Focus and Refocus

Maybe it's me. Maybe I just don't understand the world. But why is it that people with good ideals always seem to get corrupted by money and power?

I Changed My Mind

I'm not resigning from the Republican Party. I know a few posts ago I said I was going to, but I have done some rethinking. After all it's the Republican Party that has left the republicans, not the true republicans who have left the party.

The Next Big Thing

Last week I asked the question where do we go from here. I asked if the Tea Party movement is still relevant, do we need to change directions and what went wrong.

SCOTUS: Thank-you For Re-Energizing The Tea Party

While I have been trying to keep this particular blog on “local” tea party related topics, I thought I would write about yesterday’s decision by the Supreme Court on Obamacare. Guess what? I personally think this is a great decision, especially for the tea party.

From One Of Our Knox Trail Friends

I received this email from the Knox Trail Tea party regarding their meeting this past Tuesday. I am reprinting it without permission but John, it's for the cause.

Tea party principles are bottom up

In my last post I talked about the leadership meeting we had with many of the regional tea parties attending. One of the things which was touched upon briefly, was getting local. I have talked about this in the past, although I am not sure I have on this blog, so I will reiterate mt views.

Finding That One Lost Sheep

There are some days when I am listening to talk radio or reading articles or other blogs, where I get pretty disheartened. We try to get out our message, but every day there is another assault of some kind on us and our tea party movement. We see examples of the progressive left screwing things up every day and it can be overwhelming.

All This Time I had It Wrong

I admit I don’t watch a whole lot of MSNBC, not for any other reason that being a poor Conservative who receives no assistance from anyone, I can’t afford the extra fee for the extra package to which MSNBC belongs. However, last night I had the pleasure of spending some time at my son’s house and was blessed with the ability to peruse it for a short time.

One Byte At A Time

Since I have become somewhat politically active, especially with the tea party movement, I have noticed one thing; there is no shortage of issues needing attention. I am constantly bombarded with e-mails from people and organizations needing help with this and that, all of which are going to ruin the country if they aren’t fixed immediately. And of course most of them can only be fixed with a donation. So how does one decide which of the “Your Immediate Attention is Required” causes get the attention?
