Greetings my fellow Conservatives, RINO’s and liberals hoping to gather more ammunition against your opponents.  It is a great honor for me to join Kristofer in his ongoing fight against the socialistic agenda of the current administration.

Now I understand how the Dutch boy felt as he held back the flood that would destroy him, his family and his town.  Desperation, hopelessness and fear of losing those things most precious to him had to be overwhelming.  However, through perseverance he saved all of them.

We Conservatives are trying to just stop the bleeding away of our freedoms while the liberal hoard finds new ways of destroying this nation.  Electing “moderate” Republicans will not do the trick.  Back in the late 1980’s, we fought the “big tent/moderate” wing of the Republican Party at every turn.  Their leadership discovered that drastic change would not work, so slowly but surely they infiltrated leadership of the Conservative movement and took over.  In doing so, they taught the Democrats how to get their puppets elected by acting like Republicans then using their incumbency to hold on.  Thus the term RINO was born.

Texas Congressional District 17 now has a RINO as our (more…)

Tomorrow American Writes will be publishing the first blog post from someone other than me, The American Writer.

Scott Kimble will be our first American Herald. You can read all about him and what an American Herald is by clicking on the new category at the very top of the page – American Heralds.

I am very glad to welcome Scott. He brings a conservative perspective with a “boots on the ground” experience within the Central Texas political environment, and has been intimately involved for the last year with the Rob Curnock campaign. If his first submission is any indication – you will enjoy Scott’s missives and musings quite a bit!

Scott comes out of the gate on his first post pulling no punches and heading straight between the eyes of (more…)

Constitutional and Conservative Bill Randall is in the runoff on June 22 in North Carolina 13. He’s against a Country Club Republican who is attempting to hide his anti-Tea Party and Pro-Choice leanings.

Constitutional and Conservative Jaynee Germond is running in Oregon 4 against a late-comer rich guy picked by the NRCC, after running for a year against another relatively regular guy in the race. The rich dude just got in and dropped a quarter million into the race. Sound familiar? The primary is tomorrow.

Constitutional and Conservative Jake Towne is in Pennsylvania. Jake is an Independent Constitutional Candidate who wants to represent District 15 – the Lehigh Valley – where my own now-liberal Dad went to school.

Constitutional and Conservative John Dennis is in California 8, the seat Nancy Pelosi holds.

Constitutional and Conservative Donald Strong is in Tennessee; Alex Snitker is in Florida; RJ Harris is in Oklahoma, as is Howard Houchen. And Tony Gentile is in Louisiana.

And these are just a few. US House and Senate Candidates.

I have been spinning my wheels on Constitution-Sovereignty-denying and recent convert to Republican Party Pro-Choicer Bill Flores and I accept now that it’s a futile effort were I to continue writing alone. All it does is take me away from the obligations I have to these people above and their genuinely Constitution-based ideologies. So I won’t be writing alone… (more…)

I had a Texas Congressional District 17 GOP County Chair send me a nice email opining that my post-runoff posts about Bill Flores seemed bitter and not helpful. Bitter for the most part because Bill did not grant me an interview during the primary.

I replied and acknowledged that probably 20% of me is bitter for that reason. Who wouldn’t be? Someone better than me, I guess.

But I wrote this person and told them my bitterness doesn’t come from the lack of an interview.

It comes from the lies I’ve been told and have experienced. And it doesn’t change the facts that are out there and the questions they raise.

I explained it in more direct terms so that this GOP leader would know I had a leg to stand on and proof to boot, but generally I said what lies (more…)

The primary for Bill Flores was a cake-walk…as it should be if you can out-advertise your opponents. But Flores can’t out advertise Chet Edwards.

Case in point: Monday, April 19, (six days after the runoff) Flores had Phil Gramm endorsement commercials running. At the end of the day and the beginning of the next, Edwards made the top of the hour news broadcast in College Station, on the same Radio station Flores was on, because of a $1.5 million grant he helped a local business entity acquire.

Mr. Flores is not only fighting Mr. Edwards’ campaign coffers…he is fighting the many millions in pork Mr. Edwards will be bringing to the district between now and November. Mr. Edwards will easily outspend Mr. Flores. Easily.

And it will all be free advertising. Paid for with your tax dollars.

As Tip O’Neill once said, “Pork pays for itself eventually.”

The rule in advertising is frequency and consistency. Your message has to be often and the same. Couple that with the Tip O’Neill adage (more…)

So the conservative bandwagon dropped a load of hangers-on, IMHO. The Truth doesn’t change just because you stop seeking it. Because you back a candidate, doesn’t mean you stop asking questions. The Texas 17 Tea Parties and other non-Conservative individuals have fallen in line with Bill Flores because their goal is Anybody But Chet – ABC. Let’s call them Alphabet Kids. And if they are as conservative or constitutionally oriented as they claim to be, they’d be railing against Bill in two years if he were to win.

So, the District 17 Tea Parties have failed. Mainly because they have allowed themselves to be co-opted (more…)

Chances are, if you were a “conservative” leader or blogger during the Texas 17 District GOP Primary, you are now a Republican Party myrmidon.

We know that Angie Cox of the Burleson Tea Party is, simply by her comment on this very blog when I made the VERY wrong assumption that she would be a Rob Curnock supporter just before the runoff.

All of the Waco Tea Partiers know that Toby Marie Walker was wooed by the RNC last fall, so we can pretty much count her in.

Richard Clark, owner of nobillfloresforcongress.com, seems to have gone to the dark side. But I think he’s been more of an ABC kind of guy than Conservative in this race (I’m not calling into question his Conservatism…I only think that it is trumped by the ABC movement). (more…)

He barks because we have chickens ruling the roost on Bryan City Council and a bunch of hens clucking in the online comments and Letters to The Editor of The Eagle..

The Brazos Animal Shelter article in the Bryan-College Station Eagle this past Sunday was a well-written piece that exposes the two sides in the ongoing BAS saga.

Demarcated at the point of their awareness of reality, the opposing sides of the pivot are represented by the ignorant on one hand, and the informed on the other.

Kudos to Cassie Smith and Dave McDermand for their work. I was at the Shelter when they were spending the day, and I’m glad they saw what they saw and reported it accurately.

As someone who has volunteered at the Shelter nearly one thousand hours (more…)

So, this is Bill Flores’ airplane, which he took delivery on at Christmastime 2009 (Delivery was scheduled for 23 December according to City of Bryan records), a week or so after he re-an

nounced his candidacy for Texas 17.

It is housed at Coulter Field in a hangar he had built pretty quickly after City Council approved and Mayor Conlee signed the lease on 21 September,  a week after Flores signed it. Bill had some very valid points in the lease negotiation, and had the city staff on their toes as they worked to make this happen. He’s obviously read a LOT of contracts!

The lease itself is interesting and typical for the hangar. In essence, the person who wants to build it gets permission from the city, then builds it, then gifts it to (more…)

A good friend of mine happens to be an Assistant District Attorney somewhere in the great State of Texas, and he has confirmed for me that there is no assumption of privacy when one leaves a voicemail – and particularly on a general mailbox of a company.

So, the recordings John Flores left for me on the general phone number for my company, which I referenced in this post, will now be made public on that post.

Just thought you should know, and a new post telling you that would remind you to go back and listen to them since it’s been a month since I posted that item and said I would see what the law says before I shared the voicemails.
