CALL TO ARMS - TEA PARTIES UNITE


Someone is calling to take up guns! I can hear it now. From the Progressive Socialist Democrats that have no problem saying what ever it takes to gain or stay in power, how will they spin (lie) about it?

The Democratic Party has been taken over in leadership by Progressive Socialist. People with beliefs and thought processes that most real Democrats wouldn't agree with. The Republican Party isn't much better. Mostly they are moving slower but there are still a lot of Progressive members of the Republican Party.



Both parties are afraid of the Tea Party Movement. The Democrats want to call members of the Tea Party Movement names and attempt to marginalize them. A lot of Republicans want to try and bring them in, but if they did that would the movement cease?



Many on the Republican side will say that a third party such as the Tea Party Movement would only take away from Republicans and put Democrats in office. Can either party be trusted? I think not and Washington D.C. needs a shock and make over.



It is important to take EGO out of the picture. Look at some of these elected officials that have been in office so long that they think the seat is THEIR seat. They think they know best and that we are too dumb to understand what needs to be done. Even though these same people vote for a bill they haven't even read.



I say to all Tea Parties get the EGO out and come together and wrap our arms together in a line that can't be broken. We need a true National third party that isn't beholden to the old way of life in DC. We need common men and women making the laws. People who won't write 10 pages to say something that can be said in 1 page. People who just want to go and try and get the country back to the way the founders intended then go home and live.



It is time we think out of the box and act outside of the box. It is time for all Patriots to come together and form a party that is for the people and the constitution of the United States. Where do we start? Getting our EGO's out of the way. We can't have this a a better Tea Party Group or that is a better Tea Party Group. We all have good intentions and desires for our country. We agree about so many things so if we can put the Ego in it's pen then we can and should work together.



Who will take the lead to start a National Tea Party? But with that we also need local Tea Parties. It is time and it is needed.

April, 2010 Platinum Fleecer Award


To honor the memory of the Last Great American Statesman, William Proxmire (Wisconsin Senator for 32 years) whose “Golden Fleece Awards” uncovered shameless pork barrel projects and focused media attention on all manner of self-serving, waste, and corruption in the United States government: Rajjpuut has since June, 2009, been awarding the “Platinum Fleecer” to the elected or appointed official or private citizen most deserving of the illustrious title.

The April 2010 Platinum Fleecer WINNER is:

California Representative Henry Waxman

Waxman hasn’t been as visible as he might have been, but whenever socialistic boondoggles are being contemplated, Waxman has been one of the main “enablers” for House Speaker Pelosi. Waxman, who has been feeding at the public trough in Washington D.C. for over thirty-five years, has since 2006, been Chairman of the House Oversight and Government "Reform" Committee which is supposed to be the principle agency looking out for the citizens’ well-being vis a vis government abuses . . . our single most helpful friend in D.C. Under Waxman’s “leadership,” however, the Reform Committee is just another boot on the public’s neck.

A few weeks ago, all the liberal media made a huge deal out of Henry Waxman saying he would force the CEOs of several large corporations to “come clean” about their recent financial reports (required by law) about how that fiscal disaster known as Obamacare would rape their companies’ solvency. Waxman, the media let us know, planned to punish the corporate leaders for their “irresponsible, politically-motivated statements saying that Obamacare was putting their businesses in financial jeopardy by dragging these CEOs into a hearing “where the truth will come out.” The CEO’s, of course, let it be known that their “revelations” were required by law. Yesterday, Waxman, weaseled out of the confrontation by cancelling the hearings which would have been, by his own design, extremely high profile. The CEOs are disappointed and the liberal leaning mainstream media is either choosing NOT to run the story of Waxman's cancellation, or burying it in a tiny paragraph on page 23.

Waxman is a weasel. He paraded before the photographers and TV cameramen implying he was going to expose these CEOs for their conspiracy to play politics on the American people by making it seem like his beloved Obamacare would set many of them on the road to bankruptcy . . . he would compel them to testify before the American people and bring the fat cats down in shame and defend Obamacare. Waxman, of course, never mentioned that these CEOs were required by laws created by the U.S. Congress to reveal this information on legal forms created by the congressional laws and that this information was uniformly bleak: Obamacare would devastate their companies. Now, not with such a grandiloquent bang, but rather a whisper, he announces the hearings will not take place. His motive, not to be embarrassed in public when his hearings could have been publicized to all Americans . . . and reveal the truth . . . which is exactly opposite to thestated purpose of the Committee that Waxman chairs, a committee designed about the new Obamacare law and to expose the fraud, waste, incompetence and self-serving nature of government programs.

The mainstream media, naturally, did NOT deem the follow-up story worthy of their time or newsprint (you know them, the same group that never fails to run unfounded allegations by Democrats of the TEA Party’s racism, hate-mongering and stupidity). If Waxman was a huge enabler of Obamacare, the mainstream media is a huge enabler of the Henry Waxmans running this country.

Throwing dirt onto corporate America and others who create the jobs and opportunity responsible for greatness is a common Waxman ploy. Apparently the fellow has never seen honest work he doesn’t despise. This compulsory hearing (lots of talk about subpoenas being served in the original story) was to be just another of Waxman’s crusades against evil capitalists . . . but it bit him in the butt and the weasel didn’t have the grace to announce that he was wrong, the CEOs were right and Obamacare would bankrupt the nation as well as its companies – that would have been way too forthright for our public servant Henry Waxman.

Congratulations, April, 2010 Platinum-Fleecer Award winner, California Democratic Representative Henry Waxman , you've certainly weaseled your way into this award!

Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

April, 2010 Truman-Reagan-Kennedy Statesmanship Award

In honor of the memories of Harry S Truman (just a letter no middle name), Ronald Wilson Reagan and John Fitzgerald Kennedy, three of the most diligent and competent statesmen in world history, Rajjpuut will be awarding a monthly Truman-Reagan-Kennedy Award for statesmanship. Whole encyclopedias could be written about these three men.

Truman, a hero in World War I made the courageous decision to drop the atom bomb ending World War II and saving an estimated one million American fighting men from death or wounding. He also inspired the Dixiecrats to leave the Democratic Party at great political risk to himself, Truman who was raised a segregationist, integrated the armed forces. And unlike his successor Eisenhower, Truman was an immediate and powerful vocal opponent of Joe McCarthy and his communist witch hunts.

Reagan personally intervened to get the final funding and stinger missiles that spelled the defeat of the Big Red Soviet Military Machine in Afghanistan. His confrontational style (“Tear Down This Wall, Mr. Gorbachev!”) but willingness to talk face-to-face helped bring about the fall of communism and the Warsaw Pact, the end of the Soviet Union and Cold War and yes, the smashing of the Berlin Wall: not a bad legacy for “the Great Communicator!”

Kennedy inspired warm hope among jaded American voters. He, like Reagan, made a courageous speech in the shadow of the Berlin Wall. Most importantly, Kennedy stood tough upon discovering that the Soviet Union had moved missiles to Cuba just 90 miles off America’s shores and put the whole world on a nuclear disaster watch by blockading the island and demanding removal of the missiles. Like his book “Profiles in Courage,” Kennedy, a World War II hero, practiced what he preached.

The April, 2010, Truman-Reagan-Kennedy Statesmanship Award WINNER is:

Tennessee Representative Marsha Blackburn

For the second consecutive month Tennessee Representative Marsha Blackburn has earned the coveted statesmanship award after sharing the award last time out with James Inhofe. Blackburn has repeatedly demonstrated that she not only has perhaps the most level head in the House of Representatives, but she also has the guts to use it and the faith in our Constitution to ennoble America and her fellow countrymen at every turn in the discussion. Sheis probably the most consistent and one of the most eloquent voices in opposition to the widespread Big Guv expansions engineered by the Obama Administration.

Within a year of her election to congress, Marsha had already been named a “Taxpayer Hero” by the Americans for Tax Reform and is serving her second session as Deputy Whip and is most famous for being the questioner who put Al Gore on the spot about his conflicted connections in the energy industry with the simple, “"The legislation that we are discussing here today, is that something that you are going to personally *** benefit from?”

Recently, Representative Blackburn was one of the Republicans in the room challenging the assertions of Barak Obama about all the good that his Obamacare initiatives would bring to the country. She has long championed tort reform to lower doctors’ malpractice costs and cut down on unnecessary defensive medical actions; across state border health insurance options; and removing abortion and other elective surgery payments by the federal government. Along with Inhofe, Blackburn has probably been the single biggest voice against Cap and Trade. Recently when Obama tried to over-ride the lack of senate votes by making Cap and Trade a de facto law in the form of an Environmental Protective Agency directive, Blackburn was immediately on her feet attacking the EPA for violating its own laws in making the directive; and it now appears that opposition has forced the EPA to delay implementation of its recent directive from this April to sometime next year. Inspired by Blackburn’s tough stance Texas and Virginia have sued the EPA for, using the refuted and disputed IPCC and CRU findings as the basis for their directive when the law says the studies involved must be done by the EPA itself.

Let us once again congratulate the April, 2010, Winner of the Truman-Reagan-Kennedy Statesmanship Award: Tennessee Representative Marsha Blackburn

Ya'all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

*** Rajjpuut’s recent revelation that both Gore and Obama are guilty of conflict of interest in pressing for Cap and Trade legislation and aim to profit Billion$$ via CCX clearly justifies Blackburn’s audacious attack.

When you think about idle or under-used factories all around the United States like those in Indiana, Michigan, Georgia and Tennesse where automobiles used to be built, it’s obvious that for the hoped-for recovery to get anywhere near the 138 million non-farm jobs we had around 2006, those factories need to start up again and get humming with the production of new automobiles, or perhaps, retooled and modernized . . . producing new something elses. For those who don’t think the government is the problem, listen to the words of Tennessee Representative Marsha Blackburn, a member of the House energy and commerce committee . . . .

“Not far from my district the Spring Hill plant sits idle. GM pulled out of Spring Hill, once the proud home to the Saturn line, in the wake of its bankruptcy last year. Reopening the plant, either for the production of cars or anything else, will be critical to jobs growth in Middle Tennessee. At a listening session with constituents who live in the 7th district and used to commute to work in Spring Hill, the message was clear: to get the plant up and running again, Washington is going to have to do ... less.

Washington, or more specifically the Environmental Protection Agency, poses a significant challenge to any new enterprise that hopes to revitalize Spring Hill and Tennessee’s economy. While Tennesseans are looking for a new owner to come in, take over the Spring Hill plant and get it producing again, the EPA has proposed a series of regulations that would require businesses to certify they have limited carbon emissions or pay steep fines. These regulations are a result of their “endangerment finding” under the Clean Air Act that carbon dioxide and other green house gasses pose a threat to human life. (Rajjpuut interjects here . . . The EPA was violating its own rules with these “endangered findings.” They are prohibited by law*** from making environmental regulations based upon somebody else’s studies such as the discredited CRU “global-warming” nonsense. They must conduct their own studies and base all regulations only upon their own studies, if the studies prove conclusively that the moves are warranted. Marsha Blackburn continues . . . .)

