A New Party---

--from the old!

After watching the shenanigans in Washington, D.C. over the past week, I've decided we need a new party--one that "cuts to the chase".

Instead of politicians who pat each other on the head and mouth platittudes, I want a party that demands and gets action.

I've decided to call it The Traditional Party, and those of you who read this, are priviledged to be privy to it's new beginnings.

The first priority is the establishment of a party platform. Second, recruitment of members who are willing to run for office based on this party platform.

This should, in all likelyhood, be called, "advance notice", since the platform is not set in concrete as yet. But you may assume if it's in the Constitution, this party will favor it. The converse is also true!

In my many years upon this planet and in this country, I've watched the slow growth of socialism in other governments and their slow decline in freedoms and rights of the citizens, offset by the sudden growth of taxes to support the top-heavy governments required to support socialist programs.

That's not my idea for America.

The present concept of "big brother" is not my idea of America, either! The fact that government intrudes in our daily lives is inexcusable. The fact that citizens allow government to intrude into their daily lives is even more inexcusable.

I've seen, disappointingly, a number of people who believe there is no changing government and that we're are inevitably doomed to slowly sink into a socialist abyss from which there is no recovery, other than by armed revolution.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you value your country, then you must realise the time has come to regain our independence and our freedoms.

Let's not WAIT until revolution is the only logical answer!
