Dear GOP,

Now that we are in the year 2010, those of us that are unhappy with the direction Congress is moving our Country are looking for change. Not the stupid, Socialist “Change That We Can Believe In” crap that President Obama is trying to ram down our throats. We are looking more for the kind of change that will make America great, once again. Over the past few weeks I have discussed with many of my friends Common Sense ideas and suggestions that we believe will help the GOP get back on track as the party of choice for Conservatives. I have been a voter that has voted Republican over 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time I voted for CONSERVATIVE Democrats. I voted for Bob Barr in the last election because John McCain is, in my opinion, a RINO. If the GOP keeps supporting less than CONSERVATIVE candidates then you will continue to be in the minority in Congress. This is a mainly CONSERVATIVE country that is tired of this over-bloated, over-taxing, over-spending and unaccountable Federal Government. Did you not see the close to 1 million pissed off Americans in DC on Sept 12th that want their country to go back to it’s conservative roots? Why are we even discussing the further expansion of the Federal Government (Obama Health care) when our Federal budget is so out of balance? What has happened to common sense? Please make the GOP more CONSERVATIVE!!!!

I am hoping in the 2010 election that the GOP gets together and has a strategy similar to the 1994 election with the Contract with America. There are some Common Sense issues that I believe will resonate with the majority of Americans. First let me say that right now, in my opinion, Congress is thought of as a bunch of self-serving, self-aggrandizing, contemptible, loathsome bunch of dolts. I could open the phone book and randomly select 535 persons that would do a better job. Why do I think this? If I have to explain myself then that makes my statement true. Just a few points illustrate my argument. Un-balanced budgets, Social Security, the Congressional Retirement program, you don’t read bills you vote for, and bills that are not enumerated in the Constitution just to name a few points.

With the previous statement being posted how about you run on several issues:

1.) Balance the Federal Budget

2.) Cut Taxes by passing the FairTax

3.) Get Congress off their current retirement Program

4.) Only Pass Bills that are Enumerated by the Constitution

5.) Vote on only One Bill at a Time and Read the Bills You Vote On!

6.) Term Limits

7.) No Amnesty for ILLEGAL Immigrants!

8.) Eliminate Earmarks/Pork/Special Spending/Whatever you call it

I could name a few more because there are so many things Congress does that it should NOT be doing. So, please try and use some of these suggestions because they really resonate with many people that I know that want our Country to be strong and not a fiscal liability upon our children and grand children.

“The Axis of Idiots”

From the Podium:

J. D. Pendry, Retired Sergeant Major, USMC

This retired USMC Sgt. Major has his Stuff together.

Jimmy Carter, you are the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home, and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. You’re the “runner-in-chief.”

Bill Clinton, you played ring around the Lewinsky while the terrorists were at war with us. You got us into a fight with them in Somalia and then you ran from it. Your weak-willed responses to the USS Cole and the First Trade Center Bombing and Our Embassy Bombings emboldened the killers. Each time you failed to respond adequately, they grew bolder, until 9/11/2001.

John Kerry, dishonesty is your most prominent attribute. You lied about American Soldiers in Vietnam . Your military service, like your life, is more

fiction than fact. You’ve accused our military of terrorizing women and children in Iraq . You called Iraq the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time, and the same words you used to describe Vietnam . You’re a fake! You want to run from Iraq and abandon the Iraqis to murderers just as you did to the Vietnamese. Iraq , like Vietnam , is another war that you were for, before you were against it.

John Murtha, you said our military was broken. You said we can’t win militarily in Iraq . You accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof and said we should redeploy to Okinawa . Okinawa, John? And the Democrats call you their military expert! Are you sure you didn’t suffer a traumatic brain injury while you were off building your war hero resume? You’re a sad, pitiable, corrupt, and washed up old fool. You’re not a Marine, sir. You wouldn’t amount to a good pimple on a real Marine’s ass. You’re a phony and a disgrace. Run away, John.

Dick Durbin, you accused our Soldiers at Guantanamo of being Nazis, tenders of Soviet style gulags and as bad as the regime of Pol Pot, who murdered two million of his own people after your party abandoned Southeast Asia to the Communists. Now you want to abandon the Iraqis to the same fate. History was not a good teacher for you, was it? Lord help us! See Dick run.

Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Carl Levine, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Russ Feingold, Pat Leahy, Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer, the Hollywood Leftist morons, et al, ad nauseam: Every time you stand in front of television cameras and broadcast to the Islamic Nazis that we went to war because our President lied, that the war is wrong and our Soldiers are torturers, that we should leave Iraq, you give the Islamic butchers – the same ones that tortured and mutilated American Soldiers – cause to think that we’ll run away again, and all they have to do is hang on a little longer. It is inevitable that we, the infidels, will have to defeat the Islamic jihadists. Better to do it now on their turf, than later on ours after they have gained both strength and momentum.

