OBAMA PSALM 2010

February 6, 2010 by Dee

Woody, a high school classmate, sent this to me today – know most of you will enjoy it.  Dee

Obama is the shepherd I did not want. 
He leadeth me beside the still factories. 
He restoreth my faith in the Republican party. 
He guideth me in the path of unemployment for his party’s sake. 
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the bread line, 
I shall fear no hunger, for his bailouts are with me. 
He has anointed my income with taxes, 
My expenses runneth over. 
Surely, poverty and hard living will follow me all the days of my life, 
And I will live in a mortgaged home forever. 
I am glad I am American, 
I am glad that I am free. 
But I wish I was a dog ….. 
And Obama was a tree.

 

POINTING THE FINGER OF BLAME!

Talk About Fickle Fingers...

Obama's finger points to everyone but himself.

Check out this cartoon – from the Center For Individual Freedom. 

It’s point-on! 

MOORE TEA MEMBER LETTERS…

January 31, 2010 by Dee

This is a new post.  We get lots and lots of letters – like Perry Como of old – rest his soul.  We’ll post them here and on a new page shortly.  Meanwhile, here is one from two MTC members…

The election in Massachusetts has encouraged and emboldened us all.  Yet there is some news of coming events that potentially disturbs us about the Tea Party.  We’ve heard there is to be a national Tea Party rally with tickets being sold at $350-$500, and Sarah Palin is being paid $150,000 to speak there.  If this is true, it tarnishes the grass roots image and appeal of the movement.  It puts the Tea Party in the same circle of mercenary self-service as the Democrats and Republicans.

We feel that the message of the Tea Party must remain clear, concise and demonstrably strong.  That message should have three components only-lower taxes, lower government spending and strong national defense.  Other issues like gun control and abortion should be downplayed and avoided as much as possible.The Tea Party must not become arrogant or show even a hint of becoming a third party, lest it legitimize the mockery of the left wing loons, split the coalition, defeat its own purpose and wind up with excessive years of Pelosi, Reid and Obama. 

Hopefully the Tea Party will bring the Republican Party, Independents and moderate Democrats together in a coalition that will result in a resounding victory in November and a Republican President in 2012.

Let’s stay focused on what got us here and avoid the path of lunacy that both political parties have traveled in recent years. 

Thanks for all you do,

MOORE TEA Friends

MOORE TEA CITIZENS’ TOWN HALL MEETING

January 25, 2010 by Dee

 

Town Hall

You came to the Town Hall, you spoke and we heard each other.  About 200 patriots attended our 1/23 Town Hall meeting at the Village Hall in Pinehurst from 1 -4 pm.  We heard from numerous speakers on topics like Health Care and Cap & Trade in special segments.  And we talked with each other about many other topics.  Music from the Ingram Family Band and YouTubes punctuated the afternoon.  There was enthusiasm to spare, and plenty of tea (!), coffee and cookies for all.  

It’s the first Town Hall for MOORE TEA, and there will be MOORE TO COME!  Join MOORE TEA and let’s get together – events will be plentiful this year all over Moore County.  Send your name, address, phone number and email address to us today! 

WE WILL REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER!!!!

 

About Healthcare…Sign The Pledge!

January 21, 2010 by Dee

Here is a new website – it’s called www.repealit.org.  

CITIZEN PLEDGE

“I hereby pledge that if any federal health care takeover is passed in 2010, I will support – with my time, money, and vote – only candidates who pledge to support its repeal and replacement with real reforms that lower health care costs without growing government.”

Linda Health Alert 

Please Read It and Then Make Calls!

 

Dear Friends of MOORE TEA,

The subject is STILL HEALTHCARE!

We are attaching a somewhat long ALERT from Linda Jarrett (Legislation) to let our members know what’s coming next and suggest what we might do to fight it.  We are sorry it has to be long – the list of people to contact is long because we’re not sure who the Representatives and Senators are who might be approachable at this time.  It’s all in flux, and as you know secrecy reigns in DC.

So please take to the phones again – fax if you prefer – but let them know your response to the lack of attention to what Americans are demanding – KILL THE BILL AND START OVER.

Thanks, friends, and we’ll hope to see many of you at the Town Hall we’re holding on Saturday, January 23rd at the Village Hall.  Call us (910-783-8340) or email if you wish to attend.  Capacity is 200, and they are strict about enforcing that number.  We cannot let you in if you did not sign up.  Sorry about that!

HE DID IT! SCOTT BROWN HAS OPENED THE DOOR!

January 20, 2010 by Dee

WE CELEBRATE WITH VOTERS IN MASSACHUSETTS AND WITH CONGRESSIONAL CONSERVATIVES.  ONE DONE, MANY TO COME!

One of the best quotes on the connection of Scott Brown’s election and health care reform.

Ben Smith quoting Senator Jim Webb (Virginia) on Politico.  Thanks, Ken.

“In many ways the campaign in Massachusetts became a referendum not only on health care reform but also on the openness and integrity of our government process. It is vital that we restore the respect of the American people in our system of government and in our leaders. To that end, I believe it would only be fair and prudent that we suspend further votes on health care legislation until Senator-elect Brown is seated.” 

Amen to that!

BUSH OR BHO?

January 13, 2010 by Dee

If George Bush was an idiot…

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how he inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes? 

If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved? 

If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan’s holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have approved? 

If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia , would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent “Austrian language,” would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current in their income taxes, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to “Cinco de Cuatro” in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment?

If George W. Bush had misspelled the word “advice” would you have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as proof of what a dunce he is?

If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he’s a hypocrite? 

If George W. Bush’s administration had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan, causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get what happened on 9-11?

If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans , would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?

If George W. Bush had created the position of 32 Czars who report directly to him, bypassing the House and Senate on much of what is happening in America, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?

If George W Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had referred to the 58 states that make up these United States, would you have thought him “geographically challenged”?

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can’t think of anything? Don’t worry. He’s done all this in 10 months — so you’ll have three years and two months to come up with an answer.
