The Unions Have to Go!

Unions were formed for good reason, exploitation of employees. They were a critical part of balancing power of the companies that hired the workers and the workers themselves. As more and more industries were formed, competition for those same workers increased and the need for unions decreased as did the unions. Today, about 7% of all private sector jobs are unionized.
Government by definition doesn't need unions but today 43% of government employees are union, plus teachers. This is an oxymoron. The unions bosses were no longer needed in the private sector and moved to the public sector. Since then, they have become the largest donators to political races, both in money and time. They control a lot of the vote and it is almost all the democrat party as are the donations. Nov. 2, 2010 saw this up close, Ca, Co, Nv, Wa and WV senate races were all taken by the votes and fraud of the unions. Many house races and at least the governor of Mn was taken by the unions.
Congress needs to pass a law that makes government unions illegal. Why does the government need a union? Why do government employees have higher pay and bigger unfunded pension plans? The Unions have to Go!

Addia Wuchner pre files to regulate body fat

Another chip away at our liberty, this time from a so called republican. Addia if you want to get rid of weight problems, drug test food stamp and welfare recipients. The ever growing government can't do anything right. This is another example of pathetic encroachment of freedom by the nanny state. We need to limit the government by limiting people like this in office. And to say that our body fat percentage won't be kept by the nanny state, well why do you want to measure it Addia if you aren't going to keep it? Watch out Boone county, this RINO is dangerous.

Boehner May Have Caused 3rd Party to Rise.

With the appointment of Hal Rogers and Fred Upton to important committee chairs, Speaker Boehner has made a terrible decision. Rogers is the "king of pork". While from my party and state, I don't support him at all, in fact, want him primaried. Upton is the same person that banned the incandescent light bulb. These RINOs are both pathetic and now in charge of appropriations and energy. Humm? This TEA party activist may leave the GOP over these picks. The Libertarians are closer to my beliefs than these 2. This is a bad mistake Speaker Boehner and it will bite the GOP where it hurts, with voters like me.

Auditor of Kentucky - Elect John Kemper - 2011

Kentucky needs a businessman to run this office. We also need someone with no history inside political machines, particularly this office! John fits this perfectly and is committed to a debt free Kentucky. He also has a great idea, put all government spending on-line so that we have thousands of "Citizen" auditors. John is for We The People not the political class. Particularly this year, his democrat opponent is the governor's chief of staff. These interwoven machines have to go and we have a great candidate... John Kemper

The Ils May Have It

The Ils may have it. North Korea that is. Daddy is dying and son needs to prove his metal. This is a very dangerous situation and has started. Tuesday's attack on the South's island was the biggest since 1953. Today the North moved surface to air missles to several shores as The USS George Washington arrived with its entourage. America has 28,000 troops on the ground and a president that doesn't know how to lead. Timing couldn't be better.
The Ils may have it. China is providing them with weapons, technology, back door approval and cash. The Ils owns the media, production of all products, electricity and food... monarchy. The GNP is 1/40 of the South's, the people are totally dependant on the government. If you haven't seen the satellite night photo, find it, there are no lights in the North... monarchy.
The South is capatilist and successful. Obama doesn't like either unless it's him. He won't stand up against the monarchy as it is preferred to the free people... Alinsky, Marx and Hitler, Obama is in denial of history, so it repeats itself again at the 35th parallel.
Please educate your kids and your neighbors. Civics and exceptionalism are no longer taught in socialist education. It is up to We The People.

John's link

This picture of John is better than both on his site, thank you Gene! Can we do better? This link needs to be used throughout the campaign and I certainly want all input.

No Compromise With Obama

No Obama, no compromise. You are a socialist and we have no common ground. We love our freedom and self reliance and you loathe both. There cannot be compromise with you and your leadership. Even a step in your direction is off the cliff of America.
No Obama. I hope the new congress has the guts to allow you to shut down the government and keep it that way. We will all be better off and that congress will be reelected and expanded. The socialists have been steering your car to the left for a century. You didn't change the oil or even wash the car with all your stimulus. It is rusty and has no brakes, steering or solar panels. Yes, you can blame it on Bush, he was another cog in the big government wheel. But you accelerated it and the people woke up. This is not the kind of change that America wants and you are toast in 2012 if you're man enough to run.
You are a community organizer only and we see the wonderful work you did in Chicago. Socialism always fails. Your policies stink and now that your executive can be investigated, your house of cards will come tumbling down. Your empty suit will be shown, your unions obliterated and your party will be forever given the boot. Thank you for waking up the sleeping giant that was busy producing products and services and creating jobs until you and many before you relegated us into politics. The TEA parties are not racist, you are. They are not extreme, you are and it is soon over.
The new congress will stop some of your dirt in the next 2 years, but the coarse will be reversed in 2012. There are 21 democrat senators up for election, 2 independent and 10 republican plus the socialist and chief that is spending over one billion of our children's dollars on a vacation right after the election. That's 8 vacations already this year. No Mr. Obama there is no compromise with you. Hear me congress and stay strong we will vote with our boots again in 2012 and will be much better prepared for your fraud.

We can't beat ACORN

It's a shame, but the unions and their paid cheats will win a lot of races. The house will be strong GOP and the senate improve, but no majority with all the cheating.

The WAVE starts in Kentucky

The WAVE starts in Ky 6th with Ben Chandler's firing. We are the first state to close the polls and have a good secretary of state. The In. senate race is called first for Coats, but Andy Barr is second, first in the house. He is Nate Silver's #61 and wins by 5 or 6 early. The WAVE starts. Dick Morris will go crazy as will I. Todd Lally is rated at 102. If he wins, and should, the bellwethers are set to come close to 1894.

Andy Barr moves to "Tossup" RCP

Realclearpolitics.com is a very good source for information on house races. They use Charlie Cook, Nate Silver, Stu Rothenberg, many polls and models. They just moved Ky congress 6th from leans democrat to tossup!!! Andy Barr's big win in the debate, John Boehner coming and several polls influenced this move. They are right, the momentum is clearly moving voters.
The people on the ground and the excellent candidate are both factors. We have only 9 days left to this election, so all of us that have worked to make this possible, please step it up another notch. This one is close, but can be won. Thank each of you again. May the next 9 days be productive and make Carol move with Andy to Washington!

