The Tea Party Movement Should Stand Alone

It persists that politicians are clueless about the Tea Party Movement. The TPM is a grassroots effort to bring attention back to the American people that we have a Constitution, that our Federal Government has overstepped its bounds on Constitutional powers granted it by that Constitution and that spending is out of control. Nowhere in that movement is it defined as Democrat or Republican, black or white, male or female, Catholic or Protestant.

The TPM has become a powerful force. Why? Because it is of the people and by the people. Because of the TPM business as usual in the political sphere got upended. We saw that in Virginia and New Jersey. When Scott Brown got elected to the Senate seat in Massachusetts, that is when it become clear to me that Republicans didn’t know what the Tea Party Movement was about either. Read more

Who Plays With Your Freedom

I do believe that far too many Americans are suffering from a case of not knowing what you’ve got until it’s gone. Freedom is one of those rights granted us by God not by man but some are insistent to take that freedom away from you and I in order to bolster their own struggle for power. Self seeking power hucksters are so bedazzled by their own self importance they fail to see the ultimate destruction they will bring upon a free society including themselves.

Thomas Sowell says that politics and politicians are “Playing Freedom Cheap“. Read more

Black Conservative Response to State of the Union Address

Washington, DC: In the aftermath of President Barack Obama’s first State of the Union Address, members of the Project 21 black leadership network are commenting on his presentation tonight and his performance during his first year in office:

Bishop Council Nedd II: “After virtually walking away from the gay community after the election, President Obama is all of a sudden taking up their cause again? Last week’s election shows he has problems with Americans of all political stripes, but he appears to be focusing most intently on quelling the civil war rising against him in the left-wing of his party. One would think that — as his approach to national security is being questioning in the wake of the underwear bomber and his dithering on Afghanistan — that he would think of some other military-related issue to champion than one that could fracture his 2008 base even further.

Black Conservatives Critique Obama Performance on Eve of State of Union Address

Washington, DC: In anticipation of President Barack Obama’s first State of the Union Address, members of the Project 21 black leadership network are offering their thoughts on his first year in office and the strength of the nation.

Bob Parks: “During the last few months, President Obama has arrogantly broken one campaign pledge after another. Even after the “Massachusetts Miracle,” when his fellow liberals began to act as if they were moving to the center if only for purposes of political preservation, Obama continued his narcissistic approach to governing.

Obama Regrets Not Telling You What Your Values Should Be

Words speak volumes! Let’s not kid ourselves. We know that what comes out of a person’s mouth is generally a reflection of who they are, what they are all about. After the Scott Brown win in Massachusetts, I said that Washington and the White House would all turn into a bunch of chameleons trying to morph into looking like something they really are not out of fear of losing their jobs. Unless you are the master of disguise, ala Bill Clinton, when you open your mouth to speak, the truth is once again revealed.

Yesterday, Barack Obama interviewed with George Stephanopoulus of ABC News. (Transcript here.) There’s tons of information you can digest about Obama in that interview. I really don’t know why but one tiny bit of his “but what I will tell you” interview, jumped out at me as very revealing of the kind of person our president is. Read more

So Why Did Scott Brown Win In Massachusetts?

I watched this last night on the Sean Hannity Show. Michelle Malkin recommends that every democrat leader should watch this video and I agree. However, both Dems and Republicans need to watch this video because it pretty much tells how Brown won. Hello! It isn’t because Americans are becoming more conservative. They’re just not ready for full fledged, one party politics of shoving policy down our throats.

Mississippi Squirrel Revival – Ray Stevens

As I watched with great entertainment last night as the election returns came in from the Massachusetts senatorial race between Martha Coakley and Scott Brown, many thoughts raced through my head. I tried all night and woke up a few times during the night, on into this morning trying to think of what this election reminded me of. Then it dawned on me.

Ray Stevens! That’s right. Do you remember the “Mississippi Squirrel Revival”? When Ray was a boy, he snuck a squirrel he had caught into church one Sunday. The squirrel escaped Ray’s box and created quite the uproar in the old church.

I believe if you watch the video, you’ll agree that Scott Brown might just be the squirrel that escaped the box and raised cane in Massachusetts.

Black Conservatives Comment on Brown Victory in Massachusetts

Washington, D.C.: Black conservatives affiliated with the Project 21 leadership network are speaking out about the stunning victory of Republican state senator Scott Brown over Democrat state attorney general Martha Coakley in Massachusetts.

Kevin L. Martin: “Scott Brown’s victory in the bluest of traditionally blue states can only be viewed as a complete loss of confidence in the policies of the Obama White House and its allies in Congress. People have tasted the fruits of a government dominated by liberal ideologues and they’ve not found it to their liking. What remains to be seen is if this repudiation has been heard and understood. Will Obama, Pelosi and Reid see the writing on the wall, or will they continue their heavy-handed attempts to ram through their agenda against the will of the people?” Read more

Rex Rammell’s Plan For Idaho

Dr. Rex Rammell wants to be Governor of Idaho and he has a plan. I’ll guarantee you his plan is nothing you’ve ever heard before but don’t discount it either. It’s catching on in the Gem State.

America Rising An Open Letter to Democrat Politicians

For me, this would be better titled, “America Rising: An Open Letter to ALL Politicians”. We must be reminded as we stumble along heading toward November 2, 2010, that it’s not just Democrats that threaten out liberty, that seek more government and government control. It is a scourge that has corrupted Washington and yet they think they are right. No more. We must take our country back. Question the motives of every politician.

Congressional Candidate Lieutenant Colonel Allen West

Lt. Col. Allen West is a candidate for U.S. Congress in 2010 for District 22 in Florida (Jupiter, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Ft. Lauderdale). This is a speech he gave recently and I wouldn’t suggest you listen to it if you don’t support liberty, the U.S. Constitution nor have any interest in fighting to win back this country from the tyranny of greed, corruption and government control.

Reid Race Comments Condemned

Black Activists Condemn Senate Leader Harry Reid Playing the Race Card in Health Care Debate

Washington D.C.: Recent race-related comments made by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) are highly offensive and historically inaccurate, say members of the Project 21 black leadership group.

“Harry Reid has resorted to the most shopworn trick in the liberal playbook. He deployed the race card in the ugliest way while debating health care reform,” said Deroy Murdock, a Project 21 member and a media fellow with the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University. “It is astonishing and outrageous to equate those who seek the defeat of Reid’s 2,074-page, $2.5 trillion legislative monstrosity with those who were happy to keep blacks in chains, unpaid for their back-breaking labor and traded back and forth like cattle. The fact that Reid would use such deplorable, insulting and insensitive rhetoric indicates that he is out of credible arguments to defend his own proposal.” Read more
