A friend of mine posted this on my facebook wall:

I was wondering what you thought of all this tea party business. I really don’t know much about it, I’ll admit. I respect your opinion though, so I’d appreciate your thoughts on it

Then the same friend commented:

After looking at your pictures again, I think I just answered my own question. I should have known you’d be right in the middle of it carrying the banner.

This was my response:

If only I had a horse!

In short it’s about the fools that think because we work and go to our kids soccer games that they can do whatever they want and the fact is they were hired to do the right things for all the people. Instead they are busy spending money like crazy… seriously who would hire anyone in our government to be their personal accountant? We’d be sittin’ there like Nicolas Cage!

And instead of honest debate they want to call the people of the Tea Party names…. distracting from the true issues and they are hoping we’ll back down because nobody wants to be labeled crazy, teabagger, or racist. Last time I looked the U.S. debt didn’t have anything to do with mental illness, sucking balls or the color of a persons skin.

This isn’t a football game where it’s the donkeys vs. the elephants. This is we the people vs. the government. This weekend we’ll stuff our faces and watch fireworks but we should remember that BRAVE men and women put their lives on the line so that we would be free from a king. They had this awesome idea that we are the rulers and our elected officials are the servants and sadly that is becoming less of a reality and more of a chapter in a history book.

When someone like Joe the Plumber asks a question and gets an honest answer and our media attack him… that’s not my country!!! When the media protects the government instead of fairly informing the people… that’s not my country!!! When our sitting president stands up and mocks the citizens because they don’t agree with him… that’s not my country!!! When congress passes bills that the majority is against… that’s not my country!!! When a president would rather defend people here illegally than protect the interests of the country’s citizens… that’s not my country!!!

So let them call me a redneck for the things I believe and I’ll stand up proud and say, “Thank you!”

When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. Thomas Jefferson

Have a safe and Happy 4th July!

Today is the day. The one day that will change the next four (or more) years of your life. It is EXTREMELY important that you get out there and vote. Be prepared for long lines. Be prepared to stay for hours. Don’t think, well I’ve got other things to do. HELLO! This will be a turning point in our country and YOUR VOTE COUNTS!!

Dress in layers so that if it gets hot or cold you can be comfortable in line. Bring drinks, snacks, a bagged lunch or dinner. (Don’t drink too much you don’t want to have to go to the bathroom.) Bring a book, a gameboy, an ipod, just something to keep you from getting bored. If you have kids take them along (I did). Whip out the strollers, toys, books, activities, snacks, sippy cups, you name it. Show them the importance of voting.

Make your voice count and take the time/make the time to cast your vote. While your at it , say a prayer for our country in this time of uncertainty. It is an honor to live in the United States and we should all remember that we have a voice because of the country we live in. So stop arguing amongst each other and just VOTE! And tomorrow, no matter who wins, we need to be thankful for this great country and instead of letting the winner divide us, we need to unite and make the best of things.

~~~ELECTION NOTICE* *ELECTION NOTICE~~~

For Wide Distribution to All McCain-Palin Supporters

WE CAN WIN!!

This NOTICE will stay near the top of this blog until Election Day, and we encourage ALL pro-McCain blogs to replicate it. This is an URGENT All-Hands-On-Deck WARNING & CALL TO ACTION.

IGNORE the message being generated by the Mainstream Media and the Obama Campaign that he is inevitable. As Election Day approaches, this message will become louder and more frequent. You must ignore it, and you must DO EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER TO GET-OUT-THE-VOTE-FOR-MCCAIN-PALIN. WE CAN WIN!!! The Media does not want you to know the truth. We are poised to win.

Read the rest>>>

The Media wants BO to win so badly that they will shamelessly push this false narrative for his Campaign. They want you and ALL McCain Supporters to believe that your vote will be meaningless, that he is so far ahead it’s unnecessary to vote for McCain. They want you to believe that Obama will easily win the battleground states and even some solid red states. THEY WANT TO SUPPRESS YOUR VOTE. DO NOT LET THEM. They want you to feel hopeless. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS DIRTY TRICK.

We agree with Hillbuzz, and urge you SPREAD THIS COUNTER MESSAGE far and wide:

It’s all a head game, a fake out. All of this talk about Obama being ahead is just garbage the Obamedia shovels to make you give up and sit home so he can win. That’s what breeds Eeyores. And Eeyores giving up and staying home is why Hillary Clinton won Indiana by only 1% when she should have won it by 9%. It really is as simple as that.

So, heads up out there — if you can get Rush to talk about this stuff on air, it would do Republicans a world of good. Make as many people see the media for what they are — a paid extension of the Obama campaign — as humanly possible, keep your heads up, and let’s put another crack in the glass ceiling by making Sarah Palin the nation’s first female Vice President, while putting John McCain, a good and decent man we trust behind the Resolute Desk…

SPREAD THE WORD. FIGHT to GET OUT THE McCAIN-PALIN VOTE

GO….GO….GO…GO!!!

Don’t listen to the media this is far from over! Don’t give up! Go out and vote!

In an Obama-Biden administration you will still have a grantee of freedom of speech until you say something against them at which time you will become much like Joe the Plumber and people will be digging into your life and trying to make you look like a bad person!

Is Senator Obama’s and Senator Biden’s mocking of Joe the Plumber and the MSM digging into the personal life of an average citizen a sign of things to come?

First, they came for Sarah Palin, and I said nothing because I was pro-choice. Then they came for Joe the Plumber, and I said nothing because plumbers cost too much anyway. Then they came for…

In Germany they first came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me —
and by that time no one was left to speak up.

The point of the post was that we can’t tolerate any group that wants to suppress another or their ideas by violence or intimidation.

Lynn Forester De Rothschild one of Hillary Clinton’s biggest supporters and friends in now behind the McCain-Palin ticket. Mrs. Rothschild brings great points as to why she has switched sides.

I saw this on Fox News but nothing about it on ABC but I’m not surprised!

Aren’t you excited about this election? No matter which way it goes it will be a life changing event for our country. Are you including your kids in this? I am trying to include my almost 10 year old daughter. My parents never included me in politics, never told me how important it is to vote. Of course I’m still not sure where they stand on the whole political issue anyway.
My point is, let’s get excited! Sarah Palin is an awesome role model for our daughters and for us as well. Look at all she’s accomplished. Some days I have a hard time finding time to finish the dishes. LOL

P.S. For those of you wondering, I read in People magazine that Sarah Palin’s husband will be a stay-at-home dad if she and McCain get elected. Just thought you should know.