Down to the Wire for Nov 2.

With 10 days until election day, campaigning is in full stride. Enthusiasm for Andy Barr's race is extremely high. Over 100 people were in the victory office today when leader (soon Speaker) Boehner rallied the crowd. The crowd cheered on many points and the smile on Andy's face lit up the room. We have a lot of work to do over the next 10 days as this is close. It is winnable and a lot of hard working people have formed a team that will soon cause the Barr's to move east.

Obama Is Not Doing The People's Business

Our commander and chief is hired by We The People to do the people's business. He is doing nothing about the economy, nothing about the nuclear weapons development of enemies sworn to annihilate us. Nothing about the southern border or the radical socialists that are taking over our freedom and liberty.

He is campaigning on Air Force One with its compliment of other planes, limos and staffs to expand his goals. He is doing this because socialism is the change he is bringing to America and was from the start.

The cost to Seattle alone is $150,000 for his campaign stop, what is the cost to the taxpayers on the federal level? We didn't hire him to campaign, but that is all he knows. His community that he organized has the highest crime rate in America and the highest dropout rate... good organization.

He is totally incompetent and cares about nothing but himself and his power. I don't even want to type his name. He has had more parties, played more golf and done less work than any president in my lifetime.

Please get your friends, family and neighbors to vote we have to win this election. 2010 is the first time I have ever written anything like this, it is critical to freedom.

Andy Barr and Ben Chandler Debated Tonight

It wasn't close! Andy's passion and determination could not be missed by anyone that watched. He was up on facts and was quick with responses and on the point. He answered all questions well and at one point the camera got a shot of Ben that was classic. Andy had whipped him and Ben knew it. Andy's cost cutting was specific and understandable and the line about the trip to the Galapagos islands was terrific! Great job Andy. It was another step in the right direction... east bound for Andy and Carol!

We have a lot of work to do and for a terrific candidate. Please get your neighbors, family and friends and walk door to door or make phone calls. 255-5918 is the victory office on Southland Dr. Afsi has door to door lists and phone numbers and will put you to work!

Andy, please read next post, it would have helped tonight!

Ben Chandler Needs To Go Home Nov 2.

Since Nancy Pelosi became Ben Chandler's boss, the house has spent us into oblivion. The last congress before Pelosi had a deficit of just over 100 billion, 2006. Unemployment was at 4.6%. The deficit this year was over 8 times that. This year, Ben's congress has not fulfilled their constitutional duty to pass a budget, not one vote on any budget bill. No, campaigning is more important than the law to Pelosi and Chandler, Reid and Obama. They are all socialists who have the constitution in their way.
Another thing that was put off under Chandler is the ethics trials of Charles Rangel and Maxine Waters. Ben is one of 5 democrats on the ethics committee. Rangel and Waters are running again because ethics are not important in Pelosi's swamp. Ben Chandler is one of the 5 that voted to postpone these trials. I wonder if it had anything to do with the $10,000 that Rangel gave Ben, that's a lot of Pop Tarts. Ben won't give back the dirty money.
Please educate your friends and family, Ben Chandler has to go home to retire on our tax dollars and the health bill he is exempt from. That is better than letting him spend more and avoid prosecuting his donors. Crime has taken over our congress, we need to throw the criminals out. One is here in Central Ky, send Ben home and shut up Nancy Pelosi! We will get to Obama in 2012.

Democrats firewall not working

4 weeks before the election, every senate candidate that is up 6% or more has won every time since 1998. Let's look at Rasmussen's last poll numbers.

All republican seats that are up are over 6% winning, including incumbents and new members.

Losing democrat seats:
North Dakota - Hoeven +43%
Arkansas - Boozman +38%
Indiana - Coats +16%
Wisconsin - Johnson +12%
Pennsylvania - Toomey +8%
Colorado - Buck+8%

Inside 6% and in play
West Virginia - Raese +2%
Illinois - Kirk+2%
Washington - Rossi +1%
Nevada - Angle -1%
California - Fiorina -4%
Connecticut - McMahon -5%

Trending right after very late primaries:
Delaware - O'Donnell -9% but coming on strong. Media negative is voter positive this year.
New York - Dioguardi -11% Rasmussen hasn't been here since Sept 16th. Other recent polls have him within error!

This leaves 8 still in play with the GOP at 47, dems at 45.

Mixed Blessings in Delaware

Christine O'Donnell is a far better candidate as far as the constitution, but with electability, it is another matter. We now have a battle that the GOP isn't going to fund. Shame on Sean Hannity for being nice to Michael Steele, he's a RINO or worse. Conservatism wins, I hope it spreads in Delaware in a national wave.

Andy Barr - More Good News

Nate Silver at fivethirtyeight.com is one of the nation's best political prognosticators. He now has Andy Barr at better than even chance of winning, 53%. That is a long way from 21% after the primary. That says a lot for the organization on the ground in Ky 6th. We are still 7 weeks out and that number is much earlier than anyone would have guessed. No wonder Ben Chandler has gone negative. His internal polls must agree.
There is a lot of work still to do to take that number higher before Nov 2, but thank you to everyone that is making this effort. Your work is showing and is going to be a part of a wave that is doing this in many places. Thank you again!
Mike Stephens

Great News for Andy Barr

The national republican party has chosen Andy's election as one of only 11 that they are going to spend money on early. The add is hard hitting at Pelosi's lap dog, Ben Chandler. No new polls have been released from either side, but this move by the GOP is clear indication that Andy has gained a lot of support. My boots on the ground agree!

Another sign of the trend is the latest poll from Ky congress 3rd, Todd Lally. He is now within 2% of John Yarmuth.

We have 2 excellent candidates in these guys, both are worthy of support, work, money, phone calls, knocking on doors and anything you can do. Both are rated as leans democrat, but neither will turn out that way if We The People stand united. Please help these candidates, we can send a big message, sit Pelosi, sit, now hush!

How to Take Congress

John Boehner needs to shout from the hill. Obama has singled him out repeatedly. If he has the guts, he will answer Obama this way now:

On the first day of voting on new business, the new congress will pass a bill to completely repeal Obamacare. The bill is already written(hold it up) and it is online now with more than 5 days for the public to read, ah hem! It will be the first thing we vote on. I know Obama won't sign it into law, but the new majority will not fund any of that legislation.

