My Prayer For America On This Midterm Election Day

I have never been more excited and scared as I prepare to go vote on this midterm election day. So much is at stake.

However the American people happen to vote, there are going to be those who will be very disappointed. I'm not worried about the Republicans/Conservatives/Moderates/Libertarians- we are a far more rational, gentler, kinder group of people. We survived 8 years of Barack Obama, without giving him much flak, we will survive again if it doesn't go our way. We will suffer, yes, but the majority of us will remain civil, and respectful.  Unlike the liberals. Even my friends and colleagues have been hateful.  The #resistors. The #bluewave folk. I have never seen such antipathy and vitriol.  We didn't treat Obama the way they have been treating Donald Trump. They are so blinded by their hatred they are unable to see the Truth- that this country is doing very well right now, in spite of Trump being thwarted at every turn. It's the lefties that I worry about if there is a #redwave. They have shown a penchant for violence. ANTIFA for one.  I have also seen the myriad of videos of Trump supporters being bullied, harrassed, and physically attacked.

So this is my prayer:

Dear GOD,

Please remove the bitterness and hatred from the hearts of liberals. Please help them to see the light. If this is a lesson they need to learn, please don't let those of us who know the Truth suffer for their foolishness.

Please keep this country safe and prosperous.

God Bless America, and those that love her.

May we prevail.

PAC creativity- The Caution Fraud Ahead Truck Following Dem Gavin Newsom's Bus

The award for most creativity in politics goes to Californian's For Accountability- the conservative PAC which is backing small businessman John Cox, Republican, over current Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, Democrat, for the governorship of California.

Run by Jesse Rojas, a Mexican immigrant who came to the U.S. with his parents when he was 11, Rojas has been following Gavin Newsom's bus everywhere it goes.

Californians For Accountability's statement:

In a call for new leadership to address the state’s affordability crisis and other worsening problems, Californians for Accountability PAC is now following Democratic gubernatorial candidate Gavin Newsom with a van warning of “Lost Jobs and Higher Taxes Ahead.” 

Jesse Rojas, President of Californians for Accountability PAC, said voters should put the state on a better path this Election Day and support John Cox for Governor.

“Gavin Newsom has served as Lieutenant Governor for the last eight years and California has become less affordable, taxes have gone up, and dangerous criminals have been released onto our streets,” Rojas said. “John Cox knows what it’s like to struggle and he knows how to run a business and create jobs. Working Californians can count on John Cox to protect taxpayers and public safety and present new solutions to our state’s challenges.”

Videos of tailing Newsom's bus on his Twitter page.

It just makes me laugh.

His website is CautionFraudAhead.

Good luck John Cox!

Republican Congress More Popular Than Obama - Gallup Poll

According to a recent Gallup Poll, the newly elected GOP congress have a higher approval rating than President Barack Obama- 42% to 39%.  Okay, so that's not much, but it's something.

They better do a good job, or we're toast in two years.

Tim Scott's Response When Asked How He Can Stand For The Poor And Be A Republican

So, Tim Scott, a black Republican senator from South Carolina, was asked by MSNBC's Thomas Roberts:

 “You say you’re concerned about kids that are growing up in the wrong zip code and, like yourself, had a tough start on the way out. But if we look at agencies that are following some of your voting records, they have concern. And the NAACP has given you an ‘F’ on their annual scorecard.”

Regarding that 'F' grade, Scott responded:

“Let's just ask ourselves, if we look back over the history when Congress was controlled by the Democrats for 40 consecutive years, if we look at the result of that control, what has happened in black America? We saw greater poverty.

“[I]f I have an ‘F’ on the NAACP’s scorecard, it's because I believe that progress has to be made and the government is not the answer for progress. I was a kid growing up in poverty. I had a mentor who was a Chick-fil-A operator … who taught me that the brilliance of the American economy happens through business ownership and entrepreneurial spirit."

Scott credits the Republican Party and support at the local level for helping poor people like him become success stories.

He believes a "good education" and a "strong work ethic" are the stepping stones to success, and that big government and the policies of the left keep people stuck in poverty.

I love Scott's brilliant response.

