Hi there guys and thank you for reading my blog! Life is crazy busy right!? We often get so busy we forget to look up and look around. As a Christ follower, wife, momma of three, and small business owner life is already moving too fast! A moment in my life that caused me to STOP, SLOW DOWN and LOOK UP, was when my dad ran for congress years ago. It was then I realized I had to start speaking up and speaking out about what happens in the world of politics, current events and culture...... and of course throw in a little satire when needed! ;) “Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.” ― Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Why I am Conservative

~ Conservative Momma ~ 9 Comments

All too often I get asked “Why are you a Conservative?” I think it is essential for Conservatives to be able to answer this question in an understandable way. In short, I am a Conservative because Conservatism goes to the root of the problem, instead of trying to patch up the problem. If you patch up a problem, it’ll keep happening. I want to solve the problems.

For the sake of time, I condensed my numerous reasons on why I am Conservative into my top five.

  1. I think the Government is efficient and effective at running very little.  The primary role of Government is to Defend Americans, to Promote General Welfare (not provide) and to secure the blessings of liberty. The government today has become grossly enlarged and what they try to fix they end up ruining. How can we expected a bunch of bureaucrats, career politicians, and political insiders to have any clue how to solve the problems they create? The Government doesn’t create jobs, the government provides employment funded by the tax payer. A couple of my siblings are employees of the Federal Government and who in their right mind would bite the hand that feeds them? Very few! A sweet pension in the future, and a job that is 9-5 with little over time….sign me up! In reality though, this set up is provided by money we don’t have. We are deeply in debt as a country.

Also, what government ran agencies are solving the problems we face right now?

The Department of Veteran Affairs?  Many Veterans are not getting the care they need and their needs should be top priority! The Department of Education? Since the Department of Education formed, The U.S. has dropped dramatically in test score and where we rank internationally. The government declared a war on poverty back in 1964….how is that working for us? We have over 45 million Americans living in poverty!

2. I am also Conservative because I am Pro-Life. Life in the womb IS LIFE, because SCIENCE SAYS IT’S LIFE. According the the 14th Amendment government has no right to take life! Roe vs. Wade is actually unconstitutional and should be overturned.

I also support pro life Conservative legislatures. If I wasn’t PRO-LIFE, it wouldn’t matter who I vote for. For example -Obama, while he was in the Senate, voted to not save a baby that survives an abortion. I support legislatures that take steps to END abortion not advance it! These legislatures are my VOICE. My voice is my vote in who I vote for.

3. I believe that the 2nd Amendment is not a gift from our government. The Second Amendment is my right as an American Citizen. It is my choice to choose how I defend myself.

4. I believe in Fiscal Conservatism. We are 20 trillion in debt, yet we keep spending money we DON’T HAVE! This is asinine! We literally have billions of dollars being wasted each year. For example- millions were spent studying the drinking habits of fraternities, and tax payer dollars were also spent studying hamsters on steroids…yes, this happened last year! Stop the WASTE, Stop the SPENDING! It is totally and completely irresponsible to continue this spending and pass this debt onto our children!

5. Less Regulation and Less Taxes! Overbearing Regulation in short, shuts down businesses. Rules and restrictions stifle the entrepreneur and the dreamers! Bureaucrats that really have no idea how business works are putting restrictions on business….and causing many to not even try….this results in less jobs-FYI: jobs are good! Taxing the hell out of the job providers eliminates jobs! Business form with the intention of profit, if there is no profit…..why have a business? No business, no jobs.

Below is a video I made that explains this in under 3 minutes, simply put- Conservatism is Common Sense 🙂

Why Dems won’t confirm Neil Gorsuch

~ Conservative Momma ~ Leave a comment

At this point it just looks like a total and complete tantrum by the Democrats. Judge Neil Gorsuch is BEYOND qualified to serve as a Supreme Court Justice! He has served on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit for over a decade! He was confirmed without any opposition at all in 2006 with bipartisan support of both Colorado’s U.S. Senators! With his extensive experience and a look at his rulings he puts his feelings and partisanship aside! Gorsuch graduated from Columbia University in only three years! He then attended Harvard Law School, with the help of a Truman Scholarship and he graduated cum laude. Judge Gorsuch later attended Oxford as a Marshall Scholar and earned a D.Phil in legal philosophy. He’s a father and a husband of two daughters. His resume and qualifications are endless!

