We have about a week left untill the single most important election since Abraham Lincoln was elected. Will we continue down the statist/totalitarian path laid before us by Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid?
Or will we reclaim American greatness and Constitutionally protected freedoms and liberties?
The choice IS that stark. It's never been clearer. We need to take back the Senate.
You can make a difference by contributing to the Senate Conservatives Fund.
TAKE AMERICA BACK !!
It's up to us, please give what you can, and do it soon!

Facebook Warning!! Read, Heed, and Pass Around.
Important information if you post on Facebook!
If anyone out there is on Facebook, be very wary of the postings with the Commit to Vote logo. It is being used by the Obama operatives to gather information about you and all of your Facebook friends. Do not click on it because you trust the person who put the logo on your page. Many are not aware and did not bother really reading all the info before becoming involved. It is Obama and "Commit to Vote" is their mantra in an effort to overcome the conservative wave coming.
Remember when we had a president who DIDN'T WANT your personal infomation. This one seems to have walked out of the pages of an Orwell novel.

Rick Scott's 7-7-7 Plan: Florida--LET'S GET TO WORK !!
http://www.rickscottforflorida.com/home/turn-florida-around/rick-scotts-7-step-solution/
The career politicians in Tallahassee have done little to jumpstart our economy. But then again, how can you get our economic wheels in motion when you’ve never balanced a budget, been forced to meet payroll, or created a job?
“Face it, if the career politicians knew how to get us out of this recession, they would have done it already.”
That’s why it’s time for a conservative outsider with real-world business experience to take charge of Florida’s economy. I am the only candidate in this race with a comprehensive plan that will get our fiscal house in order, balance the budget, and create long-term, good-paying jobs.
The plan isn’t complex. In fact, it’s very simple. And it’s common sense.
I’ve created jobs {thousands actually} in the private sector.
As governor, these 7 steps will create 700,000 jobs in 7 years:
1. Implement Accountability Budgeting
2. Reduce Government Spending
3. Enact Regulatory Reform
4. Focus on Job Growth and Retention
5. Invest in World Class State Universities
6. Reduce Property Taxes
7. Phase out the Business Income Tax
“Let’s make Florida the job creation model for the nation.”

Democrat Motto: "Moving America Forward." Towards WHAT?!!
Across the blogosphere, and in the hallowed halls of the far left, I hear Democrats and the media left bemoaning the impending loss of societal and legislative "progress" if the Republicans win big in the upcoming midterm elections. At POLITICO they claim that the Democrat motto is "Moving America Forward."
"Forward" towards WHAT?! America has noticed that the Democrats are moving us towards staggering debt and generational theft.....
--forward to....A new "normal" for the economy that includes unemployment at 10% (actually 17%) and record numbers of Americans on WELFARE, FOOD STAMPS, and other government programs.
--forward to....Federal government control of two of America's big three auto makers (GM and Chrysler) in a move that reeked of economic fascism.
--forward to....A "Stimulus Bill" that only "stimulated" the Democrat Party, and put Americans over a TRILLION dollars (after interest and lost productivity) deeper into debt. Obama admitted a few days ago that "there's no such thing as shovel-ready projects" after pushing the lie for months.
--forward to....Banning all exploratory drilling in American waters while FUNDING Mexican drilling in those same waters and Brazillian deep water drilling with AMERICAN tax dollars!! This cost tens of thousands of American jobs. Two days ago they lifted the ban for political reasons...try getting a PERMIT to drill. LOL! See ya four years from now. :-)
--forward to....Consolidating power in the hands of radical left-wing, unaccountable "Czars" who don't answer to the American people or their representatives in Congress. Obie isn't the first president to have czars, he's just the WORST abuser of that privilege by far!
--forward to....Passing a health care takeover bill (ObamaCare) against the express will of the American people by blatantly and corruptly PURCHASING the votes of hesitant Senators and Representatives.
--forward to....Attempting to pass the Cap and Tax bill which amounts to an HUGE tax hike on an already beleaguered population, with more than 25% either unemployed or underemployed. The federal government wants MORE of your money at a time when you can LEAST afford it.
--forward to....Adjourning Congress to go campaign for re election while PROHIBITING an up or down vote to extend the Bush era tax cuts. THEY HAVE RAISED YOUR TAXES ENORMOUSLY BY THEIR INACTION!!
--forward to....Working to pass "Card Check" legislation that ELIMINATES the secret ballot in union elections. Let's just call it what it is--"Unionization by Intimidation." The President and his union cronies don't care for the secret ballot. And they call themselves "Democrats." We know them as thugs.
--forward to....A "Justice Department" that blatantly ignored voter intimidation against white voters in Philadelphia because the thugs doing the intimidating were members of the "New Black Panthers." They used the Federal government to discriminate against white voters. That's "hope and change" the Dems can believe in, the rest of us can &*%$ off!
--forward to....An administration that cozies up to international pariahs and thugs while snubbing our true allies. Obama, Reid, and Pelosi view Fox News, the Tea Party and talk radio as a bigger threat to America than a nuclear armed Iran. An Iran that we COULD have helped to "fundamentally change" just one year ago. Our inaction spelled the doom of Iranian freedom fighters struggling to overthrow the evil ayatollahs.
If these are sterling examples of "moving forward" and being "progressive", I'll proudly be "regressive for human freedom" any day.
The list of SERIOUS Democrat offenses against the American Constitutional way of life has been long and severe. Their trespasses against the Constitution and our basic liberties threaten our republican, freedom-based way of life in ways we've yet to realize. If you fail to vote to eliminate this existential threat to our way of life YOU will be no better than Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi.
Stick up for America, vote the scoundrels out !!

