FW: Tea Party Abandoned By Republicans in Alaska

Sound familiar? At least its now official…

Pete

Republican Party Protects the Ruling Class Tea Party Candidate needs our help! Dear GOP Trust Supporter: ABC NEWS is reporting this morning that "high level officials" in the Republican Party admit they are abandoning Tea Party Conservative and winner of the Alaskan Republican Primary Joe Miller in favor of liberal insider Lisa Murkowski. This disgusting display of arrogance, entitlement, and outright defiance of the Tea Party - and the expressed will of the voters - is beyond belief. Joe Miller beat the long time Washington insider, fair and square. But the Establishment refused to embrace him - even undermined him - and so now he is in the fight of his life to win on Tuesday. And Senate control hangs in the balance. Our 30-second TV ad and our explosive documentary, Breaking Point, both of which have been saturating the Alaskan market, have successfully filled the void left by the Party. Joe Miller is dead even in the polls and will win if can produce a huge wave of Conservative voters. We must continue to educate the Alaskan voters and ensure they vote Conservative on Tuesday. We are on the phone right now buying additional airtime to bring Joe to victory. Please help us keep these ads on the air. GO HERE TO ELECT JOE MILLER Take Back Our Country and Our Party! Joe Miller is a great candidate and exactly the type of Conservative leader we need in Washington to turn this country around. Sarah Palin was able to help deliver Joe Miller's great win in the Republican Primary but now it is up to us to push him over the top Tuesday! Your support has been tremendous and we are almost to the finish line. Please help us close this election off with force. Together we can deliver a stinging defeat to the liberal establishment by electing Conservative Joe Miller and defeating the liberal Washington insider Murkowski. Aggressively airing of our explosive documentary, Breaking Point and keeping our campaign ads on the air will do it! Watch Our Ad Watch Film This race should have been a cake walk. Instead, we are liable to lose this race simply because the Republican Establishment was bypassed, and didn't like it. And as a result, they've stubbornly ignored, denied and fought Conservatives every step of the way. Now we are on the cusp of delivering a major blow to the Political Establishment and coming one step closer to taking back our country, and our once proud party. We can do it but we need to hurry. Help us, Please, to get this ad and our film in front of every voter in Alaska. We will continue to buy airtime right up until the polls close.

Just Returned from a Tailgate Party with Dan Maes

We just got back in from a tailgate party with Dan and Jordan Maes. We also did a Honk and Wave catching folks going into the Air Force Academy for the game. What a great event! Every time I talk with Dan I am impressed by his quality and character. What a neat man. He is like any person you have ever known from church.

He enjoyed the Frito Poundstoner video that went around and told me it was the first time in 20 months that he really did a full belly laugh. He watched it again and again and he really enjoyed it! I was so pleased that it was an encouragement to him.

We'll see him and his entire family again on Tuesday night at the voter return party from 7-11pm. It is open to all if you'd like to attend. Let me know and I'll give you information on the details.

Subject: HB1388 passed! (You MUST Read This One)

The American Café,

I am sorry I have not been on top of this one. I heard about it within the firestorm of bad, dangerous and harmful legislation this administration is using to dismantle our preeminence.