American news media, the New York Times particularly: Each time you publish stories about national defense secrets and our intelligence gathering methods, you become one united with the sub-human pieces of camel dung that torture and mutilate the bodies of American Soldiers. You can’t strike up the courage to publish cartoons, but you can help Al Qaeda destroy my country. Actually, you are more dangerous to us than Al Qaeda is. Think about that each time you face Mecca to admire your Pulitzer..

You are America ’s ‘AXIS OF IDIOTS.’ Your Collective Stupidity will destroy us. Self-serving politics and terrorist-abetting news scoops are more important to you than our national security or the lives of innocent civilians and Soldiers. It bothers you that defending ourselves gets in the way of your elitist sport of politics and your ignorant editorializing. There is as much blood on your hands as is on the hands of murdering terrorists. Don’t ever doubt that. Your frolics will only serve to extend this war as they extended Vietnam . If you want our Soldiers home as you claim, knock off the crap and try supporting your country ahead of supporting your silly political aims and aiding our enemies.

Yes, I’m questioning your patriotism. Your loyalty ends with self. I’m also questioning why you’re stealing air that decent Americans could be breathing. You don’t deserve the protection of our men and women in uniform. You need to run away from this war, this country. Leave the war to the people who have the will to see it through and the country to people who are willing to defend it.

Our country has two enemies: Those who want to destroy us from the outside and those who attempt it from within.

Semper Fi,

J. D. Pendry – Sergeant Major, USMC, Retired

This is a savvy man. He has nailed it down pretty good. Too bad it won’t do any good. There won’t be 1 in 10 that receive it who will forward it.

I decided to post it and forward it!!

Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert. Congress said, “Someone may steal from it at night.”

So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job.

Then Congress said, “How does the watchman do his job without instruction?” So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.

Then Congress said, “How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?” So they created a Quality Control department and hired two people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.

Then Congress said, “How are these people going to get paid?” So They created the following positions, a time keeper, and a payroll officer, then hired two people.

Then Congress said, “Who will be accountable for all of these people?”

So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.

Then Congress said, “We have had this command in operation for one Year and we are $18,000 over budget, we must cutback overall cost.”

So they laid off the night watchman.

NOW slowly..

Let it sink in.

Quietly, we go like sheep to slaughter.

Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY ….. During the Carter Administration?

Anybody?

Anything?

No?

Didn’t think so!

Bottom line. We’ve spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency ….

the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember!

Ready??

It was very simple … and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate.

The Department of Energy was instituted on 8-04-1977. TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

Hey, pretty efficient, huh???

AND NOW, IT’S 2009 — 32 YEARS LATER — AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS “NECESSARY” DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR. THEY HAVE 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB THEY HAVE DONE! THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY, “WHAT WAS I THINKING?”

Ah, yes — good ole bureaucracy.

AND, NOW, WE ARE GOING TO TURN THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY OVER TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT?

Old  Butch

John was in the fertilized egg business.
He had several hundred young layers (hens), called ‘pullets,’
and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs.

He kept records, and any rooster not performing
went into the soup pot and was replaced.

This took a lot of time,  so he bought some tiny bells
and attached them to his roosters.

Each bell had a different tone,  so he could tell from a distance,
which rooster was performing.

Now, he could sit on the porch And fill out an efficiency report
by just listening to the bells.

John’s favorite rooster, old  Butch ,  was a very fine specimen,
but this morning he noticed old  Butch ’s bell hadn’t rung at all!

When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing
pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, could run for
cover.

To John’s amazement, old  Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn’t
ring.

He’d sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.

John was so proud of old  Butch ,  he entered him in the Renfrew County Fair
and he became an overnight sensation among the judges.

The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the No Bell Piece Prize
but they also awarded him the Pullet surprise as well.

Clearly old  Butch was a politician in the making.

Who else but a politician could figure out
how to win two of the most highly coveted awards
on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace
and screwing them when they weren’t paying attention.

Vote carefully next year, the bells are not always audible.

“If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theater of operations during the past 22 months, and a total of 2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000 soldiers.

The firearm death rate in Washington DC is 80.6 per 100,000 CIVILIANS for the same period. That means you are about 25 % more likely to be shot and killed in the U.S. capital, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the U.S., than you are in Iraq.”

Conclusion:      The U.S. should pull out of Washington DC .