The Lawyers' Party, by Bruce Walker.
A LAWYER WITH A BRIEFCASE CAN STEAL MORE MONEY THAN A THOUSAND MEN WITH GUNS. -- Vito Corleone
The Democratic Party has become the Lawyers Party .
Barack Obama is a lawyer. Michelle Obama is a lawyer.
Hillary Clinton is a lawyer. Bill Clinton is a lawyer.
John Edwards is a lawyer. Elizabeth Edwards is a lawyer.
Every Democrat nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate).
Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since 1976, except for Lloyd Bentsen, went to law school.
Look at leaders of the Democrat Party in Congress:
Harry Reid is a lawyer. Nancy Pelosi is a lawyer.
The Republican Party is different.
President Bush is a businessman.
Vice President Cheney is a businessman.
The leaders of the Republican Revolution:
Newt Gingrich was a history professor.
Tom Delay was an exterminator. Dick Armey was an economist.
House Minority Leader Boehner was a plastics manufacturer.
The former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is a heart surgeon.
Who was the last Republican president who was a lawyer? Gerald Ford, who left office 31 years ago and who barely won the Republican nomination as a sitting president, running against Ronald Reagan in 1976.
The Republican Party is made up of real people doing real work, who are often the targets of lawyers.
The Democrat Party is made up of lawyers.
Democrats mock and scorn men who create wealth, like Bush and Cheney, or who heal the sick, like Frist, or who immerse themselves in history, like Gingrich.
The Lawyers Party sees these sorts of people, who provide goods and services that people want, as the enemies of America . And, so we have seen the procession of official enemies, in the eyes of the Lawyers Party, grow.
Against whom do Hillary and Obama rail? Pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, hospitals, manufacturers, fast food restaurant chains, large retail businesses, bankers, and anyone producing anything of value in our nation.
This is the natural consequence of viewing everything through the eyes of lawyers. Lawyers solve problems by successfully representing their clients, in this case the American people.
Lawyers seek to have new laws passed, they seek to win lawsuits, they press appellate courts to overturn precedent, and lawyers always parse language to favor their side.
Confined to the narrow practice of law, that is fine. But it is an awful way to govern a great nation. When politicians as lawyers begin to view some Americans as clients and other Americans as opposing parties, then the role of the legal system in our life becomes all-consuming. Some Americans become adverse parties of our very government. We are not all litigants in some vast social class-action suit. We are citizens of a republic that promises us a great deal of freedom from laws, from courts, and from lawyers.
Today, we are drowning in laws; we are contorted by judicial decisions; we are driven to distraction by omnipresent lawyers in all parts of our once private lives. America has a place for laws and lawyers, but that place is modest and reasonable, not vast and unchecked. When the most important decision for our next president is whom he will appoint to the Supreme Court, the role of lawyers and the law in America is too big.
When House Democrats sue America in order to hamstring our efforts to learn what our enemies are planning to do to us, then the role of litigation in America has become crushing.
We cannot expect the Lawyers Party to provide real change, real reform or real hope in America. Most Americans know that a republic in which every major government action must be blessed by nine unelected judges is not what Washington intended in 1789. Most Americans grasp that we cannot fight a war when ACLU lawsuits snap at the heels of our defenders. Most Americans intuit that more lawyers and judges will not restore declining moral values or spark the spirit of enterprise in our economy.
Perhaps Americans will understand that change cannot be brought to our nation by those lawyers who already largely dictate American society and business.
Perhaps Americans will see that hope does not come from the mouths of lawyers but from personal dreams nourished by hard work.
Perhaps Americans will embrace the truth that more lawyers with more power will only make our problems worse.
The United States has 5% of the world's population and 66% of the world's lawyers!! Tort (Legal) reform legislation has been introduced in congress several times in the last several years to limit punitive damages in ridiculous lawsuits such as spilling hot coffee on yourself and suing the establishment that sold it to you and also to limit punitive damages in huge medical malpractice lawsuits. This legislation has continually been blocked from even being voted on by the Democrat Party. When you see that 97% of the political contributions from the American Trial Lawyers Association goes to the Democratic Party, then you realize who is responsible for our medical and product costs being so high!