“The new greenhouse gas rules will require anyone who buys the Spring Hill plant and performs any modifications on it — which they will likely have to do — to analyze all the greenhouse gas emissions from the plant and from all its potential new processes. Any new owner will have to report these emissions to the EPA. All the while, Tennesseans remain jobless.

“Most possible uses for the Spring Hill plant would cause the plant to exceed the 25,000 annual tons of carbon dioxide emissions the EPA proposes to allow, classifying it as a “major emitter.” Major emitters must go through additional review and permitting by the EPA, a process that could take months or years. These are years when an entrepreneur owns, maintains, and pays taxes on a non-productive facility — clearly a disincentive to anyone thinking of reopening a plant in the United States.

“To add to the cost, the EPA will require major emitters to purchase and install the ‘best available control technology’ to reduce emissions to an acceptable level. Even when that equipment is installed, the new owner isn’t done with EPA-imposed costs. Because the EPA found that the Clean Air Act applies to carbon dioxide, any new owners of the Spring Hill plant are open to being sued if the carbon capture technology fails or the plant ever exceeds the EPA emission ceiling. Such a specter of unanticipated cost would hang over the plant for its entire operational life. While potential new owners calculate the possible cost, Tennesseans go jobless.

“As Washington works to balance economic impact with the need to spur energy independence, the EPA lurks on the Hill with these disastrous carbon restrictions in its briefcase, threatening to detonate them on the economy in the event that the Senate doesn’t meet its minimum standard of economy-killing carbon limits. Its actions are a clear executive overreach.”

The rest of Blackburn’s commentary can be found at:

http://thehill.com/special-reports/earth-day-april-2010/93643-epa-stands-in-the-way-of-recovery

She proposed a bill that would void the EPA’s endangerment findings and prohibit the agency from regulating carbon emissions under the auspices of the Clean Air Act in an effort to help the Spring Hill plant re-emerge from its near death experience. She then talked about the EPA announcing a video contest with a $2,500 prize to help Americans appreciate how EPA regulations and the entire regulatory process “benefits the citizens.” The fact of the matter is that the EPA’s regulations are killing the country and are a huge part of the problem and the proposed Cap and Trade legislation would cost America at least $220 Billion each and every year it’s in effect probably much more. One of Mr. Obama’s cronies at CCX (the Chicago Climate eXchange) has admitted on TV that their group sees climate exchange as a “Ten TRillion Dollar industry.” Since that industry produces nothing but only sells literal “blue sky nothingness to the productive parts of the economy (a shakedown, if you will, by the EPA) then the rest of the economy must lose $10 TRillion for the CCX to exist since the output of the whole non-government economy is now between $15-$16 TRillion . . . you get an idea of just what a raping cap and trade will prove to our nation and its future. Clearly, Mr. Obama as a board member of CCX is operating in conflicting of interest when he pushed the legislative process and again when he commanded the EPA to regulate carbon emissions a la cap and trade. You can read the specifics of this illegal and unconstitutonal matter and of Al Gore’s and President Obama’s betrayal in these three prior Rajjpuut’s Folly blogs:

http://rajjpuutsfolly.blogtownhall.com/2010/04/30/obama_c_and_t_corruption_bared_for_all_to_see,_media_ignores.thtml

As mentioned often by this blogger, the President has been repeatedly guilty of illegal and unconstitutional acts. After his impeachment, it would also be fitting and proper if the mainstream media that aided and abetted his rise to power and his illegal activities by refusing to engage in journalism but instead served as cheerleaders who refused to vett his connections, his activities and his personal background . . . Obama’s betrayal might be great but the betrayal of mainstream journalism upon the American people has been greater. Here Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn explains the simplest truths that are so basic to understanding how a capitalist economy creates jobs . . . and yet such a story is never a part of the media’s “hot topics,” never.

Like Obama himself, the EPA has seriously overstepped their bounds and the misuse of bureaucratic power by the president and by the EPA is a huge problem. Ask the folks around Fresno county (the richest vegetable-growing region in the world) about their nearly 40% unemployment in some areas while the EPA to save the purportedly endangered Delta Smelt has forbidden use of irrigation piping and pumping in the region to save the smelt. The Fresno county workers got shafted by the EPA during a drought; and the consumers are paying much more for vegetables thanks to the EPA . . . and the EPA with such nonsense is killing the economy.

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut
*** The efforts of Marsha Blackburn and other Republicans in other states, made the EPA back down from their illegal stance. Supposedly, they canNOT return to this kind of heavy-handedness unless they themselves prove that global-warming is occurring and dangerous and that human activity is driving it. Of course we know from the Climate-Gate scandal that global-warming is a trumped-up result created by overzealous environmentalists pretending to do science but actually "cooking the books" by manipulation of data, as verified by the following article by the very liberal London Times talking about the actions of fellow Brits:
twelve days after the Climate-Gate data manipulation scandal at the East Anglia Climate Research Unit (CRU) erupted, the most important liberal voice in Europe recognized the error of its ways and stopped promoting the lie that is "global-warming" but five months later our American media is still cheerleading for global-warming and for the godawful cap and trade and for the progressive Obama administration that will further kill our economy if allowed . . . and they still refuse to print any meaningful coverage of climate-gate; of cap and trade or about the connections between Gore, Obama, Goldman Sachs and several progressive foundationsa and CCX . . . .

Let's Take the 4th of July Off!

I know many of us will be off from work on the 4th of July, as a paid holiday, but I say we take a tax free day on the 4th. Much like the Boston Tea party our goal will be to show the government we are so against taxes we will spend the 4th of July finding ways to not pay taxes. Here are a few tips:

Dont buy anything on the 4th of July! We can eliminate a significant amount of tax revenue and can raise a whole lot of awareness from those in Washington.

