Arlen Specter - Good Riddance

Now, let me tell you what will happen next. No, I'm not a psychic, it's just so obvious when looking at these posturers in Washington pretending to be conservative.

Now they can feel safe voting against any future bills or legislation in the Senate. It'll go through anyway, so secretly they will get what they want along with the Democrats/Socialists.

Why safe? Cause they know the conservatives are grumbling, louder each week and I have heard at least 3 times on the news lately about "voters in the mood to kick out incumbents", but now they can vote against bills and legislation and "LOOK" good!

"See! I am a good Republican, I voted against it!" Yeah, well you wouldn't have before Arlen switched up.

Don't believe them. It's a scam. There are so few Senators worth keeping. I bug my two here in Georgia all the time, Chambliss emails me back at least once a month. He's trying, but I'm not sure he'll make the cut.

I hope they keep Sanford in SC. Hmmm anyone else? Let me get back to ya.

Huffpo sends "reporters" to cover Tea Parties

Of course they weren't real reporters just fans of the liberal site. And they could sign up to be a Huffy correspondent!!! Oh joy, they were so happy, bet they felt something up and down their legs... oh that was bad. Almost as bad as all the gross references to teabagging.

And they really feel they did good. But the comments were pretty lame, and the "reporters" could only concentrate on the signs from some attendees that were out of hand. There were some accusations that these extreme signs were also plants of the left but don't know for sure.

What I do know, is that any protest on either side will ALWAYS have extreme people. But, there was NO violence at any of the Tea Party protests or FairTax Rallies. Left can't always say that. The G20 protests certainly can't, I saw blood on people's faces, broken windows, vandalized cars.

And HuffPo is trying it's best to turn our protests into racial hate filled meetings. They don't get it. We do. And the politicians will get it come 2010.

Enjoy a few moments of ignorance:

FairTax - or how I spent my birthday...

Letter from Ken Hoagland at FairTax:

Dear FairTax supporter,

As the flurry of Tax Day 2009 activity settles a bit, let me take just a moment to say two very important words: Thank you.

Our April 15th efforts this year were a huge success all because of you and what you did to help the FairTax cause. Here’s just a quick summary of your efforts:

"Save the Nation" Tax Day Rallies
Some 5,000 of you packed The Jacksonville (FL) Landing and another 3,000 jammed into the Columbia (SC) Township Auditorium—not to mention another 10,000 who watched the Columbia event live online—to hear Mike Huckabee, Neal Boortz, Herman Cain, Reps. John Linder and Steve King, and many others tell America that we need the FairTax now more than ever (if you missed the Columbia rally, you can watch it here again). FairTaxers were at Tea Parties all over the nation—indeed we delivered a FairTax keynote speech to 4,000 who gathered in Columbia—and our grassroots base held FairTax Post Office events in many cities nationally.

FairTax "Save the Nation" Petition to President Obama
With your help, we delivered more than 100,000 names to the White House for our Tax Day petition! In the process, we added more than 50,000 new members to the FairTax grassroots army, including 7,000 on Tax Day alone!

FairTax Newspaper Ads
We produced and ran numerous full-page newspaper ads in the Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, Tulsa World, and Investor's Business Daily (three times in IBD alone, in fact!) powerfully making the FairTax case to a broader audience. All told, these ads reached more than 2.5 million readers with the FairTax message. And if that wasn't enough, thousands more of you downloaded and printed copies of our "We're Throwing Away Trillions When a Better Solution Exists" newspaper ad for distribution at the Tax Day Tea Parties nationwide.

YouTube Video Contest
Many FairTax supporters submitted some outstanding entries. From those we found our winning video by Paul Wizikowski. Paul, an Oklahoma-based FairTax activist, created a piece entitled, "My FairTax Story," which was honest, sincere and powerful. Take a look at Paul's winning entry here.

Grassroots Freedom Ride
With your backing, we teamed up with the state-level Grass Roots Freedom Riders to take the FairTax message on the road (including a fine custom FairTax-painted Harley ride). Look for more collaboration like this in the days to come.

