Taking the high ground

The Liberal mass media and newspapers are waging a never ending campaign against anything and anyone who is not a Progressive. They have taken the High Ground and have established themselves as the true “Spokesperson” for the entire United States of America. At this point you may be saying, “tell me something I don't know.”

A few months ago, I hear a retire Air Force general who reminded me of something I had forgotten. Those of us who were in the military took an Oath; it was an Oath that does not have an expiration date. Our country is counting on us to remember that Oath. We need to retake the High Ground.

Wars are not won by throwing the dice for one final major battle, but my winning numerous small engagements, to out maneuver your opponent for the final victory.  Our “small engagements” will be in our communities, our cities, our counties, our state and finally our country.

Each of us and our respected Tea Party groups has special talents and desires; we need to commit those resources for specific engagements that complement these skills.  Starting now, we need to attend each and every school board meeting in your community.  Education yourself on the issues, contact your school board members, and sign up to speak at the school board meetings.  Become an expert on your local school board, hold them accountable, and let them know if their values are in alignment with yours.  This same strategy needs to be applied to the State Board of Education and the Texas Education Agency.  Additionally, we need to become experts on our city councils, the same as with our local school boards.

Tea Party groups and its members need to be reading and writing to the local and national newspapers each and every day.  We need to respond to each and every article that appears in these newspapers that attack our core beliefs. Write letters to the Editor let them there is another side to an issue, copy the writer and their sources.  If an elected official makes outlandish statements, contact their office and let them know, there are two sides to every issue and they all come with a vote.  We need to support our elected official who makes a stand for our values and let them know that we are standing behind them.  This same strategy needs to be applied to television networks.  When they broadcast outlandish information in support of Progressive groups, let them know there is another side to that story.  If they produce T.V. shows that attack family values and attack state and national leaders who promote family values, led them know there is another side to that coin.

Write letters and E-mails to the member of our state and federal legislators; let them know your thoughts, both for and against their position(s).  Find out who are the members of the various committees and what their position on any given issue is, and share with them your thoughts.  Support legislators from other states and contact their opponents and let them know why you are supporting that legislator.

Support our service men and women, contact the USO and the various military groups and let them know you can be a resource for them.  Volunteer at a VA hospital or clinic, make hospital visits, go to the airports and train stations and welcome our service men and women home.

 Most of all pray for our families and for single mothers who are just overwhelm with the lost of a husband and father.
