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 it’s focus on reporting the news and has evolved into an entity who’s 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.

Justice Ginsburg Violates Her Oath

Justice Ginsburg Violates Her Oath

By KrisAnne Hall

Our founders deliberately did not establish a democracy, because in that form of government, the majority would always choke to death the desire for Liberty of a minority. Yet another point that Mrs. Ginsberg might be wise to share with Egypt instead of encouraging them to strive “to achieve a general democracy…”

The dichotomy of her praise and criticism of our founders and our Constitution shows that she is greatly misinformed of both…

Decision 2012, What Does It All Mean?

By Allen Wilson

Good bye Presidential hoopla we’ll see you in August.

But for now, let’s turn our thoughts to more pressing problems for Florida and the nation. Fasten your seat belts folks; it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

This won’t be a Tea Party vs the Establishment event, that’s just so 2010. No, this is a showcase for Agenders, Fair Taxers, Occupiers (well they don’t really vote do they”), and GOOOH’ers…

Tired Of Political Elitists Picking Our Candidates?

By Rick Steeby

I am not a fan of this two-party system where your personal beliefs have to be compromised to one party platform or the other based on the lesser of two evils.

I am reminded of my own words of how Congress has become entrenched and regardless of party they are more concerned with the power and the prestige of office then in service to their country.

Romney Wins, What’s Next?

By Tom Tillison

So after three years of toil by thousands of average everyday citizens who’ve sacrificed far more than they ever cared to, Florida supports John McCain yet again, just in a prettier package.

And just as in 2008, Florida will be the impetus that thrusts this better wrapped version identified as Mitt Romney one step closer to an eventual match up with Barack Obama.

There will be plenty of coverage breaking down the final numbers…

Clouds On A Sunny Day

Clouds On A Sunny Day

By Allen Wilson

I remember the instant that the mood changed.

As my lens focused beyond the Washington Monument and upon the Capital Dome I recognized that I no longer felt proud of this city. I was embarrassed that under that dome sat men and women who first thought of themselves before they thought of their nation.
