My Duaghter is named after George Bailey :)

It's A Wonderful Life is on Christmas Eve on NBC

I have "I'ts A Wonderful Life" and "A Christmas Story"
on DVD, guess it's time to get them out a watch 'em.

hey Donn did you see your wonderful rep Tanner just got back from a deligate trip and he stayed for 3 days at 500.00 a night hotel, had 128.00 per day per diam and only about 20 or so of our elected officials went, tax dollars hard at work, good thing he is retiring.

Jay, I didn't, thanks for the info. Yeah his retirement alone could go a long way to reducing the federal deficit, LOL ;)

There about to stand again! We have got to have people that are going to defend the Constitution. Alot of congress dont even know what they are swearing by. Thats Scarey!

Ordinary men need to continue to stand up against tyranny. Is the "Tea Party" going to be the "party" to unseat the Democrat Party next year? As a Navy man, I remember my oath of enlistment. "Support and Defend the constitution." Go "Tea Party!"

Donn, Thanks for passing this on. I hope it will hit home to all who read it. Semper Fi

Jeff, No problem. Thanks for your service!

Mark Twain also said A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes.Al Gore should have known lol

Thomas, I like that Twain quote too.

Anyone happen to catch what party the 2 biggest earmarks came from on the grossly huge spending bill for 2010?

I saw earmarks from both parties even though they are promoting them as significantly fewer earmarks than before and still spending 1 trillion dollars. Getting back to the poll, I think this poll shows the trend of voters. Many are distrustful of the established Republican and Democrat parties and will focus on the candidate, not the specific party affiliation. If a Tea Party could be organized from the movement into an established political force, it could impact real change.

Glad you posted this, TN was one of the first states to do this. TN also was one of the first states to pass the Firearms freedom act. Of Course the Feds sent letters saying they would not honor it. What does that mean? I think everyone knows in the back of there minds. Donn we need more people like you, how far will the Feds let states go with this is the question? Considering they don't follow the Constitution anyway.

TN 10th Amendment on Twitter http://twitter.com/TN10thAmendment

To bad most people just vote down party lines. Most people think voting any other way is a wasted vote. In my OP there are no wasted votes.

Donn have you heard of Tennesseans for Liberty, they meet at Gander MT. in Jackson about once a month.Would be good way to get your name out there. Haven't been inawhile becasue of distance. This is what came of the Ron Paul meetup group that some of you may have attended. Here's there link. Any of you who want to do more then complain, the time is now. Stand up before you can't anymore.

Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than live as slaves. ... See More

Phillip, thanks for the information I will repost with a revised address and instructions.

This happen to me last year.

Time to get your face out there..... People are ready for REAL change....

Well if the Republicans retain control of the TN State legislature, then they can change the congressional districts to maybe they all have Republican majoritys.
