[Peninsula-Patriots] An open letter to Mitt Romney

This was taken from "Patriot News". It is worth the read.

I am writing to voice the concerns of many good Americans today. You have some monumentally important choices coming up. The first of which is the decision on your Vice President, followed by further campaign direction, debate preparation and strategy. Please listen to the American people for time is running out. I am hoping you learned something from John McCain's abortion of a presidential run and will instead be a bold candidate who will actually make a stand. Our country is currently under attack by an anti-American Chicago thug who slithered into office under the premise of hope and change. Though he swore to uphold our laws and Constitution, the last three years of obamanation have been horrific for most of us as our Constitution has been trampled or ignored. Czars, tax-cheats, union goons, and other extreme leftists have been appointed to positions of power. Free enterprise and capitalism have been denigrated and maligned, causing astronomical misery for the working and unemployed alike. obama has bailed out unions and supporters while real workers suffer. We now have fewer individuals entering the workforce than those beginning to suckle on the teat of government welfare and disability programs. Our religion is under pressure from the White House and far-left cronies that spit on the Christian foundations established by the Founders. Our national sovereignty is eroded by our supposed Commander-in-Chief as he has reduced our weapon stockpiles drastically, all the while bowing (literally and figuratively) to leaders of foreign lands. This man whom you hope to replace (and better if the American dream is to survive) may as well have put a bullet in Border Patrol Brian Terry himself as he now covers up his administration's crimes. Related to this, our nation's boarders are nothing but lines on a map as border guard numbers are reduced and illegal aliens are allowed to invade our cities. These illegals even include multiple relatives of obama himself. Your opponent was raised by Communists and has no understanding of the American Dream, our nation's exceptional history or even basic economics. Indoctrinated into the teachings of Saul Alinski, he feels we have grown too big and must be cut down to size. At every step, he undercuts our foundations in order to destroy our country and rebuild as a socialist utopia. Obamacare was just the beginning. Our great land has an exponentially growing debt, ballooning more under this President than under the rest combined and it is an intentional effort to overburden the system based on the radical plans of the 1960s (read about the intentions of the founders of ACORN). While this man pushes progressivism, socialized medicine, abortions, and spreads our wealth, we cry out for leadership; not a smile and a handshake. You must be bold, Mr. Romney.

Hello!  Please forward this message to your friends!  We are making GREAT progress across Virginia, but we NEED YOUR HELP to be successful!
 
Dear Williamsburg Patriot ,
 
 
Thank you for your continued support and those who came out last week!  This week we meet at the same location as the Williamsburg Historic Triangle Tea Party Patriots starting at 4 PM!  We know you are concerned about the future of economic freedom, limited government and taxes here in Virginia. Come out and enjoy the company of fellow Americans for Prosperity supporters every Monday evening at your local Williamsburg library and help us make a difference!
 
Americans for Prosperity has been working hard across the nation to educate individuals on the importance of limited government, economic freedom and the negative impact of higher taxes. I was fortunate to have been part of the AFP team deployed to Wisconsin last month. We spent over a week working tirelessly to educate Wisconsin citizens on the issues and we were very successful with our concentrated effort there. We were successful due to the help and dedication of our local Wisconsin AFP members. It was the help from local citizens, just like you, who made the difference in our being able to cover the entire state to share the truth about the success of the budget reforms that were working in Wisconsin. We succeeded in educating Wisconsin citizens on the importance of economic freedom and limited government, now it's time to bring those lessons to Virginia.

It is critical we educate Virginia citizens on the issues we face here in Virginia. We are counting on your help in order to accomplish this task!
Will you join us? We have reserved a meeting room for a weekly phone bank every week through the end of August and we will be continuing into the fall. We start phone banking at 6:30 PM and each week we are watching one segment of the award winning DVD series "Slaying the Green Dragon" which discusses and unmasks the threat of radical environmentalism to our society. We also have refreshments available.
 
While you may phone bank from home, coming out to at least one training will help you become much more comfortable with the process. It is EASY and does make a DIFFERENCE! 

