An Open Letter to Florida Congressman David Jolly

An Open Letter to FL Congressman David Jolly

Regarding the reversal of your position on

Homosexual Marriage 

Dear Congressman Jolly,

We recently learned of the complete reversal of your position on homosexual marriage from the Washington Post.  Please know how profoundly disappointed we are in this decision. 

So many of us worked, walked, called, gave money and voted to help you get elected and defeat the liberal Democrat Alex Sink because you personally assured us that you were a conservative Republican who believed that marriage was between one man and one woman. 

In church after church, you publicly stated your support for the policy behind Florida's law and Florida's constitution which clearly defines marriage as the union of one man and one woman, as over 30 other states have done. 

Just months ago, you told us that you supported a "state's right" to define marriage which is consistent with the holding of the 2013 U.S. Supreme Court case of U.S. vs. Windsor -- yet now you are completely failing to support your own state's law and the constitutional mandate passed by five million Floridians.

You ran for office in Florida's Congressional District 13, which is completely contained within Pinellas County where 54.3% of the voters voted in favor of marriage being between one man and one woman in 2008.

You ran for Congress as a member of the Republican Party with a platform clearly affirming that "marriage, the union of one man and one woman must be upheld as the national standard" and now you have turned your back on this standard. 

By agreeing with the judge's recent ruling in Monroe County, you promote the fiction that Florida's marriage laws have been declared unconstitutional by some legitimate authority.  The Federal Courts have clearly not given their final word on this matter and the ruling is being appealed by Florida's Attorney General. 

Even worse, when you agree with this lower court's opinion, you also agree with his irresponsible claim that citizens in your district who passed the marriage amendment were motivated by "animus" or hatred toward gay-identified persons.  Nothing could be further from the truth or more morally repugnant to us, as we all affirm the inherent dignity and value of every human being. 

We reject your illusory and false dichotomy between your "personal views" and "public views" as a legislator as you made no such distinction during your campaign.  Liberals for years have made the same arguments to deceptively triangulate on other moral issues. 

You make much of talking about the government having no place protecting the "sanctity of marriage," which misses the point and is an argument no one is making. 

Your statements in the Washington Post are not those of a serious-minded and thoughtful legislator who understands the state's compelling interest in the economic and social implications inherent within the institutions of marriage and family.

We are profoundly disappointed in this announcement and now we can only wonder what other issues you might change your views on.  Please know that we consider your reversal on this critical issue to be an act of cowardice and a betrayal to the very persons that worked extremely hard to get you elected to office. 

We call upon you to publicly apologize for this mistake and hold fast to your original position that states should define marriage as it has always been, the union of one man and one woman only.  We also challenge you to not cower to the pressure, demands and intimidation of homosexual activists.  Finally, we exhort you to be governed not by polls, politics and profits but instead to be governed by principle and what is in the best interest of children, families and the common good of society.  Your future as the Congressman representing us in Florida's District 13 is counting on it.

Respectfully, your campaign volunteers, financial supporters and constituents:

The "Redskins" ruled offensive...Give me a break

The term Redskins has been ruled "disparaging" according to a recent ruling by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, was filed on behalf of five Native Americans. 
"Alfred Putnam Jr., the chairman of Drinker Biddle & Reath, said. “The dedication and professionalism of our attorneys and the determination of our clients have resulted in a milestone victory that will serve as an historic precedent.” read the story from the Washington Post here.
No, this cannot be refuted by the liberal Snopes.com although they are conspicously silent today.This is going to set a scary precedence for many frivolous suits. The image above is obviously the Florida State logo as opposed to this:

However, I am encouraged to see that even the voice of a few can make such sweeping changes if people continue to keep the pressure up. The old Reagan adage," If they won't see the light, make them feel the heat." This goes to show that you may only have One Voice and One Vote, but how are you going to use your One Voice and One Vote? These people fought long and hard to win this decision and whether we agree with it or not, we must admire their tenacity and determination to have fought this over 3o years.
Why is it that those of us who support issues that make a difference in our world and stand for the righteousness of God do not stand together and fight for the freedoms that He has given us in this Country?

2014 GALLUP POLL: OVER 40 PERCENT OF AMERICANS BELIEVE IN CREATION

I believe that this is exactly why schools are the way that they are today. We have replaced simple logic and math with the pretenses of wicked men and an ignorant population.

