The Big Picture & What Really Matters

The grassroots movement is for real - it is not Astroturf. Astroturf cannot grow because it is artificial - but this political movement is alive and well, and growing! The latest polling data shows that almost 65% of Americans, considered to be “likely voters” in the 2010 election, want to vote out “all” incumbents.

I am proud of all of those people that are involved in the Tea party events and in the displays of patriotic zeal - BUT it cannot stop there. We cannot be satisfied with marching on Washington or staging a larger rally. We cannot have as our goal the establishment of new patriotic groups - if we are only to act like the current collection of para-political groups. We must see the Big Picture and decided What Really Matters.

Now is the time for every individual involved in this grassroots movement to step up to the plate of responsibility and do the following things:

1. Identify every Democrat that has become a liberal, a progressive, a socialist or a fascist in their political beliefs and vote them out;

2. Identify every Republican that is a liberal, a moderate, or a RINO [republican in name only] and vote them out;

3. Support true conservatives that will protect the Constitution, defend our borders and return real American values to the Senate and the House.

I want to encourage every political group to stop saying “we do not get involved in primary elections” or “we do not endorse candidates.” Find a true conservative candidate and endorse them, work for them and help to get them elected - make a difference!

If you do not, you will have the same collection of elected officials in 2010 as you do now - nothing will change - everything will grow worse… and you will be left with only the memory of the last tea party to talk about.

“We tried” will not be good enough. We must do better! We must take back our nation from “big government politicians,” that have made a career out of Washington D.C.

We Can Do Better!            We Must Do Better!             We Will Do Better
