate the direction of the Republican Party any longer. We have to step up and it means we have to begin now. It is going to mean a lot of hard work or as the Dems put it "Boots on the Ground".

We are going to have to use the old Media when we can and the New Media extensively. We have to be very smart and savvy with the new ways of communication. Do we need slick logos and and snappy campaign slogans. Probably, but we can't just copy Obama. We can however use his template.

I urge each and every one of you that read my Blog to reach out to your friends and neighbors and band together, become an Activist, to save this Nation that we love. This is the season of picnics and Bar B Ques. We can use these small events to get other people involved.

The people who still support Obama need to be educated. The need to be shown what the results of Obama's policies are and what they are doing to businesses, large and small. If our Small Businesses start to fail any faster there won't be jobs for anyone. If Obama keeps demonizing Big Business and grabbing control of huge parts of the Business sector there will be even fewer jobs and no tax revenue streams to exploit. Unfortunately we are next on that tax food chain.

Not everyone is reachable. Obama supporters either have an unnatural affection for the man or are just plain misinformed. All I am saying is we need to put one issue politics away for a few seasons. If we stand together we will not fail.

Obama did not, contrary to what people believe, win the last election by a landslide in the popular vote. Out of 129.5 million votes there was only a 9.5 million vote difference. The electoral vote was the landslid. Obama spent most of his money and time in high electoral vote states and received 365 electoral votes to McCain's 173 for his efforts. He campaigned smart.

Some of those states will be hard to wrestle from Obama but, with each day, the evidence mounts that his policies are eroding his support. California's Proposition 8 vote should be noted. It was a shot across Obama's bow. We need to help conservative voices in that state keep the momentum going.

Please consider my words. Lets exchange ideas and form an unbeatable team. America is worth the work. I don't believe this situation can't be changed.

We can be the change that defeats the "Change" and brings all Americans Hope!

Thomas Paine's Open Letter to President Obama

This video was posted a few days ago by "Thomas Paine", i.e. Bob Basso, the great American Character Actor, with an emphasis on "character". It is an answer to the internet rumor about Thomas Paine being summoned to the White House. The answer is...

These are words, that express better than I ever could, the feelings and anxiety that all of us, as Americans, are experiencing since the meltdown of the American Dream. I only hope that President Obama will listen to this man, this Thomas Paine of the current era.

Alas, I don't think he will. President Obama has shown little inclination to compromise on any subject. He seems to think he, and only he, has all the answers to America's problems. He refuses to see that actions taken by the Congress and initiated or approved by the White House have been the cause of our rapid decline. He is supremely confident that his actions have saved America. Any blame that Obama should accept as his own is aimed at the Bush Administration.

The President can only say things are getting better for so long without taking responsibility for the current mess that we are in. Reckless spending has been the hallmark of this very new Administration. You can't give away trillions of dollars and plan to spend billions more without consequences. Someone is going to notice, and somebody is.

His supporters are finally starting to understand the position Obama has put us in. His personal popularity is still high but it has sllowly fallen since the election. His policies are starting to be challened by his supporters. Ina new Zogby Poll his Policies in certain areas are starting to show loss of support in amazing areas. The poll was conducted using only people who voted for Obama.

On Gun Control 50% of his supporters say they want current gun laws enforced instead of enacting new lasws. 65 % of Obama voters think that Sailors and Merchant Marines should be armed when operating off the coast of Somalia.

48% of supporters want a Free Market Economy as opposed to only 28% want the Government to continue on it's current path towar Socilism. One of the largest number of Obama voters to go against an Administration idea of allowing President Obama to sieze control of the Internet in the event of an emergency. 70% of his supporters balked at this proposal that was introduced by four Senators last week. The bill dosen't specify what constitutes an emergency. As Rahm says, "never waist a good crisis".

The poll is a fascinating read. Six months from now, when the shit really hits the fan I wonder where those numbers will be?

I think this next video is worth seeing again... It is a Thank You from Thomas Paine to the Tea Party Patriots and a new call for a Million "We the People" March to Washington...

Be Proud of Your Efforts...We Are the New Patriots!
Stand Up for America!