Do not go to work on the 4th of July! I don't mean take a vacation day or holiday, I mean for you to tell your employer that you do not want to be paid that day and you can work if you want too but the impact it could have on society if you didn't, would be great. The amount of income tax revenue from this action would be significant enough to let our elected officials remember who put them in office.

Regards,

Kevin

The Inexplicable

Discrediting the Tea Party is analogous with discrediting my Constitution, the one that protects my rights, not the one government and courts practice. Mine includes God-given rights; theirs is limited to manmade rights, or “entitlements.” It brings to mind this: Are you interested in enhancing your life?

Something inexplicable , everyone agrees, happened at Roswell, N.M. on July 2, 1947. It began with the observation of a large glowing object flying at high speed at 9:52 P.M. Later that night sheep rancher Mac Brazel, who lived southwest of Roswell, heard a tremendous explosion. In the morning, reputedly, he found scattered over a quarter-mile area fragments of a foil-like material, pliable, but very tough, and always returned to its original shape when crumpled.

About that time, the 509th Bomb Group of the Eighth Air Force, Roswell Army Air Field, gained possession of a UFO disc through the cooperation of a rancher and the Chaves County Sheriff. It was reported by the Bomb Group that a UFO had been recovered. It caused a sensational news story. The report was quickly corrected. It was changed to the wreckage of a weather balloon, but just like many, many government lies, nothing about the government story fit the facts. In any event, since the Roswell event, all UFO reports, and there have been a great many, have been explained away by government. It’s balled lightening, reflections, geese, imagination, planets, swamp gas—we should not question government. Didn’t you know that it was voices of dissent that caused the Oklahoma City bombing? Just asked Bill Clinton.

So why has all hard evidence been hidden? The 509th Bomb Group just happened to be the Bomb Group armed with atom bombs. One question raises another. Why hide the fact that UFOs are real? Some form of intelligence is among us that knows a great deal more than the public knows about what is for the good of all. I think it has a lot to do with the atom bomb. UFOs started appearing in growing numbers only after the A-Bomb was discovered and tested. Coincidence, or could they be here to save us from ourselves?

Who knows what we face? The wise plan for the worst and hope for the best. The opposition, the foolish, spend, borrow, and hope for the best. They’ve been winning elections for 70 years, which brings me to “too big to fail.” What the hell is behind it? It seems to me, considering the end of the dinosaurs, the fall of the Roman empire, the collapse of the British empire, too big to fail is an end in and of itself, merely an excuse by those in control to put off the inevitable: the complete collapse of a system gone awry. In the end, we don’t have a choice. We become slaves. I hope I’m wrong, but it pays to look within for answers that make sense to you.

For instance, in Too Big to Fail, by Andrew Ross Sorkin, a political thriller guaranteed to make you sick in the stomach, Sorkin goes behind the scenes of the financial crises of the Wall Street billionaires to report the backroom wheeling and dealing, and secret alliances made between government and Wall Street in an effort to save the world’s economy from melting down. ObamaCare, the UFO cover-up, the government-Wall Street cover-up, all have been for the good of all?

Are we created, individually, with reason and logic for a special purpose—above the law of the jungle? Are all of us created with equal opportunity? Or, are certain of us blessed at birth with exceptional skills in leading the masses, the holier than thou intelligentsia with a destiny of doing—for-the-good-of-all? My-O-my! My life story says the former is the higher law of nature for humans.

For the most part, my Constitution backs me, but not altogether, Oh no! Although government lies like a dog (for the good of all), as long as the lies are conveniently well intentioned, and couched in constitutional terms by glib tongued lawyers trained by eastern law schools, no matter how unbelievable government’s claims are, the courts mostly favor government. After all, the judges on our benches are graduates of said eastern law schools.

We know that we can’t fight it so we try not to think about it. For generation after generation, the same cycle keeps repeating itself: from freedom to tyranny, from tyranny to freedom. By thinking about it, I beat the all-powerful IRS. So I say screw the courts! I took their sorry record to the press and got a front page story.

There is a subtle energy building that is not measurable, quantitatively. The IRS melted like a snowball in hell. We have no idea of the power that lies within us. The ancients had the right answers, and now the cutting edge of science, the universe is put together in a totally foreign way to most of our thinking. What we see—what the authorities want us to see—is the tip of the iceberg. The cutting edge of science is looking below the surface, at the microcosmic. You can’t disconnect simply because it doesn’t act like the world we know. The quantum mind is the real reality. There is no boundary. Based on what the status quo says, we place the boundary. Subtle energy we know little about is building in us. It may not be discernable, but we’ve reached the point in our human development when we are ready for our next great leap forward—when the spooky action of our minds combine the parts of our brains with experience, from many senses into one memory: my memory; your memory oscillating simultaneously at the same frequency. Subtle energy, consciously and unconsciously, is building, individually: through personal experience, meditation, premonitions, perceptions, intuitions, non-western spiritual practices, cutting-edge science revelations (the “new physics), and whatever. Carl Jung called it synchronicity. Says the cutting edge of science, all of this came to us through prescientific esoteric tradition.

It’s an amazing thing. As long as we allow it, I’m sorry to say, being systematically marginalized by the authorities, it is a matter of time until, zap! Presto-chango, we’re in the future. The change is inevitable. The bigger they are, the harder they fall. You’ve got no one but yourselves to fall back on, so where are you?

Looking at what the ancients said, the Age of Pisces is fading into the past, the symbol of which is two attached fish swimming in opposite directions. Pisceans are unsure of themselves. They have a hard time making up their minds. The Piscean personality, of being extremely responsive to what the authorities say, unconsciously absorbing what they order, desperately wanting to do the right thing, and lacking in personal willpower, they do what external authority tells them—without question—hoping the best. Hello-o-o!