Next, we are going to fund only 80% of the following federal budgets: EPA, DOE, NEA, name them, there are 100 plus???. Hold up another bill. Americans have to live by planning, so should government.

Next, we are going to privatize every arm of government that Obama and his congress have taken over from the people. We are going to balance the budget by cutting rather than spending, regulations later.

After that, we are going to pass legislation to audit the fed and all members of congress instead of the American people. Hold up that bill. It is time the government is accountable more than the people.


We The People will rally hard for a person with this guts. We are searching speaker Boehner, you need to deliver. If you won't, step down your speakership.

All Obama's ACORNs

All Obama's ACORNs and all Obama's unions can't put the economy together again. Only small business can do that and small business is Obama's enemy. That is who they are trying to kill. This is tyranny from the executive, Alinsky and Piven.

The congress goes along because the socialist implants have taken the majority. Capitalism is their enemy. The terrible shame is the third branch, the courts, have been stacked for decades.

Conservatives have built businesses instead of watching government. That has now changed, that is the TEA party movement. We The People have woken up and are going to take our congress back Nov 2.

Yes, fraud will exist and has to be overcome, but business owners, who are smarter than politicians, will stand up to defend the right for their vote to count equally. We are going to participate and turn out in masses.

Please help. Show up all day at your voting place, catch up with your county clerk and observe or challenge like I will. It will take all of us to overcome ACORN, SEIU and their likes. Please help!

Germans close mosque, Obama wants another.

It is true. August 9, The Taiba mosque in Hamburg Germany was closed and the cultural association with it banned permanently. The jihad recruiting center of Germany is where mohammad atta of 9/11 fame worshipped as well as others of similar beliefs.
And Obama wants a mosque right next to ground zero. I can't wait. Religious explosives in Manhattan. Obama, you are destroying America and it is intentional. Only the left agrees with you, those that fought and died for your freedom to be stupid are insulted and are going to bring their friends, family and neighbors to the voting polls in such numbers in November that all the king's ACORNs and all the king's unions can't steal elections in 2010.

Resume drilling in the gulf

On April 20, the Deepwater Horizon blew up. Obama was lost. A leader would have called in industry experts and would have taken control like the 1991 law after the Exxon Valdiez required. He dithered for 41 days, doing nothing except blaming, regulating and calling in academics with the same experience as his cabinet, none. Skimmers from around the world remained docked and the beaches were oiled.

Soon, he imposed a regulation that stopped drilling. A court said no, so another action was taken. The businesses that do these jobs were uncertain like all Americans and "rig row" now exists at a port in MS. Many other employers have left. 140,000 people were stopped from working by 2 more executive actions. Not included in jobs saved.

The well was capped and the oil is gone, but the drilling ban has not been lifted. If not for Obama's dithering, the oil would have never reached the shore. Jindal's berms were not approved by his majesty and the results made news. Never let a crisis go to waste!

Obama is great at food stamps, now at a record, and killing jobs. Everything the socialist touches has his stink all over it. Not sorry Michele, its not his body, it's his mind or lack thereof.

He wants unemployment... Cloward and Piven. He wants the capitalist system that made America great to go to a place with our constitution, I don't know the muslim word for, hell. Both are under constant attack.

WE THE PEOPLE are too great for this failed bum. We have November 2, 2010 to tell him NO MORE. They have most government employees, most unions, the illegals and those that live on the government tit. We conservatives barely outnumber them and have to stop and reverse this. This is our last chance .

Please educate your friends, family and neighbors. Obama, Pelosi and Reid are killing our kids future with their machines leading. The deficit is now almost 8 times more than Bush's worst under Pelosi and Reid's congress. Government is the problem, not the solution.

Socialism always fails because you run out of working people's money and kill their incentive to produce. Freedom brings excellence and united we stand. Please get involved.

Vote Fraud Goes to a New Level

George Soros, James Rucker, Becky Bond and others founded the Secretary of State Project as division of the Democracy Alliance. The idea was to target 13 states elections to control this job only. Secretaries of State control voting. They won 11 of the 13 in 2006 with maximum donations made by the likes of Senator Kerry's wife Theresa Heinz Kerry. Minnesota was one of the wins, Missouri was another. In the 8 month fight for US senate in MN, Franken won because of fraudulent votes allowed. See article several down.
In MO, secretary of State Carnahan has twice refused to purge felons and dead people off the rolls. She is running for US senate and needs the fraud. The Pendergrasses are alive and well again.
The democrats are losing and cheating is the only way they have left to win. This is not new, it goes back to Boss Tweed in Tammany Hall and mayor Daily of Chicago mob fame and many, many more across the country. We have to protect the votes in 2010, the fraud will be rampant and is far more rampant than in most countries in the world. The democrats are cheats!
Specifically targeted is: not purging rolls, same day registration and no ID required to vote. All are ways to commit fraud and they are being implemented into all 11 states that SOSP bought. Ohio is a big target as the senate race is close, Missouri, the same, California also. SOSP had donated a lot of money for these crimes again in 2010. Don't ignore this office, it is critical to our voices being heard. I will be at my polling place as a challenger all day Nov. 2.

Charles Rangel and Maxine Waters ethics

Oh what a Rangeled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
It is the way in congress from which Ben and Jack have received.

Yes, Ben Chandler $10,000 and Jack Conway $13,000 from Rangel. Ben sits on the ethics committee that is trying the corrupt pieces of garbage, is that a bribe? I guess that Ben is as bad a negotiator as he is a fighter for the constitution he swore to uphold. If you or I were to commit these crimes, we would be under the jail. But corrupt congressmen and women are above the law. What are laws to socialists... an inconvenience from which they are exempt.

The huge democrat majorities in the house and senate are what enabled the socialists that make up the democrat party to shred the constitution. That has to stop and be reversed. They pass laws that do nothing good for business. Their laws only hamper business by strengthening federal power and their unions. Then they raise regulations and taxes and exempt their allies.

It's time to drain Nancy Pelosi's swamp and Harry Reid's also. November 2 is critical. Please educate your friends and neighbors and bring in new blood. This country will not survive 2 more years of this.

