Free Speech

This….this simple quote by Voltaire, is one of the primary reasons I am a Conservative: “I do not agree with what you have to say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.” It is a simple quote, defining the individuals right to speak freely, and the willingness of so many to preserve this right. This is why I am a strong supporter of the Constitution, which includes our Bill of rights, the FIRST amendment being the Freedom of Speech! I have noticed a recent flippant disregard for the Constitution, but let me remind you, it protects your ability to speak freely. With the recent tragedy in Paris, I have to say I am so thankful to live in a country that defends our right to free speech. Let us never for a moment take this right for granted. Let us fight to defend it. And let us undoubtedtly support those who we have elected that stand by the constitution, without it -we would not be free.

I mentioned on my Facebook Page that, it’s kinda strange how the ideology has changed among Liberals and the Freedom of Speech. Their parties platform for years preached freedom to liberate ones self through speech, they were adamant protectors of the 1st amendment. But then the Tolerance movement hit…i.e: “free to speak as long as you don’t offend.” Which ironically nullifies the concept of the freedom of speech.

This, again is why I am a conservative. I will not be caught up in the hype, or trends. I will stand by the Constitution, it has sustained and preserved freedom longer than any other nation on earth. I will then support those who also defend it!

I saw Conan O’Brien’s speech addressing yesterday’s tragic events, it rang true, because it is: 

“Tolerance is too often an excuse to not stand up to the tyrannical”  -Conservative Momma

Mob Politics

I read this earlier today and I simply can not let this go ignored!

So clearly Boehner’s posse is seeking revenge against those who voted for someone other then him as Speaker of the House on Tuesday. One of those lackey’s is Republican Rep Devin Nunes from California.

It is reported by the Daily Signal:  “that Nunes is reportedly drafting a resolution prohibiting members who vote against the speaker from chairing a subcommittee.” img1

I had to re-read this like three times and then I was speechless for a good five minutes, which is totally rare! (He looks nice in the pic, but this is straight street gangsta!)

For a second I thought I was living in Russia, Cuba, or China-I mean, seriously…..ummmm seriously?

This Nunes character is basically proposing that anybody who votes for a speaker who is not a member of the Establishment-not be allowed to hold a chair position on a subcommittee. Are you kidding me? At this point I am just waiting for Tony Soprano to show up in DC, because it’s literally turned into mob style politics! ‘Yo yo yo….let’s put outta hit on anyee- body that disagrees wid us.”

Last time I checked, this is a Constitutional Republic and well we the people are noticing the Constitution is being ignored! HELLOOOOOOOOO the people didn’t want Boehner re-elected, but our representatives went it alone, not representing their constitutes. You know I don’t even think we should call them Representatives anymore because they have stopped representing us!

Now I totally get that this resolution no way in hell will pass, because I gotta believe that there are still those that believe in FREEDOM and well…geeez the ability to I don’t know-vote for the people not the politicians!

I am hoping Devin Nunes is searching for work when it comes to elections in 2016….or I gotta better idea, it’s probably best he move to a country that is not represented by the PEOPLE.

At least ONE of em’ has a pair!

This blog entry is a simple shout out to Congressman Dave Brat. I do not know him personally, but I greatly respect him-why? Dave Brat is the ONLY Freshman Congressman that voted “NO” in re-electing Boehner as Speak of the House!

You might remember that Dave Brat was the guy that beat House Majority leader, Eric Cantor, back in the June primaries, causing a HUGE upset!! Brat then went on to win the general election for Virginia’s 7th Congressional District, and was sworn in in November, a little earlier than the rest.

While other Freshman Congress men and women, preached-“small” government “anti-establishment” lingo on the campaign trail recently, Brat is the only one walking it out! I was so proud of his bold stance, it’s not an easy thing to do as a Freshman. I am sure he now won’t get the best committee assignment-because it’s turned into mafioso politics in DC. “Ya best do what we say, or you’ll pay!” And, to most, selling your constitutes out to get in the “cool” group is part of the political game right? Well Brat gave me some hope, because he sided with the people-not the the “game.”

I was so proud to know that not all can be bought! I called his office and said thank you (You can too:202-225-2815)

I think we have to support these guys, going against the grain-it’s NOT easy, but it is what’s right!

Keep it up Congressman Brat-we CONSERVATIVES SUPPORT YOU!!!

thank-you

How I feel at the moment:

After the House decided to keep Boehner, this is how I am feeling right now:

independent-is-better-21878565532

Hopefully, 2015-brings redemption, but it hasn’t started out so bright. This vote just made me think, wow-both party’s are jacked! I am in full “Term Limits” mode right now! These politicians, lying to the constituents to get a vote, then go to DC and join the “boys” club! They are willing to lie to just get assigned the right committee, please!

Let’s start vetting the hell outta these guys! Hold them accountable, term limit them, and then send them back home! It was never meant to be a career, or a club! Geeeeez!
