The Pickens Plan & Crony Capitalism

By Ned Ryun

I still find it strange when those who claim they believe in free enterprise, limited government, reducing government intervention in the marketplace and fiscal responsibility, suddenly take an “Everywhere but in my house” approach. I am referring to the more than 80 House Republicans, many of whom claim to be conservatives, who are co-sponsoring H.R. 1380, otherwise known as the Pickens Plan after Texas energy tycoon, T. Boone Pickens.

Our Lives, Fortunes & Sacred Honor – All Gave Some

By Jason Hoyt

In March of 2011, I was asked by Michael Patrick Leahy, founder of the popular Twitter hashtag #TCOT (Top Conservatives on Twitter), creator of the TCOT Report, and co-host of the original conference calls that launched the nationwide tea party movement, to join the Advisory Group for the new eBook series, “Voices of the Tea Party”.

The series is being published by Broadside Books, a division of Harper Collins.

George Washington; Thanksgiving Proclamation

[New York, 3 October 1789]

By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.

Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor– and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God…

Video; David Barton of Wallbuilders Endorses Marco Rubio for US Senate

A Tea Party Pledge to the 112th Congress

We the citizens of America, having been faithful to the traditions of our Founding Fathers and those dedicated to the long-established American dream, pledge to be constantly vocal, vigilant, and instructive to Congress and the executive branch of the federal government regarding our feelings for, and rights under, the Constitution. We will persistently call upon the GOP to mean what they say with their Pledge to America dated September 23, 2010, and:

Never again allow the GOP, home of traditional conservatism, to hijack our dreams with moderate and liberal positions contrary to our American values, annually scoring each and every member of Congress on their adherence to the Pledge to America.

The Left’s Psychological Assault on Independence

By Jason Hoyt

The American Thinker recently published an article backed by research and published findings regarding a topic that seems to have risen to a boiling point in America, especially with this administration’s stated goal of “social justice”.

For a over a century now, the progressive left has assaulted our national as well as individual independence, and many communities have fallen for their dangerous promises.

With so many Americans engaged in this great political awakening, we must determine how to engage troubled communities throughout this great country and dislodge them from the bondage of dependence and victimization. If we don’t, who will?

Ex-Florida GOP Chair Greer Arrested on Unknown Charges

Share
Former Chairman of the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) was arrested today. A small step in reforming the party, indeed. We need not forget this and remind existing and all future party leaders of the consequences of their actions,…or better yet, ensure people like this aren’t elected to their positions.