Good News for Kentucky

Phil Moffett, Louisville businessman is running for governor. He is a TEA party conservative. His choice to run along side him is Mike Harmon. Harmon is a state house member from Danville. The reason that this is good news for Kentucky, they are both constitutional conservatives. This TEA party activist is thrilled!!!
Before I met Phil, I posted a link to one of his sites, because I believe in it. It is one of only 5 links on this page and I am not paid for them!

I will post a link as soon as one is available to their site.

Michele Bachman for President

She rocks on every level. She stands up when the boys won't, read the news! She is a true conservative and has the backbone to stand up to the left. Andy, when you beat Ben, join her TEA party caucus. United we stand!

Oil Spill Disappears

That's not possible! Since the well was capped, skimmers went from 20,000 barrels a day to 200 collected. "It's underwater hiding" is many from the left's answer. I have news for you, oil floats in fresh water, add the density of salt and oil is very buoyant. Plus, the supposed 200 million gallons in the gulf is less than a drop in a hottub. Sunscreen on one person in that hottub is way more oil. These ecosystems survived asteroids, volcanoes plus solar activity that raised and fell, followed by earth and other planet temperature.

Libtards, socialists, see their own importance more than reality. It's no wonder that they are confused as to where the oil went. Duhhh, nature produced it then nature consumed it. If you don't believe it, look at Exxon Valdiez, the same thing exactly. "Where did it go?" The 1980 spill off Mexico in the same gulf lasted 9 months under similar pressure and our coast was never hit and nobody hears about that.

Crisis management, Obama learned it from Alinsky and Ayers. Solving problems is over his head. That is true of any socialist. VOTE THEM OUT Nov 2.

Senate in Play

Keep an eye on the US senate November 2. 44 seats are not up or safe for the democrats and 38 for republicans. 10 are very close: CA, CO, FL, IL, MO, NV, OH, PA, WA and WI. Resources are going to be spread thin for the machines that commit fraud to steal close elections. Add to that the much higher energy in the republican party and the TEA party, the senate is in play.

Another factor, 33 senators are up in the 2 year cycle plus special elections, there are 5 this year. CO, DE, IL, NY and WV, all democrat held seats. Spread thinner! Add to that Harry Reid is the majority leader and is in real trouble. Tremendous amounts of money and union resources will be spent in NV to try to hold this seat, spread even thinner. Add CT, KY, NC, OR and WV close enough to be possible takeovers, and the house having about 120 seats in play, ACORN and SEIU can't get to many of them and they will be decided by the voters instead of the cheaters. Many have been abandoned already by the dumbocrats. We have a chance!

Lame Duck Congress

From Nov 2, 2010 until Jan 3, 2011 the democrats will have their last chance to force their socialist will on We The People. With nothing to lose, many retiring members will have their last opportunity to drive the stake in the heart of capitalism. They will try.

There is good news. Special elections are sworn in immediately after the secretary of state in each state certifies the election, this should be by Nov 10. Delaware was Biden's seat and RINO Mike Castle is way ahead. In Colorado, Salazars's former seat, conservative Ken Buck is going to win big and Obama's seat is leaning to Mark Kirk, another RINO. All three are GOP and one for sure will stand up, probably all three as new members. West Virginia is another special that may be of help also. Either way, the filibuster grew some legs, 44 GOP senators then. I am afraid we are going to need them as Pelosi, Reid and Obama will use the force and back room deals that passed health care.

Obama is destroying America on purpose.

Progressive socialists have all law making tools in their hands and they are writing laws like crazy. So fast that you wonder, how can they write faster than they can read? They can't, this was planned a long time ago. It's democrats more than republicans, but both... Reid, Pelosi, Christ, Specter, Snowe as well as Obama.

With regulations, laws, lawsuits and executive orders, Obama has unconstitutionally taken over:
Health care, voting, the internet, insurance companies, banks, media, car companies, drilling in the gulf, student loans, the list goes on.

Foreign relations have turned from pro Christian to pro muslim, from pro America to we're the bad guys. This can only be planned tyranny. A president that won't prove his eligibility, that bows to our enemies, won't stand with our allies, takes over everything, confiscates our assets and regulates our future needs is not upholding his constitutional oath. In fact to the contrary.

Obama founded the Chicago Carbon Exchange. Who do you think will profit from the dithering in the gulf?. The chosen few. Who has had more parties, vacations, and world travel than any previous president when the economy is in the tank. He is a progressive socialist control freak that knows Alinsky and Piven very well. Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright also. Our constitution is in his way because he wants to destroy the America I love.

We have to vote out the people in congress that don't stand for the freedom of We The People. Only, united we stand. November 2, 2010 is critical, please educate your family, friends and neighbors, we have to stop this tyranny and at Obama's rate, this is our last chance.

Vote fraud put Al Franken in the US senate

Fox reported today that in 2 counties in Minnesota more illegal votes were cast than Franken won by. Recounts took 6 months to find these votes. Those of us that paid attention watched that travesty occur and a loser put in the senate. We should prosecute the fraud and force Franken out, he did not win. But what are laws to socialists?
In Missouri, the secretary of state is running for US senate and refuses to purge felons and dead people off the voting roles which is required by law and is her job. The Pendergrasses are still alive as well as Boss Tweed in Tammany hall.
ACORN and derivatives will cast about 10% of the vote in the US this November, with stimulus money, maybe more. We have to win big, big majorities to cover the fraud. If fraud was stopped, democrats would be the minority party and this socialism would not be taking over. ACORN works in GOP primaries all the time, Dole, Bush and McCain are all examples.
I will be at my polling place from open to close as a challenger. It requires a class and permission from the county clerk and a candidate running in that precinct in Kentucky.
Please help, this is way more prevalent than you know. Email me with questions or to find out how to help. My email address is on the right bottom.

Oil spill intentional in gulf?

