The Rundown for May 26, 2012

Today on Red, Right, and Blue:

All that and more coming up today as hosts Rick Bulow, Tricia Baber, and Producer Nicole Parr bring you two hours of news and views from a citizen’s point of view. Come and join them in the chatroom at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/05/26/red-right-and-blue and you can also call in to 718-305-7176 to give your opinions or ask your questions to the guests.

Brett Kimberlin

The year was 1978. The place was Speedway, Indiana. Eight bombs were set off in the span of several days. One of the bombs blew up a police car, and another blew the right leg off of a Vietnam Veteran. The bomb also severely injure the Veteran's left leg, and the damage was too great for him that he committed suicide in 1983. Police suspect a man, Brett Kimberlin, of the bombings after several store clerks mentioned that he procured bomb making materials. Also during this time an elderly lady was shot in the head because she disapproved of Kimberlin's relationship with her granddaughter.

Kimberlin was arrested along with others in a massive drug smuggling operation in Texas and was sentenced to 50 years in federal prison on impersonating a military official in addition to his convictions for the bombings and the drug smuggling charges. He was somehow paroled in the early 1990's and is now a left wing activist for Velvet Revolution along with Brad Friedman. It is interesting to note that he claimed that while in prison he sold drugs to Dan Quayle. Also, it is interesting to note that he is receiving funds from such liberal organizations and people such as Barbra Streisand, Teresa Heinz Kerry, The Tides Foundation and (mayhap) even George Soros himself.

Why am I bringing all of this up now? It has come to my attention that there have been several conservative bloggers (such as Mandy Nagy the Liberty Chick, Patterico, the late Andrew Breitbart, and now Robert Stacy McCain of The Other McCain) who have been harassed by him to the point some had lost jobs, had to move away or (possibly) even lost their life. This past Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, I was fortunate to sit in on a call with Robert Stacy McCain and heard him recount the ordeal of his dealings with Kimberlin and his associates. Ladies and Gentlemen, Kimberlin is the perfect model for the Left's alinskyesque ways, and why he needs to be stopped. I think it is messed up when the Tea Party is being derided and also when a man who had helped us get Bin Laden in Pakistan is sent away to jail for 33 years, yet KNOWN domestic terrorists like Brett Kimberlin and Bill Ayers are still out there roaming the streets without a care in the world.

Lee Stranahan, personal friend of Andrew Breitbart and the host of Darby Stranahan on BlogTalk Radio, had put together a wonderful video as to who Brett Kimberlin is. I know he had said that he declared May 25 as "Blog about Kimberlin Day" but after hearing about this I am of the belief that EVERY DAY should be Blog about Kimberlin Day as we need to get the word out there daily and let the BlameStream Media know just how dangerous Kimberlin is and that we are putting him on notice for causing ordinary citizen journalists to live their lives in fear daily.

(Thanks to Patterico and also to Robert Stacy McCain and Liberty Chick for opening our eyes to this menace)

Career Politicians

Another election season is in the works. If you are not seeing them already, you will be seeing commercials on TV or mailings in your email or through the United States Postal Service from your Representative wanting more money and/or your support for them in the upcoming election. Chances are said politician has been in office for 20 or 40 years and done nothing for your district. You are wondering why you continue to vote for that politician and had nothing to show for it. Is there someone out there who has YOUR best interests at heart?

Well there is. That organization is called GOOOH, which stands for Get Out Of Our House. It is very fitting as the organization intends to vote out all 435 members of the House of Representatives and replace them with citizen activist, citizen statesmen if you will. GOOOH has people in all 50 states and 435 Congressional Districts with that sole purpose. Each district has three rounds (sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the district) of intense, competitive “citizen conventions” designed to pick a single candidate which is represented by GOOOH and also by the people of said conventions. Will they be successful? I do not know, but do know that it will be up to the people of that particular district if they are. The question to ask is: “are you happy with the same old career politicians who are working for the lobbyists, or do you want a citizen statesman looking out for your interest?”

On today’s show you will be hearing one of these citizen statesmen. His name is Byron Donalds, and he will be representing the 19th District of Florida, where I reside. Just a bit of history the 19th District was renumbered due to the Census of 2010. Before that it was the 14th District and had been represented by Connie Mack IV (who is vacating his seat to run for the Senate) since 2005. Mr. Donalds is a businessman and a self-described constitutional conservative. He has never before competed for nor served in public office. Mr. Donalds is highly intelligent, straightforward, and refreshingly willing to put a stake in the ground on a wide variety of critical issues such as the economy and taxes, debt reduction, and healthcare reform among others. On August 14, he will be involved in a primary to see who will advance to the General Election on November 6.

