Recommended start for a message to send to all of our Congressmen and women to stop the spending: Dear Congressman/Senator, Please note: 1. Vote No on the Continuing Resolution 2. Vote No on the Infrastructure Package 3. Vote No on the 3.5 Trillion spending package 4. Vote No on increasing the debt ceiling. I know this means shutting down the government. Well, after shutting us down for over 18 months, turn about is fair play.

Thank you all for all that you are doing Could you please do one more thing and read the following proposal? I originally researched it and wrote it back in 2009. Our Constitution has already been corrupted to the point where we will need to sustain the type of activities in which you and so many others are valiantly engaged. What it looks like to me is that many of our conservative leaders (not you, or any of the grassroots members/leaders, by the way) are having more fun playing the game and so enjoy having such a broad and robust...

Europeans and liberals of all stripes believe there is proof that the “soft socialism” of Europe works and that the USA should follow its lead. Is the temptation of government candy in the form of free health care, free education, guaranteed good-paying jobs, free/cheap housing, etc. really a free lunch? Or, is it bait for a trap? What they do not see or grasp is that both Europe and China have been subsidized by American taxpayers for decades. If they succeed in conquering the free enterprise system in the U.S., the subsidies will disappear. Following are some of the ways...

Here is my latest email to President Trump: Dear Mr. President, It's time to start declassifying. Start slowly and accelerate every day until they all cry "Uncle". . .Uncle Sam, that is ;) Please email him with your support.

I tried to contact John Cornyn regarding his participation in the American Business Immigration Coalition meeting today, while he has refused to step up in defense of President Trump. After filling in the required fields, my contact information was not accepted. I received an error: "Request not accepted. Security Risk detected." So, as a registered voter, with no criminal background, I am prohibited from contacting my senator. What's up with this? Are any other Texans who subscribe to true conservative principles receiving the same error? Or is my sharing of Stephen Bannon's War Room and other posts to facebook prohibiting...

Please note 2 of the links in the body of this text no longer work. There should still be enough information for you to do additional research to verify or contradict. Following is the original text from my blog post of December, 2, 2012: In the Presidential election of 2012, I experienced the longest lines at early voting that I have ever seen. I read articles from different parts of the country reporting the same phenomenon. On election day there were excessive lines with many polling places required to stay open hours longer than normal to accommodate all of the...

I just did a quick search on the term "doublethink" and it turns out that, for some surprising reason, George Orwell's "1984" is a best seller again. I seem to recall that in the book, it said that the purpose of doublethink was that if a person held two conflicting thoughts or beliefs, that it rendered the person unable to make a decision or take an action on that topic because of the simultaneous contradicting information. It was purposeful to keep the population mentally docile and to prevent rebellion. Yet, when I looked up the term and read several articles...

URGENT ACTION NEEDED! December 28, 2018 Dangerous Orwellian Data Mining Bill On President’s Desk Our 4th Amendment right to privacy is at stake. Despite public opposition, the Senate rammed through Foundations for Evidence-Based Policy Making Act (H.R. 4174) during the lame duck session. This bill is a de facto national database on every citizen. H.R. 4174 was originally drafted by Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) and rammed through the house on a voice vote. Knowing the massive public opposition, the Senate has quietly sat on the bill for a year until after the election and then rammed it through on a...

Hello Freepers, Another request for prayers for my daughter Katie. Her cancer has resurfaced for the 3rd time. This time while it has spread further afield, the lesions are much smaller and very slow growing. She just had a biopsy done yesterday and I'm asking for prayers that it turns out benign. She has had a mighty struggle but has remained strong, positive and resilient. Thank you so much and God Bless, Best always, Gail S.

I just received an email from Donna Brazille. I replied as follows: Dear Ms. Brazille, Thank you for your New Year wishes. But, I just finished rearing 3 children on my own, without government assistance. I made tremendous sacrifices to do that without government support while the education system was demonizing me and destroying my family. My relationship with my liberal daughter will never be restored. She is a citizen of the state, not my daughter. You stole her from me and broke my heart. But you will never break my spirit. What does the Democrat party have to offer...

Please Pray for my Daughter Katie

If I had any lingering doubts about Donald Trump being the best possible candidate for President, he erased them with his announcement of Mike Pence as his preferred VP. It is not about Mike Pence, although he is a great selection. Go to 13:40 in his announcement speech. At that point in the speech, Mr. Trump explains the "Johnson Amendment". This was an amendment to the US Tax code in 1954 proposed by Senator Lyndon B. Johnson and eventually passed that prohibited Pastors, Ministers and Priests from addressing political issues in their sermons on the penalty of losing their tax...