The evidence is mounting. The American people don't want cap and trade, but the people behind BP do. Goldman Sacks, Obama and BP are all pushing for carbon taxes. Obama founded the Chicago Carbon Exchange. Who do you think will profit from Carbon taxes at We The People's expense.
The answer is obvious. Those that sold their BP stock before the explosion are those that would profit. Goldman sold 44% of its BP stock, Vanguard all of its, thus Obama and Tony Hayward all sold 2 weeks before the explosion. They all knew that the explosion was about to occur. The MMS knew as early as Feb. 10 that this would happen if the well wasn't deep cemented. It wasn't, but Exxon did exactly that 4 years earlier in a similar well less than 200 miles from this one. Why did Halliburton make a huge investment in Boots and Coots, an oil spill clean up company, on almost the same day that these insiders sold their stock. This is a take over by crisis. Those responsible are all through these companies and more importantly, the White House and congress.
The criminal investigation needs to go there now Mr. Holder. Fat chance. Obama has blocked almost all effort to clean this up thus magnifying the crisis. You can't let it go to waste. This regulation and that environmental concern have furthered the definition of dithering in fact made it criminal.
November 2, 2010 has become imperative. Can they cook up another crisis and cancel the elections? Over my dead body. That's how serious this is.

Freedom is under attack

Freedom, what made America great, is under attack on several fronts. The enemy within has been on the attack since the progressives in the late 1890s and hasn't stopped. The enemy from without is radical islam, their war has been in effect since 850AD. November 2, 2010 is critical to our survival. The new congress has to stop this quickly or it is too late, both fronts.
We have to take the house by a large majority and we have to take the senate. With both and leadership, we can right the ship, without, we cannot.
The TEA party has been huge and is giving the GOP one more chance. Fortunately the conservatives have had major wins in many primaries and still are. November 2, freedom is on the line. Obama, Pelosi and Reid are socialist progressives. They are the far left and they are running our country.
Why has this happened?
The conservatives have been free to build businesses, create jobs, define excellence that the people want. We have been paying attention to that and the socialists have taken over the government. IT IS TIME TO TAKE IT BACK!!! We have to. Your freedom to work has been replaced by regulations and illegal aliens. Your freedom to choose has been replaced by bureaucracy. Your freedom to worship God is even under attack, incrementalism.
We withstood it for a lot, because we were smarter and could produce more and still make ends meet. Many can't now and it is getting worse. The summer of recovery is taking a pain pill both literally and figuratively.
We have to balance our budgets, so should they. Vote the bastards out with conservatives that will repeal the 17th and 16th amendments. Corruption resides there.
Mike Stephens, I blog in my own name.

Insider trading from Air Force One

On February 13, 2010 BP reported problems with the deepwater horizon well to the MMS. They struck oil and gas, too much of both. Continuing problems were reported through February and March. Emails were coming out of BP almost daily that high gas pressure was blowing out the cement at the top of the well. Repeated attempts were made to seal the area. MMS knew all about it.
In a similar situation in 2006 also in the Gulf, Exxon experienced high pressure gas and completely deep cemented the well instead of trying to harvest that which they couldn't control. It cost them a lot of money, but they did the right thing.
A very large investor in BP, Vanguard, through 2 subsidiaries sold all of its BP stock almost on the same day that Tony Hayward, CEO of BP, sold a lot of his stock. Two weeks before the explosion on April 20. Is this insider trading?
Unsealed wells with high pressure gas are almost all deep cemented and abandoned as they are very dangerous even above ground. The Russians had to nuke 3. This well should have been no exception. MMS knew it and could have forced it, they are the regulatory agency in charge.
One big holder of Vanguard funds is none other than Barack Obama who oversees MMS and had just surprised his opponents by announcing that Gulf drilling was going to be expanded. He had inside information and his portfolio was loaded with BP stock through Vanguard, who makes him uninterested. Amazing... Hayward and Vanguard sell their stock at almost the same time and 2 weeks later the well blows up killing 11 people and causing this mess.
If the crisis doesn't exist, sell your stock, then create the crisis that you can blame on big oil. Then use it to force Cap and Trade before you lose congress. Was this entire thing contrived?

Repeal the 16th and 17th amendments

From 1787 until 1913 the federal government wrote about 100 pages of laws a year. They were mostly maritime and excise. What happened in 1913?
Until 1913, the states were sovereign over the federal government. Our US senators were chosen by the state's houses to represent the state. The 10th amendment to the constitution furthered this wish of the founding fathers that states had control, not the federal government.
In 1913 that was removed by an unconstitutional amendment, the 17th. The states lost their suffrage to the people and corruption began. The Federal reserve was created, lobbyists were born, pork barrel spending and career politicians took over Washington and have had it ever since.
That same year, the 16th amendment was forced on We The People by the same progressives that allowed the now corrupt government to legislate activity through tax code and controlled banking. Both of these amendments were not ratified legally and should be removed. They are the cause of almost every problem this country has.
If we went back to the days of 100 pages of federal laws a year, productivity would go back up as lawyers produce nothing except dead trees.

TEA party wins again... everywhere!

The TEA party won in every race in every primary again June 22!!! Utah is my favorite, with a close race. Mike Lee will be a new member of the senate in January. The GOP moved to the right.
In South Carolina, Nikki Haley closed the deal in the runoff for SC governor and Tim Scott finished with even higher majority over Strom Thurman's son. 77 to 23. In another landslide, Trey Gowdy took out RINO Bob Inglis. It was a great day!

Constutional responsibility ignored again

Ben chandler and his handler, Nancy Pelosi, have failed to do one of the primary jobs of Congress, a budget. They want to spend more of our money, but are not willing to do it in the open. The law requires a budget be approved by May 15. The first vote has not been called yet this year because they don't want to be accountable to We The People.
The absolute corruption of this government is what has the TEA parties growing all over the country. The people are smarter than the idiots that are running this congress.
Andy Barr is now within single digits of Ben chandler 41/2 months before the elections. That is great news as momentum is clearly for Andy. Ben's 24 point lead is almost gone before campaigning has begun.
Education and grass roots is what will win this election. Please talk to your neighbors and friends. We have a lot of work to do but have a winner to work for! Keep it up folks, this seat was likely hold for the democrats and if it turns, speaker Pelosi can sit down and shut up. Go Andy!!!

War in Arizona

The Mexican drug lords have taken a good deal of southern Arizona. The national park service closed a big wildlife refuse to Americans today as Mexicans have it in their control. Obama, Seturo, whatever your real name is, listen. This is an invasion and you are asleep or drunk at the wheel. The presidency isn't a party. The entire world knows that you are weak and they are running all over us because of it.
The military is needed to take our border back in southern Arizona now. They have been screaming for months and you dither on this like everything else. Send the military now and leave them there with shoot to kill orders. One of the only constitutional duties of the federal government is the protection of our borders. You do everything but that. This invasion if not met is impeachable. WAKE UP OBAMA and leave your bong with William Ayers.
Mike Stephens and I have my birth certificate.