Pete

This is formatted this way on purpose. Read it slowly and carefully…let it sink in. Realize the loss of control over our country and its government has occurred and will continue to occur. Make a difference VOTE in November. HB 1388 PASSED You just spent $20,000,000 to move members/supporters of Hamas, a terrorist organization, to the United States ; housing, food, transportation, the whole enchilada. HB 1388 PASSED Whether you are an Obama fan, or not, EVERYONE IN THE U.S. needs to know.... Something happened... H.R. 1388 was passed, behind our backs. You may want to read about it.... It wasn't mentioned on the news... just went by on the ticker tape at the bottom of the CNN screen. Obama funds $20M in tax payer dollars to immigrate Hamas Refugees to the USA . This is the news that did not, and will not, make the headlines... By executive order, President Barack Obama has ordered the expenditure of $20.3 million in "migration assistance" to the Palestinian refugees and "conflict victims" in Gaza . The "presidential determination" (ain't that nice?) which allows hundreds of thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the United States , was signed and appears in the Federal Register. Few on Capitol Hill, or in the media, took note that the order provides a free ticket replete with housing, transportation and food allowances to individuals who have displayed their overwhelming support to the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the parliamentary election of January 2006. Now we learn that he is allowing thousands of Palestinian refuges to move to, and live in, the US at American taxpayer expense. These important, and insightful, issues are being "lost" in the blinding bail-outs and "stimulation" packages. Doubtful? To verify this for yourself: www.thefederalregister.com/d.p/2009-02-04-E9-2488 YOU MUST PASS THIS ON... AMERICA NEEDS TO KNOW... Friends, WE are losing this country at a rapid pace.

Pete's Picks-My Choices for the November Election

Friends in the American Cafe,

I continue to get so many requests for advice on candidates and issues as people prepare to vote I must, in the interest of my own time management, post my choices here. Realize that these are merely my own personal choices this election season and do not represent any official position or endorsement either of candidates or of issues on behalf of my organizations, my employers, my place of worship or of any other group I may be associated with. Inform yourself then vote your own consciences. For further explanation, particularly on my perspective on the Governor's Race, review my Facebook pages or "Notes" contained under its Note Tab. (Also note that some races/issues I have not included in this list either because I did not choose a candidate or am undecided or unprepared to say.) Finally, let me encourage you to wait until the latest possible day to vote (but don't miss it) as new information always comes out during these last few days on both issues and on Candidates.

Senator: Ken Buck.

Governor: Dan Maes. Reference my Facebook articles on “Don't Take the Bait”, “Why I Cannot (morally) Vote for Tancredo”, and others.

Secretary of State: Scott Gessler.

Treasurer: Walker Stapleton.

Attorney General: John Suthers.

Regent: Steve Bosley.

County Coroner: Bob Bux.

COLORADO SUPREME COURT RETENTIONS:

NO on Bender. NO on Martinez. NO on Rice. Reference is "CleartheBench.org"

COURT OF APPEALS RETENTIONS:

YES on all. Reference is Tom and Debs Picks although realize that Tom and Debs Picks rooted for Jane Norton against Ken Buck and for Dan Maes (but notably "with reservations"). They also pulled for JJ Ament. My point is that they certainly get it wrong sometimes and that they still appear to be mistifyingly unsupportive of the grassroots/liberty movement around the country.

4TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT RETENTIONS:

NO on Deborah Grohs, NO on Gilbert Martinez. "Yes" votes assumed on others. Reference is Tom and Debs Picks.

COUNTY JUDGES-EL PASO COUNTY:

NO on Lawrence Martin, NO on Jonathan Walker, NO on Regina Walter. "Yes" votes assumed on others. Reference is Tom and Debs Picks.

STATE REFERRED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS-originated in legislation.

NO on Amendment P, NO on Amendment Q, NO on Amendment R

STATE INITIATED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS-originated by citizen petitions, carried by paid and/or volunteer circulators.

NO on Amendment 60 which can be largely accomplished by state legislature without the downsides/landmines.

NO on Amendment 61 which can be largely accomplished by state legislature without the downsides/landmines.

YES on Amendment 62, "The Personhood Amendment" recognizing a baby is a human being from conception on.(As opposed to a protected baby seal, dolphin, whale or Preeble Mouse.)

YES on Amendment 63 protecting Coloradoan's ability to choose their health care options, shielding us from ObamaCare.

NO on Proposition 101 which can be largely accomplished by state legislature without the downsides/landmines.

NO on Proposition 102

NO on COUNTY QUESTION 1B expanding current term limit to another term.

NO on COUNTY QUESTION 1C expanding current term limit by another term

NO on COUNTY QUESTION 1D expanding the current term limit by one more term.

