The awakening of the American people in the form of the tea party & 9/12 movement’s have surfaced a heightened distaste for politicians that carry the Republican banner but oftentimes disappoint their constituents with compromise on spending, taxation and government programs.
The temptation, as I’ve noticed in pockets around the country, is to vote third party.  [...]

We want Reagan-style leadership of fiscal sanity, moral responsibility, abundance through creative and productive enterprise, and the dream of American-style freedom projected at home and abroad. We want Democrats to abandon the platform of death to innocent beating hearts, socialism that destroys and devalues, and yes— join us, Mr. Graham—the new American Tea Party.

BECAUSE OF SACRED HONOR & MEN LIKE THESE

Posted on 03. Jul, 2010 by jamespratt in All Posts, Featured, Founding Principles, James Pratt, Reagan Revolution, Uncategorized

“We mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.” There are wolves at the door. Incessant lying, corruption, “ruler’s law” mentality; all cast a long shadow across the land from our capitol named for our first liberator, George Washington. All that Murr and hundreds of thousands of others fought and died since for since the first Revolution are at risk. This, because as Edwin Meese III so eloquently stated:

MODERATES NEED NOT APPLY

Posted on 27. Jun, 2010 by jamespratt in All Posts, Featured, James Pratt, Reagan Revolution, Uncategorized

A conservative or liberal will “draw a line in the sand” upon belief. Trying to keep a foot in two worlds, a moderate will wait for the prevailing wind to waft by erasing any line where risk is involved. Center of the road is a terrible a place to travel and is dangerous, while it takes thought to fight for something you believe in, right or left. When it comes to advancing a cause, Tea Party supporters will tell you moderates… need not apply.

Posted on 23. Jun, 2010 by jamespratt in All Posts, Featured, Founding Principles, James Pratt, Reagan Revolution, Uncategorized

What’s wrong with elitist Europe’s view of America’s Right is that they have never had a “right” like ours. Europe’s political right has been dominated with hard-fisted regimes costing tens of millions of lives. The view of the “American Right” done through a Nazi, Communist, and Fascist lens is a dangerous generalization.

Posted on 27. May, 2010 by jamespratt in All Posts, Featured, Founding Principles, James Pratt, Reagan Revolution, Uncategorized

While a handful of decision makers in Washington DC will cause enormous damage to America’s financial lifeblood—investment in the private sector, job creation, and productivity—the American entrepreneurial spirit will eventually triumph over efforts by Obama ruling elites to “…fundamentally transform America.”

How will free enterprise and markets triumph?
