This man must be GOP’s 2016 candidate

Jan30

I am not a fan of Allen West, especially as VP, but Molotov expresses my sentiment exactly about Americans rejecting Ron Paul.  Each day that I think that we had to endure Flip vs Dip, instead of having Ron Paul seriously makes me wonder if America is worth saving.  There still must be more 10 righteous people in America, because she hasn’t been destroyed yet.

 

Lamar Alexander is a Democrat

Jan29

No surprise here.  “too moderate” is being kind.  He’s not moderate.  He’s a statist.

Where are the Tea Party and liberty groups to throw the big government tax and spender out?  Oh yeah, they were busy working to pull 6% for Corkers opponent in 2012. 

There are several problems with the grassroots groups in Tennessee.  Some of them are phonies.  Others spend too much time on ra ra rallies.  Egos are a factor causing strife.  Failure to prioritize goals is another.  While the Republicans have gained a super-majority in the State legislature, grass roots activism has little to do with.  It’s mostly fear of Obama and failure of Democrats to offer anything to counter Obama mania.

Duncan’s Double Speak Disgrace

Dec3

Congressman Jimmy Duncan showed what a two face double speaking disgrace he is last week, when he paid “tribute” to Ron Paul, and announced that he’d Chair the reelection campaign of globalist scumbag Lamar Alexander.  Duncan lacked the courage, guts and principles to endorse Ron Paul for President, instead endorsing the Party’s chosen elitist flip-flooping wet noodle Williard Mitt Romney.  It is a disgrace to Ron Paul to talk about his virtue and unwavering stand for freedom and less than a week later sing the praises of a globalist big government scumbag who is the very epitome of what you are praising Ron Paul for not being.  I, for one, see through your phoney double speak Mr. Duncan. 

All of Tennessee federal legislators need to be thrown out on their heads.

Call Duncan’s office and tell him you aren’t impressed with his hypocrisy.

The End of an Era: Ron Paul’s Farewell Speech

Nov15

I AM grateful to God Almighty that I was able to see one righteous man and support his candidacy in a gang of thugs, whores and overlords, also known as politicians.  He is my hero and a rare example that one can have power but not abuse it.  One can have power, but use it to promote liberty.  One can have power, but not become corrupt.  One can have power, but remain true to their principles, 30 years later.

His prognostications have come true unfortunately.  We should heed his advice now more than ever.  Some foolishly stated that the sociopath Newt Gingrich was the smartest man on the stage.  Heaven help us because that would mean the smartest of us is a sociopath. 

Conservatives just learned what happens when you choose a candidate who has taken both side of nearly every important issue, sometimes in the same week.  Santorum is the kind of candidate who would have opposed women being able to vote, justifying his position with some sexist statement like women are too emotional to vote.   Rick Perry could be described as a vacuum head, but I think a better description is that his brain is like split pea soup, mush.

God gave us a Thomas Jefferson.  Actually he gave us a better man than Thomas Jefferson.  Ron Paul was a humble country doctor who believed that Medicare was unconstitutional and delivered babies for free, rather than take government payments and never performed an abortion while delivering 4,000 babies.  Some yelled that he wasn’t pro-life.  Nothing could be further from the truth.

A return to first principles in a republic is sometimes caused by the simple virtues of one man. His good example has such an influence that the good men strive to imitate him and the wicked are ashamed to lead a life so contrary to his example.- Niccolo Machiavelli

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Matthew 5:9

I desire to be a peacemaker and Ron Paul is a great role model, but peacemaking is nearly impossible in government.

Our solutions don’t lie within government.  They never have.  We need to stop our rebellion against God Almighty and he will heal our land.
Let freedom ring!

What Now?

Nov13
First, the facts: Across the state of Tennessee, our libertarian candidates received a combined total of 49,178 votes. And nationwide, Gary Johnson received 1,139,562 votes, a Libertarian Party Record! Thank you for all your support.
Where we go from here

Being a Libertarian means standing up for your principles at every turn. And that’s exactly what you and I did this election. We stood up together for what we believed in and voted FOR someone rather than voting against the other guy.

I heard someone say today that, “Now that the election’s over, it’s time to stop talking about politics.” I’ll admit that’s pretty tempting. It’s been a long and trying journey and a lot of resources have been spent. But should it really be time to stop talking about it? I would submit to you that now is the best time to talk about politics! It doesn’t just happen every 2 or 4 years, it happens every day! Today a majority of voters will turn their attention away from their elected officials. They will quit paying attention. This is why the government is such a mess.

I am going to ask a favor. Keep paying attention. Pick a local topic and write a letter to the editor. Identify yourself as a libertarian and say why you do or don’t agree with something. Call in to a radio show and tell them why you voted for Gary Johnson and our other libertarian candidates. Share on your social media accounts any posts on the Libertarian Party of Tennessee’s website or the National Libertarian Party’s website. if we all do a little it will turn out to be a lot, isn’t that right?

This will help us maintain some visibility between elections, which can only help promote our Party and our philosophy.

Plato once said, “One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.” It was as true then as it is now. We’ve all worked hard and while it is nice that the election’s behind us, the fight for Liberty is never-ending
