Are you Tea-ed Off Yet? Get in the game or lose the game!

Fellow Patriots,

 

If you are reading this today you might be in the wrong place. Get yourself down to the second time in recent history when hundreds of thousands of Americans are saying ENOUGH is ENOUGH! Last year about 750 groups spontaneously erupted on Tax Day with gatherings and protests in their towns and cities to put our elected officials on notice that we will vote them out of office if they abandon Limited Government, Financial Responsibility and Individual Liberty. Rather than hear us and respond like an shamed employee placed on Probation they doubled down on their spending and outrageous behavior.

 

Later in the summer tens of thousands of regular citizens showed up at their various officials’ Town Hall Meetings to demand that they properly represent the interests of their constituents. Again Washington rebuffed the petitioning of the Citizenry. Finally on September 12, 2009 between one and two million people converged upon Washington DC in the largest gathering in history at the Mall. The mainstream media, when embarrassed into mentioning it all reported that several thousand toothless, hillbilly, racists gathered in hoods and robes to “Hate On” the first black President…because if you don’t accept Unconstitutional Government bullying business, lenders, automobile manufacturers, investors, doctors and health workers then obviously you ‘just hate black people’.

 

Come to Acacia Park if you are in Colorado Springs today from 11am to 1pm. No matter what city you are in there is undoubtedly a gathering of Freedom Loving Patriots who have had it over their heads in Unconstitutional Power Grabbing, reckless and foolhardy spending, dangerous foreign policy and hatin’ on our Constitution and on Americans. Google TaxdayTeaParty to find a location. Get yourself out into the streets while you still have a voice and we still have the freedom to gather and speak. The stakes have never been higher in our lifetimes and we have exactly one chance to get this right. If you won’t do it for yourself do it for your children and grand children. They’ll never have the America we loved and cherished.

 

We’ll be there. Just a heads up; Reports are that a group from Oregon called Crash the Tea Parties. Founded by a middle school teacher his website is calling for infiltration and disruption and includes specific instruction to bring racist signs complete with misspelled words to wave in front of any media that will cover them. Also the Anarchists have been following the Tea Party Express across the country and continue to stage disruption and counter-demonstrations calling for…anarchy, (why they call themselves anarchists?). Finally expect SEIU and other organized labor groups to attend. SEIU beat Bobby Jindal’s campaign person and husband so badly they were hospitalized over the weekend down in Louisiana. Come to peaceably gather, be seen and heard and connect with like-minded Americans who want our Country back.

Emailing: NEARLY HALF OF US HOUSEHOLDS ESCAPE FED INCOME TAX

NEARLY HALF OF US HOUSEHOLDS ESCAPE FED INCOME TAX

Tax Day is a dreaded deadline for millions, but for nearly half of U.S. households it's simply somebody else's problem, says the Associated Press (AP).

According to projections by the Tax Policy Center, a Washington research organization:

  • About 47 percent will pay no federal income taxes at all for 2009.
  • Either their incomes were too low, or they qualified for enough credits, deductions and exemptions to eliminate their liability.

Most people still are required to file returns by the April 15 deadline. The penalty for skipping it is limited to the amount of taxes owed, but it's still almost always better to file: That's the only way to get a refund of all the income taxes withheld by employers:

  • In recent years, credits for low- and middle-income families have grown so much that a family of four making as much as $50,000 will owe no federal income tax for 2009, as long as there are two children younger than 17, according to a separate analysis by the consulting firm Deloitte Tax.
  • Tax cuts enacted in the past decade have been generous to wealthy taxpayers, too, making them a target for President Barack Obama and Democrats in Congress.
  • Less noticed were tax cuts for low- and middle-income families, which were expanded when Obama signed the massive economic recovery package last year.

The result is a tax system that exempts almost half the country from paying for programs that benefit everyone, including national defense, public safety, infrastructure and education. It is a system in which the top 10 percent of earners -- households making an average of $366,400 in 2006 -- paid about 73 percent of the income taxes collected by the federal government, says the AP.

The bottom 40 percent, on average, make a profit from the federal income tax, meaning they get more money in tax credits than they would otherwise owe in taxes. For those people, the government sends them a payment.

"We have 50 percent of people who are getting something for nothing," said Curtis Dubay, senior tax policy analyst at the Heritage Foundation.

Post-Party Summits: Organizing for a Free America

Some of the most influential grassroots conservative groups in the country are joining forces to give activists the tools they need to drive real change in their communities. We believe real change begins at the local level, and to that end, we are empowering citizens like you to take back your communities, your state, and eventually Washington. American Majority is teaming up with RedState.com, SmartGirl Politics and The John Hancock Committee for the States to host seven historical events, called the Post-Party Summits: Organizing for a Free America.

In addition to the host of trainings being held, several keynote speakers have confirmed their attendance at the Post-Party Summits, including Erick Erikson, CNN commentator and editor of RedState.com; Dana Loesch, blogger, radio host, and regular commentator on Fox News and CNN; S.E. Cupp, author, political columnist and commentator who appears regularly on “Fox & Friends,” “The Sean Hannity Show,” Redeye,” and “Geraldo At Large” and author of two books, “Losing Our Religion: The Liberal Media’s Attack on Christianity,” and “Why Your Wrong About The Right”; and Steven Crowder, comedian, columnist and commentator known for his political satire.