YES on CITY OF COLORADO SPRINGS QUESTION 2B to retain money the City OVERCHARGED US last year. This will be used for Roads and Bridges if not sucked up by corruption and mismanagement.

NO, NO, NO on CITY OF COLORADO SPRINGS QUESTION 300 to empower the Governor with much more power and authority. While a "Strong Mayor Model" is needed for our city this particular proposal is a mess. In this proposal though the Mayor will need to pay for a "city manager" by a different name, it still does not provide real authority to the Mayor in many key areas (namely NOT being over the biggest two budget items totalling over 50% of the budget; Hospitals and Utilities), and is advocated by the front-runner for Mayor which is suspiciously self-serving. This is NOT a true STRONG MAYOR MODEL even though they are calling it so. I say "Go back to the drawing board and bring us a well thought through "Strong Mayor" proposal and we'll consider it."-source City Councilman, Darryl Glenn.

I hope this helps provoke thought and serves to help you make a better decision on all your choices. *Vote your own conscience. If you disagree with my opinions I understand completely. Just do your own homework, as I have done, and make good, sound, wise and Godly choices.

Are You Taking The Bait?

The American Café,

 

I am attaching my final communication regarding Dan Maes and his run for Governor. I heard as recently as Saturday night from a woman who phoned me to go over her ballot with me and ask my input. She is still laboring under much of the misinformation, half-truths and outright lies that [the third party candidate] has run on the TV and Radio with his millions of dollars of national and Washington support. We talked for two and a half hours.

 

In religious circles we call the attacks on Dan Maes Gossip. Somehow we believers give Gossip a pass when it is delivered within a political context. But it is just as wrong, maybe even more harmful and destructive and, while effective, is a reprehensible tactic to sway public opinion. I am amazed at how many of the grassroots activists have believed what they have heard from the opponent of their original grassroots candidate, and disregarded, ignored or didn’t bother to hear directly from the man who is attacked. I am ashamed and embarrassed by how many people who should know better but have bought into the lies from [the third party candidate’s] political attack machine. The Elites within the Republican Party have categorically refused to allow the grassroots in Colorado field a Citizen-Candidate and refused to honor our choice for Governor. The ruling elite within the Republican Party is doing the same thing in Alaska where Joe Miller beat the RINO incumbent, Lisa Murkowski in the Primary. Not willing to accept the people’s choice Lisa decided to run as a write-in candidate, spent Millions on Attack  Media (because it works), and is now pulling even with Joe Miller. RESULT? Democrat victory, with the Republicans blaming the Grassroots for their loss. Just what I expect will happen here in Colorado.

 

Read this letter from Dan a friend has forwarded to me. Watch the YouTube to hear directly from Dan on the many vicious, relentless and unconscionable lies against him. Don’t keep repeating the lies (as though they were true) or you yourself become complicit in them. Refuse to participate in the Gossip and political warfare against Dan regardless of how you may cast vote. Operate in utmost integrity and righteousness in all areas of our lives because it is the right thing to do…and let God handle outcomes. Don’t second guess God about outcomes but do the right thing even when it seems to hurt.

 

I got a letter from [the minority party candidate] on Friday asking to make up with the grassroots. He is polling about 6 points down from Hickenlooper and is coming to believe he needs the Dan Maes supporters he has savaged after all, in order to win. My response was that if he is sincere and wants to ask forgiveness he needs to run a statewide media campaign retracting his lies and attacks on Dan. He needs to work to restore the reputation he and his supporters have destroyed in Dan Maes. He needs to ask Dan and Karen to forgive him and to do Press Releases admitting that his behavior to destroy another human being was because he wrongly felt that winning was more important than even his own character.

