Oh, this is a surprise! Obama's hope and change - cars that won't run. I really think he should switch over to promoting bikes or we could be more like China and have those Rickshaws. The new Americhina coming to you soon!

More for the Republican candidates to use against Obama. Obama is clearly the worst President in history. He has attacked every piece of good in America.

And they talk about Rush Limbaugh. This is the most direspectful piece of trash and imagine that, he's an Obama supporter!

Andrew Breitbart was a great guy and we will miss him greatly. He truly knew what it was to love his country unlike many politicians we have in office today. So many people loved him and followed his battle with the Progressives. We'll miss you, Andrew!

When I got into politics I had such high hopes for the Republican party instead I have found that they are less respectful of others in their party than the Dems. Before voting in this election, I caution Jefferson County residents to research the candidates you are supporting. People that want you to vote for them smile to your face and act as though they genuinely care about you and then when you disagree with them, they will do what it takes to throw you under the bus. It is important to get to know these politicians, know what they stand for, listen to what other people say about them. Ask their constituents how they feel about their representative. Come to the Council meetings and Board meetings and be aware of the legislation they are passing. Be aware of how they treat their fellow elected officials. Talk is cheap and a smile means nothing, the true story is their political, religious or community history.

Today was a great day! Went to a St. Louis Tea Party Coalition Anniversary Party. It was very informational and we all learned so much. If you want to make sure this country stays free, you must get involved in your neighborhood and county. Jefferson County residents, please try to attend the Caucus on March 17th. Make sure you have a say in the process. Check with your Central Committee Chair and ask how many delegates make up a slate in your Township and ask if delegates have already been picked. Get your family, friends and neighbors together and go to the Caucus to be a part of the process. If you don't want the delegates that have been picked for you, put a slate together from your group. You cannot complain if you don't get involved yourself - be active, be aware and be a voice!
