Sen. Tom McClintock's Online HQ is open

Senator McClintock is ready to tackle this campaign with an online headquarters! What a novel idea. Here are some of the instructions:
Step 1.
Download and Print Campaign Literature
.
We've provided two campaign handouts and a brochure that you can print on your own printer. This will print on one side of a standard 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of paper.

Step 2.
Contact 10 Voters in Your Neighborhood
.
We've teamed with VictoryTeam2006 to provide lists of registered voters in your neighborhood. When you click the link at the Online Headquarters, you will be taken to a request form. Fill the form out completely and a list of ten voters in your neighborhood will be generated for you.

Come back as often as you like to generate new lists of voters. The more voters you contact for Tom McClintock, the better his chances!

Step 3.
Tell your Friends
.
Use the contact form we've set up to email five friends today and tell them how they can help Tom McClintock campaign too.
If you have any questions or would like to donate to his campaign, you can reach do so here: www.HelpTom.com!

You may also visit his online headquarters here: Online Headquarters.

If we all get together, we can really make this happen. Are you with us? I hope so! Have a great day.

SacBee=NO on 87

If you have been here before, you may have noticed the little box I have that says, "No on the Oil Tax Initiative." It appears we are not alone. The Sacramento Bee's editorial has agreed with us!

This is quite unusual, since Sacramento is a socialist town. Kudos are in order to the Sacramento Bee. Thank you.

"Proposition 87 mandates the expenditure of $4 billion and authorizes the new agency to sell bonds to incur this debt, regardless of whether the new tax will generate sufficient revenue to pay the principal and interest on the bonds. As a result, it creates a significant risk for the taxpayers and the programs funded by the State's General Fund."

If she will spend our money on herself in this manner, how much more will she be willing to spend to stay in power?

USA to Rhode Island: You're out of the Union

Oh, how I long to read that headline. As you may be able to correctly assume, I am upset about the outcome of the primary. Laffey lost to this credent (Chaffee). We are stuck with this democrat-er-RINO for another six years. Dang blast it.

PR: We haven't forgotten

This is an important post I have written on my main page. I believe everyone should listen.

Have you ever wondered what happened to the unity we all shared right after that tragic day? Tonight, Gregg and Kevin will take a look back to that awful day. They will examine what happened to us, our political parties, and the facts. The evidence as we all saw with our own eyes. Can we allow the media to deceive us?

At 7pm EST, Pundit Review will be providing sounds from that day. Try to remember where you were, how you felt, what you thought.

At 8pm EST, one of the most influential members of the new media, Scott Johnson of Powerline. He will be discussing what happened that day, what went right, what went wrong. He will also discuss the emergence of the blogosphere.

At 9pm EST, we will turn our attention to Matt from Blackfive. He will bring us his weekly "Someone You Should Know." We will also be discussing Matt's new book (which I already have in my possession!), "The Blog of War."
What is Pundit Review Radio?
Pundit Review Radio is where the old media meets the new. Each week Kevin and Gregg give voice to the work of the most influential leaders in the new media/citizen journalist revolution. Hailed as “Groundbreaking” by Talkers Magazine, this unique show brings the best of the blogs to your radio every Sunday evening from 7-10pm EST on AM680 WRKO, Boston’s Talk Leader.
You may listen to the program by streamlining here. May all of your loved be safely with you. If you are not geographically close, may they be close in your hearts.

Remember

Micco for Congress

Ret. Sgt. Vincent Micco of New Jersey's 9th District will be running against Congressman Steve Rothman in this upcoming election.

Sgt. Micco is an Operation Iraqi Freedom Veteran. He disagrees with Congressman Rothman, who has chosen to follow in Murtha's footsteps. He believes Iraq may one day be a wonderful ally.

There is more information in an e-mail I received from Ronald Kessler. I have rewritten that letter with the information over here. Thank you.

Hidden Tax Cut

How many of you are aware that the IRS has been ordered to stop taking the 3% tax they have been charging on your phone bill for 108 years to pay for the Spanish-American War?

Yes, when someone showed this to me, I went directly to FactCheck.org to see if I could get a laugh out of them. To my surprise, they are claiming it is true!

They have sent me an article written Friday, May 26, 2006, by Ken Belson who is working for the New York Times. Yes, I know. Be very careful. lol. It is titled, "Phone Tax Laid to Rest At Age 108.

I don't know about you, but I will take any tax cut I can get. After 108 years, do you think we may have paid this debt many times over? I do.

You may find the article at My Newz 'n Ideas Plus! if you would like to read it. Have a great day.

PS. I pray we don't need to fight this stupid war again. I want my 3%! Also, we need our sovereignty.