I have been watching Chuck Schumer pushing for a filibuster, basically blocking the nomination.  Their excuses for blocking Gorsuch are literally almost comical! Democrat Kamala Harris from CA said “”Judge Gorsuch has consistently valued narrow legalisms over real lives.” Yep, in other words Gorsuch follows the law and puts feelings aside……ummm….that is common sense and you better hope feelings are put aside! Geeeeez! Under questioning from the Illinois Democrat Dick Durbin, Gorsuch was asked about a paper written by one of his professor’s, Gorsuch responded by saying he had not read the paper and the Democrats are throwing a fit that he didn’t answer the question! How can one answer a question about something he or she had not read!?? This is crazy!

So I naturally had to shoot this to display the ludicrousness of this entire fiasco!

Russia Russia Russia….sorry, I am over it!

“Circumstantial Evidence,” “Alleged,” “Supposed,” “Undisclosed Sources that can’t be confirmed or denied”……really….I mean really? This is ALL we hear about the Russian Narrative that the Mainstream Media continues to push. I have NEVER ever witnessed more sore losing than this IN MY LIFE!

The total and complete inability to acknowledge that President Trump won the election because Middle Class Hard Working Americans showed up and VOTED for him, can’t be accepted!

Russians didn’t cause record turnouts of crowds at Trump Rallies during the campaign! Russians didn’t force Democrats and Independents who had never voted for a Republican in the past, to vote for Trump. Russians didn’t pick an incredibly flawed candidate to run against Trump. Russians didn’t infiltrate the Electoral College and turn votes!

Yet….if you watched the Mainstream Media, you’d think Russians played a YUUUUGE role in President Trump’s victory! And they are STILL pushing this narrative! NO EVIDENCE has turned up after almost a YEAR of every investigative journalist in the world working on this!

At this point it’s just comical! That’s why I shot this yesterday….enjoy:

Want to Drain the Swamp? Then get rid of Career Politicians!

Term Limits crosses political parties and affiliations….it is simply this: Limiting the time our elected Congress men and women can serve in office. Basically putting a time limit on how long they are able to spend in Washington. If you had unlimited time to get something done, would you be in a hurry to get it done?

“But our Congressman is doing great, he votes just the way I want him to.” That’s wonderful, BUT there are other “great” men and women that are able to serve and bring fresh ideas and concepts to the table. If we don’t put NEW people in DC, than we will continue to get the same results. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is insanity! The whole goal becomes voting party line and getting  reelected, regardless of what’s right for the country! These guys become owned by big money!   “If I just vote the “party line” than my district or state will re-elect me and I get to stay here with all the perks!” This was NEVER meant to be!

Congress currently has a 28% approval rating and yet Incumbents (current congressman/women) have an over 93% chance of being re-elected. Geeeez….if an individual got a 28 out of 100 at a job in the private sector, they would be FIRED! If you take a test and get a 28% that’s a failing grade! If you fail….you don’t get to move on…because….ummm you failed!  

 “Well…getting someone new in there, with No knowledge of how Congress works, doesn’t seem like a smart move to me.” Really…..really….so you are pleased with the state of our country? How is that 19 Trillion in debt working for you? We are literally re-electing people to fix the problems they created! It is the current incumbent filled Congress that has gotten us to where we are today!

“The best way to ensure we are truly a government of the people, for the people, and by the people, is to replace the career politicians in Washingtonwith citizen legislators who care more about the next generation than their next election. – Senator Coburn

 “This nation can no longer afford these entrenched men and women who enjoy lives of luxury wholly insulated from the consequences of their major policy failures.” –Former Senator Jim Demint

 Oh forget it…it’s an uphill battle…Congress will never vote themselves out of a job…..you might be right. So what do YOU do?

 Find out if YOUR Senator or Congressperson supports Term Limits and will Term Limit themselves!? If so…great….vote for them…if NOT…VOTE THEM OUT! It will start with WE the People!

 It may start small….. a simple grassroots movement…but this is how you DRAIN THE SWAMP! For our Country’s future, for your kids future- we need men and women that are in Washington to serve and then go home…not stay….holding office is a JOB, it was never meant to be a CAREER! Get the Job done, then get out! 

Below is a video I posted on Facebook yesterday, “Meet today’s Career Politician” 🙂

 

Do your part and speak up! Demand Term Limits!

Let’s talk about who is being “Divisive.”