Beginning now and through November 6, let us tell the career politicians to GOOOH!

The rundown for May 19, 2012

On the show today, I will be having Byron Donalds on the show, Byron is running for the 19th Congressional District (formerly the 14th congressional district which is my own district and which was represented by Connie Mack IV, who is leaving the District seat to run for the Senate seat against “Wild” Bill Nelson) and will be on the air from 1:30 – 2:15 PM Eastern. The first 30 minutes we will be talking about his campaign and then at 2 PM Keith Flaugh, Director of GOOOH for Southwest Florida, will be calling in and for the final 15 minutes of Byron’s time we will be discussing the process Byron has gone through in order to be the nominee. Then we will continue the GOOOH discussion about how it came about and also what the plan is for the future. As today is also Armed Forces Day I will be thanking the Armed Forces in my own unique way.

All this and more will be discussed on Red, Right, and Blue at 1:30 PM Eastern. The chatroom at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/05/19/red-right-and-blue will be open 30 minutes beforehand. ALSO, the show will be simulcast on Own The Narrative as well. The phone number is 718-305-7176 and you can also Skype in as soon as the show starts. The Skype button will appear next to the phone number at the top of the show page. Be sure to come and join us for the fun and frivolity that is Red, Right, and Blue.

Mitt Romney is the nominee. Now what?

“And whoever shall force you to go one mile, go with him two” (Matthew 5:41 NASB)

All right, so Mitt Romney is the nominee. Is he our first choice? No, but the establishment has us over a barrel to elect him. As soon as Romney is elected in November 6, we have the chance to flip the barrel and take the establishment to the woodshed. How can we do that? I don’t have the answer, but actually read something from a blog article posited by my good friend Felicia Cravens (aka @somethingfishie on Twitter)

Jimmie Bise Jr. has an answer.  Go to the site for his radio show "The Delivery" and download the podcast from April 4th.  Listen to the whole hour.  Jimmie rants about the Romney candidacy, and does it in a way that I find quite eloquent.  But Jimmie doesn't just rant.  Jimmie proposes a Grand Bargain.
I couldn't say it as well as he does:
"I've reached a compromise in my head with the Republican Party...


"I am going to extend some credit to the Republican party.  I am going to vote for Mitt Romney.  I am going to do my very best, consistent with my ability to keep my own intellectual integrity intact.  I am going to recommend to my friends that they vote for Mitt Romney... I want Mitt Romney to beat Barack Obama.  I will do whatever I have to do to drag this dead horse over the finish line.


"That's what I'm going to give the Republican party... Republicans, that what you get from me.  I don't want to do this, I don't like doing this, but I will do it.  I'll do it because, quite honestly, you have me behind the eight ball.


"But know this, Republican Party; after November, I am no longer behind the eight ball.  And I don't have to do anything else for you at all...


"So here's where the compromise comes in...  I'll drag his bloated ideological corpse where it has to be...
but I want something in return... You have dragooned me into doing something for you....


"I'm telling you, you're not going to have me locked to this oar forever... after November, you start paying me back...


"I will not do this again.


"No more, Republicans, I'm done with this.  WE are done with this.  All those tea party people that right now you think you have under your thumb, they're there till November."
Hear the rest at The Delivery, and tell me what you think.  I think I could live with this, the way Jimmie puts it.

Like I had been positing in the past in recent editorials, Obama has to go, and the only one to defeat him in November is Mitt Romney. May we do all we can to make it so and make Obama a one-term president.

The rundown for May 12, 2009

Join Rick Bulow and Patricia Baber today as they give a different look on the news with no spin. Today they will also welcome Nicole Parr (aka Own The Narrative Network’s PITA) into the family as the show’s producer. Also on the show:

  • 40% of West Virginians voted for a convicted felon over Obama in the primary on Tuesday,
  • Indiana voted for Richard Mourdock over Dick Lugar (thus lending to the term first coined by a caller to the Dana Loesch Show “Indiana hocked a Lugar”)
  • Obama came out of the closet in support of Gay Marriage

All that and more today on Red, Right, and Blue starting at 1:30 PM Eastern. The chatroom will open 30 minutes earlier both on http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/05/12/red-right-and-blue and now simulcast on http://www.ownthenarrative.com/live if you want to join in the chat.