"The results are in! The 2014 Gallup Values and Beliefs survey, conducted May 8–11, reveals the United States’ current perspective on the origins of life. Researchers polled a random sample of 1,028 adults, ages 18 and older, living in all 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia. According to the poll, four out of 10 Americans believe the creation science view of human origins, and three in four confirm that the Bible is the Word of God."

Look Who's Making a Mockery of Marriage Now!

San Francisco Marriage License Counter:

"Next."

"Good morning. We want to apply for a marriage license."

"Names?"

"Tim and Jim Jones."

"Jones?? Are you related?? I see a resemblance."

"Yes, we're brothers."

"Brothers?? You can't get married."

"Why not?? Aren't you giving marriage licenses to same gender couples?"

"Yes, thousands. But we haven't had any siblings. That's incest!"

"Incest?" No, we are not gay."

"Not gay?? Then why do you want to get married?"

"For the financial benefits, of course. And we do love each other.
Besides, we don't have any other prospects."

"But we're issuing marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples who've
been denied equal protection under the law. If you are not gay, you
can get married to a woman."

"Wait a minute. A gay man has the same right to marry a woman as I
have. But just because I'm straight doesn't mean I want to marry a
woman. I want to marry Jim."

"And I want to marry Tim, are you going to discriminate against us
just because we are not gay?"

"All right, all right. I'll give you your license. Next."

"Hi. We are here to get married."

"Names?"

"John Smith, Jane James, Robert Green, and June Johnson."

"Who wants to marry whom?"

"We all want to marry each other."

"But there are four of you!"

"That's right. You see, we're all bisexual. I love Jane and Robert,
Jane loves me and June, June loves Robert and Jane, and Robert loves June and me.

All of us getting married together is the only way that we can express our
sexual preferences in a marital relationship."

"But we've only been granting licenses to gay and lesbian couples."

"So you're discriminating against bisexuals!"

"No, it's just that, well, the traditional idea of marriage is that
it's just for couples."

"Since when are you standing on tradition?"

"Well, I mean, you have to draw the line somewhere."

"Who says?? There's no logical reason to limit marriage to couples.

The more the better. Besides, we demand our rights! The mayor says the
constitution guarantees equal protection under the law. Give us a
marriage license!"

"All right, all right. Next."

"Hello, I'd like a marriage license."

"In what names?"

"David Deets."

"And the other man?"

"That's all. I want to marry myself."

"Marry yourself?? What do you mean?"

"Well, my psychiatrist says I have a dual personality, so I want to
marry the two together. Maybe I can file a joint income-tax return."

"That does it!? I quit!!? You people are making a mockery of marriage!!"

Give Thanks with a grateful heart...Gen. George Washington

WHEREAS it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favour; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me "to recommend to the people of the United States a DAY OF PUBLICK THANKSGIVING and PRAYER, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:"


NOW THEREFORE, I do recommend and assign THURSDAY, the TWENTY-SIXTH DAY of NOVEMBER next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed;-- for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enable to establish Constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted;-- for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge;-- and, in general, for all the great and various favours which He has been pleased to confer upon us.


And also, that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions;-- to enable us all, whether in publick or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us); and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.


GIVEN under my hand, at the city of New-York, the third day of October, in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and eighty-nine.

Introducing my parents to Islamberg N.Y.

I spent a good couple of hours with my father this weekend explaining to him the current threatcon regarding islam in America. We were at a Coffee Shop located way back in the mountains at the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains. We had a good cup of Guatamalan coffee and discussed the rise of islam in America. Directly following this little get together, my dad and I proceded back to the house and I gave him a eye opening preview of ISLAM What the West Needs to Know.
This morning while waiting for my hunting buddy to pick me up, I had the opportunity to share some of what we do at ACT For America with my mother. After explaining the basic tenets and tactics of islam, I brought this whole discussion out of the ethereal and brought it home when I showed her Islamberg. A little town in Upstate N.Y. that hosts their very own terrorist training camp located on Moslem road outside of Hancock New York.
This jihad is not "over there" any longer. We have to present this in the light that people will understand and personalize the message. "Creeping Shariah" and "Stealth Jihad" is a very real and present danger. It is up to us to ACT! for America and bring this issue into the light.

First comes Saturday. Then comes Sunday. Not on my watch! No jihad in my backyard!

This would be the funniest thing I have ever seen...if it were not true. How to confuse a liberal, use facts and logic.