Please don’t hang up. When I was born, Aquarius was “on the rise.” As time goes on, according to astrologers, I’d become more the image of what I show the world. The symbol of Aquarius is the water-bearer to humanity. Friendship and companionship are very important to Aquarians, but they have temperaments that are determined and stubborn. They are annoyed when people don’t comprehend. They “know.” (And it gets them in trouble at times, I can tell you. Live and learn.) They hate hypocrisy. They are equals among equals. They are independent and futuristic in their thinking. To Aquarians, might makes wrong. They look within for their answers.

Take your choice, Piscean or Aquarian—feeling or mind. Is it live in hope and die in despair? Nope, at midlife, I cut from the herd and went on my own. I was the pioneer out to establish an identity. I became the Aquarian I was meant to be. My life started improving. Now it is as good as life gets. I’ve just explained the inexplicable.

Peace be with you.

May 1, 2010W.Va. Tea Party hopes to sway 1st District raceWest Virginia's Tea Party movement wants a say in which Republican candidate gets the primary nod to challenge for the 1st Congressional District seat now held by Democratic Rep. Alan Mollohan.By Lawrence MessinaThe Associated PressCHARLESTON, W.Va. -- West Virginia's Tea Party movement wants a say in which Republican candidate gets the primary nod to challenge for the 1st Congressional District seat now held by Democratic Rep. Alan Mollohan.That race may be the state's highest-profile contest this year where Tea Party members could prove an influence. The movement has groups scattered around the district that have held candidate forums, rallies and other events. The gatherings have, at times, drawn hundreds of potential voters, along with most, if not all, of the race's six GOP hopefuls.The issues touted by the groups' leaders reflect those embraced by the movement nationally: they denounce passage of federal health-care legislation, oppose the Obama administration's attempt at "cap and trade,'' and decry the surging of the federal budget deficit and debt."We advocate preservation of God and constitution and family values,'' said Sandra Staats, director of the Parkersburg Tea Party.To the movement, the 66-year-old Mollohan is an ideal target. Seeking a 15th term, Mollohan helped pass health-care reform and pursues the sorts of federal earmarks that fiscal hawks denounce. And while he voted against the bill meant to address carbon emissions, opponents argue he entered that fight late and has failed to support West Virginia's coal industry."It's pretty much a uniform feeling among our people that Mollohan has to go,'' said Ryan Kennedy, co-founder of the North Central West Virginia Tea Party.Kennedy said a number of his members have gravitated toward Morgantown developer Andrew "Mac'' Warner and Wood County businessman Tom Stark.Former GOP chairman and state lawmaker Dave McKinley and Sarah Miner, also a former legislator, have their supporters within the group as well, Kennedy said. As a result, the group has not endorsed a single candidate.Kennedy added that his group has endorsed state Sen. Mike Oliverio, Mollohan's challenger in the May 11 Democratic primary. Many of his group's members are Democrats or independents who plan to vote in that open primary, he said, noting a recent radio appearance by Oliverio."He said a lot of things that probably would be very welcome at a Tea Party rally,'' said Kennedy, a Clarksburg lawyer.Staats said most Parkersburg Tea Party members favor Warner. While Stark and fellow Republican Patty Levenson and Cindy Hall have campaigned as outsiders, they have not resonated with members as Warner has, she said.May 1, 2010W.Va. Tea Party hopes to sway 1st District raceWest Virginia's Tea Party movement wants a say in which Republican candidate gets the primary nod to challenge for the 1st Congressional District seat now held by Democratic Rep. Alan Mollohan."We call him the people's choice,'' Staats said. "He doesn't have the money and he's not a politician, and he's running against people who have a lot of money and are politicians.''Warner had raised $165,700 and spent $148,000 of that as of April 21, leaving him with $17,677 three weeks before the primary. But the 55-year-old married father of four has also been beset by the woes of the family's development business, which has been in bankruptcy and at odds with Morgantown officials over its rental-housing holdings.A graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, he has campaigned on his term as an Army officer as well.The race's money leader has been McKinley, who has raised or given his campaign nearly $555,000. He's also racked up endorsements from the Ogden Newspapers chain as well as National Right to Life and its in-state counterpart, among other groups.And with the primary still weeks away, the National Republican Congressional Committee anointed McKinley as its choice months ago. But Staats said her members consider him the sort of career politician they oppose."They think he's pretty much the same as Mollohan,'' she said. "He's not the one who has the backing of the tea parties, at least here in Parkersburg.''McKinley earned howls at a mid-March candidate forum held by the Wheeling-area Tea Party, when he was the only candidate present who would not pledge to read every bill before any votes. While some applauded his explanation, which cited his experience in the Legislature, other candidates earned louder cheers for challenging his response."He got slammed for it,'' Staats said.As perhaps evidence of Tea Party influence, McKinley issued a five-point plan for "congressional reform'' three days after that forum, which included posting each bill online at least 72 hours before a vote.In a statement, McKinley cited Warner's business troubles to question support of his candidacy by Parkersburg Tea Party members. He also called the group "very anti-coal,'' referring to a February forum it held on the mountaintop removal method of mining."I was also pleased to be the only congressional candidate to speak at the Morgantown Tax Day Tea Party event and was greatly encouraged by the response of the crowd,'' McKinley said. "I also attended the Wheeling Tax Day Tea Party and had a great reception as I went through the crowd.''http://wvgazette.com/News/201005010342?page=1&build=cacheAssociated Press deliberately left the part out, where I clearly stated that Parkersburg Tea Party does not endorse candidates.Candidate David McKinley calls us "anticoal" because of one educational seminar. We try to have open minds and listen to all views.Candidate Tom Stark tells the public that the Parkersburg Tea Party has been taken over.Gee, you would think we were running for congress, by all the mud being slung at us!We must be doing something right!

