Bennie Thompson has demonstrated his support for the Liberal Agenda time and time again in spite of the overwhelming and obvious preference of the people to live by more Fiscally and Social Conservative values. It is clear that the longer elected officials stay in Washington, D.C., the more out of touch they become. Representative Thompson has been in Washington long enough and it is time to send him home.

Bill Marcy is a committed Fiscal and Social Conservative and his many years as a police officer reminds him daily that his role is to Serve & Protect. Bill will Serve the interests of Mississippi and Protect our Freedoms. Bill will focus his attention on the reducing the debts that our children and grandchildren will have to pay. Bill’s values are the values of the People Of Mississippi and he will represent our State honorably, honestly and humbly. Marcy has been an active member of the tea party movement since their inception and has spoken at many tea party events.

This link will provide you with a good overview of Bill’s stance on the issues. Plus, you can visit http://www.BillMarcyForCongress.com to learn more about Bill’s history and his campaign to defeat Bennie Thompson and the Liberal Agenda. He needs your support for the June 1st primary, so pass the word!

Rick Barber is a small business owner and a conservative Republican running for Congress in Alabama’s 2nd Congressional District.

Rick is a product of the South. He spent his childhood in Arlington, Texas in a modest home with a Christian upbringing. Rick was one of twelve Barber children. His parents had six children of their own and adopted six more from troubled families in the community.

The Barber family is a military family. Both Rick’s father and brother served honorably in the Marine Corps. Rick also heard the call to serve, and he answered in 1995. He enlisted in the Marine Corps and became an information technology expert. He served for four years, three of which were overseas in Okinawa, Japan. Rick was promoted four times in three years. He received several citations for excellence and was honorably discharged in 1999.

Rick has been very active in the TEA party movement in 2009. He’s thrown open the doors of his business for TEA party events. He’s spent considerable time, money and effort protesting Washington’s runaway federal spending. He is deeply troubled by the way Washington’s lawyers and bureaucrats are spending our tax dollars. Until this year, Rick had never considered running for an elected office.

As a successful small business owner, Rick Barber doesn’t need a Congressman’s salary. As a devoted father and husband, Rick doesn’t need to spend time away from his family on the campaign trail. Rick is running for Congress because Alabama’s 2nd Congressional district needs a Congressman who will stand and fight in the House of Representatives for fiscal responsibility and America’s founding principles of limited government.

…online activists are chattering about two more special elections, one in Florida and the other in Massachusetts. Whether or not this online dialogue will bring about the same type of attention as the NY-23 race is too early to be determined. However, it does deserve some consideration.

I have to give her credit, her sources must have been better than mine, because at the time, I was monitoring some of the most popular conservative blogs and while almost all of them picked up the Scott Brown race in Massachusetts, to my knowledge, none of them said anything about the Florida race in District 19. I was introduced to the candidacy of Allen West in District 22, but nothing about Edward Lynch in District 19.

And that is a shame, because on February 2, 2010, Edward Lynch won the Special Republican Primary Election in FL-19 and is running a strong race to replace Robert Wexler, the Democrat who resigned from Congress on January 3, 2010 to become president of the Washington-based Center for Middle East Peace and Economic Cooperation. Wexler called for impeachment hearing for Dick Cheney & George Bush in November, 2007 and made news again in June, 2008 when he signed on to Dennis Kucinich’s articles of impeachment for George W. Bush for abuse of power.

However, just one month later in July, 2008, Bill O’Reilly reported that while Wexler claimed his mother-in-law’s home in Delray Beach as his official residence, but actually lived in a Marylan suburb for most of the year. The information came from Edward Lynch who had been researching Wexler and took his findings which included the fact that the home in Delray Beach was a 55 and older community that Wexler didn’t qualify to live in because Wexler was born in 1961. Wexler tried to cover by saying that he stays there when in Florida on average twice per month. The “arrangement” as a “Florida Resident” allowed Wexler to pay no personal income tax despite living almost permanently near Washington D.C.

It was not clear whether the residency issue had anything to do with Wexler’s resignation from my research, but it was clear that Edward Lynch stood up and forced the issue. Lynch took his case to the people of South Florida and it must have resonated because even as a Conservative running in a very Democratic District (just like Scott Brown!) Lynch is running a very strong race in the District.

