tom3The Florida Political Press is the brainchild of Tom Tillison and other local tea party activists. After many conversations, and much frustration, about the consistent left leaning bias in the ‘other’ choice for information in Central Florida, the need became apparent for a news source that not only included the conservative point of view, but a news source that was willing to cover the stories that were not being reported by the media.

Our objective is to inform Central Florida voters, arming them with accurate information that will allow them to make their own decisions on what is happening in the world around us.  There is much emphasis on the politics of the left and right in America, yet, the media, and it’s role in society, largely escapes scrutiny.  For too long, the media in this country has lost its focus on reporting the news and has evolved into an entity whose purpose is to drive ideology.  This is a disservice not only to the citizens of this great country, but to the very principles that America was founded on.

We, as a country, seem to have completely forgotten to expect a watchdog press. A press that efficiently keeps an eye on the government and lets us know when something is wrong and back us up with encouragement not condemnation when we fight back against the misguided and power hungry people at the top of government.

Ours is a lofty goal - to become the prime news source for conservatives in Central Florida.  We are grassroots, we have no funding and no corporate structure to support our efforts, yet, we will endeavor on, with the assistance of thousands of citizen journalists who are encouraged to contribute.  We are in very troubling times in America, a time where the very makeup of what America stands for is up for debate, and we feel that the citizens of this country deserve accurate and honest information to engage in this important discussion.

Of Condoms And Coppertone, Or Maternity And Melanoma

Of Condoms And Coppertone, Or Maternity And Melanoma

By David Folsom

Much energy has been expended in the past few weeks regarding the Obama/Sebelius mandate that religious groups cover the full cost of contraceptives.

The administration came out with their version of “compromise” allowing the religious groups themselves exemption, but mandating that their insurers cover the cost. Great example of Democrats’ “compromise.”

‘Evolve Or Die’ Begins With A Heavy Dose Of Reality

By Tom Tillison

Ryan takes a hard hitting approach with Tea Party Express, but doesn’t follow suit with Tea Party Patriots, barely mentions Tea Party Nation, gives FreedomWorks a complete pass and there’s no mention whatsoever of the latest of what seems like an endless line of opportunists, TeaParty.net.

It seems unfair when you consider any one of the above is as detrimental as the other. In each case, don’t look too closely behind the mirror.

Maitland Holocaust Memorial Center and Hamas Supporter Exposed

By Alan Kornman

On January 29, 2012 the Holocaust Memorial Resource & Education Center of Florida (HMREC) co-hosted an event with Sunni Imam Muhammad Musri of the Islamic Society of Central Florida. The event was; BESA – Albanian Muslim Rescuers During the Holocaust.

The Albanian “Bektashi” Muslims who saved 2,000 Jews during World War 2 were awarded the title, “Righteous Among the Nations” by the State of Israel. Righteous Among the Nations is an honorific title awarded to recognize non-Jews who risked their lives saving Jews from extermination by the Nazis…

Why, The Babies? Why?

By Lloyd Marcus

In their isolated inside the beltway arrogance, it appears the Obama administration did not anticipate the huge “blow back”, resulting from Obama’s decree that Catholic institutions provide birth control, abortion drugs and other contraceptive services.

This latest attack on the unborn is simply more of the same from Obama. As an Illinois Senator, Obama voted against the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act which authorized hospital staff to…

Hey Sucker, Who Do You Like In The Presidential Primary?

Hey Sucker, Who Do You Like In The Presidential Primary?

By Allen Wilson

Agendas don’t matter, programs don’t matter, legislation doesn’t matter until our representatives all are abundantly aware that we the people are willing to take control.

Once that fact is firmly ingrained in their psyche then we can get them to govern, to listen, and to act. Until then everything else is just background noise…
