You might want to watch Huckabee's show and then check with some of his guests. He had Andy Williams last night, just to mention one possibility for a FairTax commercial. You are right they did NOT talk about FairTax, just that he is a Republican an…

Keep Your Whole Paycheck
With all due respect to Sherlock Holmes, there are no brilliant deductions on your paycheck. Instead there's just the dreaded withholding trifecta of federal income tax, Medicare and Social Security, which collectively cut your take-home pay into a mere fraction of your gross income. Talk about an unwelcome pay cut. And if that's not bad enough, consider those who are self-employed and pay their own payroll taxes on top of that (ouch) .

But it doesn't need to be this way and with the FairTax it won't be. With the FairTax, federal income tax, Medicare and Social Security withholdings are gone (and fully funded through a better system), and workers and the self-employed keep their whole paycheck for a change. Wow, keeping what you earn. Now that's elementary...

It’s time to change our thinking. It’s time to change our economics. It’s time to change Washington. It’s time for the FairTax.

When they came for me, there was no one left to say anything.
YES IT CAN HAPPEN HERE AND LOOKS LIKE IT WILL

HOW DO WE STOP THIS?

Billie,
Thanks for adding me as a friend. I would love to meet with you and your group. I will attempt to come to your next meeting and meet you. I appreciate everything that you are doing.

I hope that you will not allow my feelings about the 2 party system to be a driving wedge here. I am a registered republican. As such I have voted on a traditional conservative slant. However, I feel that they have abandoned us. The more I learn about the political system the more I realize how corrupt it has become. That being the case I feel no allegiance to the party. A person that I met recently had a good point, she said we need to vote Principle over Party.

The GOOOH project has a lot of very good points and could possibly be a great way to get rid of the many incompetent and career politicians.

Keep up the good work. We need more people like yourself that are ready to step up.

Hi Billie, I got your message. Herman Cain (and Neal Boortz) is doing a fine job getting people involved but his message only reaches people here in the South and what we need is a strong voice in the Northeast portion of the US. I cannot understand why those up north are so against opening their minds - the FairTax is a no-brainer!!! I truly believe that this is the only answer to all our fiscal problems. This Government of ours is out of control - they're systematically destroying any chance of our future generation's prosperity and I am totally frustrated!!! Now, aren't you glad you wrote me??? Keep up the good fight!

Hi Billie, I got your message about needing Ohio Tea Party websites. I'm not sure if I can somehow add these myself, but here they are for you if you can add them.

http://www.cincinnatiteaparty.org/
http://www.daytonteaparty.org/
http://www.columbusteaparty.com/
http://www.clevelandteaparty.com/
http://www.cantonohioteaparty.com/

And there is the following site for Ohio which has membership across multiple Tea Party groups and other groups like Ohio Freedom Alliance and OH 912.

Today when I went to see a movie, which many Americans do on holiday weekends, the ticket taker said “Happy 4th of July”. I gently corrected him and said “Happy Independence Day”. That got me to reflecting, why is it that so many of our most sacred holidays are reduced to trite expressions? Christmas is now Happy Holiday or Happy Xmas, Thanksgiving is Happy Turkey Day and Memorial Day is now Happy Start of Summer.

Independence Day is what the true name is of what is more commonly known as 4th of July. Most people in America are content to celebrate by shooting off fireworks, going to barbecue's, movies, or shopping. All fine activities, however, this lackadaisical attitude is part of the atmosphere of malaise that will soon have us celebrating, if we are able to do so freely or at all, just the memory of Independence Day.

Samuel Adams said “It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.” People say “I'm too busy with kids, work, bills, life in general.” I say why can we not, in these days of relative ease and comfort, of air conditioned everything, 24 hour fast food, free libraries, cable TV and Michael Jackson video re runs, do something to support the cause of freedom and liberty?

Freedom isn't free and the price paid has been and will continue to be steep. My challenge to all of us reading this is to do more to keep those brushfires of freedom burning before the next Independence Day. Be an informed American: vote, call/fax/email/write your representative when they dare do anything that encroaches upon your freedoms. If you have the ability, run for office, even if it is your local city council or state office. Finally do not let those we put into office rest until they uphold the Constitution and support freedom and liberty for all Americans.

I just picked this up from another site. I did not check out the link, but I think it should be icausa.net. Pass it on.

I am on the Board of Directors at http://ciausa.net and we have decided to offer our FAX services to the conservative community at no cost. We have opened up the site's on-line store and FAX CENTER to the public. It is not necessary to be a member of Citizens in Action, however, if you should so decide please join us. If you have any friends in Maine or Vermont please feel free to forward this message to them. We don't have any people faxing the government from there. In fact if you have conservative friends anywhere please forward this message of welcome and our offer of FREE FAX'es to them.

We're not calling it that, but yes, we are. It will be held tonight at the American Legion (8th & Wooster Sts.) in Marietta, 7-8:30. Charlie Wilson, Zack Space, George Voinovich and Sherrod Brown all received invitations by registered mail. None have said they'll be there, but we've got several other panel members who are very well-equipped to answer questions, and since they're not politicians, they'll actually give people the truth.