Here is the schedule:

DATE TIME
Location Room

**THIS MONDAY:  Monday, July 30, 4:15 PM James City County Library 7770 Croaker Rd. Community Room
Monday, August 6 6:15 PM Williamsburg Library 515 Scotland St.  Room C
Monday, August 13 6:15 PM Williamsburg Library 515 Scotland St.  Room C
Monday, August 20 6:15 PM Williamsburg Library 515 Scotland St. Room C
Monday, August 27 4:15 PM James City County Library 7770 Croaker Rd. CMTE
 
If you want to be involved but phone banking does not interest you, will you consider assisting us in neighborhood canvassing or would you be willing to attend a weekend event in the area with me? I cover an area from Suffolk to James City County and would greatly appreciate YOUR help! AFP is making a difference, but we need your help to be successful here in Virginia.
For more information, please contact me directly: Melody Himel Scalley (703) 258-4200 or mscalley@afphq.org
Thank you for all that you do!

Chilling.  I hope this guy is wrong, but it doesn't sound like it.
Ted

READ AND SEND TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW! THIS IS MORE THAN FRIGHTENING!!
 

  
 
Obama's Second Term Transformation Plans 
 
      
 
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860. This statement is not hyperbole. If Barack Obama is re-elected the United States will never be the same, nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind. 
 
The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obama's first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of "transforming America" in his second term regardless of which political party controls Congress. That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders. 
 
The most significant accomplishment of Obama's first term is to make Congress irrelevant. Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and, in a second term, a potential dictatorial presidency. 
 
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in an Obama worshipping stupor, a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch. 
 
The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration. This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently write.  
 
For example, in the 2,700 pages of 
ObamaCare there are more than 2,500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services. There are more than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they "shall" do something and more than 200 times when they "may" take at their sole discretion some form of regulatory action. On 139 occasions, the law mentions that the "Secretary determines." In essence one person, appointed by and reporting to the president, will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014. 
 
The 
same is true in the 2,319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by fiat the nation's financial, banking and investment sectors. The bill also creates new agencies, such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, not subject to any oversight by Congress. This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates. 
 
Additionally, the Obama administration has, through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers, created laws out of whole cloth. The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress. The same is true of the Energy and Interior Departments among many others.  
 
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress. The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages. 
 
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress.  
 
Additionally, Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them. His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145 Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style political tactics. 
 
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists. 
 
The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings
 as all spending must be approved by them. However, once re-elected, Barack Obama, as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics, would not only threatengovernment shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican controlled Congress to surrender to his demands,thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints.  
 
Further, this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders, e.g. the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium, as well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress. The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history. In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election.  
 
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law, a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution? No one. Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people. 
 
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the House and Senate. That goal, while worthy and necessary, is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated. The nation is not dealing with a person of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism. Judging by his actions, words and deeds during his first term, he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the American people through the power he has usurped or been granted. 
 
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character and integrity would assume the reins of power. However, knowing that was not always possible, they dispersed power over three distinct and independent branches as a check on each other. 
 
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch, the Congress, to a chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores them 

Conservatives, Libertarians, the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal. All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the various committee chairmanships.  

Steve McCann 
May 12, 2012   

I would add but 6 words to those above mentioned, Conservatives, Libertarians, the Republican Party and Mitt Romney, to say "and we the American people also", must come to grips with this moment in time and our role in denying Barack Obama his life long goal of "transforming" us into his slaves working on his government plantation.

Maybe together we can save America for ourselves and those who will follow after us.  Get out and vote in November.

May God bless America.

Dear Mary,

You already know that an active citizenry is required in order to preserve and restore liberty.

But being active by itself does not guarantee you a win, and using the wrong techniques can do more harm than good.

If you are going to spend your time and treasure trying to reclaim the Republic, then let's do it to win.

