‘Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not YET sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favour; a long habit of not thinking a thing WRONG, gives it a superficial appearance of being RIGHT, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom.’ If one should step back and take an objective look at the 2012 presidential election, it would seem rather | Read More »
The Cato Institute did a recent policy analysis titled, Libertarian Roots of the Tea Party, that states “the tea party has strong libertarian roots and is a functionally libertarian influence on the Republican Party.” The Cato Institute is a libertarian think tank in Washington, D.C. that was originally founded as the Charles Koch Foundation in 1974.

Having grown weary of the never ending attacks and accusations that I am but a ‘tool’ of Rep. Sandy Adams’ campaign each time I focus on Rep. John Mica, I will share my thoughts on the matter. The one issue that his hired ‘attack dogs’ and other misguided supporters continually fall back on is that the Adams campaign advertises on my web site. That is | Read More »
Gallup just released Barack Obama’s job approval rating for the first half of 2012 and the news is not encouraging. His approval rating is below 50% in 37 states, ranging from a 26% rating in Utah to a 49% rating in Michigan. But Obama rules in Washington, D.C. – literally and figuratively – where he enjoys his highest job approval rating at an astonishing 83%. | Read More »
Let’s be clear, Rep. John Mica DID NOT not say Majority Leader Eric Cantor has “failed us”. HOWEVER, in an ad targeting his opponent in the contentious CD7 Republican primary, freshman Congresswoman Sandy Adams, Mica outlines 6 votes on budget and spending bills that she voted against. “Sandy Adams talks about reducing the deficit. Given the chance, she failed us,” a narrator in the commercial | Read More »
FactCheck.org did an analysis of a campaign mailer sent out by 20-year incumbent Rep. John Mica targeting his opponent in the August 14th primary, freshman Congresswoman Sandy Adams. The verdict? “Misleading.” In the campaign mailer, Mica claims that Adams was someone President Obama “counted on” to “approve” stimulus spending. Not really. Sandy Adams, is a freshman who arrived in Washington nearly two years after the | Read More »
I apologize beforehand for any lack of clarity in my comments. I am currently wrapping my head with duct tape with one hand to keep it from exploding, as I type with the other hand. As I now openly support freshman Congresswoman Sandy Adams, I realize any criticism directed toward her primary opponent, 20 year incumbent Rep. John Mica, will be taken with a grain | Read More »
Interestingly, 20-yr incumbent Rep. John Mica’s campaign tag line directed at his primary opponent, freshman Congresswoman Sandy Adams, is ‘Rhetoric, not Results‘. A suggestion that, with his many years in Washington, D.C., he is in better position to generate results for CD7 voters. At the same time, his most recent jab at Adams makes the following claims; Voted to Spend Barack Obama’s Stimulus Requested over | Read More »
With the local Tea Party movement having announced Friday it’s backing of Rep. Sandy Adams in her CD7 primary battle with 20 year incumbent Rep. John Mica, it seemed to be as good a time as any to publicly commit in this race. Much to chagrin of the Mica campaign, and with some degree of satisfaction, I’d guess, based on a seemingly ever present need | Read More »
Having come across an article that really stands out in all the din of messaging we see these days, I feel compelled to share it with you for what it’s worth.