The Rundown for the show on May 5, 2012

On today’s show, Rick Bulow and Patricia Baber will discuss Obama’s latest distraction from his record (#Julia) as well as his new campaign slogan (#Forward) and it’s ties to Communism and Socialism. Also, Chris Loesch is scheduled to call in and discuss what had happened to him last weekend when his Twitter account was suspended three times in 75 minutes. And the latest jobs numbers are in. What does this mean for the unemployment rate and for America as a whole?

 

Join us today at 1:30 PM Eastern where will discuss these things and more including your phone calls. The chatroom will open 30 minutes early at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/05/05/red-right-and-blue and the phone number is 718-305-7176.

The 2012 Presidential Election: A Chance to Repeat History

In a new Facebook Group called "Oh, alright. Fine. Mitt Romney 2012. Wooo..." there was a conversation on Thursday morning between my friends Laura Foster and Jolene Ann in which it was brought up to put the car in R before we drive off that cliff. No truer words have been spoken.

This election, as I has posited in the past, is not about electing the Republican candidate but about UNelecting Obama. Now this year it is going to be Mitt Romney, and we as patriots have to do whatever it takes to make sure Romney beats Obama in November. We have history on our side in three respects.

  • Since 1860, every election that had been held on November 6 had gone to the Republican nominee.  (Abraham Lincoln in 1860, Grover Cleveland in 1888, William McKinley in 1900, Herbert Hoover in 1928, Dwight Eisenhower in 1956, and Ronald Reagan in 1980)
  • Last 3 Governors to be nominated to run v incumbent Presidents have won.
  • Last 3 times incumbent Presidents have lost, they were defeated by a Governor.

Both times it was Jimmy Carter in 1976, Ronald Reagan in 1980, and Bill Clinton in 1992. Mitt Romney would be the 4th in both if and when he wins in November. There is a cliff symbolizing socialism ahead of us, and this election is a make or break election in which we either have a chance to put the car in Reverse or keep it in Drive. If we keep going the way we are, then as I had mentioned in recent editorials, the country as we know it will cease to exist. We need someone to put a bandaid on the bleeding, and Mitt Romney in my opinion is the one to if not stop the bleeding outright at least stop the bleeding for 4 or even 8 years.

Dr. Alexander Tytler had written a scholarly tome called "The Athenian Republic" which was published before the 13 colonies had declared their independence from Britain. In it he comes up with a wonderful concept:

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government.  It can only exist until the voters discover they can vote themselves largess from the public treasury.

"From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising them the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.

"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.  These nations have progressed through this sequence:

"From bondage to spiritual faith;
from spiritual faith to great courage;
from courage to liberty;
from liberty to abundance;
from abundance to selfishness;
from selfishness to apathy;
from apathy to dependence;
from dependency back again into bondage."

Right now I think we are at the apathy to dependence stage based on the fact that we have a lot of people depending on the government to pay for everything when they are able to get off their lazy asses and get to work. The people are a part of what Neal Boortz refers to as the "Dumb Ass, Dumb Masses" who do not care about politics or when they do, they want the government to look out for them.

If you want the government to pay and give you everything on a silver platter, then vote for Obama and kiss this country goodbye. If you want to work HARD for everything and NOT have the government give you everything on a silver platter, then vote for Mitt Romney and save this country.

The rundown for April 28, 2012

On the show today, Rick Bulow will welcome Tricia Baber to the Red, Right, and Blue family. They will be speaking on the video by Free Market America entitled “If I wanted America to fail” And at 2:30 PM Eastern they will be interviewing the candidate for Congress going up against DCCC Chairman Steve Israel, Steve Labate. They will also be taking your phone calls as well as questions and comments from those in the chatroom throughout the show.

Come and join in on the fun today at 1:30 PM Eastern, 10:30 PM Pacific. The chatroom at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/04/28/red-right-and-blue will open 30 minutes before the show starts. When the show starts, you will be able to call in at 718-305-7176 OR you can use Skype. The Skype call-in button will be displayed right next to the number on the show page as soon as the show starts.

America is failing Under Obama

For my editorial this week, I would like to play this video called "If I Wanted America to Fail" by a group called Free Market America. You had probably heard this played earlier in the week and read on many sites that Twitter had suspended their Twitter account because of this video. Well thanks to people like Michelle Malkin and Twitchy Twitter had reinstated their account about 48 – 72 hours later. If you want to read the transcript, you can find it here.

