Getting Ready for DC Rally and the 2009/2010 Elections

Dragging Both Parties Into the Light

The Gross National Debt

Thanks to the 400+ people who came out to our Organizational Meeting at the Civic Center On August 15. We appreciate the Support. There will be more protests, including the Sept 12 Rally In Washington DC. We will be putting information on the site about several options to get to DC on the cheap.  However, if you can get there…get there. This is history in the making.

Right now protests are a “rear guard action” until we can get leaders in DC that understand our principles. That is our long term goal. Keep asking questions like this…we have them on the run. My recent op-ed in the Roanoke Times. Not only are your wallets being emptied, your rights are under assault at every turn. Check out this video on gun control. We have to keep up the pressure on the idiots that are running our country until we can get real leaders back in DC. Here’s a great way to do this…a permanent link for this is available in the link section.

As an organization, we will soon be a Non-Profit. We have an Ad Hoc Board of Directors selected and we rolled out the 4 principles that we expect from elected officials.

1. Rule of Constitutional Law and National Sovereignty

2. Limited Government based on 10th Amendment Federalism

3. Private Property and Free Market Economics

4. Individual Liberties

We now have 5 Committees that are actively working to make a difference.

Accountability Committee: Compiling information on political activities and voting records of all candidates

Events Committee: Planning additional events including protests, rallies etc.

Outreach and Funds: We think our principles should appeal to all Americans. We plan on reaching out to all groups with this message. We also need money to further all of our causes. This group would focus on these issues.

Organizational Committee: Recruiting and building groups to affiliate with our movement. We have groups involved in the tea party who are concerned with specific issues. We hope to create a coalition of groups who support our principles so we can unite and create a huge group to further our principles.

Campaign Committee: To provide information and support to potential candidates who support our principles. To help impact elections through voter registration and other activities.

Nancy Pelosi and the Dems think that the movement that is derailing their agenda is coming from an organized group. We are not.  Imagine the power we will wield when we really are organized. That’s our goal. More to come once we complete our initial action items.

Please contact us (info on the tab above) if you want to help. Just because you weren’t there Saturday…doesn’t mean you can’t help. Read more

As The Kettle Boils…

The latest news on the movement. Check here for news, views and the latest rants. Info on Town Hall Meetings….Jim Webb is useless as you’ll see below.

JIM WEBB
We spoke to Linda in Sen. Webb’s office.  She said his scheduler is finalizing his plans for town hall meetings now.  She told us to sign up on his e-mail list and that the complete list of his meetings should be sent out soon.  We’ll let you know as soon as we receive it.

Unfortunately, it appears that Senator Webb left Sunday on a two-week, five-nation tour of Asia to “explore opportunities to advance U.S. interests in Burma and the region.” With Congress trying to spend more than half a billion dollars on luxury jets, we think this is really bad timing on Sen. Webb’s part. We wish that Sen. Webb would have finalized his meetings with constituents before he finalized meetings in Burma.

MARK WARNER
His schedule is still being finalized as well.  Once it is (and it should be soon according to his office) it will be posted on his website at:  http://warner.senate.gov/public/

TOM PERRIELLO
Our hat is off to Rep. Perriello for holding 21 public events in the district during the recess (in less of a town hall setting and more of an office hours format.)  He’s already done a few of them.  They are called “Tom In Your Town.”  The details are below:

6:00 – 8:00 PM
Ruckersville Elementary School (Cafeteria)
105 Progress Place

Charlottesville
08/11/09

The Media Can’t Argue With an Informed Citizen!

CNN reporter gets schooled. No liberal can stand up to a well informed and well reasoned argument. If you stay cool and stick to the facts, you can’t lose.

How Did We Get In This Mess?

Watch this 10 minute video that describes how the current crisis began. When a member of the state run media or an innocent liberal just blurts out “It’s Bush’s fault” have the facts together. Obama and his buddies hands are very dirty. Bush was wimpy, but he was on the right track.

How Did We Get In This Mess: Part 2

Infuriating video that highlight the run up to the mortgage crisis and the absolutely false spin that “Bush’s lack of regulation” caused the crisis. Listen to Clinton’s last line of the video. Every time I see this it makes we want to run out of the room screaming.

Tyranny is when…

Honest public citizens get fired for doing their job…apparently too well. This is why our founding fathers wanted a limited government.

This is the original story.

Here’s Obama’s Explanation

Here’s a Dem reacting to the firing

And What do you know the FBI is investigating the group that Obama was protecting. If this was Bush, this would be reported like the end of days for corruption. Good thing St. Obama has a friendly state run media behind him.

More questions…this one smells.

Hey Garafalo! Check this out.

All members of our Tea Party Group believe that all men are created equal and endowed by our maker with inaleable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The assertion that this movement is racist is so absurb as to be laughable.

This clip says it better than I do.