→ Next Chicago!!

restoring the American Republic one piece at a time… During the summer We tea partied, protested, burned up the telephone lines, and attended town halls trying to get the attention of our elected representatives in DC. Throughout it all The media degraded us, berated us, lied about us or just flat out ignored us. That’s about to change… On Saturday, October 17 from 4:00PM to 7:00PM we will be letting those in the media know how we feel about what they are doing… their complicity, their bias, and their abysmal reporting. A Nationwide Effort In over 115 cities across this great land protests will be held outside media outlets. All major networks will be included. Obviously, the “mainstream” media are hard of hearing and seeing. About 2 million mad-as-hell taxpayers assembling in Washington, D.C. for the largest (and most well-behaved and respectful) protest ever did not make it onto their radar screens (or our TV screens). Seems they need our help We cannot easily repeat what happened in D.C. on 9/12, but here’s your chance to be part of Operation: “Can You Hear Us Now?” Join us Saturday Oct. 17, 2009 at the local NBC affiliate: KSHB – NBC 41 4720 Oak Street Kansas City, MO 4-7PM See the protest advertisement video for Kansas City! This location has been chosen due to NBC’s affiliation with CNBC, MSNBC and GE. This event has been organized by your local KC Metro 9/12 Project and PAL. Action Plan A pre-protest plan of action in the days leading up to Saturday can be found here. It involves calling, faxing & emailing media outlets. Logos and graphics can also be found on this site if you want to get creative and dress up your email and fax communications or your signs for Saturday. See you Saturday!

October 11, 2009 Save the Date! Preserving American Liberty is currently in the planning stages of several exciting events! Be sure and save the dates of November 10th and 11th! Details coming soon! Please feel free to pass this important information on to your friends and families. They can also join our mailing list by using the Manage Subscription link below or sending an email to townhallkc@gmail.com Thanks again to all who joined us for the Town Hall at the Hyatt recently! Action Plan As you know, the Senate is set to vote Tuesday on Obamacare. Dick Morris writes that Senator Lincoln of AR and Senator Snowe of ME are important people to call. FreedomWorks, co-sponsors of the DC march, have put together a terrific list of movers and shakers and have included a helpful list of talking points. It’s long, but  if we each make some of the calls we CAN stop this.

We have been so busy listening to Pelosi call the CIA liars; Americans Nazi and un-American; trying to shove the crap Health Care Sandwich down our throats, we may have forgotten how much of our money she spends on herself!!

Newt Gingrich, a Republican, served in the House from Georgia from 1978 and as House Minority Whip in 1989.  He was Speaker of the House from 1995 to 1999. During that time he never made use of military aircraft.

Nancy Pelosi, Democrat from California, current Speaker of the House.  The Pentagon provides the House speaker with an Air Force plane large enough to accommodate her staff, family, supporters, and members of the California delegation when she travels around the country.  But, Pelosi wanted routine access to a larger plane.  It includes 42 business class seats, a fully-enclosed state room, an entertainment center, a private bed, state-of-the-art communications system, and a crew of 16.  Pelosi wanted “carte blanche for an aircraft any time,” including weekend trips home to San Francisco. Pretty nice but very expensive perk!  Her Air Force C-32 costs approximatel y $15,000 an hour or approx imately $300,000 per trip home.

And she has the guts to confront the Big Three CEOs for flying their corporate jets to Washington!  YOU WOULD THINK SHE, ALONG WITH A HUSBAND WORTH AN ESTIMATED BILLION DOLLARS, WOULD LEASE OR BUY AND FLY THEIR OWN PLANE, OR FLY FIRST CLASS ON COMMERCIAL AIRLINES LIKE OTHER RICH PEOPLE. NANCY PELOSI FACTS:

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s home district includes San Francisco.  Star-Kist Tuna’s headquarters are in San Francisco, Pelosi’s home district.  Star-Kist is owned by Del Monte Foods and is a major contributor to Pelosi.  Star-Kist is the major employer in American Samoa employing 75% of the Samoan workforce.

Paul Pelosi, Nancy ’s husband, owns $17 million dollars of Star-Kist stock.  In January, 2007 when the minimum wage was increased from $5.15 to $7.25, Pelosi had American Samoa exempted from the increase so Del Monte would not have to pay the higher wage.  This would make Del Monte products less expensive than their competition’s.

When the huge bailout bill was passed, Pelosi added an earmark to the final bill adding $33 million dollars for an ‘economic development credit in American Samoa.’

Pelosi has called the Bush Administration “CORRUPT” !!

How do you spell “HYPOCRISY” ??
