September 17, 2011 – US Day of Rage - shutting down Wall Street and banks - be prepared

September 17, 2011 – US Day of Rage



This has been billed as a “non violent” (day of RAGE????) takeover of Wall Street and disruption of banks, the stock market and capitalism. It is real. Do an internet search on US Day of Rage. Look up the involvement of Wade Rathke (founder of ACORN) and Stephen Lerner (affiliated with SEIU). I would recommend you educate yourself about this project and understand those who feel capitalism should be… Continue

Is the Florida Senate really caving on Immigration Reform?

It was reported today on a web site called Shark Tank (http://shark-tank.net/2011/04/05/13246/) in an article titled “FL Senate Caves on Immigration Bill” that the enforcement oriented Senate Bill 2040, “Unauthorized Immigrants”, has been stripped of effective enforcement provisions such as requiring E-Verify. Please take a moment and read the article. If it is true, this is very disturbing. Florida needs a strong immigration law. I request that you contact members of the Judiciary Committee,… Continue

Take action now: Contact FL Attorney General Bill McCollum and your FL representatives in support of the suit against the federal health care bill

Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum has filed suit declaring the recently passed federal health care legislation unconstitutional. As badly as we need health care reform, this liberal leftist bill saddled us with costs we can't afford and more government control of our lives. Consider that Social Security is operating at a loss, meaning that anyone on Social Security is about to have their benefits cut, and you have a glimpse of what to expect under government health care. The dependent… Continue

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.
