Check each of these people out thoroughly. Don’t make a choice because they’re pretty, or handsome. Don’t make a choice because your friend says that’s the one, or even your spouse says that’s the one. We cannot suffer fools gladly anymore.
Michigans economy is at the bottom of the barrel. The auto industry now has the government as the biggest shareholder in GM and Chrysler stock. The jobless rate is one of the highest in the nation. We can’t go on this way.
Just before the primary I will give my choice, by that time you and I should be able to pick the right one.
November on the Rise
Spring has sprung and Conservative America is working diligently toward a good House cleaning come November.
This last year was the longest year we’ve suffered through in a very long time, but November is just around the corner and we hopefully will be put out of our misery.
It is of the utmost importance that each and every American of voting age, gets out and votes down this fundamental transformation that has divided our country so fiercely since the Civil War. The only difference is race has nothing to do with it this time, though the frightened Democrats are trying to make it about race. As often as they bring race into everything, I think it is the Dems who are the racists, just like Obama.
Start paying attention to your local races and the people who are running. Here in Michigan we have quite a primary to look forward to. So many running it could be hard to choose.
Hope everybody had a great Easter! Jesus is Risen!!!
STATE OF MICHIGAN #1 IN UNEMPLOYMENT
I live in the State of Michigan. Anyone who has lived here for the last thirty years, knew that the time was coming when the unions would destroy the car business. The time finally came and now we have the highest unemployment rate in what was once the greatest manufacturing nation in the world.
Gov. Granholm has done nothing during her tenure to help keep businesses in Michigan. They talk some into coming here, but they don’t stay because they are taxed to death and the union wages and benefits are over the top.
We have an election coming up for a new Governor and other state and federal campaigns. It is time for people to quit voting on how someone looks, or who your union masters tell you to vote for, and quit just picking the name that sounds good. Get out and find out what the candidates are about. Pay attention, because this state and this country can not take anymore social reform. We need jobs now!!!!!!!!
FOX NEWS AND GLENN BECK HELP END 40 YEAR STRANGLEHOLD BY DEMS
History was made today in the state of Massachusetts. Scott Brown won the race for Senate, a seat left empty by the death of Ted Kennedy. Kennedy held that seat for 40 years.
The Obama White House is crying in its beer tonight. The arrogant far left group were quite sure nobody could stop them, but the people did their job today and stopped them.
I am so proud of the American people who would not stand idly by and watch this country piece mealed to death. Now we have to keep up the energy and the fight and level the playing field come November.
Good luck Scott and congratulations!!!!
WILL THE DEMS BE CRYING IN THEIR BOSTON BEANS?
The jig is up for Martha Coakley, after months of vitriolic campaigning. The Dems have use every negative ad, rhetoric, and scare mongering they had at their disposal.
Tomorrow is the big day for Scott Brown, Republican candidate for Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat. If the Dems can keep it clean (which we know they can’t) then it is very likely the Conservative Independents will rule the day.
It is expected by most of the right that Acorn and their union thug buddies have already been out fixing the vote.
A few prayers tonight for Scott Brown would not be amiss.
Election Year
If there was ever a time in our history that the people must get out and vote, this is the year. We cannot allow our country to be fundamentally transformed into a government run dictatorship like Venezuela.
At no time is it good for this country to be run with an imbalance of power. I have always voted both sides in an election to help keep it balanced. Unfortunately when one party has all the power, it tends to skew the dynamics of our country and will definitely throw us into a struggle that could destroy this great nation.
The Democratic Party has abused the confidence of the people who voted for them this year. The people were looking for a calming of our country, the job boom of the Clinton era, and the ending to the wars. Strangely enough, they have gotten none of those things. In fact we have gotten pretty much nothing, except, double digit unemployment, businesses running out of the country in droves, and more terrorism.
With health care being the only real focus by Congress, and being re-elected by Obama, nothing of any value has been done in this first year of the Obama administration.
We must even out the numbers in the House and Senate, so that both parties are accountable. That way neither side can blame the other, they just have to do their jobs. As it is the Republicans have not been allowed to do anything so right now the blame lies solely with the Democrats.
It is time for change alright, but one that is good for you and I, not just the people in Washington, who are trying to get rich off of us.
The year 2010 can make or break this country. If we don’t even out the power, it could be the end of this country as we know it.
Election Day Jitters
It always seems to be a never ending process, 8:00 a.m. in four time zones to 8:00 p.m. in four time zones. Election day, not only our right, but our duty.
For many years I found other entertainment until late night projections on local news stations. Since watching the last election closely on Fox News, I have watched Fox closely today too. The counts could be quite close in two of the elections and they are important for all who are tired of the progressive nonsense we have had to put up with for the last nine months.
The state of NJ has already found voter fraud in their absentee ballots. The signatures do not match. Surprise!!!!! Like we didn’t see that coming. I smell an Acorn!!!
The Democrats are pooh poohing the importance of the possibility they could lose some yes men.
The Republicans are wondering if Doug Hoffman is a portent of whats to come for the rest of them.
Exciting, but serious times.
I voted!!! Did you????
2010 ELECTIONS
I have found very few people who are happy with their political party or those who have been filling the spots since before the last election.
Congress still seems to believe they are the power and you and I are working for them. They may be right since we keep working (those who still have jobs) to pay for all the wish lists these people can come up with.
We have an election coming up in 2010, and it is time for the voting citizens of this country to sit down and take a look at who is running. We cannot have another election like this last one. Know your candidate ahead of time. Get your butt up off the couch and get involved.
Apathy among voters has put us in an untenable position, that we have to live with for the next three years. However, if you get out and vote this time and pick people you have spent time studying and learning their politics, we should at least have a safety net, which we do not have right now, with the Democrats holding both the House and the Senate. Thank God for Blue Dog Democrats, who have held the line so far.
You must pay attention to both the state elections and federal. We must have people running our states who understand, business and the need for it, who understand state rights, and the need for it.
Voting is a privilege that so many people in the world would given their lives to have, but here we just like to complain, instead of making the change. Stand up and fight for whats left of our great country, because the far left is trying very hard to tear it down and make it something that none of us want to live in.
