Remember us? The “baby boomers,” “Senior Citizens,” “Dinosaurs,” “Old Geezers,” and “Over the Hill gang.” Guess What? We’re baaaaack. Remember 2010? We delivered the House and almost the Senate. Well, what we started in 2010 we intend to finish in 2012. Democrats make the mistake of believing all we care about is our Social Security checks, so we know what to expect. Guess what liberals? | Read More »
Beginning with our founding in 1776, and continuing to this day, America has faced numerous crises. At each of these times an individual has stepped forward to lead the resistance and preserve our cherished liberty and freedom. Without these special, though flawed, patriotic warriors who stepped forward in time of crises, America today would likely still be a British colony with no Declaration of Independence, | Read More »
The seeds of revolution are planted and watered by government tyranny. It is the inherent nature of government to grow and assume more and more power. This is not new but has existed from the beginning. The limit of government power is determined by what the people are willing to tolerate. People, especially the people who founded this nation correctly understood that the rights of | Read More »

It has been my privilege to live under 12 presidents. Because they were all human, they all had faults. Even Ronald Reagan, who I consider to be one of the best presidents of my lifetime, had his own shortcomings. To expect a man or woman to be perfect in any area is to expect the impossible. It is equally impossible to believe that a president | Read More »
In 1775 there were three types of colonist; Patriots, Tories, and the indifferent. Each category represented approximately one-third of the population. The Tories were those who support King George III and British rule of the colonies. They were comprised primarily of government officials and those who supported them. During the war for independence they either returned to England or sided with the British against the | Read More »
December 22, 2010 Tennessee is a great state which has sent some outstanding statesmen to Washington. Unfortunately, the two of you are not among them. You have proven yourself to have the spine of a jelly fish, the mouth of an alligator, and the brain of a mocking bird. However, mistakes can be rectified and in 2012 and 2014 “We the People” will rectify our | Read More »

The new colony was given the name of Jamestown. The three ships which had crossed an ocean to bring these first settlers were | Read More »
You clowns still don’t get it! Obama is the best thing that has happened to America in many years. He has shown us the face of evil and of socialism. He has drawn our attention to what is going on in Washington, and We the People have had all we are going to take. We are going to take back our country, and guess what? | Read More »
They like to refer to us as senior citizens, old fogies, geezers, and in some cases dinosaurs. Some of us are “baby boomer” getting ready to retire. Others have been retired for some time. We walk a little slower these days and our eyes and hearing are not what they once were. We have worked hard, raised our children, worshipped our God and grown old | Read More »
Two hundred twenty-three years ago, on September 17, 1787, the Constitution of the United States of America became the supreme law of our land. It was one of the most unique documents ever penned by the hands of men. It established a government “Of the people, by the people and for the people,” with “equal justice for all.” The first three words of this great | Read More »
It is an indisputable fact that when all light is removed only darkness remains. It is equally indisputable that when all good is removed only evil remains. The land of the free and home of the brave is now in serious jeopardy of ceasing to be a beacon of freedom for the world and descending forever into a land of darkness. In addition, the Gospel | Read More »
I stand before you this morning as a 70 year old man with emphysema. 50 years ago I was serving in the U. S, Navy. Thirty years ago I was an area campaign manager for Ronald Reagan. Two years ago, if you asked me, “What are you doing?” my answer would have been “As little as possible.” It has been my privilege to live during | Read More »

From 1781 until 1789 the thirteen colonies were governed by the “Articles of Confederation,” which soon proved to be insufficient for governing the young nation. As a result a constitutional convention was convened in 1787 at the same location where the Declaration of Independence had been signed 11 years earlier. For four months, 55 delegates from the several states met to frame a Constitution for | Read More »
The answer is an emphatic No!. Why? Because America is not a place on a map. America is an ideal which lives in the heart of every human being. It is that longing to live free in a land of freedom, that has attracted men and women to these shores for over four hundred years. It was on April 27 1607, that three small ships | Read More »

It was the pursuit of a dream. A dream of living free in a land of freedom.

The freedom they held so dear was slowly being taken away and there was | Read More »
Today we stand in the shoes of our founding fathers. The winds blowing from Washington smell of evil, corruption, and tyranny. We, like them, are faced with a government seeking to take away our cherished freedoms and God given rights. We, like them, have no representation in the halls of government. The hallowed halls of congress, once walked by statesmen dedicated to serving the interest | Read More »