 

Our Prayer and Political Action groups: 1.) Pray for God’s outcomes and 2.) Encourage our own citizen involvement to press our leaders toward righteousness. We fight against injustice and ungodliness in our elected officials and in those trying to become our next elected officials. We stand for integrity in the process established for our Caucus System in Colorado, stand against voter corruption and against the manipulation of our citizens to vote a certain way. We fight against those in both parties who would try to override the will of the Grassroots, battling those who have given us the disaster we now face in America. We stand for a restoration of the values and ideals of our founders; who established narrowly defined roles for government to protect our God-given freedoms and liberty, and a citizen-led government.

 

I hope this letter serves to clarify our values and serves to encourage you to do what’s right by faith, regardless of outcomes. Remember that first and foremost God wants an obedient people. Outcomes have always been the responsibility of God alone. Nations rise and fall on whether its citizens have hearts fully committed to Him, demonstrated by all that what we do.

 

Warmly,

 

Pete and Adrienne Robberson

Everyone,

 

One of the most common phrases I heard early on in the conservative revolution (movement) was the anger and frustration of the Republican Party always manipulating the caucus process in order to insure one of its own was favored later on down the line into the assembly and the general election.  Often that meant a moderate, someone with money, and especially that ever elusive “electability”.  We saw it with Coors, Beauprez, Schaefer, and most recently McInnis.  All are fine men, of course, but they all reflected the system that was broken.  The power brokers used whatever creative solutions behind the scenes available to accomplish their goals.  It had become impossible to do anything about it…or did it?

 

This year, you had a man willing to go not only the extra mile, but over 100,000 miles in 20 months, to make the sacrifices needed and worthy of your loyalty and support.  I was willing to make the sacrifices you were demanding from candidates.  I not only showed up once or twice to your area but 10 or 20 times in some cases.  I had to run two campaigns in order appeal to two groups while honoring a conservative message among both. I often found myself in Grand Junction on a Monday for a Tea Party event only to be invited to return days later for a Republican event.  This happened many times across our large state.  Do you remember me attending 4 Tea parties last 4^th of July?  I incurred the private plane expenses to meet the demand of groups in Denver, CSP, Pagosa Springs and Loveland.  Like many of you, I had to ask myself was it worth it.  Would I give up yet another day with my family to be with you, the people of Colorado? The answer was ALWAYS yes.  No complaints, we did what the cause needed done, right?

 

One night, my 7 year old son Ben asked me to make sure I said good bye to him in the morning before I left.  I knew I would be leaving before 6:00 AM and wondered if he really knew what it meant for me to say good bye as I would have to wake him to do so.  The next morning I decided to not wake him as I thought it better to let him sleep.  I got in my car, raised the garage door, and started to back out. I heard Ben yelling to me in tears, “Daddy, you said you would say good bye to me this morning”.  He had heard the garage door and run into the garage in his PJs.  I stopped, got out and hugged him, half laughing and half crying, and told him good bye and got him back to bed.  He never asked me to stop running, he just wanted me to say good bye. 

 

Many of you have made similar sacrifices over the last 18 months.  You gave of your family time, your finances, your vacations, etc. to insure true conservatives were your candidates.  You wanted them to earn your support and stand for lower taxes, constitutional government, and your freedoms.  I never once heard someone say, “We just need someone who can win”.  I never once heard someone say, “We’ll take anyone as long as the liberal doesn’t win.” This was EXACTLY what we were fighting against, holding our noses for someone who could win in exchange for our conservative principles. 

 

Thanks to all of our hard work we got through the primary with a historic victory.  Do you actually realize the significance of what you accomplished getting me through the primary?  You bet I know who got me through it and I still recognize it.  But now some are taking the bait.  The bait is dressed up as an alleged conservative who can, “preserve the conservative movement” as I have been told recently.  Whether this man acted on his own initially and brought the GOP in line later or it was orchestrated from the beginning makes no difference.  The bottom line is the GOP once again, in a desperate Hail Mary pass, is hi-jacking the process and your votes and telling you to pick the man who can win.  They used the same tactics as they use in other states;  run a scorched earth campaign against the people’s candidate, make him/her appear unelectable, then run some polls to insure you are convinced, and finally tell you to elect their choice, not your choice that you worked so hard to get elected.