Social Networking
You downloaded and posted thousands of FairTax widgets and other social networking tools to build an even bigger awareness of our FairTax Tax Day efforts. The impact is real. Our Facebook presence, for example, continues to grow including the addition of 1,000 new people in single day last week!

As you can see, we accomplished a lot thanks to you, but let's be clear: We have plenty of work ahead in the days to come. But for now, take stock of what you did and please know that with your help, we moved the dial for the FairTax nationally and our momentum continues to grow.

Keep up the great work and thanks again for your incredible support for Tax Day 2009!


Sincerely,

Ken Hoagland
National Communications Director

"Right Wing Extremists" Homeland Security

Once again, the far left parts of our government have linked ALL conservatives with groups such as the KKK. We can't oppose the government without being branded a security risk.

I'm more worried about far left extremists!

Here's a pdf of the report: http://images.logicsix.com/DHS_RWE.pdf

There is a story on Drudge from The Washington Times but I'm having a hard time getting it to open. Lots of hits slowing it down, will be interesting to read it later.

Drudge link to Washington Times

There may be some extremists out there, but I really resent them lumping so many of us in there.

Funny for the day

Best insurance policy for Obama: Having Biden as VP.

Thanks to our friend Gordon!

Captain saved - Pirates taken care of!!!

More invasions of privacy?

My other passion in life is scrapbooking. One of my scrapping buddies and sometime contributor here is Tara. She found this on another blog. Possibly making us liable for products we recommend on a blog for crying out loud. What's Next?

Blogging Liability

I don't think this has gone through yet but I just never feel comfortable waiting to see. Or lackadaisical as I made the mistake of saying elsewhere (sorry TTR).

At some point in the future

you will hear the government (Obama) extolling the virtues of his Youth Group. And if you read here you will say "oh my that sounds familiar". So read this and keep it in the back of your mind.

American Protective League

and the Wikipedia version which typically I don't like Wiki but wanted to give you two versions:

Please please please

Check out the videos on this blog. These people have our back so to speak. If you can help please do so, if not, pass the word. Thanks.

Thanks (funny for the day)

Dear President Obama,

Thank you for helping my neighbors with their mortgage payments.
You know the one's down the street who in the good times purchased
their house for no money down, refinanced it several times, then
bought SUV's, ATV's, RV's, a pool, a big screen plasma TV, two Wave
Runners, a boat, and a Harley. I was wondering, since I am paying my
mortgage and theirs, could you arrange for me to borrow the
Harley now and then?

Signed:
"Concerned in GA *."

P. S. They also need help with their credit cards, when do
you want me to start making those payments?

P. P. S. I almost forgot - they didn't file their income tax return
this year. Should I go ahead and file for them or will you
be appointing them to cabinet posts?

Moslems don't like alcohol served in restaurant

Would this get this level of attention if it was a baptist church? We are giving up our nation to Muslims. Sorry, but peaceful Muslims are welcome in our country but don't expect us to accomodate you. You came here. We are not in your land. Work around us is how I feel.

Funny for the week

CONGRESS SAYS IT IS LOOKING INTO THE BERNARD MADOFF SCANDAL THIS
WEEK.
SO THE GUY THAT MADE $50 BILLION DISAPPEAR IS BEING INVESTIGATED BY
THE PEOPLE WHO MADE $750 BILLION DISAPPEAR.
THAT SHOULD WORK OUT WELL.

Someone tell me how this is legal!!

Banks want to return their TARP money with interest and Obama thinks he can say no???? How is that legal? Is he just wanting to trash the constitution all together? This man is the epitome of arrogance!!!

Do I want Obama to fail?

I want America to succeed. That is what is important, not whether some socialist sitting in the White House succeeds. They come and go. I want our constitution upheld and Americans free to either succeed or fail on their own without interference from the government. I especially want the White House and Congress to remember that it's the voters and the states that give the power to Washington. NOT the other way around. The President, old, new or future, is an employee and a temporary one at that. It's time politicians remembered who they work for.
