Johnny Isakson Has at Least One Challenger

A former Marine Pilot has decided to do what Johnny Isakson refuses to: uphold the Constitution in Congress and fight for our freedom on the grounds of Capitol Hill just as hard as he fought for our freedom in the skies when he served in the Marine Corps during the Reagan administration.

In a quote on his website, Chuck Donovan says “As a Marine Corps officer, I learned that one must lead from the front. The Democratic and Republican party leadership have refused to make the difficult, unpopular decisions necessary to correct the problems they themselves have brought upon our great country. They have led us into a very dangerous and unprecedented situation from which there is no painless way out. Still, they only respond with more government.”

Donovan also said “Because the Republicans and Democrats have consistently delivered bigger government, more complex taxation, deeper debt and more egregious violations of our Bill of Rights, I believe the Libertarian Party is the only hope to restore our Constitution, our economy, and our rights.” in an email message to the Libertarian Party of Southwest Georgia.

With a campaign slogan of “My mission is Freedom. My time is now.”, I look forward to hearing more from Mr. Donovan in the coming months!

Employee Free Choice Act: A Death to Business?

Yesterday, Senator Isakson came to town and touched on the Employee Free Choice Act, and how it would be bad for business and the economy, which means it would ultimately be bad for employees too. Of course, I’m sure President Obama disagrees, since he was originally a co-sponsor of the bill. As much as I find this distasteful, I have to agree with Senator Isakson and don’t agree with him.

Attendance sheets signed by more than 480 attenees will also be presented. Many individuals declined to sign due to fear of Government retrobution.

Senator Isakson will be ask to return the proceeds to congress, with a demand that they begin to listen to the wishes of the people.

Note: Due to Government regulations and fears of WMD, only the Tea tags will be use.

Albany Tea Party Speech: Bill Waller

On December 16, 1773, a group of colonists in Boston staged a protest against the British crown. The colonists wanted Boston to return three ships of taxed tea to the king. The colonists, dressed as Indians, boarded the ships and tossed the tea into the Boston Harbor. It is in that spirit that we gather here today!

If you have ever seen the movie “National Treasure” you know that the characters in the movie examine the Constitution for clues to a treasure. While I do not know if such a treasure exists, I do know that there is a clue hidden in the Constitution. The founding fathers put it there for occasions such as this. They didn’t really make a big effort to hide it either. Instead, they made the letters far bigger than the rest of the text of the document. WE THE PEOPLE…

You see, the government gets its power from us, not the other way around, and when we have allowed the government to get so big that our representatives do not represent us, it is time that we take it back.

It has long been said that the majority of people in America live conservative values. We go about our lives in an independent fashion and we are slow to complain or speak out. But the silent majority will be silent no more!
