Tucson Tea Party

The T.E.A. Party in Tucson, Arizona had a very good turnout of "protesters". Nearly 2,000 people showed up. Of course one major problem with most of these "protesters" is that only about 10% showed up with signs. Why did the other 90% bother to show up to a "protest" without anything in their hands to show what they stood for. Would they show up at the American Revolution without a musket? The other problem with the "protest" is that 99% of the people stayed within the walls of our park totally invisible to the public. About 20 people with signs stood on the street so other people would know that something was going on. I stayed on the street for 7 hours with mostly the same people. One person asked me if it was okay to be on the street with his sign. I assured him that the constitution said he could. Most "protestors" stood around seeing and being seen while listening to recorded conservative speeches, rock music and a few guest speakers.None of the organizers took the initiative to invite people to go to the streets with their signs and to meet back in an hour for a recharge. It was amazing to see the apathy of people passing me and others with our signs on the street. Here we have signs protesting high taxes and they didn't show any sign of support.Overall I'd say it is an extreme up hill battle trying to win support for our cause.I was also amazed at how few organizations took advantage of the opportunity to get petitions signed or to get out the word.The Libertarian Party was the only party signing people up for their cause. And there was voter registration going on, and collecting names of T.E.A. Party attendees, but not much else. A lot of missed opportunity today.

Uneasy Pit in My Stomach

Am I the only one in America who went to work all week and had a gnawing knot in my stomach every since the election?  What is that queasy uneasy sensation?  We have had two years of talking heads creating an atmosphere of fear.  And then the dreaded day ends and fate pokes her ugly head from behind the veil of the unbelievable.  How could half of Americans be so duped?  We who sat so high and proud, so untouchable have fallen so far.  It is like liberty is a  loaded gun which we passed on to our children without teaching them how to respect the power it possesses.  We sent our children off to the polls innocent and unaware of how important the ballot box is to the frail fabric of liberty's loins.  The fabric is ripped the shame is revealed.
How have we fallen so far?  We could not see the crafty web woven by the liberal loom.  We did not see how they have taken to teaching our children by proxy.  We lead our lives unaware.  The hand that rocked their cradle was subtle and sublime.  We sent our kids to school to learn, but what were they taught?  The draft dodgers who stayed in school and learned their hate so well are the teachers our kids embrace for their free thinking devil may care attitude.  How have we failed the founding fathers so badly that our president elect is a man known to choose his friends from the most heinous criminals of anti-American hate?  Are our fears founded on facts or fantasy?
If we are to believe the talking heads of conservative circles, we are doomed.  We have shaken our fist in the face of God and said "it's the economy stupid".  We have turned our backs on Israel to get more greenbacks in our wallets.  And how has this silver tongued devil managed to wrestle wisdom from over half of the Americans out there?  We say it's the economy that we are worried about and we choose the big government, tax-a-holic, pork barrel bottom feeder.
Was Hitler so smooth?  Will we recognize our liberties as they erode one by one?  We were so willing to look the other way when it was Bush and the Patriot Act.  And how did we let our fellow 'compassionate conservative' give us the SS styled Homeland Security?  Will Obama teach them to  look pretty and polished as they goosestep to his new anthem "I'd like to teach the world to sing..." as they take our children away to be re-educated.  When our wealth is redistributed to huddled masses outside our borders and U.N. troops are invited to share the spoils will we still look the other way?  We divided the land of Israel under our beloved King George and now our land is divided by God's divine comedy.
We can only find our way back when we look to His light and turn from our wicked ways.  When we stand with and for Israel without compromise then maybe we can remove the scales from the eyes of our foolish friends.  If you weren't duped be glad, but be sober.  Now isn't the time to drown your emotions in your liver.  It is time to be wide awake with your powder dry and your wits even sharper.  We can not sleep.  We must be watchful and aware.  Enjoy the pit in your stomach it will be there for at least four years, but only if you choose to care.  And care you must, for your children and their children.  There is no where else to go.  The rest of the world is under socialism.  We are one of the last vestages of refuge.  But our ship is taking on water.  We can not bail the ship.  If we don't bail the water then the ocean of socialistic redistribution will ensure that no one has anything and everyone will never fail to want again.
Take some Pepto.  Read the Word.  Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.  We can not quit.  We are the last hope and the last vestage of audacity to believe in the failed experiment of liberty.  We are the only ones left who don't believe that the experiment is over yet.

Victory At Last

It's hard after this election fiasco to declare victory isn't it?  But the plain fact is that we have an overwhelming victory.  More like a decisive final nail in the coffin of faith in the Republican Party.  I've heard 'fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me', and yet shame is smeared all over our face for believing once again that somehow that party actually stood for our values.  What a joke!  Is any true conservative fooled any longer?  Will any of us be witless pawns of their political pocketbook poaching ever again?
What fellowship does light have with darkness?  This crowd in their dark blue suits with white shirts and red ties has no true understanding of the values embraced by the red, white and blue.  They are a bunch of blue blooded, country club weeds, choking out the best and brightest conservative values with the thorns of compromise.  We can no longer go quietly into their hallowed halls of ballot worship and think we can be at peace with our Creator.  They lost this election because they treated conservatives like trailer trash at a five star resort.  We were unwanted and only needed for our votes, our pocket change, and our smiling faces waving McCain/Palin signs as if they were the best our people had to offer up on the altar of public service.
McCain is a great man and no one can doubt his integrity, and few can match his courage.  And Sarah is the darling we all clung to hoping in our darkest thoughts that the old man would die a week in office so we could secure a moral stronghold on the highest office in the greatest land in the world outside of Israel.  What is that?  How have we grovelled so low?  Are the King's children left scratching at the confetti strewn floor for tiny morsels of integrity with such a dirty conscience?  Heaven forbid.
We have the victory now.  We are no longer disillusioned.  We can finally pick ourselves up off the field of dreams and build a dream of our own choosing.  When I lived at home I dared not tell dad how to run his house, and so too we conservatives can't tell the boys in blue suits how they must embrace us and place us on a pedestal in their hallowed white washed mausoleums.  We must build on our own house.  When the enemy fills in our wells we must dig and dig deep searching for the coldest water to refreshen our partisan parched palates.  We have the audacity to hope because we cling to the Rock that holds us fast in the fiercest torrents.
No good man stays down forever.  If there is a country left in four years, then we will shine.  Even a light hidden under a basket will shine when the darkness is this thick.  But we the children of light must not hide.  We must not cower or beg for morsels ever again.  We must be bold as lions and stand up tall and proud knowing who we follow.  We wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers in high places.  Finally the bell has rung, the match is over and we have won.  It may not look like it now, but in four years the world will see the true character of the brightest and best America has to offer, if we choose to stand.  If we choose to unite not around a failed party of fat old men in moderate attire, but around the cross and the blood that sets us free from the constraints of man's design.  We must build a party and choose leaders of character, and integrity who share our values.  I choose the Constitution Party to start afresh.  I choose to abandon the Republican Party and it's tired old men who have no fresh ideas and can't relate to real people.  The people of purpose, the people of faith are no longer guided to vote from fear.  We will choose the right people who fear God first and love country more than their comfortable lives.  We can not sit this one out.  We must capture each and every election and bring change one man, one woman at a time.  The time is now the victory is ours.  Thank God we are free at last!
