I apologize for my recent torpor. My latest blog was months ago, and the press and stress of the '10 elections had my energy and attention. I just woke up from a Darlene Dinner, and was suddenly seized by a need to communicate.
My thanks to all of the "Seeds of Freedom" members who all last year , donated time and contributed money to defeat the Progressives. Our country is better and healthier for our effort.
Having said that, I must strenuously implore that we not "rest" for long. The battle to reverse the Socialist tendencies of many of our elected officials is just begun...WE won the first skirmish!
Please continue to be informed. Please read Hayek's The Road to Serfdom. Please join the Heritage Society, Please routinely read www.AmericanThinker. You must be armed with factual "talking points", and take every opportunity to inject them in dialogue with your friends and acquaintences. Win converts one at a time.
In the 2010 elections the tea-party candidates won the day with a few(very few) exceptions. Beltway elitism exists on both sides of the aisle, and we have only to look at Lamar's record to see who should be challenged next cycle. We need to consider the teaparty a muscular, virile, alert, conservative helpmate to a doddering, Patrician GOP.
You say, "what about that O'Donnell loss"? What she did was show the GOP that teaparty conservatives are not political prostitutes, thats all! Dr. Faustus did OK in the short run...but later!!!??? Next time an even more qualified GOP will win.
Please get behind "Conservatives on the Move". Our future is tied to youth and Hispanics, Blacks, and Gays, all peaceful forms of Religion that respect The Constitution(Sharia need not apply).
Seeds of Freedom will re-group in January, and will be once again concerned with helping conservatives get in office. Conservatives on the move" and the teaparty are an important part of the long term and short term plan to help the GOP.
Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to all,
Pray for the Republic,
WD

My Newest Political Rant
Every day I hear and read current events. The news is littered with stories of politicians and political races in various parts of the country. I have an addiction to politics. Maybe better stated, I have an intense need and desire to have things run my way.
I believe that a lot of politicians in Washington don't care what I think. I don't think they care what you think. I think they say and do what will keep them in power. This is not what our framers had in mind. I believe our constitutional framers had the exact opposite in mind. They fought to separate us from a tyrannical monarchy. A monarch run by a king that wanted (among other things) to over tax them. Our representatives would painstakingly leave their farms and business to represent their states. When they completed their service, they went home. Not on a book tour. Our forefathers didn't like being shafted by the monarchy and a few of them stood up for their rights. They stood up for OUR rights.
Unfortunately, in the last century, politicos have determined that they could gain more power by shafting segments of the population and by trying to make everything fair. They thought that if I make one group weaker, I can help another. If I over tax the wealthy, I can give it to the poor. This doesn't work. Any politician that thinks it will work needs to look towards Europe.
Just now I am beginning to see our citizens again stand up and say "We aren't going to take this!"
In my short lifetime, I have never seen anything like this. There hasn't been this kind of uproar in the modern American political world.
I think it is great that we shake both sides of the aisle and tell our representatives that if you don't do what is right for the country and me, your ass is going home. No more RINO'S. No more mid road leftist. I have yet to see someone run a campaign touting that they supported the "Stimulus Package".
One more thing... to all the people in the media trying to paint one side of the aisle prettier than the other, you will be out of business too if you keep misrepresenting the truth. And don't call me a racist, it is sooo last year. That's all the time I have to rant today.

"Seeds of Freedom" meeting of May 23...Notes
Sunday, May 23rd, the "Seeds of Freedom" Group met at Nero's in Green Hills.There were 22 members, guests and candidates present.
Chuck Self reported the finances, and we are OK...no assesments so far.
Chuck reported on the initiative we plan to mount, a serious phone blitz to benefit "our" selected conservative candidates. He will obtain the names and numbers of people who at some time, have voted conservatively. Our job will be to gently remind them that the liberals are driving the bus over the cliff, and that thier vote can literally help to salvage the Republic.
We also discussed the need for trained poll workers from our Group.More later on that at the next meeting.
The Group's speaker was Dr. Terry Sawyer, who spoke on his epiphany to conservatism. A very educational and moving vignette, appreciated by all, and perhaps, helpful to the attending candidates.
The candidates who spoke were: David Hall, a General Contractor, running to secure the GOP nomination to run against Jim Cooper. Jeff Hartlein, an educator, also vying for the chance to run against Cooper, spoke to the group.
Hall, Hartlein, and Spivak are competing against each other
in the Primary, in an 8 person GOP field, to run against the Lying Jim Cooper.
James Chesser, Major in the TNSG, and an attorney, running to secure the GOP nomination to run against Tn. Senator Henry spoke. Chesser is running against Dr.Steven Dickerson in the GOP primary.
All candidates hae a message that was well recieved. All are family men with family values. Hall, Hartlein, Spivac , all were deemed far better that Cooper.
James Chesser spoke with passion about his desire to improve Tennesee from the botom up, and we all agreed.
Notable in the talks, was the lack of rancor BETWEEN the competing candidates, a great sign that all of our eyes are indeed on the ball to get back our country!
We discussed a media boycott I'd like to start for the 1st week of July. MSM print and broadcast and periodical...e.g. Newsweek, NYT. Go face book, you-tube viral, hurt the liars and half- truthers. They were complicit in getting BO elected, and still lie, calling the tea-partiers racists and libertarians. The Times casually "outed" a plan by the DOD to gather(spy) information to help in the war on terror just this week.
We discussed getting a group to spend a long weekwnd in Arizona the last weekwnd in July. Tucson, maybe the Chihuahua mountains..drinks by the pool, hiking, golf, helping the Arizona economy!
I'm thinking about bumper art saying "Socialism Destroys"
Ambition/Spirit/Self-Reliance
VOTE REPUBLICAN
Would you show it?
Next Meeting 20 June, 5:00 Nero's
Pray for the Republic!

Reasons to support Mike Turner for Re-election
State representative Mike Turner is running against Charles Williamson for a 3rd or th term as Tennesee representative in the 51st Congressional District of Tennessee. Our "Seeds of Freedom" group does not care for his liberal agenda, and plan to work for his defeat in November. We like his conservative opponent, Charles Williamson, a(very small)conservative businessman.
In a spirit of fairness, I feel that I should enumerate, for those readers who may have Socialist-Progressive leanings, why they may wish to re-elect Mr. Turner...I am virtually certain that the balanced press(Tennessean) we have here will also present these issues, so if this is redundant, I apologise.
Here a a few of Mr.Turner's choices:
1.Supported Drivers licenses for illegal immigrants.
2.State income tax is a GOOD idea.
3.Saw fit to label anyone who opposed Obama's health care bill "RACIST".
4.Voted on May 24 AGAINST a resolution by the Tennessee House to support
Arizona's bill to protect thier state from illegal aliens.(The resolution PASSED
by a better than 2:1 vote). He said he did'nt want the state involved.
5.Being a UNION GUY,you can probably count on him if the Card Check issue becomes
a state issue.
6.I admit to guessing now, but we can probably expect him to LOVE some form of
Energy Tax.
I'm not too much enamored by Mr. Turner, but those who think they may like his politics deserve to get a snapshot of the above. It's only fair!
