As I have been saying from day one of the Middle East Protests, we, America, must be very careful who we put our forces behind and who we support both from the public podium as well as behind the scenes. For decades our federal government has been shoveling American taxpayer dollars into ridiculous projects and programs in foreign lands that ultimately provide artillery and arsenals for terrorist organizations and corrupt regimes; causing us to lose face in the eyes of the world leaders as we appear hypocritical, ignorant, and weak. At our expense, it was quite comical to see and hear our leaders speaking publicly about the ME protests. Obama would either hesitate or carry on his Tango of words while Hillary ignorantly thrusts American support behind a group of protesters which she obviously has not taken the time to study or become familiar with, resulting in America backing in various cases, the Muslim Brotherhood, al Qaeda, and Hamas. Then Biden s...

Looming threats of a government shutdown permeate the air as conservatives, well some conservatives, are fighting for fiscal restraint. Liberals are calling for rapid passage of legislation plumped with more spending. Or is it really just the liberals who are drunk on spending the taxpayer’s dollar? Consider for a moment what conservative spending looks like. Under W. Bush funds were allocated for Cultural Preservation around the world. Those same funds are still in existence today.

What exactly do cultural preservation funds pay for? You remember the attacks on 9/11? Also recall the Christmas Day Bomber, the Time Square Bomber, and numerous other attacks globally as well as those attacks, or attempted attacks the government doesn’t want you to know about. What do they all have in common? Terms like Islam, Muslim, mosque, qur’an, holy war, Jihad, Imam, bin Laden, al Qaeda, Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR, Holy Land Foundation, ISNA, ICNA, allahu akbar...

Anjem Choudry and his radical Islamic followers are preparing to protest on the White House lawn on March 3, 2011 in hopes of building up Islam in America because he truly believes that Americans will be open to it after all of the corruption seen in our land.

Daily Mail Reporter

British extremist Anjem Choudary - who once said 'the flag of Islam will fly over the White House' - has announced he will lead a demonstration calling on Muslims to establish the Sharia law across America.

The rally, planned for March 3, is to take place just weeks after his on-screen row with Fox News presenter Sean Hannity.

Mr Choudary, 43, called Americans 'the biggest criminals in the world today.'

The former leader of outlawed group Islam4UK told the Daily Star 'we expect thousands to come...

A major exposure of the deception of the Muslim Brotherhood and several other terrorist groups took place this week at the CPAC conference. Certainly much to the chagrin of Suhail Khan, ALL of the details can be viewed at the specially created website Suhail Khan Exposed. Tom Trento and two other fearless, patriotic men entered Khan’s classroom lesson on Conservative Inclusion with video camera in hand and what they uncovered (video) is not only astounding but representative of where many of our leaders stand.

Let it be known, contrary to Kahn’s statement, “…there is no Muslim Brotherhood in the United Sates…” the Muslim Brotherhood does exist in the U.S. and across the globe. Take a look at this enlightening power point presentation provided by Tom Trento, Florida Security Council: [Read More]

There is a push for blocking the legalization of alcohol sales on Sundays by the Georgia Conservatives in Action group. While I am a conservative and a Christian as well as a non-drinker, I do not feel that this push is appropriate nor is it good for ALL people. Legislation such as this should be awarded substantial thought and vision into the future. One may contemplate my reasoning behind supporting alcohol sales on a Sunday.

Take into consideration the overreaching arms of the government presently. Also consider the House and Senate structure that was just remodeled after recent elections. Democrat control largely permeated the hallways of both. Only by minimal number of votes did the House get reorganized, certainly not anything to get overwhelmingly excited about. The larger issue at hand is not who is presently in control, nor is it the sale of alcohol on Su...

Terrorism persists on forcing a presence globally and in America despite major efforts to “smoke em’ out.” Bush (2001) One of the most powerfully undetected terrorist organizations in the world is the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) or in Arabic, Jamaat al-Ikhwan al-Muslimun, founded in 1928 by Hassan al Banna in Cairo, Egypt. While the MB has experienced some difficulties in maintaining stability, its growing pains have only strengthened it. M.B.’s tentacles stretch across the globe bridging many terrorist organizations and front groups in over 80 countries, providing various types of support. It must be clear that the main driving force behind the MB and any Islamic terrorist organization is in fact, Islam. According to the law book of Islam:

Qur’an. But when the forbidden months are past, then fight (kill) and slay those Pagans wherever you find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them with every kind of ambush (in every stratag...

To defeat the present enemy of the state as well as the entire world, an understanding of the enemy must precede the strategy. One must study their strategic warfare plans and become familiar enough with them to accurately predict a majority of their moves. Previous rules of engagement and strategy may not fit the mold of the current threat to effectively curtail their efforts or to protect America and her assets. As an innovator whose dreamlike music broke all the rules, Claude Debussy is noted for saying, "Works of art make rules; rules do not make works of art." Three key points can be drawn from Debussy’s statement that will enable an effective warfare strategy: art is defined as it is created; art is created by utilizing all the senses and being in tune with ones surroundings; and innovative instruments not previously used are entertained.

Taking into consideration the historical premise of terrorism, it is duly noted that terrorism, like art, follows ...

I attended the funeral service of a fallen hero yesterday. At times I wonder if patriotism has diminished in America. I remember as a child the feelings that welled up within me when I would see the American Flag waving freely atop the breezes of American winds. Or, upon hearing the fuzzy sounds of brave astronauts communicating from space with Houston, yes even on that fateful day of the Challenger. In fact more so on that day. On that day, while sitting in Mrs. Corbitt's class in elementary school, there was no question in my young mind what greatness was. For greatness was found in men and women like those astronauts. Greatness is found in brave and courageous Americans who are willing to give their all for the furthering of America. With no doubt in my mind do fine men and women such as these not even think twice about the potential loss of their own life. I also recall standing in the bleachers at a pep rally in junior high school. Next to me were some of my best ...

Dear Rep. McCotter, 31May2010 WOW,

I am so disappointed and disheartened. I believe I may need a ShamWOW to soak up all the tears from my broken heart as I read through my Champions of Freedom booklet. Try as I might to wring out the soaked ShamWOW, there are just too many tears flowing, as I think of all the students and people that I handed your Champions of Freedom to; Excited that "we" had someone in office who understood what "NO" meant. Just so you know that I did my research after the Chatham County Awards Banquet, which is where I met you. I was cautiously excited to see a conservative willing to stand against the out-of-control spending. ShammedWOW. “Irate Republican congressman rips Democrats over...

While I will be one of the first ones to say that I am against misappropriated funds or misuse of tax payer dollars, I am also a person who likes to provide the facts and the truth. If I am wrong I will retract my incorrect statements and provide factual statements to clear any misleading statements up. Recently Cong. Jack Kingston held an open Town Hall meeting at AASU. A question was presented about elected officials' salary, pension, and benefits. There is also an email going around explaining what the elected officials receive for their pension and benefits or what laws they are exempt from. I inquired as to the validity of these issues and following is the first portion of the response:

"Congressional retirement accumulates @ 1.7% of salary times # years served. Members must serve 5 years minimum to participate. So, if you serve for 5 years when you turn 65 you get $14,790/yr. (.017 X $174,000 (current salary) X 5 (years)=$14,790.