 

Now, it appears that the very man who gave you walking orders last fall and betrayed you with a third party is asking you to support him.  Oh, some of you will fall for it, but you shouldn’t.  Some of you will actually believe and trust this man in good faith.  Don’t do it. 

 

One of the sacrifices I have made is missing church because of travel and engagements.  I said I would not do it early on but it became obvious that I would need to.  I actually made it to church today.  The sermon was about righteousness and justice.  How appropriate.  Will we stand for what is right and just or will we sell out for convenience?  Trust me; I have heard every argument to do the latter.  It was the same argument my predecessors have most likely heard and bought into, thus leaving us with what we have become so disgusted with.  That is why I will not waiver.  If I waiver the entire last 20 months will be for naught.  I must stand strong for those who are also standing strong.  I must stand strong to draw back those of you who may be taking or have taken the bait.  Most of all, I must stand strong for that 7 year old crying in the garage, and for your 7 year old, and the 70 years olds that voted for me, still support me, and demand that I not get out of the race.  We hear it everywhere.  “You have more support than you know”. 

 

So where does that leave us?  If I have not already gotten your vote, I ask for your loyalty, your courage, and your vote.   See you on Nov. 2^nd.       

 

 

God bless, and for those who are still pondering the vote because of the half truths and lies you have been hearing I invite you to watch the attached.  Be prepared, the worst is coming this week.

Michigan Woman Charged with Discrimination For Seeking A Christian Roommate

October 22, 2010 Print Michigan Woman Charged with Discrimination For Seeking A Christian Roommate
Posted by Catherine Snow
The era of “anti-discrimination” political correctness is spinning out of control in Michigan.

Michigan’s Department of Civil Rights is moving ahead with a complaint it received against a woman for posting the statement, “I am looking for a Christian roommate,” on her church bulletin board. According to the agency, she violated Fair Housing laws by “engaging in discriminatory advertising…due to religious beliefs.”

If found guilty, the young woman may have to pay a civil fine, as well as be forced to attend “sensitivity training,” so that she will not “discriminate in the future.”

Harold Core, the state’s Civil Rights spokesman, defended the action and said the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s codes were clear: One cannot “…make, print or publish or cause to be made, printed or published any notice, statement or advertisement with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling that indicates any preference” based on religious beliefs.

Joel Oster, lead counsel with the Alliance Defense Fund – and representing the Christian woman –said that the government’s actions blatantly violated her First Amendment rights to freedom of association and asked that the complaint be immediately dismissed.

“She is not prohibited by either federal law or state law from seeking a Christian roommate,” Oster said. “Neither Title VIII of the U.S. Fair Housing (Act), (the) Civil Rights Act of 1968 nor the Elliot Larsen Civil Rights Act No. 453 prevents a woman like (her)] from seeking a Christian roommate.”

The person who filed the complaint – whose identity is also being protected by the state – apparently turned over the information to the Fair Housing Center of West Michigan (FHCWM), a nonprofit “fair housing” organization, which took the matter to the state housing authorities.

According to FHCWM’s website, it trains people to “play the role of a home seeker – a person who is looking for a housing unit in which to live” – and teaches these “Testers” to file complaints of discrimination.

“Christians shouldn’t live in fear of being punished by the government for being Christians,” Oster said. “Not content to just lock Christians and their beliefs into the four walls of their church or home, some groups also want to invade those walls and force their own ideas upon them by force of law.

“This should be frightening to every single person, no matter what faith you are or what your politics are,” Oster added. “My goodness, the government is coming into your house and telling you who you can seek out as a roommate. What is next?”

Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2010 21:54:03 -0600

The American Café,

 

I understand that today another round of attacks ads from Tancredo on Dan Maes came out. These ads sink to a new low, even for Tom.