GOP Senator Guillory Takes On Mary Landrieu For Louisiana Governorship

Elbert Guillory, a black senator from Louisiana, was Republican before he became a Democrat in 2007, then switched back to the Republican party in 2013. Last year, in a powerful video addressing his "brothers and sisters in the black community" he explained what motivated him to make the switch.

Guillory has his sights set on the Louisiana governorship in 2105, and he is taking on current Governor Mary Landrieu with another powerful video ad by FreeAtLast PAC. Filmed in Opelousas, Louisiana, on a street a few blocks from where he grew up, Guillory talks about how Landrieu promised to be a champion for the black community 18 years ago when she first ran for senate in 1996, and yet nothing has changed. In fact, he believes they are worse.

Here are snippets from the campaign ad, once again targeting the black voter.

“Our communities are poorer than they were in 1996. Our schools continue to fail children." “And our jails are filled with young black men who should be at home being fathers.”
 “Meanwhile Mary Landrieu lives in a $2 million mansion on Capitol Hill.”
“While you scrounge together food stamps to buy kool aid, she sips champagne at cocktail parties. While you dig through the couch looking for gas money, she flies around in private jets funded by taxpayer dollars.”

“But Mary Landrieu knows that she doesn’t have to do anything for our community, because no matter what she does, 95 percent of us will line up to vote for her. Every. Single. Time.”

Watch the video on YouTube here.

If I lived there, I know who I would be voting for.

Good luck Senator Guillory!

Sen Guillory, D-La Switches Back To Republican Party

I was surprised when Louisiana Democratic Senator Elbert Guillory criticized fellow Senator Karen Carter Peterson for claiming Republicans were racist for opposing Obamacare. But it turns out he was actually a Republican prior to switching parties in 2007, although he continued to vote conservatively as a Democrat.  However, fed up after 6 years, he just announced he was rejoining the Republican party. At a conference in Baton Rouge, where he was given the Frederick Douglass Award, he said:

As of this day, I join Frederick Douglass as a Republican. Today the party of disappointment has moved away from the majority of Louisiana. They have moved away from traditional values of most Americans. They have left us behind on crucial issues like abortion, vouchers, Second Amendment rights, union control of public jobs, school prayer, family issues.

Their support of dependency over self-reliance, of everything but traditional marriage, of abortion on demand, their policies have encouraged the high teen birth rates, high school drop out rates, high incarceration rates and very high unemployment rates.

Our self-initiative and self-reliance are sacrificed in exchange for votes for the party of disappointment.

The list of disappointments is long…the lies and cover-up at Benghazi, the IRS harassing the tea party and wiretapping and spying on reporters.

Louisiana has not had a black Republican senator since the Reconstruction Era years (1865 to 1877).

Apparently, Karen Carter Peterson's comments were a catalyst for his decision to part ways.

"The accusations of racism this week certainly helped push me over the edge. I thought that they were over the edge." "It just showed me just how far out of tune I was, I am, with the Democrat Party."

He filed his papers to switch the same day of Peterson's comments.

Naturally, the Democratic Party lashed out, calling it political opportunism.

"This move isn't surprising given Guillory's record of saying one thing to his constituents and then voting another way," Stephen Handwerk, executive director of the Louisiana Democratic Party, said in a statement Friday.

"He should do the right thing and step down from his seat immediately since he has chosen to abandon the Democratic Party values that the voters elected him to represent."

He will remain a "full-fledged member" of  the Legislative Black Caucus, although he will now be the only Republican.

Welcome back Senator Guillory, although with his conservative voting record he was actually a DINO.

Post Election Day Poem- 2012

This poem made the rounds in 2008 when Barack Obama won his first four. 

Seems fitting this time, as well.

No Hard Feelings...to the Democrats

The election day is over,

The talking is done.

My party lost,

your party won.

So let us be friends,

Let arguments pass. 

I'll hug my elephant, 

You kiss your ass.

Biden- Republicans "Will put y'all back in chains!"

Yes, straight from idiot Joe Biden's mouth. And this is the V.P. 

What a great fit for our commander in chief.
