I was invited to speak recently at the regular meeting of SURG (Sumner United for Responsible Government). Also on the agenda that night was Tami Kilmarx and Candidate Dave Evans, running for Congress in Tennessee's 6th District. My talk was on something near and dear to my Heart!

Well the Healthscare Bill passed and it has not even been 1 month and the repercussions are all ready happening.

Within days of passage, several large companies reported that they have to record charges as a direct result of the Healthscare bill. Verizon Corp., is the latest to report that changes to income tax deductions will cause them to charge off $970 million dollars. This is after John Deere & Co. will record charge...

I am feeling like Alice, of Alice in Wonderland; things are not right with this Nation and our rulers have gone amok. Wait this is America we have no rulers, we are free, we have a constitution! Our Government cannot tell us what to do or what to buy, or what to eat. They can’t tell us what kind of light bulbs must be installed in our homes or how much water we can use or whether we can go fishing in our lakes, strea...

The Bill has been referred to Committee. Is this the plan that they will implement when Obama care fails?? Is this a back up plan? Why did LAMAR Co-Sponsor a Bill that REQUIRES you to purchase insurance? That states specifically : Sets forth penalties for failure to enroll? WE need to Flood his office with Calls - Letters - and Faxes.

These pictures are from my backdoor. This is our 5th Snow storm of the season. Very unusual for the South. Does anything about this picture conjure up warmth? It doesn't for me either. I have never fallen for the fact that man or anything other than the natual cycle of weather can cause global warming or cooling.

According to an article today in the Tulsa Today, Climate Gate may be caused by an absent minded professor....

The U. S. Jobless rate came out yesterday (February 5, 2010) and the rate for January had fallen from 10.0 to 9.7 percent. BO was all over the news, talking about how wonderful it all is and how much better the economy was getting. He is either misinformed, or lying or just giving a single side of the story. The news was not as great as was espoused. Although the rate was down, the number of unemployed was actually...

The Constitution calls for this count every 10 years in order to determine not only our population but to redistrict boundaries for the 438 electoral votes. This is supposed to give equal representation for the people. There is a question about the number of Representatives that are required by the Constitution per Section 2 article 3, are we entitled to 1 Representative for every 30,000 citize...

Merry Christmas and good morning!

It is very early this morning. Baby Girl and I got up early, while I made Coffee she climbed on the sofa for a little more sleep. Our house is not decorated, there is not a Christmas ball or garland, but there is a scattering of dog toys and bones. I still love CHRISTmas but without babes around it seems like a lot of trouble to drag out the decorati...

Dear Mr. Gordon,

I want to thank you for holding the town halls during the August recess. Although they were limited, at least you made an effort. I was only able to attend a phone-in meeting, but it was enough to reaffirm that the majority of Citizens in this district feel the same way I do. Very plainly, Mr. Gordon, it was obvious Tennesseans do not want any form of governmen...

What’s in a Name

There have been so any names changes in the works lately. BO wants to change the name of “global warming” to “climate changes”, in order to get more people on board with his cap and trade plan. Wonder why he does not call it BIG TAX increase? That is what it is! The Republicans are going on the road to listen to regular members and want to call it the “listening” tour...

What the Heck??

Is the GRAND OLE PARTY becoming the GRANDIOSE OLE POLITICIANS? Is the GOP becoming the Big Government and Big Spending, Constitutional forgetting, party that we are fighting so hard to rein in?

Have they completely given up the principals of the Party, which conservatives hold dear? You bet they have, some of them anyway. I always admire ...