Folks, this video is so true because America IS failing now thanks to those on the Left who are doing all of these things. Last week I had watched “Atlas Shrugged Part 1” online for the 3rd time, and I have to tell you that Atlas is shrugging and shrugging hard. If we do not do anything about the change of where this country is going, we might see America fall and everything we had fought for 236 years ago be for naught. Barack Obama is doing the exact same thing that this video is proposing. We need to, no, we HAVE to, vote him out come November 6. If we do not, then we might as well kiss this country goodbye.

The Rundown for April 21, 2012

On today’s show, I will be having open phone lines AND I will also be hoping to have a roundtable for those who were at the Cain’s Revolution on the Hill on Monday to give their feedback on the event, as well as a few behind the scenes events. I will also be making a few announcements on a couple of shows and more.

All the fun happens at 1:30 PM Eastern, 10:30 AM Pacific. So do join us. The address is http://www.blogtalkradio.com/conservativennationradio/2012/04/21/red-right-and-blue and the phone number is 718-305-7176 if you want to call in. The chatroom will be open 30 minutes before the show starts, so tell a friend and come join us!

How the Right owns talk radio

In my last editorial, I mentioned how we needed an online Social Media Tea Party. In the various methods used, it seemed like I had neglected one other main form of social media. That form is online radio. There are a lot of online radio stations and talk show hosts out there, from those who are nationally known like Tony Katz (who I consider to be “The Godfather of online radio” because he is doing for online radio what Rush Limbaugh had done for AM/FM/Satellite Radio), Dana Loesch (who, though on a terrestrial FM station out of St. Louis, MO, I consider to be in this genre based on her involvement with the Tea Party), Larry O’Connor, Hugh Hewitt, and others, to those relative unknowns like Stephen Vandergast (The voice of BlogTalk Radio), Tessler, (The dean of BlogTalk Radio), Annie the Radio Chick (aka Southern Sense), G-Ski Rocks, Dana Smearman, Toni Walsh, Michelle Ray, Kira Davis, and others. In this online radio station and talk show host genre you could even include those outside of BlogTalk Radio, like my good friends at the Texas Or Busted Media Empire, Justin Kendall, Titan 92, NJ Libertarian, Rob Alloy IV, PrarieDog SD, and even Texas or Busted himself.

What I am getting at is that online radio (and I will even take it one step further and say Talk Radio as a whole) is one method that we as Conservatives are good at. Why? Let us take two hypothetical liberals: John Doe the liberal columnist for the New Yan Times and Joe Schnook of a liberal talk show based out of New Yan City. John runs a column which is featured in 500 papers across the country and Joe is a host of a talk show which is heard on 500 stations across the country. They both say the same thing in the column and radio show daily. Both of which are listened to or read by millions of people nationwide, with differing results. Liberals applaud their words, and there are many other listeners and readers who are of the opinion that what they had heard and read is the biggest bunch of bovine excrement they have heard in a long time. But there is a vast difference.

What is that difference you ask? The columnist goes into his cushy office and lights up a cigar while his email and newspaper office box is filled with letters of outrage as well as columns and articles sent by readers with proof that what he says is totally debunked by research and facts. However, he has a secretary which screens every letter and email he receives, and as such he does not read the hate mail that comes in. The talk show host, on the other hand, is in a dilemma. He is seeing the phones light up and has to defend his position against the same arguments which the readers to the columnist had sent via email and postal mail.

You see, the columnist has an isolation which allows him to protect his image as a genius, facing challenges only when he wants to. Now the talk show host does not have that liberty. He crumbles under the onslaught of the callers with a different viewpoint and argument. At the end of the day both the columnist and the talk show host go home. The columnist with a sense of pride that his word is out there and he had not seen any contrarian response because of his secretary. The talk show host with a sense of humiliation, having limped to the end os the show being battered and bloodied under the crushing stones of fact and logic.

Oh sure the liberal talk show host might not have to tell his producer not to put any calls on the air, but with all of the talking points of the left about how evil America and Conservatives are, as well as how individualism is not the way to go, they might have a difficult time filling up the remaining two hours and thirty minutes to two hours and forty-five seconds of their show.