The Post-Party Summits will take place in the following cities:

Denver: April
30, May 1

We believe these Post-Party Summits will provide the training and resources conservatives need to combat a statist-driven government and win in 2010 and beyond. Please visitwww.americanmajority.org/summit for more information. We believe that these events will fundamentally change the grassroots by providing communication strategy, fundraising tactics, and new media training to help activists combat the political structure currently in place on the Left.

Forcing kids to Cross-Dress for Women’s History Month

"Posted by Stacy Nason in For Real?, Get Involved on April 12th, 2010
I came across this post on facebook… what do you think? what would you do if this was your childs school?

My son’s Elementary School forcing kids to Cross-Dress for Women’s History Month

You know…I’m always praising the Maple Shade School district where we live for the great job they do with my kids. Because of that, I have overlooked the Politically-Correct-insanity that has changed “St. Patricks Day” to “LEPRECHAUN DAY”, and Christmas to “WINTER Holiday”, or “Good Friday” to “Spring Day”…but NOW THEY’VE GONE TOO FAR!

I support the idea of teaching about Women’s History Month, in regards to our rights, equality, and roles in US and world history…but asking my 9 YEAR OLD SON to dress like a woman in a school FASHION SHOW in school in front of his peers is crossing the line for me. They sent home a memo telling us that regardless of male/female, ALL students must participate….and I am MAD.

How is dressing like a woman from any era going to teach him about history? Why not let him do a report, poster, or other project on this subject? If he was attending a vocational school in the field of textiles, women’s fashion, etc, then it would make sense. My son is adamantly opposed, and I dont see how FORCING my 9year old to CROSS-DRESS in front of the ENTIRE SCHOOL BODY is going to teach him ANYTHING about Women’s History.

I am not prejudiced, and I have gay and/or cross-dressing friends whom I love dearly, but this sounds more like a sneaky lesson in social tolerance, and that is MY JOB, not the school district or local government. If my son decided he wanted to do it, for “fun”, like as if it were Halloween, then that I would support.

I resent the fact that the Maple Shade School District is telling me that HE and I have no choice. That my son must dress like a woman, because “women’s fashions” are vital to his understanding of the history of this country….and we have NO options. Why not teach him/them about Betsy Ross, Susan B. Anthony, Harriet Tubman and/or Helen Keller?

Further, just like the whole “Healthcare” debacle, I believe it is for ME to decide, and not for the government, or governmental agency to force me to do something that is against my son’s identity, our religious beliefs or parental rights.

What are your thoughts on this? "

The American Cafe-Good News

The American Café,

Don’t know if you saw this today but Dawn Johnson withdrew her name for consideration to as the Assistant Attorney General. We have talked about how wacky and radical she is believing such things as sex in a marriage is rape, pregnancy is slavery and a woman cannot consent to becoming pregnant any more than pedestrian can consent to getting hit by a car.

Why can’t these women come to grips with the fact that they have serious personal/mental issues, a horrible childhood, and that they attract bad men like a magnet? It’s always the fault of everyone else…

Whatever……………..

Now keep your eyes open. Will she be appointed to the Supreme Court instead?

FW: Major Pro-Life Victory over Dawn Johnsen Nomination

 

Dear Peter,

A pro-life victory!

On Friday afternoon, the pro-life movement scored a major win when Dawn Johnsen, President Obama’s radically pro-abortion nominee for the Assistant Attorney General in the Office of Legal Counsel, withdrew her name from consideration.

Susan B. Anthony List activists have been fighting Johnsen’s nomination for over a year now—and with good reason. Not only has Johnsen called pregnancy “slavery,” this pro-abortion radical served as the legal counsel for National Abortion & Reproductive Rights Action League and also worked on the ACLU’s Reproductive Freedom Project.

Johnsen once said that women are “the inevitable losers in the contraceptive lottery,” and “no more ‘consent’ to pregnancy than pedestrians ‘consent’ to being struck by drunk drivers.”

It was the sustained opposition of  Susan B. Anthony List activists like you, Peter, that kept up the intense pressure. Over 26,000 letters expressing outrage over Johnsen’s nomination have been pouring into Senate offices from across the country since we began.  Special thanks to Indiana Right to Life for taking the lead to generate pressure from back home on Indiana Senators.

Johnsen admitted Friday that it was the “strong opposition” that led her to withdraw her nomination. Today, ABC News reported that the reason for Johnsen’s withdrawal was that the White House "didn't have the stomach for the debate."

Peter, thank you so much for your dedication to protecting Life. Without your perseverance, we would never have succeeded in this effort to stop Dawn Johnsen. I hope that this good news sustains you as we gear up for another Supreme Court nomination and the mid-term elections.

For Life,

Marjorie Dannenfelser
