Common Sense
I apologize for taking so long to share my thoughts with you regarding the Restoring Honor event in Washington D.C. It has taken me several days to figure out a way to put words to the powerful emotions that we experienced at an event that proved to be an incredible reflection of America's founding principles.
Deciding to Go There
What an incredible weekend! The Restoring Honor rally is over and, to be honost, I'm still trying to find the words to describe it so I decided to give you a preamble just so you can know that I haven't forgotten you. As a matter of fact, since the rally I can't seem to get my mind off the wonderful people who make up this great nation. Please forgive me for taking more time to find the right words. I plan to have a full description with pictures and video of the event by Wednesday at the latest.
What's funny is that it took me several minutes to choose an appropriate category for the event. I picked "common sense" because the rally was so full of common sense and basic principles that I feel it fits the best.
Stay tuned for more.

As Independence Day approaches my thoughts turn to the extraordinary courage of our Founding Fathers who, along with only a handful of their neighbors, chose to fight against the tyranny of an oppressive government and declare their Independence. They put their faith in God and pledged their "lives, fortunes and sacred honor" in order to make America a free nation.
There is an insidious effort underway to convince Americans to worship the government and place our faith there instead of where it truly belongs: "In God We Trust." This year I encourage you to join me and re-declare your independence from over-reaching government.
Following is my recent reply to a liberal on a blog that veered toward the fundamental differences between liberals and conservatives. I got a little fired up and I look forward to your feedback.
Hmmmm.... let's see:
- Record unemployment
- A business exodus from the state
- Record deficits
- A looming energy crisis
- Un-controllable government spending
- A punitive tax structure
All of these very important issues to address and our Democrat controlled state government thinks it is more important to spend time on legislation regarding road kill. Absolutely remarkable. Their incompetence is truly stunning.
As some of you know I am the LaCrosse Tea Party Organizer and have worked in the community to educate and congregate people to rally against wasteful and irresponsible government spending. Freedoms are what keep us prosperous. My goal is to bring a voice of common sense to the County Board and to the Onalaska Town Board.
