Election Season 2014

And it has brought us to this trainwreck called ObamaCare and we have bankrupted our kids and grandkids!

We are now headed into the 2014 Election Season and common sense and conservatism are on the rise. Please stand-up and be counted!

Reading Collusion: How the Media Stole the 2012 Election is a great place to start!

The Founding Father's Real Reason for the Second Amendment

And remember the words of Thomas Jefferson "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." See Video of Suzanna Gratia-Hupp’s Congressional Testimony: What the Second Amendment is REALLY For, below (u-tube HERE).

Rand Paul to filibuster?

News as we go into Independence Day.  Rand Paul may filibuster the Senate until they debate the debt ceiling.

Tea Party favorite Sen. Rand Paul is planning a filibuster sometime next week to bring the debt ceiling negotiations to the Senate, the Huffington Post is reporting.

“We’ve not had one minute of debate about the debt ceiling in any committee,” the Kentucky Republican told C-SPAN’s “Newsmakers” in a Sunday interview. He said after not having a budget or an appropriations bill in two years, he’s “part of the freshmen group in the Senate that’s saying, ‘No more.’”

So next week, he’ll take a stand: he’ll filibuster until negotiations about the debt ceiling take place on the floor of the Senate.

A group of conservative senators plan to present their own proposal to raise the debt limit, hand-in-hand with a balanced budget amendment.

Paul’s declaration of an impending filibuster comes after an attempt by a fellow Republican, Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson. Last Tuesday, Johnson blocked all unanimous consent calls, the equivalent of halting any and all Senate business.