ANOTHER Assault on our Freedom: The Disclose Act is Back!
After beating back amnesty for illegal aliens in the D.R.E.A.M. Act, get ready for the next full frontal assault on the American way of life. It's called the "Disclose Act", and it limits the participation of corporations in the political process. The Democrats are once again attacking that pesky 1st Amendment. From Friends of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce:

http://www.votervoice.net/Core.aspx?AID=1190&Screen=alert&IssueId=22213&SessionID=%24AID%3d1190%3aSITEID%3d-1%3aVV_CULTURE%3den-us%3aAPP%3dGAC%24
"Despite failing to pass in July, the so-called DISCLOSE Act is now being reconsidered, indicating the level of Congressional leaders' desperation to maintain their political majority.
Aimed squarely at the business community, the so-called DISCLOSE Act would create a thicket of new regulatory requirements in order to gain political advantage in the approaching November elections and to deter American businesses from participating in the political process.
Additionally, House carve-outs and exemptions for the biggest political contributors, including the NRA and unions, make it appear that instead of campaign finance reform, this bill is more of the same with back room deals and politics as usual.
If Congress wants to make the political process more transparent, they should begin by applying those standards to their own negotiations.
Nothing makes Americans angrier than members of Congress who are more concerned about protecting their own jobs than creating new ones for unemployed constituents.
With a second vote expected as soon as Thursday, your Senators need to hear from you on the discriminatory nature of this bill, as well as its obvious partisan intent."
Take action NOW!!

The Democrats are going pass AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS!!
It's called The DREAM ACT, and they want you to pay for the education of the children of illegals.
http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2010/09/adding-dream-act-to-defense-bill-is-another-form-of-amnesty
Aren't we lucky to have Democrats? They have attached it to a defense spending bill, and it seems that now that the Dems are aware of the THRASHING they're going to get at the polls in November, they're doing all of the damage that they can, as quickly as they can.
You had better call your congressmen immediately to put a stop to this insanity!
Isn't it sad that we've reached the point in American history where we're CONTINUOUSLY defending ourselves and our rights as free people from our own damned government?!
