Congressman Joe Wilson, R-SC, fired a two word shot into the mast of Obama during his speech to a joint session of congress... two words that will stand as the ultimate act of defiance against Obama's Government Dictated Health Care: YOU LIE
Immediate condemnation came from both sides of the aisle as the ever so tame Congressional Chambers, for a moment, became as boisterous as the British House of Commons.
Republican elites and Democratic elites alike have already said, and will continue to say that Joe Wilson was out of line, and that he had broken the code of decorum.
However, what we saw was a sheer act of bravery... career ending bravery perhaps, but bravery to directly challenge the lies of the administration and the Democratic party over the 1000+ pages of unconstitutional socialist policy making up this public option proposal.
Joe Wilson's Democratic opponent raised over $100,000 in the hour after the shout... I say we give some money to Joe Wilson... He has taken the Tea Party directly to the President... He has taken the voices of the millions of us who attended Town Hall meetings to debate this issue with our Congressmen and Senators directly to the President. He has given opposition a DEFIANT voice.
Now is not the time for DECORUM! Now is not the time for being polite.
Republican leaders should EMBRACE Joe Wilson's defiance... yet their condemnation is a signal that 2010 will not change a thing. Republicans and Democrats alike are too afraid to shake up the system, to move the pillars of socialism OFF the foundations of this country. They are cows... The politicians are cowards, the entire lot of them... Less JOE WILSON, who stood up for the American People, and will likely 'die' for it...
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori - How sweet and fitting it is to die for one's country
Joe Wilson will have an uphill battle heading into 2010, and it should be our struggle to keep this man in office. If he goes down, it will be because he stood up to tyranny!
Sic semper tyrannis
SUPPORT JOE WILSON
To hell with "Polite Politics"... We are mad as hell and we aint gonna take this Socialist Death March any more!
(on a private note, I loved the look on Obama's face and Pelosi's face)

McCain/Palin: It's Official - GOP Runs Reform Ticket
John McCain made it official tonight - he has accepted the call to duty as the candidate for the Republican Party!But he did not do it quietly. John McCain issued a warning to all politicians and lobbyists - "A Change Is Coming". That change is in the form of a new deal, a break from Partisan Politics and a break from corruption and business as usual in Washington DC. John McCain promises to lead the nation in a much needed reform of her leaders and their corruption.
How better can John McCain, Republican Candidate for the Presidency, show the citizens of this country that his promise of actual change - of actual reform in DC - is true? Sarah Palin.
John McCain and Sarah Palin represent the most frightening duo to the status quo in the District of Columbia, quoting John McCain:
"I’m not in the habit of breaking promises to my country and neither is Governor Palin. And when we tell you we’re going to change Washington, and stop leaving our country’s problems for some unluckier generation to fix, you can count on it. And we’ve got a record of doing just that, and the strength, experience, judgment and backbone to keep our word to you.”For years I have held a disdain for Senator John McCain - for his often liberal legislation that struck at the very core of what I believed. And I will make the admission now that this ill feeling was partisan in nature... McCain broke ranks with the Republicans on one too many issues.
However, with the selection of Sarah Palin and the message delivered tonight, I believe that I can truly support the mission that John McCain is taking on - a mission of reform.
The GOP needs reform from her ranks swollen with corruption.
The Democrats need reform from their corrupt dealings within the once highly respected offices in the federal government.
Washington DC needs reform from it's Pork Barrell ways, aimed at encouraging lobbyists and providing a breeding ground for scandal and corruption.
And the federal government needs reform from a set of rules and regulations put in place in a time when business and the world worked much differently under very different technologies.
John McCain is taking the mantra from Obama - and promises to deliver true Change.
Obama's change is that of increasing government influence in our daily lives - changing from a libertarian based society to a socialist based society.
McCain's change is that of fixing the ills in the government, reducing it's size, and ensuring that the citizens are released from the authoritarian society we fear, and are allowed to live locally under more personal responsibility - the way this country was intended in it's founding.
Sarah Palin was the ticket for me. John McCain has won my endorsement and my vote!
The Bold and the Beautiful… and the Pitbull!
Consider Sarah Palin officially introduced to the nation! Now the voters of America know what I have been trying to explain for nearly a year – Sarah Palin is the future of the Republican Party, and the Democrats’ worst nightmare!
Her speech last night was feminine, but firm; showing that a Hockey Mom from small town America truly does have what it takes to lead this nation. For all the slander and slime that the liberal left has attempted to throw her way over the last five days, Sarah Palin delivered a bold “Shame On You!” with her cheeky yet inspiring address at the RNC.
"I think Sarah Palin can do a one-two punch better than Muhammad Ali," Kansas state Sen. Karin Brownlee said after the speech. "And I think she delivered it just square on the opponents' face. I think she has energized the Republican Party like we haven't seen in a long time."
Where the GOP was left with cracks and concerns after a John McCain nomination – a general level of unease in selecting a centrist maverick who openly toyed with the thought of appointing an Independent Democrat to share the ticket – Sarah Palin has repaired those cracks. Sarah Palin stood with the grace of royalty and celebrity, but delivered a speech with the strength of a no-holds-barred hitman ready to take on the media and the left. Sarah Palin has successfully united the GOP – and now she is reaching out to independents and inviting them back into the large tent of the Republican Party.
And for all the inspiration and energy she brings to the Republican Ticket, she is instilling the same amount of fear in the hearts of the Democrats. Left wingers in the blogosphere are attacking her speech now for lack of substance and mean-spiritedness, not realizing that it was a shot across the bow of the national press and DC insiders – warning them to back off of her and her family. Her strength and poise are inspiring to the GOP, and drawing attacks from the left. The GOP has a shiny beacon on the hill, and her name is Sarah Palin. She has the power to ensure that the change in America is a conservative one, and that we get back to being Americans – not Socialist European wannabees.
The left have got their hands full now! The Republicans are ready to fight, ready to reform, and ready to lead!