Lynch has picked up endorsements from D.C. Works For Us, several retired Military Officers, local elected officials and even comedian Jackie Mason. Lynch supports free market health care reform, not a government takeover of health care. He believes the primary role of the government is to protect it’s citizens with a strong military and strong national security. His approach to energy is to “use it all”: oil, nuclear, wind and other alternatives. He believes in a single state solution for Israel and unwavering support for Israel. Taxes and government spending should be cut aggressively to reign in government and return our Country to free market solutions to our most pressing problems. He supports either the Flat Tax or Fair Tax, but either way our tax system needs serious reform. He is strongly in favor of the 2nd Amendment and any citizen’s right to free exercise of this right. And finally, even as a proud Hispanic American, Edward Lynch believes that immigration policy should include no amensty. Period. You can read up on all his positions here.

On April 13, 2010, Edward Lynch will be the Republican candidate in the Special Election for District 19. We highly encourage you to take a look at Edward Lynch as a candidate and then decide for yourself if you feel his campaign is worthy of some support.

PS: Watch the Red Eye video below you’ll find that he has a pretty good sense of humor as well.

In the bluest of blue states, the people of Massachuetts went to the polls and voted for the most conservative candidate and in doing so they voted against Ted Kennedy liberalism, ObamaCare, Pelosi, Reid, Democratic control of the Senate, Socialism and the liberal agenda being forced down the throats of all Americans. I heard stories today that although the unions were encouraging their members to go vote, many of them were planning to vote for Brown.

Liberal Washington was sent a message when millions marched on September 12th and they ignored us. We told them we were coming when Hoffman did as well as he did in NY-23 and they ignored us. They were sent a message when millions of pink slips arrived at the Capitol and they ignored us. We were screaming into bullhorns when New Jersey and Virginia elected Republican Governors and they ignored us. But today, Scott Brown kicked in the door of the Senate and announced that the game has changed! They cannot ignore us anymore.

But here’s the thing to remember: YOU DID THIS! YOU MADE THIS HAPPEN!

No matter how the media spins the results, no matter how the Democrats try to cheat or delay or prevent Scott Brown from taking his seat, remember that this didn’t happen without each and everyone of you who donated to Brown’s campaign, volunteered to call people in Massachuetts, talked to someone you knew, participated in a Tea Party Meeting or even if you just started paying attention. It took all of those things for Brown to win, just like it will continue taking each and everyone of you participating in the process every time an opportunity comes our way.

On Thursday, January 7th, 2010, the word started to spread among Tea Parties all over this country that there might be a chance to help Scott Brown when Rasmussen reported that Brown was down by only 9 points. On Friday, January 8th, 2010 along with hundreds of other Tea Parties, we sent out a request to all our members to help Scott if they could. Average Americans began to respond over that weekend, but starting on Monday of the following week donations started pouring into the Brown campaign at the rate of over $1 Million dollars per day all in small donations! The Democrats were caught flat-footed and when they tried to respond it was too little too late. Coakley didn’t help her campaign by dissing Curt Schilling and then Obama arrived and dissed people who drive trucks. But none of that would have been useful if we all had not been paying attention to this race. Best of all, because Obama went to Martha’s aid, he owns this loss just as surely as he is ultra-liberal.

Last Friday, I was exchanging emails with a friend and we were discussing the Tea Party Movement in general. In one of my emails, I confided to him:

“We need a win. Simple, straightforward, no bs, and no spin. Tea Parties need a win that they can point to and say “We did that.” Period. I cannot over emphasize the importance of this fact. And we need a win that we can call our own WITHIN the existing two-party system. As non-partisan as we try to be that will probably be within the Republican Party. Nothing sells like a winner. Nothing feels as good as accomplishing the impossible. Nothing, but nothing exceeds feeling like a hero.“

To paraphrase Sidney Poitier in the film “In The Heat Of The Night,“ Scott Brown can feel good when he says, “They call me Senator Brown!” However, you can take pride in saying, “They Call Me A Tea Party Member!”

Revel in the moment. Enjoy the sweetness of the win. Savor the feeling of accomplishing the impossible. Relish being a hero.

Then on Tuesday, January 26th, 2010 join MeridianTeaParty.com at the EMEPA Auditorium on Hwy 39 North at 6:30pm as we start the next step in continuing the process of replacing those members of Congress and the Senate who have forgotten who they work for and who sent them there. Oh, and bring a few people with you who want to be on a winning team! We need more players, it’s just getting good now!!!!!

PS: I hope Scott Brown drives his truck to Washington to take his seat. Wouldn’t it be cool if pickups lined the streets of Washington, D.C. to welcome him?