Europe Discards Global-Warming (as B.S.) in Wake of Climate-Gate Scandal at CRU but America’s Media Ignore Story thus CCX Could Bring Obama, Gore, Goldman Sachs Ten$ of Trillion$

A week or so before Thanksgiving last year, the Climate-Gate scandal broke and surrounded the United Kingdoms’ famous East Anglia University and its now infamous Climate Research Unit (CRU) in controversy and notoriety such as Al Gore’s favorite subject, global warming, had never known. The European media took it all in and roughly a week after those thousands of CRU e-mails were aired for all to see, their verdict was in . . . global warming was deemed a hoax. By the twelfth day after the revelations broke, the ever- and oh-so liberal London Times sounded the death knell with their article linked here describing the circumstances of the CRU e-mail leak:

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article6936289.ece

The appropriately named Times Environment-Editor, Jonathan Leake, began his announcement on the upcoming funeral services for Global Warming hype and hypsters this way,

The storm began with just four cryptic words. “A miracle has happened,” announced a contributor to Climate Audit, a website devoted to criticising the science of climate change. “RC” said nothing more — but included a web link that took anyone who clicked on it to another site, Real Climate.

There, on the morning of November 17, they found a treasure trove: a thousand or so emails sent or received by Professor Phil Jones, director of the climatic research unit at the University of East Anglia in Norwich. Jones is a key player in the science of climate change. His department’s databases on global temperature changes and its measurements have been crucial in building the case for global warming.

Amazingly, five months after Europeans discarded the global warming myth, it’s still alive and well right here in the good ol’ USA. In fact Barack Obama has made several efforts to push across “C ‘n T” (Cap and Trade) legislation. Even when it appeared that the global warming band wagon had stalled in the U.S. Senate, Obama exercised a presidential directive to the Environmental Protection Agency which motivated the EPA to immediately issue an agency directive that would have made C ‘n T a de facto part of life here in the United States. However, like so much this president has done, this action was not only hasty and self-serving, it was illegal and UNconstitutional.
The law in question requires the EPA before making environmental regulations must perform its own research. The EPA must then base any regulations it imposes only upon the results of its own studies and not, for example, on the crap they’d been receiving lo’ these many years from East Angla University’s CRU. The EPA regulations requiring massive emissions’ crackdowns were challenged for, in fact, violating the EPA’s own laws and immediately rescinded.

Obama’s ultra-brazenness in all areas (his radical associates will surely accuse Rajjpuut of calling Barack “uppity” now) has been an unpleasant and dangerous surprise. His brazenness on C ‘n T is absolutely a crime, an impeachable conflict of interest . . . based upon Obama’s ties to the Chicago Climate eXchange and his position on the CCX board of directors which one of his cronies admitted in a TV interview could become a “Ten TRillion Dollar” Climate Exchange “industry” (they sell blue sky nothingness so the word “industry” is really an ugly stretch).

Of course in the big picture even among Europeans was that a whole slew of the big players (in this power grab loosely based on false climate info) tried to brass it out by attending a world climate meeting in Copenhagen in December, but their hearts weren’t really in it and nothing was accomplished except wasting a lot of fuel in their private jets. Any “event” where the starring role is played by Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez definitely must be considered a flop. Nevertheless, Chavez received amazingly positive press here in America and Climate-Gate Stories never materialized in the mainstream press. So while Europe has abandoned Cap and Trade ideas and global warming scenarios altogether, American citizens who only get their news from CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC and the liberal press such as the New York Times (“all the important news fit to leave out of the paper”) still believe that global warming is a fact and some of them even think that C ‘n T laws are a great idea. This media refusal to cover the Climate-Gate hoax, thus still allows a strong possibility of making Al Gore, Barack Obama, and about twenty other famous and unknown cronies and several progressive foundations ten$ of TRillion$ of dollar$. Rajjpuut recently covered that scandal with these two blog-stories:

http://rajjpuutsfolly.blogtownhall.com/2010/04/27/bend_over,_america,_here_comes_your_re-raping.thtml

http://rajjpuutsfolly.blogtownhall.com/2010/04/30/obama_c_and_t_corruption_bared_for_all_to_see,_media_ignores.thtml

So, my friends it comes down to this . . . the nature and extent of the potentially greatest conflict of interest scandal in American history involving a lot of rich progressives and a sitting president and a former vice-president (both undeserving winners of the Nobel Peace Prize) is now fully exposed for anyone with a tenth of a brain to connect the dots and right now except for Glen Beck on Fox News, the American media establishment is refusing to investigate it . . . in fact five and a half months after Climate-Gate broke, they’re still refusing to investigate that pivotal story as well . . . just how much confidence does that give you in the integrity of American journalism** today?

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

** As a recipient of his university’s Academic Excellence in Journalism award, and a darn good feature writer in his day, Rajjpuut is appalled by the blatant “support” offered for all things progressive by the mainstream media . . . if Obama is guilty of several impeachable crimes, as Rajjpuut believes . . . then surely the mainstream media are guilty of aiding and abetting for absolutely refusing to vett this president on anything controversial.

An obvious reason why the Left resorts to accusations is because they cannot debate on facts. They lose every time. So many of the Tea Partiers have lived through a few recessions, and have learned that entitlements are the main cause, in one way or another. The Left does not want to hear this, so they attack the truth tellers with name calling. The media has gone so far left, they are complicit in perpetuating the lies.

