Appreciating my liberty

 

As the dogs and I walked out to get the paper in the early morning hours of Veterans Day, I saw the full moon glowing in the purple sky and thanked God for a morning such as this.

 

The air was cool and I shivered as I watched our two dogs roll on the dew-covered grass enjoying the…

Allred and Cain

To all our lady friends with the First Coast Tea Party:  Gloria Allred will stand with another woman today who is accusing Cain of sexual harassment.

 

I am taking comments as to 1) do you believe this will hurt him; 2) do you believe the accusations and 3) what do you think about Gloria Allred jumping into this?



Would love to hear your comments. I'll give you mine after I hear from you. Here's the scoop:…

A little laugh this Friday morning

When something comes along to make us laugh, it seems almost out of place in our world of "fighting tyranny."  All good souls need to release the pent up frustration Congress and our President give us on a daily basis.

 

When this video was posted, we laughed until we cried.  We hope you do too.

 

Enjoy your weekend and make sure to come to our Rally to the Right this…

America and Daniel, the beagle

The story of a beagle that survived the gas chamber appeared on the Drudge Report.  Our family has many beagles on our “dog family tree” and our son presently has two, Minnie and Madison.  We spent Halloween with our grandchildren and our grand dogs.  One beagle was dressed up like a banana and the other had a man on a saddle sitting on her back.  As we walked the neighborhood with our granddaughters as cute…

Lessons Learned from The Great Pumpkin

When I was young, the Peanuts comic strip was my favorite and when The Great Pumpkin came on, I hurried to get my bath, put on my PJs, and I would watch it with my sister and brother while eating popcorn and hot chocolate. When my children were born, I loved to watch the Peanuts movies with them in their PJs, eating popcorn and drinking hot chocolate.  We would always talk about life’s lessons learned from the show.  Now my grandchildren are enjoying the…

If you only had 12 hours to live: Good job, Stephen

 

Many of you might have heard that Stephen Butters, the Office Manager for the local GOP headquarters, passed away in his sleep last night.  He was only 29 years old.

 

Stephen was a kind and gentle man who wanted to serve others.  He hated conflict (even though he was in politics) and he…

Loving America

I had a friend who was in the Event Planning business.  He helped me plan a big event for the “grand opening” of my consulting practice ten years ago this month.  He was a perfectionist and was well known in the event planning world nationwide.  He is a master at planning a party.

 

When the night came for our “grand opening” at a local club, he showed up after the other invitees were already enjoying the party.  I…

4:00 AM Awakenings: They're back!

When the Tea Party Movement stirred inside me in 2009 at the same time it was stirring inside millions of others across this nation, early morning risings became commonplace.  A full night’s sleep was impossible to find and 4:00 a.m. awakenings with thoughts of troubling times in my country filled my head.  Much like a mother who would feed her baby at 4:00 feedings, I would feed my mind with research to find out the truth about the problems in our…

I'll keep my Republic, thank you

The headlines got to me again today.  The call out for Democracy seems to be the buzz word of the year.  

I remember watching the Egyptian Arab Spring unfold and tried to understand what was really going on.  The Mainstream Media and the White House supported it and used the words “democracy” for all.  They helped the people in the street become “free” from the hands of their leader, Mubarak.  This was supposed to be a good…

Favoritism: Will you be one of the chosen?

In June of this year, our outgoing Mayor was pushing through a special deal for Everbank.  The local tea party did not think it was right to use taxpayer dollars to move a bank from the south side of town to downtown at a cost of $2.75 million in incentives.  



In June, Ron Littlepage, a Commentary for the Florida Times Union, made a statement “Those who were urging the council to…

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