Ladies and gentlemen, talk radio is one social media venue where we as Conservatives own and control the narrative. There are many ways to get involved in talk radio both online and offline. Online, you can tune into good shows like this one, like The TPZ Forum, like Mitchell and Ray, like Socialism is not an Option, like The Conservative Watchtower, like NoBamanation, like Soldiers of Patriotism, like Women Patriots, like Live and Direct with G-Ski Rocks and the Captain, like TB-TV and it’s companion the Contingency Show, and call in to participate. Offline you can call into your local talk shows or even to good national syndicated shows like Rush, like Boortz, like Levin, like Savage, like Hannity, and call in to participate. You can also plug your favorite shows both online and offline via the other social media venues I mentioned last week. Online you can also host your own show via UStream, LiveStream, and even right here on BlogTalk Radio. We HAVE the edge, we OWN the narrative as far as talk radio goes. Let us do what we can to maintain that edge, to keep owning that narrative.

The Tea Party

I am not a member of any tea parties here in Fort Myers, Florida. However, I am affiliated with a couple online and also know a lot of Tea Party supporters, so to read this letter to the editor in The News Press on Monday, April 2, 2012 is real disturbing to me

Make Believe

Tea parties are for little girls with imaginary friends.

Brendan Lally, Fort Myers

And then on the next page to see the Headline by E.J. Dionne of the Washington Post entitled “Tea Party tosses traditions of conservatism overboard” really got my blood pressure soaring. If it were not for a Tea Party, there would be no America today. No, I do not mean the Tea Party protests and the elections of 2009 – 2010. I am going further back.

Let us step into the time machine and take a trip to Colonial Boston in 1773. At the time Great Britain had ruled over the colonies. On May 10, King George had put the royal seal of approval on the Tea Act, which was supposed to convince the colonists to purchase Company tea on which the Townshend Duties were paid, thus implicitly agreeing to accept Parliament's right of taxation. It had also granted the Company the right to directly ship its tea to North America and the right to the duty-free export of tea from Britain, although the tax imposed by the Townshend Acts and collected in the colonies remained in force.

The Colonists were not pleased, and as such recognized the implications of the Act's provisions, and a coalition of merchants and artisans similar to that which had opposed the Stamp Act of 1765 mobilized opposition to delivery and distribution of the tea. The company's authorized consignees were harassed, and in many colonies successful efforts were made to prevent the tea from being landed. This culminated in the Boston Tea Party where colonists (some disguised as Native Americans) boarded tea ships anchored in the harbor and dumped their tea cargo overboard. The group (led by Samuel Adams) numbered somewhere between 30 and 130 colonists dressed as Mohawk Indians who had boarded the Dartmouth, Beaver, and Eleanor and destroyed and tossed 342 chests of tea overboard into Boston Harbor in the span of three hours. This was one of the fuses which led to the American Revolutionary War. Granted, there were other events which precipitated the colonists to revolt, but the Boston Tea Party set the stage for the final straw to the colonists to break ties from England.

If it were not for those patriots, those Sons of Liberty, there would be no America now. In 2009 with ObamaCare on the forefront and also the stimulus bill, people were fed up with Obama’s policies that they revot4ed. Not with throwing tea into harbors or even going out into the streets with guns and hacksaws, but rather with loud voices and constitutions in their hands and confronted their Senators and Congressmen who had put in their support for ObamaCare and the stimulus, as well as a few laws like Dodd-Frank and Sarbanes-Oxley. That led to the election of Scott Brown to fill Ted Kennedy’s seat in Massachusetts in January, 2009 after Kennedy died as well as the massive election in 2010 when the Republicans took back the House with victories by Allen West, Michelle Bachman, and other Representatives backed by the Tea Party.

The Tea Party IS alive and well in 2012 also. Granted, there have been many of the Tea party darlings like Rubio, Ryan, and others who have backed Mitt Romney for president, but they are in no way establishment based now, which is what many have said on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media outlets. May we do what we can to keep the House, take back the Senate, and evict Obama from the White House in 2012. To quote Darrell Lee in The Patriot Zone on Facebook,

Dear President Obama,
The answer to 2012 is 1773.
Retrospectively Yours,
The Tea Party

Online Social Media Tea Party?

There is a reason I had titled this rant like I did. Back in July during the debt ceiling debacle Hugh Hewitt, a talk radio host as well as a columnist for TownHall.com, mentioned that a “Twitter Tea Party” is needed. I had tweeted a couple of things during that Tea Party, and think that another one is needed right now. Only thing is I will go one better. What we need is just as I had mentioned in the title of this blog entry, an ONLINE SOCIAL MEDIA Tea Party.