From a guy in Florida :

My neighbor is a "lefty" of sorts (Obama bumper stickers, gung-ho socialized medicine, "gunsshould be banned", etc.).


So this past spring I put this sign up in my yard after one of his anti-gun rants at a neighborhood cocktail party.

The sign wasn't up more than an hour before he called the police and wanted them to makeme take down the sign.


Fortunately, the officer politely informed him that it was not their job to take such action without a court order and that hehad to file a complaint "downtown" first, which would be reviewed by the cityattorney to see if it violated any city, county, or state ordinances, whichif there was a violation a court order would be sent to the offending party(me) to "remove the sign in seven days."

After several weeks he was informed that the sign was legal (by a quarter of an inch)and there was nothing the city could do, which obviously made himmadder.

I tried to smooth things over by inviting him to go shooting with me and myfriends at the hunt club but that seemed tomake him even more angry.

I am at a loss how to reconcile our long relationship (notice I did not say friendship),any suggestions would be welcome.

Anyway, that's life in our neck of the woods, how about yours?

Anything Worse than Progressive Lawmakers
Making Laws? Yes, Trial Lawyers Making
Laws for Lawmakers to Vote on!

Yesterday a suspected car bomb was found by police in Times Square. Thankfully, no one was hurt. Unfortunately, our nation has been under economic-terrorism for close to a century and most Americans don’t seem to know it or understand it and the media shows no interest in informing the public about it, but rather they make a constant practice of slanting their coverage to “bless” the economic terrorists among our politicians and savage the good names of productive people who believe in the constitution and in the power of free markets. The important thing to realize is this process, this corruption, is NOT just a D.C. phenomenon, but rather part of the progressive social fabric we've been blessed with for quite some time. In a couple paragraphs we will discuss the job-killing house bill 10-1394, whose design will cost thousands of Colorado jobs . . . that is the epitome of what’s being talked about here: economic terrorism. And it’s coming to every state like Colorado where the progressives swept into power because the best friends of the progressive movement after the unions are lawyers and lawmakers.

Since the days of Woodrow Wilson, Americans have been cursed by a progressive onslaught from the left (those looking for government to always step in and solve problems the Constitution says free people need to solve for themselves). Today such progressive ideas as Social Security, Medicare and the Federal side of Medicaid have given all of us $108 TRillion worth of unfunded obligations – a number over eight times larger than the present national debt and eighty times more ominous. Count on the new Obamacare law to add a TRillion dollars a year to that figure despite Obama-math projections that the bill will ease our deficits and slash the national debt. All this money must come from somewhere, whether from the present productive members of society or their productive children and grandchildren. That $108 TRillion came to be our present burden because progressives want their specious laws right now and within the laws to “set aside” the money to pay for the new laws, except, ooopsy-doopsy, they never ever actually set any money aside and that is their mode of operation: promise anything and everything for everybody to get the votes of the masses of the uninformed, but forget to balance the budgets and omit actually paying for anything.

Progressives, by the way, and liberals are the same animal, but “progressive” is a better name, much more accurate because even though it is correct to say that “liberals” are liberal users of OUR money rather than their own . . . it is more informative to realize that progressives believe the U.S. Constitution is just some ancient piece of parchment and that the country truly needs to “progress” beyond the fuddy-duddy out-dated concepts of the founding fathers. As far as the most adamant progressives among them are concerned they, having read “Das Kapital,” surely know a better way and the Constitution be damned. At its roots all progressivism is based upon the ideas that Karl Marx espoused of a Utopian (communist) society where “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs” was the way every person on earth perfected himself and where the state’s job was to look out for the total interests of everyone which, of course dovetail perfectly with the state’s interests. Capitalism, by contrast, is based upon imperfect people looking out for their own interests, rational and otherwise, and rewarding those who do a good job in the free market of satisfying the needs of others and themselves. One of the most evil things the progressives have done is to progressively over time create a climate wherein lawmaking has become a full-time proposition. The only state that presently reflects the spirit of the original founding fathers is Texas whose lawmakers meet for only 140 days every other year. Everywhere else in the country including Colorado and Washington, D.C., the legislative mischief progresses unabated virtually year round every single year.

Today across our nation we are met in a raging war between the two economic systems. At present the socialist precursor to communistic government is winning hands down. One battle in that war is raging in Colorado as we speak. The Progressive-wing of the Democratic party dominates here but unlike the national battlefield, where the Republicans have decided to stand on principle on every vote and the only bi-partisanship to be found is Democrats voting with the G.O.P against the various Obamanations masquerading as “reform” which aim to bring our whole economy under the government’s umbrella . . . however, here in Colorado the Republican Party has capitulated almost entirely to the Progressive Democrats.

Recently, for example, a unanimous voice vote in the Colorado House of Representatives revealed just how stupid our elected officials can be. Remember, that’s unanimous, as in nobody has even the slightest doubt that the law they’re voting for is an absolutely superb idea. The bill concerned insurance and was named HB (house bill) 10-1394. That bill was created by trial lawyers, the only one to prosper from this bill becoming law will be, you guessed it, trial lawyers. Just as Rajjpuut says unequivocally that anything that’s good for the radical Obama administration must be bad for the productive rest of us, let’s also agree that people who make their living fighting in courts are not the people to be making laws for us . . . for every wonderful Erin Brockovich out there (and, remember, she was NOT a trial lawyer just a concerned neutral citizen) there are sixty folks interested in every passing ambulance like a certain ex-trial lawyer who recently ran for vice-president of the United States. Any bill good for trial lawyers must almost certainly be a disaster for the rest of us. In this case the trial lawyers want to control insurance offered to construction companies in Colorado so that it’s almost impossible for anyone suing a construction company or its insurance company to ever lose a case. And to top that off, they want the wicked tentacles of this law to extend backwards into time to affect virtually every house built in Colorado by any current construction firm. Gee whilikers, Batman, you think that might bring out some crazy lawsuits? Clever, even if NOT principled, those trial lawyers . . . clever.