The truth about carbon trading

The primary agenda of the radical left now is Cap and Trade. The reason, if they control energy, they control you... socialism. But there is something much more hideous than that.
Obama founded the Chicago Carbon Exchange. If he forces the country into Cap and Trade, he will become one of the richest people in the world with a monopoly on Carbon trading. He funded the purchase with money from Fannie Mae. I don't know which is more corrupt.
This has to be our biggest objective right now as Obama knows he is going to lose the house in November and this is his last chance to pull off this coup. It is stalled in the senate, so he is trying to accomplish it by executive order. The EPA, another completely corrupt arm of government, is operated by the executive and has no authority to do this under the constitution, that pesky document!
We have to shout loud to stop this as it is hard to stop any government program once it starts. Ben Chandler and John Yarmouth both voted for Cap and Trade. Send them home, click the links on the right and help these candidates please.
Mike Stephens

The motivation of the TEA parties

Power has to be removed from the executive branch of our government as well as the congress and the courts. People make better decisions than any of these monopolies. In the wrong hands, this power is economy and freedom killing. Executive orders and Czars are not constitutional.
Many years of this has almost destroyed our country. It has to be stopped and reversed. A turbo-charger is needed once in reverse. The turbo charger is the TEA party. It has to work November 2, 2010 or it is too late. Fortunately, we have constitutional conservatives running with TEA party support all over the country. We have woken up!
Department of education - Since its beginning in another form in 1965, our SAT and ACT scores have consistently dropped as unions have taken over. 52 billion wasted dollars last year. Once the lead in the world, we are no longer in the top 20.
Department of energy - This was formed under Carter because of the oil embargo. The stated goal, energy independence. Quite the contrary has occurred with another 12 billion spent. The government can't do anything well.
Environmental Protection Agency - It has done to the contrary also. This one was started under Nixon and is now the biggest problem in the country. If we could drill for oil in Alaska and in shallow water we wouldn't have the mess in the gulf. Rush calls them wackos and he is right.
This is only three examples, but all these big government programs are welfare to politicians. Did you know that we have 78 Federal police agencies? Each has its own bureaucracy with no accountability and huge budgets.
This is unsustainable on all levels, look at Europe!

Tea Party takes over!

Sharron Angle won GOP senate in NV. by 14% even though out spent 5 to 1 by 2 candidates. Bill Johnson are you listening! Conservative values won that primary, not money. She is now up over Dingy Harry... Rasmussen, Thursday by 11%.

The TEA party wins again and Kentucky is a TEA party state. Rand is bad to some of us, including me, but beats the heck out of Conway, not Leland!

We have a great, hopefully congressman in Andy Barr for Ky6th. I only have to hold one nostril for Rand when I vote in November. Andy is clear breathing! Please call your friends in Louisville for Ky3rd, Todd Lally is awesome also.

United We Stand!!!

Gilligan Obama

If you remember Gilligan's Island, the theme music's chorus had a "three hour tour". Obama had three hours in LA. over the busy memorial day weekend when he couldn't go to Arlington, so busy that he slept in! "A three hour tour"

The oil spill started getting rough,
the president was tossed.
If not for Rahm Emanuel,
the president would be lost,
the president would be lost!

The oil spill then came aground
With tar balls all around.
The attorney general goes on call,
because the president is lost,
The president now is lost.

He'll keep the boot on the throat of BP
For the work, he bankrupts you and me
But not for total incompetence,
he doesn't have a thing,
he doesn't have a thing

It's Gilligan, the president
And Rahmbo Emanuel too,
meet Janet N. and Holder too!
Alinsky and William Ayers.
On the three hour tour!!!

Liberalism is a mental disorder, Thank you Michael Savage!

Mike Stephens

Democrat double standards

Isn't it odd that Rand Paul can be crucified for his belief that the over reaching government shouldn't control all business with regulations including discrimination. Yet the government who the civil rights act was the primary target of is exempt. Don't believe it, just ask a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, no whites allowed. We have Miss Black America also don't we. American flags can be burned but Mexican not. Laws only apply to the left when they want, socialism stinks.
Please educate your neighbors, friends and family. November 2, 2010 is our last chance and we will be fighting millions in "stimulus" money, ACORN, SEIU and the brainwashed, government educated dumb masses. Thank goodness we have excellent candidates this year!

Mike

Back to freedom

Rand Paul is being Borked and Palined at once, the socialist media never rest. Rush said it best... To see who they are afraid of, look who they are attacking, I paraphrase. Look what it did in the polls! Andy, beware and stand strong, you are the next target. We The People are behind you and in front of you. We will catch the dead fish that Rahm throws at you and make him eat it.
Mike

Politics with class

John Kemper, Perry Barnes and Mike Templeman had the dignity and class to offer support to Andy Barr Tuesday night in person. Andy grew to be friends with these fellow conservatives and earned their respect for his incredible organization and thus win. Andy went further and offered them board seats on his campaign. They are all novices to politics and did what an entrepreneur would do and what Washington needs. Outstanding Andy, John, Perry and Mike, thank you!

Leland went off on it twice before Andy came on and he started with it in Andy's interview, I will help you pay for that plane ticket Andy unless Pelosi continues to fly on a government jet, they aren't green or competitive! I am sorry that Matt and George were not there, I asked both of them to join also. George was called to fly an injury to the hospital and couldn't make it. Matt just said no.

This bodes very well for November. A grass roots team is forming of We The People and that is what it will take to send Ben home. Grass roots, hard work and preventing fraud will win this election, not money. Like Rand says, we're going to take our government back. Thank you all and send Andy and Rand to Washington!!!

Congratulations to Andy Barr and his entire team!

Andy Barr won against 5 other conservatives in a very high class race. This was one of the best run campaigns ever. Congratulations to the entire team. The margin was huge and the competition formidable. It is only a step and Andy said so tonight. The prize is less than 6 months away.

This member of a competitors team is now with you and will work hard to support Andy Barr for Congress! Please everybody know who the new opposition is, Rahm Emanuel. Ben is only a puppet, but the operator of this puppet is extremely well funded and one of the nastiest people alive. Both barrels will be fired at anybody in their way and Andy is exactly that!

