My Experience in the 2010 Elections: Tim Griffin for Congress


Real Citizenship Practical Steps for Making an Impact on Your CultureI'm back!
I was away for a while working on a campaign, but my "little vacation" is now over. We were holding a Student Project (a student volunteer, grass-roots campaiging event) for Tim Griffin (latest campaign ad below), who was running for U.S. Congress in Arkansas, in the 2nd Congressional District, and it was our job to help get this man elected.






His opponent was Joyce Elliott, AR state senator.... (I would show the video of her latest ad, but it has been debunked by so many entities that I might get in trouble for spreading lies if I posted it.) 

It was a long and hard race, and I was glad to be able to help during election week. Tim Grifin is a solid candidate, and he had a ROCK SOLID campaign. It was an "honor and pleasure to campaign for him" (That "quote" was from a rap that two of the students working on the Student Project created...I will have to figure out a way to get it on the blog. Stay posted!)


There were many mountains to climb for Tim Griffin, not to mention the fact that he was running in a district that had not been won by a republican in decades!

They walked for hours, going door to door, and getting the word out about Tim Griffin and his message. They made thousands of calls everyday. They gave everything they had inside to help put Tim into office. We knew the importance of this race, and we did what we could to win.

Our efforts were not in vain. Tim Griffin won by over twenty points. We helped to make a difference in AR, and in America.

But we still have to make sure that the candidates we put into office PRACTICE WHAT THEY PREACH. Hold them to their word, keep them on their toes.

Take a stand, and make sure that they take a stand for you.

ROCK ON AMERICA!

Mithoughts on the November 2010 Elections


As we come nearer election week, everyone has a very important question on their minds:


The Conservative's Handbook: Defining the Right Position on Issues from A to ZWhat do I think about the upcoming elections?
…Okay, maybe not.


But regardless of your deepest
thoughts on the subject, I am going to tell you my thoughts on these November 2010 Elections, but with my usual El Pensador twist. I am going to give the hecklers a hard time, and the apathetic non-voters a "Shame on you!"



If we EVER hope to "Take Back America" from the leftist ideology, with all its lovely socialism and miraculous "share the wealth via distribution from the few to the masses" philosophy, we MUST take a stand this November!


For far too long we have sat by and let the progressives take away our nation progressively (ironic isn't it?). It's time we stand up and fight to take it back. There is FAR TOO MUCH at stake, and there is far too much to lose by doing nothing. This could very well be the most important election our nation has faced. We are at a very critical point, and if we sit by this time, the results could be disastrous.


But let me give a word of warning to those who DO sit by, and think it not a big dealas well
those who
don't think there is a good enough candidate for them. SHAME ON YOU!!!



There will NEVER be a perfect candidate. After all, Jesus doesn't run for office; it's sad, but true. If you are looking for a perfect candidate, who lines up perfectly with EVERY SINGLE ISSUE you have, you are in for disappointment almost every single time. And if you think that, because a candidate might not be "perfect," you just won't support them, then you are just like the conservatives who stayed home in '08, when we lost the Congress to the liberals.


THE CONSERVATIVES are the reason that "ObamaCare," "The Obama Stimulus Plan," and the "MACHO DEFICIT" exist today, because they stood by and did NOTHING! Don't blame the liberals—it's OUR FAULT.


Now let me clarify something before you all get uptight: we shouldtake a stand for the best (or at least better) candidate, and we should be careful who we support in elections. But at the same time, if there is an obvious (or at least somewhat significant) difference between two candidates, you have to vote for SOMEONE. Maybe you only have a choice between "the lesser of two evils," and maybe neither of them is really the best for our nation. But ONE OF THEM IS GOING TO WIN REGARDLESS,so you must make a choice.


You may not like it, but it still stands true: someone is going to win, so you might as well try to help out the better candidate. Yes, we should stand for high ideals, but at the same time, we can't sit by with a righteous smug, and let our nation fall into ruin.
One more thing to keep in mind:
If your candidate wins, keep him accountable! Make sure he or she actually does what he promises, and practices what he preaches during his campaign. If they don't, KICK 'EM OUT, and replace that candidate in the next election with someone who WILL!


That's all for now…Just remember how important this November is! TAKE A STAND—BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!


*Rock on America!*

Quote of the Day: James A. Garfield

"The people are responsible for the character of their Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless, and corrupt, it is because the poeple tolerate ignorance, recklessness, and corruption. If it be intelligent, brave, and pure, it is because people demand these high qualities to represent them in the national legislature."
- President James Garfield


............Makes sense don't you think?
