File under "vote early and vote often".

This week, we saw an extraordinary display of civic exposure, watching James O’Keefe and crew acquire ballots for voters who recently died. But that’s not all of it.

After reading this article, I learned that our voter checklists are not all they are cracked up to be.  In addition to listing recently-deceased people, there are cases of people moving out of state, or to other New Hampshire towns, without being purged from the list.  Given these cases, some people may actually be able to vote multiple times, without challenge.

A Personal Endorsement for Ron Paul

I live in New Hampshire.  I served proudly as a US Army Field Artillery officer, own my own successful business, and started the Greater Nashua (NH) Tea Party.  I love my country and will be voting for Congressman Ron Paul in the New Hampshire Republican primary.

America is in deep trouble; fiscally, culturally, and constitutionally.  We took great strides in pulling our nation from the brink of collapse in the 2010 mid-term elections and, as we approach the Presidential election of 2012, are positioned to take the next great step, denying Barack Obama a second dangerous term.  

When the primary process started, I took a quick look at the candidates.  Of course, I wanted to choose the most conservative candidate who could win. Each candidate had a number of positives, and many of them were preaching messages I wanted to hear – smaller, less intrusive Federal government, fiscal sanity, and a return to a culture of personal accountability and individual responsibility.  Which of these candidates, I wondered, really meant what they were saying?  Which one actually had the desire and fortitude to rebuild the economic and personal liberties we have given up over the past fifty years, at the hands of both political parties?

Romney’s top donors are made up almost exclusively of the biggest private banks on the planet

Romney Top Contributors 2011Saw a posting yesterday on a social network, which really bothered me.  

After all we just went through, and continue to go through, with TARP, bailouts, stimulus, two rounds of quantitative easing (QE), and now a pending IMF bailout, I see this article, titled "Federal Records Show Romney Campaign Bought And Paid For By Big Banks"

Remember Goldman Sachs?  Morgan Stanley ring any bells?

When you look at the employers of the people who contribute most to Mitt Romney’s campaign, does it worry you?  It sure makes me think.

I’m not a Romney supporter, but if you are, and if you live in Iowa or New Hampshire, you should probably factor this into your thinking over the coming days.

I guess it’s really all just a big game, and we’re in the stands, watching, not even on the field.

    Crying Wolf

    Our founding fathers knew that liberty and property are inseparable.  James Madison said, "It is sufficiently obvious, that persons and property are the two great subjects on which Governments are to act; and that the rights of persons, and the rights of property, are the objects, for the protection of which Government was instituted.  These rights cannot well be separated."

    As time passes, the wisdom of our founding fathers continues to fade from memory, as well as the foundation of our liberties and freedoms.  No one is against preserving and protecting our natural resources.  Conservation is important for our current and future generations, but the environmental movement has been coopted by radical ideologists who wish to impose their political agendas on Americans, under the guise of protecting the planet. 

    Our property rights -- and freedom -- are under attack.  The movie "Crying Wolf" provides a new insight into environmental extremist restrictions that are being imposed on us by unelected bureaucrats.