This blog will go full time for Andy in any way that his team sees fit. I am only a cog on a gear but the better the team works, the better the results. For those of you on the team, please know that many, many things need to be accomplished. I offer my help with any part. You can comment below or email me at the address on the right.

GO ANDY GO!!!

Mike

Excellent candidates in May lead to wins in Nov.

If we don't gain control November 2 of the US house or senate, the tyranny will erode our freedom completely. Our very survival as America depends on getting at least one house in congress We have a chance in both.
All politics is local and we in central Ky. have the best opportunity to be heard. Ben Chandler is going home when the people are heard and we have to hold the senate seat. That is two big jobs as stimulus, union and liberal money will be spent in droves on both. That is November 2, 2010.
ACORN has reappeared in Louisville in a big way, wake up Trey. That will make John Yarmouth tough to beat. This site is not helping until the primary is over.
I prefer John Kemper for the 6th seat, but have come to like every one of the 6 candidates and we all agree on the November goal. Carol Barr (Andy's wife) and I have laughed a couple of times that we have a date May 19th. We do, as a unified group of conservatives. It has been wonderful to watch this group of Americans become friends and they have.
I hope that you watched the 912 group's debate of Rand and Trey. It shows very clearly the best candidate for senate now that Bill Johnson is out.
We need to educate our families, neighbors and coworkers. One at a time, take your time and explain that government can't do anything well. They all understand that!
United we stand, divided we fall. The conservatives need to take that moniker and nationalize it.

Mike

A new target

Record views on this page the last few days including 13 from house.gov. I guess I am now a target. Too bad Ben, we used to be friends and I supported your first campaign but since you won't return calls or emails, I am going to personally see to it that you move back to Versailles this November 2. I am only sorry that taxpayers will have to pay your retirement.
Mike

Ben Chandler drove by TEA Party tonight

We are being heard. Thank all of you! Tonight about 7:30 Leland was doing a great job rallying the crowd. Unnoticed by most was the Mercedes with the top down driving by. The operator of the Mercedes was Ben Chandler. This was not coincidence. He doesn't have time to meet a constituent, but has time to drive by a TEA party. FOLKS WE ARE BEING HEARD!!! Thank you. For those of you that don't go to these events, please join 912 and get involved. Our country is at stake and only united we stand. Always divided we fall.

Mike

John T. Kemper for congress

After many conversations and emails the decision on whom to support for Congress is made. John T. Kemper for congress. Here's why:

He is a true conservative and as a private businessman has been that way for a long time. He is electable and never delays in answering questions. He speaks from the heart and answers with a great look in the eye. He won't give in to what the machines want, in fact wants to throw out the machines based on grass roots support... right on Mr. Kemper. He is very quick on his feet in conversation and will be very strong in debate.

He has never been in politics, has no machine and will answer only to his constituents.

Mr. Kemper was the first to write back about meeting and I have seen him at every 912 and Tea Party meeting since. He is a realist and a businessman who knows that government is the problem, not the solution. Take that Ben, the blue lap dog!

These things combined give John Kemper the best chance to win, which is my number one goal. I hope you will join me in the effort. I will strongly support Andy Barr or Matt Lockett in the event of their primary win. They are both very good people also. Isn't good choice wonderful!

Mike Stephens

Bloody Sunday

Socialized medicine in the USSA. Freedom died last night 219 to 212 in the house. Arm yourselves heavily and be ready for revolution. No other solution is left after November. That means that we have 219 socialists in the house of representatives, 59 senators and the entire executive. That is the democrat party.
Never before in history has a major piece of legislation passed with no support from the party in the minority. But there is 2010 and it happened on Bloody Sunday.

If the majority of people in America don't get together in November, this country is over. The freedom that allowed individuals to prosper and create the highest standard of living in history has moved to European socialism as the people vote themselves money from the treasury.

Thomas Jefferson is gone and Saul Alinsky has become the center of the political class. We have one chance left and that is November. Today the media will tout this as a great day to promote the further advance of their socialists ideals.

Let's rise together and throw them out in mass.


Mike Stephens

Republican primary May 18th

One certainty, we need the most electable conservative in the May primary to beat Ben Chandler. I am very happy to say, we have excellent choices. I am still undecided. Does anybody know...is there a debate scheduled?

Relevant criteria to me...comments urged.

Conservatism

Electability

Credibility

Accessibility

Skeletons

Financial capability

Physical capability

Member of a machine


United we stand, divided we fall. Please comment, I need input!

Tyranny in Congress

For over a century the socialists have planned a slow erosion of freedom. Chip, chip, chip. The progressive implementation of the 16th and 17th amendments to the constitution in 1913 were the tools that allowed it to happen.

Today, our majority in congress knows more about Saul Alinsky than Thomas Jefferson and our president taught Alinsky to our youth while a professor in Chicago.


The radical left is trying now to use nonexistent rules to impose another takeover of private industry. This one is their goal... health care. Once they control your health, they control you... rationing, death panels and pain pills. It has failed everywhere in the world. The people are against this, but the socialists that run congress don't care, they want power and this is it.


Ben Chandler voted no on this the last time because the 3 vote win did not require his vote. It now does as they lost 3 votes as 2 died and one changed parties. Ben is under the gun and won't answer his phone. Please email him. chandler@house.gov


This is tyranny folks, implemented by the enemy within, Obama, Pelosi and Reid. Reid's wife was in a bad car wreck Wednesday with a broken neck. Where is Harry? In secret meetings, typical. We may have to go to Washington to stop this. They are trying to do this without a vote. The people are supposed to be in control, we are not, the radical left is. This is up to us and we have to shout now. Please write Ben and write him again.

GOP 6th in Kentucky

Returning to the original objective... replacing Ben Chandler with a conservative. I will be at Rand Paul's rally tomorrow at Ben's office and am going to ask for time with Matt and Andy. They are both conservative but only one will be the nominee. This victory needs to carry to November 2.
Do you believe in less government

How do you propose to accomplish that

Are you electable

Can you raise the money

Can you stand the heat


Please comment other questions as this won't occur at the rally. United we Stand and with understanding we win.

