TOOL OF THE WEEK

I wasn't hiking the Appalachian Trail.
I was in Argentina chasing tail.

It was my mistake.

We have been strong supporters of Mark Sanford up to this point. I admit that I personally saw someone like Governor Sanford running for President in 2012. What that shows you, however, is that you absolutely cannot judge a politician by his words. I am pretty confident that Mark Sanford still supports many of his purported views on political issues. The problem is that I can no longer trust him.

We must cease to trust politicians who show by their deeds, as opposed to their words, that they are not deserving of our trust. If I can't trust you to be truthful about personal matters such as where you are for five days while you cheat on your wife and violate your marriage vows then how can I possibly trust you to be honest with me when it comes to major issues that might make you look bad. If you're that concerned with your image then you are TOO CONCERNED WITH YOUR IMAGE. The responsible and respectful thing for Mr. Sanford to do at this point is for him to resign as Governor and take time to clean up his own house.

We need men and women of character that can be trusted completely with the conservative agenda and relied upon to do what is right. We've already got a capital full of self-indulgent, elitists looking to screw us at every turn. We don't need any additional philanderers in D.C.

Grassroots Efforts
Grassroots efforts are necessary to bypass the myriad political party, governmental and special interest groups out there which are attempting to steer the American people in the directions and into support of the policies they want to see enacted.
 
We want to build momentum and action on the part of individual Americans and common patriots to let congress know what "We The People" really think about their hairbrained ideas for running our country. The tools below will make it easy to locate your representative and senator then contact those individuals to let them hear your voice.
 
We will also be including specific notes and/or information on particular bills and issues to keep everyone posted on what's going on up there on capitol hill.
 
We're ready to start a movement that takes Washington by storm folks. We're not just talking. We are working here to do something about the waste, corruption, apathy and arrogance in our government. Let's work together to take back America from the leftists, elitists and just plain lazy, self-indulgent bureaucrats in Washington.
