TOWN HALL MEETING NOTICE

Do you live in Florida’s 24th Congressional District?

Do you believe that your voice is ignored by Rep. Suzanne Kosmas?

In fact, since her election, Suzanne Kosmas has not held a single town hall meeting providing any accountability to the people of the 24th District.

 

Ok, what has she done since she was elected?

  •  She has failed us miserably by voting for huge deficit spending that adds to our already   overwhelming National Debt, payable by us and our children.
  •  She has failed us miserably by voting to increase the power and size of an already over-burdensome and non-accountable Federal Government.
  •  She has failed us miserably by voting in favor of a failed and pork-filled stimulus scheme & a bloated, pork-filled budget.
  •  She has failed us miserably by voting in favor of a “cap & trade” tax scheme that would increase cost of all produced goods, utilities and gasoline for everyone.
  • She again failed us miserably by voting “yea” on a job killing, budget busting, liberty robbing, government growing, health care scheme opposed by the majority.
  • Were all that not enough, unemployment in the state of Florida has risen 50% from an level in January 09 to over 12.2% in February 2010, all on her watch.

It’s time to hold her accountable for her votes, and since she

refuses to meet WITH us, we will be sure that she hears FROM us!

Come to the 24th Congressional District Town Hall and be heard. Make comments and ask questions as you would in any typical town hall setting. We will feature an empty podium with Rep. Kosmas nameplate on it as a symbol of how she has turned a deaf ear to our district and our will. We will have the entire meeting recorded on video to share with Rep Kosmas and to post on “youtube” (and other sites). We believe it’s important to document how we feel about her  non-representation of us, and to share that with media outlets and the voters in our district between now and Election Day.

 WHEN:

Friday, April 9th 2010 – 7PM to 9:15

WHERE:

Oviedo Memorial Building (Next to the Firehouse – Downtown Oviedo) 38 S. Central Avenue Oviedo, FL 32765

We The People Really Do Want To Save Our Republic!

Posted by on January 19, 2010 · 3 Comments 

A few days ago, as I sat at the computer trying to get a handle on the latest political pulse of America, I had a random thought and it gave me some real hope for taking our great Country back again. Often times random thoughts and feelings take a back burner to life, but for some reason I decided to write this one down. Happily, this random thought has been able to help a few good patriots and I sincerely hope it will continue to do so. Recently, several email exchanges came to my attention and I thought perhaps my random thought may help some of these patriots who are feeling bummed, scared, angry, etc.  So here goes my two cents for what it’s worth.

I think the Massachusetts Special Election taking place today, would have been very different in the recent past, mainly because it would not be receiving the attention it is getting today. The American People are finally doing their job, yes they are doing their job as citizens today much more so than yesterday. Yesterday, we the people would not have known about this special election…media would have perhaps mentioned it briefly, however it really would not have been thought about much by us folks, after all it’s not in “our State” what can we do???? We probably would have sat back and watched, not taking the bold steps we’re taking to help.  I see this as a true awaking for a lot of Americans. I have several liberal friends in the Boston area, and I personally sent emails to them asking for help with saving our Republic. I would have never done that a couple of years ago.  I am no longer a politically correct person, too much is on the line.

As Benjamin Franklin said so long ago in response to the question by Mrs. Powell in 1787,

“Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?”
With no hesitation whatsoever, Franklin responded,
“A republic, if you can keep it.”

Perhaps the American people truly want to keep the Republic our Founding Fathers gave us, today much more so than yesterday!

Personally, I am thanking God for awakening the people. We have reached a turning point yet again in our great history.

Statue of Liberty Replica Beheaded in New York

Posted by on July 10, 2009 · Leave a Comment 

Police in New York City are scrambling to locate the producers of a YouTube video that depicts a stolen replica of the Statue of Liberty blindfolded, beheaded and smashed into pieces a display that one terror expert says is intended to “instill fear” in everyday Americans.

The 59-second video shows the 8-foot, 200-pound replica statue, which was stolen from a Brooklyn coffee shop last month, being decapitated and pulverized — accompanied by the words “We don’t want your freedom” and “Death to America.”

The video is sick and disturbing. The people behind it need to be captured and prosecuted. If you have any information please contact the New York Police Department 1-888-NYC-SAFE or The FBI

I have no idea if this was a childish hoax or was the work of radical Muslims – either way it’s disturbing and sick!

Obama’s Approval Rating is in Free Fall Cue Tom Petty

Posted by on July 9, 2009 · Leave a Comment 

The latest news is dreadful for the Obama administration and wonderful for those of us who care about this country and the founding principles it was built upon. 

Obama’s approval rating over the last couple of days is in free fall.  Rasmussen reported yesterday that his approval rating had dropped a full percentage point (-5) – which is huge for one day and usually indicates a trend.  Today’s report showed that Obama was at -8 making those who approve 51% and those opposed 48%.  The writing is on the wall and I think that other leaders in the conservative movement may have read these signs in advance – making their decisions that much easier. 

If Obama’s approval drops below 50% it will be incredibly difficult to get it over that point again – barring some miracle, economically speaking.  The chances of economic improvement are minimal and his empty slogan of hope and change is ringing hollow on the masses.  The economy does not look as though it will improve any time soon due to massive amounts of spending, a war waged against the middle class and small businesses, and the private sector, we will be in a massive downturn for a couple of years – inflation will be inevitable.  The chances of him surviving another term if he enacts legislation that would drastically dismantle the foundation this country was built upon, are slim-to-none.

Two swing states that turned blue last year were also polled.  The trend that is occurring at a national level is also occurring at the local level.  Both Ohio’s and Virginia’s approval ratings for Obama are below 50%. 

It will only be a matter of time before his personal approval rating comes down along with it!  My guess: October; when unemployment is worse, the market has taken another massive nose-dive (and it will – it will go lower than it did the first quarter of this year), and inflation hits.

ObamaCare Explained Through Legos

Posted by on July 8, 2009 · 1 Comment 

It’s important to remember that Massachusetts had a Republican governor at the helm, who proposed the same type of system that Obama is proposing.  As much as those out there argue that the governor’s plan was taken to extremes by the next liberal administration – that still does not excuse the fact that a progressive politician (be it Republican or Democrat) set in motion a piece of legislation that harms more than it helps.  The same could be said for Bush’s ‘No Child Left Behind Act.’  It was still Bush’s idea and he pushed for the legislation, even after it was made into something unintended. 

A recent study released from Massachusetts showed that only 26% felt that the state’s universal health care program worked.  Those who actually were the poorest and previously did not have health care, liked the program the least.  Progressives want people to believe that billions of people are without health care, when that’s not the case, and the few million who don’t have it, are either here illegally, choose not to use one of the many programs in existence that offers health care, or are fine with going to the emergency rooms in hospitals. 

Make no bones about it, Obama wants his way or it’s the highway.  He WON remember?  Get over it!  He doesn’t want to compromise on the health care debate, and he made that point abundantly clear today, even from overseas.  He told the moderate Democrats in Congress that he does not want a compromise with Republicans… He wants exactly what he proposed.  Smoke and mirrors legislation that looks as though the program is competitive, but would eventually make it too expensive for small and medium sized business to carry insurance for their employees.  The government cannot compete with the private sector – it always wins.