“A Man Who Never Quits is Never Defeated”
Fred Thompson stole the show last night at the Republican National Convention. His energized and moving toast to John McCain and Sarah Palin at the top of the ticket inspired Republicans and set the tone for how tough this ticket is going to be for Democrats in November.
He hit Obama and the Democratic controlled congress hard – claiming that their politics do not represent change, rather, they represent the same old stuff they have been peddling for years. Fred Thompson threw down the gauntlet on the liberal notion of change, and on the liberal definition of progress. The change is that the Democrats plan to run the most liberal government, establish the most liberal bureaucracies, and ensure the most liberal judges in the history of the US – the sure undoing of the intended freedoms established by our founding fathers.
But the best line of the entire speech was this: “A man who never quits is never defeated”. John McCain is that man. He has spent an entire career fighting the Republican Establishment – challenging change in his own right. Some of his issues are not my favorites (immigration reform and campaign finance reform), but his pursuit of what he believed to be right has won him notice on the national stage, and branded him as the original maverick. John McCain and Sarah Palin represent reform for the GOP, and a different kind of hope for America – a hope that we can return to conservative government that is smaller and more locally controlled, a government that balances it’s budget and controls wasted spending, and a government that eliminates taxes and allows Americans to keep their hard earned money. Fred Thompson made it clear that McCain/Palin is the best bet for America. The full video of his speech is below:

The Search for Freedom
Today's post is a major hat-tip to Matt at Search For Freedom, now #1 in my blogroll...
Matt has two excellent videos posted on his site, and I am going to post them here because I think they are essential videos to our conservative foundation and to our political future.
The first is the 1964 Speech made by Reagan. It was supposed to be a pro-Goldwater speech, but it turned into something more. The great communicator, indeed! Had Huckabee used his orator skills to deliver such a moving and strong speech, we would be looking at Huckabee in 2008 instead of McCain.
However, since we have McCain, I am impressed by the next video, a McCain ad. I have been hesitant in endorsing John McCain, until I watched this ad. This ad sends a great message: He gets it! John McCain gets what we are doing for America, where we are at in world politics, and what we need to give conservatives in America a fighting chance at survival and longevity. I've already watched the video a few times... I'm impressed.
Thanks Matt. Two great videos! Two very important messages!

Clinton, Boxer: Let's Squash Conservative Talk Radio
An interesting snippet of an article...
What we are witnessing is an increased "reigning in" of conservative free speech... I love where this is going... freedom to discuss issues, freedom to protest government, freedom to express dissenting views... oh wait, scratch that last one if you are a conservative... in fact, conservatives, scratch ALL those on the list...
According to the Liberal Leaders in Congress, the Conservatives' ability to freely discuss issues is NOT protected by the first ammendment.
Listen very carefully... Yes, I am talking to you Moonbats Clinton and Boxer... You are lighting the fuse to a powderkeg if you start telling me what I can and cannot say, or think, or wish, or dream... keep your hands off my thoughts, keep your hands off my ability to speak freely.
This is why socialism is a BAD idea... much like the Soviet Socialist Republic... where the government will review each broadcast, and provide scripts for broadcasters prior to anything being aired... take control of the presses, and eliminate any dissenting opinion... fascism at it's best... 1984?????
The point is, The more liberties that are snatched up by our government, the more we become slaves to the new master... a beast of a government, from who's grip there is little hope of escaping. Let us all hope that the time for action is not too late, and that the raging river of the overbearing government can still be turned back, leaving us with the liberties and freedoms that our founders fought for so long ago.
For now, the most we can hope for is a complete sweep of congress... doing away with a senate and legislature that rivals the Late Roman Empire for corruption...
Beware the thought police... and God Bless!

"Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We
are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that
siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged
in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the
numbers of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the
things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever
anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth, to know the
worst, and to provide for it." - Patrick Henry, March 23, 1775
For now, the most we can hope for is a complete sweep of congress... doing away with a senate and legislature that rivals the Late Roman Empire for corruption...
Beware the thought police... and God Bless!