As far as I know, there are 8 forms of Social Media online right now:

  1. Facebook (http://www.facebook.com)
  2. Twitter (http://www.twitter.com)
  3. Tumblr (http://www.tumblr.com)
  4. LinkedIn (http://www.linkedin.com)
  5. Digg (http://www.digg.com)
  6. YouTube (http://www.youtube.com)
  7. any and all blogs
  8. any and all message boards

(NOTE: If there are any others I am forgetting, please let me know. Also, I realize I am missing sites like RedState, Tea Party Patriots, Tea Party Nation, and FreedomWorks and FreedomConnector as well, but I have included them in the final two forms.)

With sites like Facebook and Twitter, I would propose we find out the online pages of ALL of the political figures - whether they are local, state, or national – and post on their sites, telling them how you think they are doing and just let them know what you would like to see enacted on either a bill or some other pending legislation, as well as your thoughts on how they had voted on prior pieces of legislation. Also, Facebook and Twitter are good sites to post articles and other items to let people know what is happening not only in America but all around the world.

With sites like Tumblr, LinkedIn, and Digg, I would propose that we find articles and other items, like we did with Facebook and Twitter, and post them to our pages to let people know what is happening. This way we can get the word out and keep others up to date on what is happening.

In the event that the articles we had found are already posted to Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, LinkedIn, or Digg by others, we should like, share, Retweet, Digg, and/or even comment on them.

With YouTube, we have a choice of either uploading a video of our own opinions on certain events, uploading videos of rallies or speeches, or commenting on the videos which are already out there.

For the various blogs and message boards out there, we can employ the same methods we used above, especially sharing them on the other social media outlets. This way the same articles get multiple coverage.

Why do I say post the same articles on all forms of social media? The answer is real simple. You might have different friends on Facebook than you do on Twitter (for example) and as such your Twitter friends might not be aware of a certain issue if you had only posted it to Facebook. I use all of the above social media outlets and there are some friends who are one outlet but not on others. If you only post to one social media outlet and then tell your friends on another they might feel out of the loop if they had not read a certain article, blog entry, or anything else. That is why we should cover ALL of the social media outlets, regardless of what they are, and get the word out there.

If you are interested in a Social Media Tea Party, please let me know and hopefully we can try to work something out. My email and Instant Messengers are always open and available for discussion about this.

Merchants of Despair

For my editorial this week, I figure I would let one person speak on the current malaise of this country and government better than I can. If you ever watched any of the videos on PJTV then you had probably heard of Bill Whittle.

The 2012 Election and Talk of a Third Party (Part 2)

Well apparently it seems like many people either did not read my entry from last week or they did and just brushed it off as nonsense so let me reiterate this once more.

THIS ELECTION IS WAY TOO IMPORTANT TO VOTE THIRD PARTY!

In other words, the ONLY TWO VIABLE CHOICES for this election are BARACK OBAMA AND THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE. If you sit at home or vote for anyone else then it is a throwaway vote for Obama. Many of us have our own reasons why we are not going to vote for any of the GOP candidates in the primaries, but if this does not go into a brokered convention, then our ONLY OTHER CHOICE is to come together as a party or a group and vote Obama out. The only one that can do that is the Republican nominee. No third party candidate (outside of Ross Perot in 1992) had gotten enough traction to make a dent in the election count, whether it is popular vote or electoral vote.

Allow me to reiterate two comments made my by Harriet Baldwin, my co-host, in the Patriot Zone

  • Let me be clear: This is the MOST important election in our lifetimes. We MUST get behind the nominee-whoever it may be. A vote for ANY "third party candidate" is a vote for The Fraud aka Barack Hussein Obama. You are either with America or against America. Voting for Third Party or sitting on your sorry azz is unaccepatable.
  • Get involved. Get informed. COMMUNICATE. This "Third Party" talk is FINE after 2012. Not now. Imagine what this America-hating Usurper will do as a Lame Duck? Give me a break. End of America.
  • IF we do not vote for the GOP nominee in November, then this WILL be our future during an Obama second term

     

    If you want this to happen, then go ahead and vote for Barack Obama or those fronts known as third party candidates this year. I am voting for the Republican nominee because I want to be able to sing this come November 7.

    The choicer is yours, either a tyrannical anti-American dictator to lead us into the fall of the Republic, or the chance to sing Goodbye to him in November.