That bill is now in the Colorado State Senate. Meanwhile at least fifteen of the largest national insurance carriers have pulled out of Colorado and will no longer insure the Colorado construction industry, because, among it’s numerous evils, the bill is retro-active to the start of construction on virtually every house in Colorado and on those who built the house and insured the building of the house (the Constitution forbids ex post facto laws, but those clever trial lawyers can do an awful lot of damage and make an awful lot of money and tie up a lot of good people in court for an awful lot of time before the new law is ruled eventually unconstitutional so a lot of money would by necessity have to be set aside* and just sit around in escrow on the mere possibility of such shenanigans). Colorado’s construction industry just had it’s first positive month recently and now this bill, if it becomes law will guarantee that Colorado construction firms cannot buy enough insurance with all the money in the world to protect themselves from the greed of the trial lawyers: one wonders if that will drive up housing costs? Insurance costs? Mortgage costs?

Right is right and wrong is wrong. If defects exist, insurance’s purpose is to cover justifiable claims. Their purpose is not to guarantee that insurors and construction companies must suffer wanton nuisance claims which the trial lawyers have guaranteed cannot be lost ever by any Bozo the clown carrying a brief case. This bill is the death of the construction industry in Colorado and must be repealed. You Flatlanders out there, watch for it, coming soon to a state near you . . . .

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

** When insurance companies "set aside" reserves to cover contingencies, they really do put the money aside . . . in contrast to politicians. The insurance companies are always whipping boys for politicians, but since their average take for health insurance is 3.7%, the politicians' logic, as almost always, is greatly flawed.

Since Arizona's just illegal immigrationlaw states in large part what federal law already states, why arepro-illegal groups and persons not protesting out in front of the WhiteHouse and threatening D.C. with silly boycotts?

Since 1986,federal law (Title 8 US Code, 1304 & 1324)has held that: it is acrime for aliens to refuse to register and be fingerprinted;

aliens 18 years and older must carry an alien registration card or proof of registration;

employers are prohibited from hiring illegal aliens;

employersmust verify identify and eligibility of all new hires through thepresentation of specified documents - if they do not have the correctdocuments that cannot be employed.

News reports on Arizona's newlaw love to mis-use the word "now" when telling listeners/readers thatimmigrants must "now" carry documents to prove their legal status inArizona.

This has been the case since 1986 throughout the wholecountry, thus the word "now" is used to inflame the controversy andoverstate the significance of the new law.

But that's expected,many reporting the news, like Katie Couric, have never really proventhemselves to be professional newspersons.

obama hasn'tinvalidated these laws so shouldn't he be included in the criticismfrom those who favor illegals making themselves at home?

Similarly,obama's Homeland Security chief, Janet Napolitano, as democrat governorof Arizona in 2007 signed the Legal Arizona Workers Act which gavecourts the right to revoke the business license of any business thatemploys illegals...why are they not protesting Janet?

Now thatshe is in obama's government however, Janet is questioning theconstitutionality of the current illegal immigration law signed by thecurrent republican governor.

That's being sort of Kerry-esque: "I was actually tough on immigration before I was weak on it."

In2007 there were at least 35 local ordinances passed along the samelines as the Arizona law, so Arizona's law is not nearly as historicaland earth shattering as CNN would leave you to believe, yet it isgetting played as such.

Some twit with a crayon included aneditorial cartoon in USA Today on Thursday which showed a sheriffconfronting a group of people holding the constitution and demanding tosee their "papers."

This has been ok under federal law since 1986, has he used this cartoon before? Probably not.

Federallaw illegal immigration law since 1986 has not been carried out -enforced, there in lies the source of today;s discontent.

Aphoto caption in April 28 edition of USA Today said that demonstratorsin Illinois were recently arrested as they attempted to interfere withthe scheduled transportation of immigrants ordered to be deported.

They are protesting the carrying out of the law...incredible.

These people ought to be put on hold when they next call 911.

Anotherphoto caption showed protesters of Arizona's law in NY City anddescribed these twits as "supporters of illegal immigrants..."

Supporting illegal activity?

What other laws would you like us to ignore?

Can I choose one?

Wow.

Hi everyone, today we added over 300 new members who will be joining in on the fun. I am so glad We The People have found a place to social network. Tea Party/TeaParty.org is in your face, having a strong platform and demands the free market place of ideas. With that, we must be careful not to let racists in. So please keep an eye out for me and everyone else in this social network community.

Remember, many of our members havn't yet created their own page on this membership site. One of our Coalition Partners has over 15,000 members and share their database with us. Another has over 60,000 members and we have the same arrangement. Many of those havn't yet discovered this kool site.

So our upside growth potiential is gaint!

Fight On!

Thx. Steve

Now that the Democratic Party is back in power, it's beginning to feel like the 1960's all over again. Depending on which side of the fence you resided at the time, free love or responsibility, there is one outcome worth noting -- it turned the tide on respect.

HOW TRUE

There was red phone and three former leaders asked what the phone is for. The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth.
Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes. He was informed that the call cost is a million dollars.
Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she is finished she was informed her call cost is 6 million dollars.
Finally George Bush gets his turn and talks for 4 hours. When he finished the devil informs him that the cost is $5.00.
Putin and the Queen hear this and go ballistic. They asked the devil why Bush got to call the USA so cheaply?
The devil smiles and replies: "Since Obama took over, the country has gone to hell, so it's a local call."