 

If you are like me you wonder why Tancredo doesn't campaign against Hickenlooper. His message seems to be "Vote for me Colorado because I am not Hickenlooper."  Quite a compelling message. But first he must annihilate Dan Maes, or shall I say assassinate Dan.

 

I have said before that I cannot vote for such a reprehensible man as Tom Tancredo. I now declare that I will not be voting for ANY REPUBLICAN who has thrown in with such a candidate. Tom is demonstrating that he is of LOWER character than Hickenlooper. For elected Republican officials to violate the by-laws and endorse outside the party, and then have that endorsement be for such a low-life as Tom Tancredo is demonstrating himself to be is reprehensible! I am ashamed of Bob Balink, Larry Liston, Kent Lambert and a dozen other visible and influential elected Republican officials for their behavior. They have sold their souls for 30 pieces of silver.

All,
    I am sorry for loading up e-mails, but this I wanted to gt out to you. Today, TT has starting airing radio ads that are way beyond the pale. Even the Denvor Post refers to i as "brutal". I see it as an attack on Dan's family and of a nature one would expect from George Soros or SEIU. I sent the letter below to every GOP elected officl in the stateHouse and Senate. If you have not heard this vile attack, you can hear and read he transcripts on TTs website under radio ads. This one i titled Maes is Bancrupt. While I usually only suggest action on things, this time I am encoraging you to stand up and ask the GOP if this is what they have become. Pass it to anyone you know who demands intergrity in our elected officials and in the Party.

 

===

Normally, I start letters to elected officials with a proper "The Honorable", but today I am not sure that applies. I have heard many campaign ads from the Democrats' this season attacking GOP candidates, but their ads are only lying about policies. Today's radio ad from Tom Tancredo against Dan Maes crosses so many lines of decency that I am asking you now is this what the GOP has become? Is this what you endorse? The ad says Dan shook down an "old lady for mortgage money" and he "ripped off" his supporters by "swiping" campaign funds. Really? These are crimes, if this is what the GOP says is happening demand an arrest; or is it just the "seriousness of the charge" that really matters.

 
The worst is the ad says, "a life built on lies always catches up to you". Really? This is the what we stand for? Personal attacks on a man and his family? Prove this. This is what you associate your credibility and personal integrity on? The Party tolerates this on one of its own? Where are the vile and viscous personal attacks on Hickenlooper? Or is that out of line?

 
This whole affair has been handled in a disgraceful and sickening way since the end of the primary. This latest abomination reflects poorly on the Party, every one that is associated with it and Colorado. Any elected official that finds this acceptable deserves much closer scrutiny by all. The ads ends "if integrity matters…." It seems there is little integrity left from those so desperate for a win they resort to this new low. If there is any left in the GOP, this type campaigning must be addressed and denounced. I'd expect it from George Soros, but I'm sickened it is from a Party so many of us have worked so hard for and one that claims to be one of principle.

A History Lesson on Your Social Security Card

Guys, this is very interesting if you have not seen it before-Pete.

Forwarded-“Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn't know this. It's easy to check out, if you don't believe it.  Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what's what and it doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are Facts.

Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.

An old Social Security card with the "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message.
Our Social Security 

Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He promised: 

1.       Participation in the Program would be completely voluntary, is no longer voluntary

2.       The participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program, now 7.65% on the first $90,000

3.       The money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year, no longer tax deductible

4.       The money the participants put into the independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program, and, Under Johnson the money was moved to The General Fund and Spent 

5.       The annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.  Under Clinton & Gore up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed 

Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month --  and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of  the money we paid to the Federal government to 'put  away' -- you may be interested in the following:

Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?

A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate. 

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- -- 

Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?

Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities? 

A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore  casting the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the  US 

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- - 

Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants? 

AND MY FAVORITE: 

A: That's right!  Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party

Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!

Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away! 

And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it! If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve. Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn't so.
