2016 – How to Make Liberals Say, “OH SH..”

Given the results of the Virginia Governor’s race and the proclivity of the GOP to embrace RINO’s like Chris Christi, I believe we, as the Tea Party, must make some changes.

I have written in The National Patriot of my disgust for the GOP and the RNC and that hasn’t changed but, I do believe there are 2 ways to go about winning.

One way is to go to war with the RNC and the GOP establishment and why not?

They have declared war on the Tea Party and, at first blush, if war is what they want, we’ll give it to them.

Right?

Well…

I believe there is another way.

Put up a front so formidable they will have 2 choices.

Join us or…

Be relegated to the annals of history.

To fully explain this, we must first take a look at recent history.

The Tea Party, an organic resistance to big government, high taxes and government intrusion sprang into existence in 2009-2010 as the force behind trying to stop Obamacare.

The early success of the Tea Party can be seen in the flipping of the house from liberal to conservative control and Obama himself referred to the 2010 midterm election as a “shellacking.”

Then came the 2012 general election and the Tea Party, still green behind the ears…

Weekend Edition: Eastwood’s Sudden Impact

In life, there are many ways to know when you’ve “made it.”

Mostly it comes with success. Be it success in business or success in politics success is a measure of “making it.”

With success often comes the trappings of success. A nice home, a nice car or maybe the ability to travel at will without caring the cost.

Those are tangible examples of having “made it” but, there are other ways of knowing.

In the world of pop culture, one can also “make it” and not all examples are good.

For some unknown reason, many pop culture icons strive to “make it” through adverse behavior and there are a slew of really bad celebrity mug shots out there proving the point.

Still others “make it” by proving Darwin was right. Case in point:

Timothy Treadwell believe he was one with grizzly bears. A bear enthusiast for years, he went to live with the beasts in Katmai National Park, Alaska in 1990. After 13 years, the Grizzly Manand his girlfriend, Amie Huguenard, who shared his belief that they, and the grizzlies, were on the same page, discovered they were, in fact…Not.

They were killed and mostly eaten by their neighbors gaining them both a Darwin Award.

Treadwell and Huguenard “made it” as urban legends.

Last week, a very unusual occurrence of “making it” occurred. It was not so unusual that this man “made it” but that he, “made it”…AGAIN.

Weekend Edition: Politics and Social or, Anti Social Media

Over The last few years, one thing has had a most definite impact on politics.

The Tea Party?

Well, yes but…

Obama’s ideology of division?

Well…yes, but…

There is something else. Something bigger than ideologies and bigger than a candidate or a political movement.

It’s social media.

Social media has changed the way we view, discuss and relate to politics.

I’m not just talking about Breitbart although, he did do more to bring social media to the forefront of politics than any other thousand people I know and while his personal impact was too short lived, his residual impact will continue to reverberate and shape the future forever.

I’m talking about garden variety social media and the people who utilize it in the most basic way.

Facebook and Twitter have provided a way to broadcast individual views like never before and just like politics…Social media can bring out the best, and worst in people.

We, as individuals, are able to share our thoughts, ideas, comments, images and yes, our blogs and websites with THOUSANDS of people and it’s real time, live and at times, overpowering.

Think about it. We have watched social media organize uprisings in Egypt, Iran, Syria and in Libya, we watched images and videos of the demise of Gaddafi just moments after he was killed.

Friday Fume

Well, we did it. We made it through another week and what a week it was.

While all eyes were focused on the Convention, mine included, the crazy train rolled on, packed with liberal fools, headed straight over the cliff.

Shining examples of liberal loose marbles were everywhere.

Let the games begin!!!

It’s Friday my friends and…

I’m fuming.

Well…ONE thing is crystal clear. MSNBC stands for Main Stream National Bigot Conspiracy!!!!

After accusing anything, everything and everybody conservative of being racists…MSNBC, during the Republican Convention refused to air minority conservative speakers!!!

Leading the way down the rabbit hole was Chris Matthews.

Here is how I believe a breakfast meeting between Matthews and I would go:

A Clarion Call to True Patriots

My friends and Fellow Patriots,

It is now official.

We have a Nominee for President and Vice President.

Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan were officially placed in nomination at the Republican National Convention yesterday in Tampa Florida.

No more conjecture. No more grasping at straws or hanging by threads hoping that somehow, someone else would be nominated.

We, as conservatives, have one chance. One chance to start the process of restoration. We have One chance to start the process of rebuilding this nation. We have one chance to begin again.

One chance.

While we applaud those who, over the long and sometimes contentious primary season and through the weeks leading to yesterday’s roll call vote in Tampa, who steadfastly supported various candidates in their efforts, those campaigns did not bear fruit.

For my part, as an early endorser of Newt Gingrich, and as one who, before that, had held out hope of an Allen West candidacy, I put aside my own adherence to a single candidate for the greater needs of this nation.

As a Patriot, a Tea Party Patriot, a student of history and a Reagan Conservative, I know that no single president or single election will finish what must be done to restore this nation to its rightful place as a world leader and economic power.

This election, on November 6th, 2012 is no exception.