The Virginia Campaign for Liberty is hosting a One-Day Grassroots Activist School with Kirk Shelley, our Senior Political Consultant.
You have two opportunities to learn all the inside secrets of how to win at the Capitol coming up in a few weeks.  This school will be in Chesapeake on July 14 and in Lynchburg on the 15th.
At this school you will learn proven methods for forcing change in your legislature.
This intense training covers:
  • The Real Nature of Politics - why "educating" people won't result in change
  • The Biggest Lie in Politics - and how the political class uses your convictions against you
  • How to Work Effectively at the Capitol - getting a bill sponsor and roll call vote despite the leadership
  • How to Build a Group - putting pressure on legislators
We are still finalizing the details for this class, but I wanted to give you advance notice of the date right away so you would be sure to save the date.

I'll be sending you the rest of the details soon, but if you want to sign up today –

CLICK HERE for Chesapeake on Saturday July 14
CLICK HERE for Lynchburg on Sunday July 15

There is no prize for second place in politics - you owe it to your ideas and principles to learn how to win at the Capitol.

In Liberty,

Chris Stearns

Dear Mary,

You already know that an active citizenry is required in order to preserve and restore liberty.

But being active by itself does not guarantee you a win, and using the wrong techniques can do more harm than good.

If you are going to spend your time and treasure trying to reclaim the Republic, then let's do it to win.

The Virginia Campaign for Liberty is hosting a One-Day Grassroots Activist School with Kirk Shelley, our Senior Political Consultant.
You have two opportunities to learn all the inside secrets of how to win at the Capitol coming up in a few weeks.  This school will be in Chesapeake on July 14 and in Lynchburg on the 15th.
At this school you will learn proven methods for forcing change in your legislature.
This intense training covers:
  • The Real Nature of Politics - why "educating" people won't result in change
  • The Biggest Lie in Politics - and how the political class uses your convictions against you
  • How to Work Effectively at the Capitol - getting a bill sponsor and roll call vote despite the leadership
  • How to Build a Group - putting pressure on legislators
We are still finalizing the details for this class, but I wanted to give you advance notice of the date right away so you would be sure to save the date.

I'll be sending you the rest of the details soon, but if you want to sign up today –

CLICK HERE for Chesapeake on Saturday July 14
CLICK HERE for Lynchburg on Sunday July 15

There is no prize for second place in politics - you owe it to your ideas and principles to learn how to win at the Capitol.

In Liberty,

Chris Stearns
Virginia Campaign for Liberty

Obama's Second Term Transformation Plans 
 
      
 
The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860. This statement is not hyperbole. If Barack Obama is re-elected the United States will never be the same, nor will it be able to re-capture its once lofty status as the most dominant nation in the history of mankind. 
 
The overwhelming majority of Americans do not understand that Obama's first term was dedicated to putting in place executive power to enable him and the administration to fulfill the campaign promise of "transforming America" in his second term regardless of which political party controls Congress. That is why his re-election team is virtually ignoring the plight of incumbent or prospective Democratic Party office holders. 
 
The most significant accomplishment of Obama's first term is to make Congress irrelevant. Under the myopic and blindly loyal leadership of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, the Democrats have succeeded in creating an imperial and, in a second term, a potential dictatorial presidency. 
 
During the first two years of the Obama administration when the Democrats overwhelming controlled both Houses of Congress and the media was in an Obama worshipping stupor, a myriad of laws were passed and actions taken which transferred virtually unlimited power to the executive branch. 
 
The birth of multi-thousand page laws was not an aberration. This tactic was adopted so the bureaucracy controlled by Obama appointees would have sole discretion in interpreting vaguely written laws and enforcing thousands of pages of regulations they and not Congress would subsequently write.  
 
For example, in the 2,700 pages of 
ObamaCare there are more than 2,500 references to the Secretary of Health and Human Services. There are more than 700 instances when he or she is instructed that they "shall" do something and more than 200 times when they "may" take at their sole discretion some form of regulatory action. On 139 occasions, the law mentions that the "Secretary determines." In essence one person, appointed by and reporting to the president, will be in charge of the health care of 310 million Americans once ObamaCare is fully operational in 2014. 
 