Bad day for freedom

Bill Johnson leaving the senate primary is a terrible loss in the battle for freedom. Our best candidate was squashed. I really hope that Bill will stay involved with local and congressional campaigns and build the communication network to take on Mitch in 2014. I will stay on this honorable man's team.

Bill,

You took on tremendous odds and invested heavily. At every appearance you were a man of "DUTY, HONOR and COUNTRY" It was an honor to serve with you sir. I will remain available to you and am terribly sorry that you are not going to be our next senator.


With utmost respect,


Mike Stephens

The Louisville debate

As usual, Rand won't face competition, neither will Trey. The real grass roots candidate is rising and the campaigns know it. The debate in Louisville Saturday was competition and that is what made this country great. If you are on the fence in the senate primary, home run Bill Johnson, like the last debate that was also covered up.


I hope money can't buy victory but I do stand with Rand and his press to unseat Ben Chandler. I hope that is a place where Bill and Rand make a unified statement. Friday at high noon at 1010 MonarcXXX Obama drive is the rally. Throw Ben the Spend out. Your voice matters a lot!!!

Machine politicians are the problem

The GOP dinner in Hyden was interesting for several reasons. The primary reason was the pride in pork displayed by the speakers. This is why the American people have lost faith in both parties. One participant in this was Trey Grayson, another Hal Rogers. Machine politicians are the problem in both parties. The tea partiers are the true Americans that believe in limited government and reduced spending, not pork. The machines need to go May 18th.

Bill Johnson only got a few seconds from his table to address the full gym. As always he said the EPA and other big government programs have to be eliminated. This is why the tea partiers like me are moving fast to Bill. We need businessmen to run Washington, not politicians.


Trey Grayson is Mitch's chosen continuation of the machine. Rand Paul is a part of a different machine with over 30 years in politics and most of his money and help from outside Kentucky. Bill Johnson has never been in a part of politics. If you want the truth and less government, you have an excellent candidate in Bill. He answers email and returns phone calls. Try that with the others.


Please look hard at this race. America is on the edge of socialism and Bill is the best candidate to win in November and govern for the people, not for himself.

The guy on the left points from his anointed tower while looking down his nose. The guy on the right works to achieve his goals. I would love to see these 2 in November. Yes Leland, a picture is worth a thousand words, this one more. It's priceless and indicative of a liberal, Mongiardo on the left and a conservative, Bill Johnson on the right.

Education is the key to winning elections and bringing America back from socialism.

First, some history. Even most of the democrat party was somewhat conservative in 1960. Look at Kennedy, from Massachusetts, tax cuts, strong defense and many others. Johnson who took over after Kennedy's death was a socialist and did not run again in 1968 because of certain defeat. He had already done his damage with both houses of congress joining him.

The federal government with the "Great Society" of Johnson imposed control over education. Formerly, state's rights. Before that happened our SAT and ACT scores were the highest in the world or second every year. Johnson's intent was to remove history and replace it with socialist propaganda in the classrooms of America. That is exactly what has been getting worse ever since.

Bush 43, another more government activist, furthered it with "No Child left behind." Now our test scores are not in the top 20. Those of us that are conservatives know that the government can't do anything right and this planned destruction has to be removed and history returned to the classroom.

The first time I heard Bill Johnson speak, he started with removing the Department of Education. Number 1 issue. He is exactly right and a true conservative. The Department of Propaganda and all its unions have to be removed. In the mean time it is up to us to educate because most schools don't know what civics is and aren't allowed to teach it. Our friends, families and neighbors need to be educated to the benefits of freedom and the corruption of government. This job is up to us and is critical.

That is how we win elections and take our country back. GO BILL GO!

In the summer of 1787 delegations from all over the future USA met in Philadelphia to write the constitution. After months of discussions, the overall idea was that the 13 colonies would be experiments in freedom and the federal government would have only 2 responsibilities. The defense of the nation and to solve disputes between the states. All other things were left to the states. The bill of rights had to be added before the states would ratify.

Big government power brokers have manipulated the constitution ever since. The progressives in 1913 started the decline with the 16th and 17th amendments. The government is now the problem, not the solution and it is time to throw out the power brokers from both parties. We need to go back to the system that was designed not to allow them in the first place. This is done by elections.


The senate primary in Kentucky is a classic case. Conservatism has a chance in the GOP only, so the democratic primary is ignored here. The GOP primary has 6 candidates, 3 of which have a chance.


Our current Secretary of State is Trey Grayson. He went to the national democratic convention on behalf of Bill Clinton. After he changed parties to go to work for Ernie Fletcher, he was discovered by Mitch McConnell and has been under his wing the whole way to now. This is the perfect example of a political opportunist and machine politician. Trey is a RINO that blows with the wind and money. Ever heard of Arlen Specter. NO WAY TREY.


Rand Paul is in the private sector, somewhat. He went to his first national political convention in 1976 and ran his dad's campaign for president in 2008. I don't think he saw many patients that year! Rand has been very clear over the years that he is a Libertarian. I like that better than RINO but I am a conservative. Initially I signed up to help Rand. I never heard from his campaign. I wrote to David Adams, the manager and offered my help again. No answer. Because of my concern about a rising conservative I wrote David again about that and volunteering. I know he got the email because he forwarded it to the rising star. So did I. David didn't write me back even though he obviously read it. The rising star wrote me back quickly. If you won't answer a volunteer but forward his email, what do you do once in power?


Bill Johnson is a nuclear engineer that worked in that capacity in the US Navy. His last 13 years have been spent in the private sector all over the world, the last 6 as a buyer for BP. He is an energy expert on many levels. He has never run for office or participated on a campaign. Before I joined his team, I went to hear him speak. One of the first things he said was that the Department of Education should be eliminated. $45 billion a year saved. I was impressed. He went on to say that the EPA should be eliminated. Another $10billion. This is better than Rand and from a solid individual that has never been in politics. He came to the 9-12 meeting in Lexington later in the snow and spent 3 hours there without making a speech. He only answered questions from everybody. I understand he is always the first to events and the last to leave. I am totally onboard and will knock on many many doors this May for Bill Johnson.


I hope you will join me. Sign up, donate, but most, educate your neighbors and friends. It's time for the grass roots to get rid of lifetime politicians. We have a classic case and a rising star in Bill Johnson. www.kentuckybill.com
