What to expect - "The Plan"

My intention is to first layout the conservative principles by which we should judge the actions of our government and individual elected officials and the role of government in our republic. I will discuss the differences in a true republic and a democracy and why the republic should remain, or be reborn as, our foundation. This is very illustrative of the difference in Republicans and Democrats.

Next, I plan to comment of policies and actions held to the standards and principles I define in the above noted postings. I hope it stimulates conversation that will help the next generation learn to succinctly articulate the "why" and the importance of their conservative beliefs in order to bring more of them into the light of our cause.

Finally, I will have a lot of unrelated postings about whatever else impacts my world or catches my attention.

Stay tuned and jump in with your 2 cents worth. Remember, FOS: Use It!

Freedom Of Speech: Use It!

Just as it has been said that a man who does not read has no more advantage than a man who can not read; a man who does not speak out for what he believes has no more advantage than a man who can not speak out. We must exercise our freedoms because so many have sacrificed so much for them. One of the biggest given to us by our founding fathers is freedom of speech (FOS). I am my kids dad and I am setting the example for them. Speak out kids! We've taught you how to learn and how to think and how to speak. Now exercise your writing and thinking for the world to see.

In politics remember, we are Christians first, conservatives second, and Republicans last. With those principles in mind, this blog will launch.