The 
same is true in the 2,319 pages of the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act which confers nearly unlimited power on various agencies to control by fiat the nation's financial, banking and investment sectors. The bill also creates new agencies, such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, not subject to any oversight by Congress. This overall process was repeated numerous times with other legislation all with the intent of granting unfettered power to the executive branch controlled Barack Obama and his radical associates. 
 
Additionally, the Obama administration has, through its unilaterally determined rule making and regulatory powers, created laws out of whole cloth. The Environmental Protection Agency on a near daily basis issues new regulations clearly out of their purview in order to modify and change environmental laws previously passed and to impose a radical green agenda never approved by Congress. The same is true of the Energy and Interior Departments among many others.  
 
None of these extra-constitutional actions have been challenged by Congress. The left in America knows this usurpation of power is nearly impossible to reverse unless stopped in its early stages. 
 
It is clearly the mindset of this administration and its appointees that Congress is merely a nuisance and can be ignored after they were able to take full advantage of the useful idiots in the Democrat controlled House and Senate in 2009-2010 and the Democrat Senate in the current Congress.  
 
Additionally, Barack Obama knows after his re-election a Republican controlled House and Senate will not be able to enact any legislation to roll back the power previously granted to the Executive Branch or usurped by them. His veto will not be overridden as there will always be at least 145 Democratic members of the House or 34 in the Senate in agreement with or intimidated by an administration more than willing to use Chicago style political tactics. 
 
The stalemate between the Executive and Legislative Branches will inure to the benefit of Barack Obama and his fellow leftists. 
 
The most significant power Congress has is the control of the purse-strings
 as all spending must be approved by them. However, once re-elected, Barack Obama, as confirmed by his willingness to do or say anything and his unscrupulous re-election tactics, would not only threatengovernment shutdowns but would deliberately withhold payments to those dependent on government support as a means of intimidating and forcing a Republican controlled Congress to surrender to his demands,thus neutering their ability to control the administration through spending constraints.  
 
Further, this administration has shown contempt for the courts by ignoring various court orders, e.g. the Gulf of Mexico oil drilling moratorium, as well as stonewalling subpoenas and requests issued by Congress. The Eric Holder Justice Department has become the epitome of corruption as part of the most dishonest and deceitful administration in American history. In a second term the arrogance of Barack Obama and his minions will become more blatant as he will not have to be concerned with re-election.  
 
Who will be there to enforce the rule of law, a Supreme Court ruling or the Constitution? No one. Barack Obama and his fellow-travelers will be unchallenged as they run roughshod over the American people. 
 
Many Republicans and conservatives dissatisfied with the prospect of Mitt Romney as the nominee for president are instead focused on re-taking the House and Senate. That goal, while worthy and necessary, is meaningless unless Barack Obama is defeated. The nation is not dealing with a person of character and integrity but someone of single-minded purpose and overwhelming narcissism. Judging by his actions, words and deeds during his first term, he does not intend to work with Congress either Republican or Democrat in his second term but rather to force his radical agenda on the American people through the power he has usurped or been granted. 
 
The governmental structure of the United States was set up by the founders in the hope that over the years only those people of high moral character and integrity would assume the reins of power. However, knowing that was not always possible, they dispersed power over three distinct and independent branches as a check on each other. 
 
What they could not imagine is the surrender and abdication of its constitutional duty by the preeminent governmental branch, the Congress, to a chief executive devoid of any character or integrity coupled with a judiciary essentially powerless to enforce the law when the chief executive ignores them 

Conservatives, Libertarians, the Republican Party and Mitt Romney must come to grips with this moment in time and their historical role in denying Barack Obama and his minions their ultimate goal. All resources must be directed at that end-game and not merely controlling Congress and the various committee chairmanships.  

Steve McCann

I would add but 6 words to those above mentioned, Conservatives, Libertarians, the Republican Party and Mitt Romney, to say "and we the American people also", must come to grips with this moment in time and our role in denying Barack Obama his life long goal of "transforming" us into his slaves working on his government plantation.

Maybe together we can save America for ourselves and those who will follow after us.  Get out and vote in November.

May God bless America.
