I’m not surprised. Chuck and the gang at WLW picked Lisa Wells once Darryl Parks was out-of-the-way. Looks like they made a pretty bad decision.
She was a drug user according to her arrest records and a Lakota levy supporter–which is kind of the same thing. She was WLW’s way of becoming more “inclusive” to a new demographic that hasn’t typically listened to talk radio. Why do these things keep happening to WLW?
Southern Ohio, specifically Butler County isn’t known for its wildlife—but there are enough RINOs migrating around that it rivals only the Serengeti of Africa. This is largely due to the State Central Committee seat that the socialite Patti Alderson holds which keeps those RINOs in seats they otherwise wouldn’t be able to hold. Ann Becker is running against Patti Alderson to attempt to set things right in Butler County and if you listen to the broadcast Ann did with Brian Thomas on 55 KRC below, you will begin to understand how Patti has loaded Butler County full of so many RINOs and learn what you can do about it. What’s even stranger, given the sometimes intense anger that the Liberty Movement is uttering these days toward the establishment commitment toward RINOs (Republican In Name Only—people like Don DIXON) is that Patti listed them on her promotional website as a badge of honor like her own zoo listing. That’s how out of touch she is. Now a few names on her list, also shown below, are decent people—like Margy and T.C. Rogers. Roger Reynolds most of the time is like a tennis ball being knocked over a net from Liberty to establishment—so he’s sort of on the fence—but most of the rest are clearly RINOs. Not that they are bad people, but they are definitely establishment anchors who lean far too left for the current Liberty tide that is emerging. To prove it, just click on the hotlinks below, and you will see the evidence. Here is the information that Patti listed on her website promoting her ability to maintain the status quo by continuing to feed the RINOs of Butler County.https://t.co/3jNX1vRG7N
“Patti Alderson is a blessing to our Community. I do not know where Butler County would be without her commitment and leadership.”
— Margy Conditt, State Representative
“During her time on the State Central Committee, Patti Alderson worked with conservatives across Ohio to build a strong Republican Party. Winning elections is the first step in the battle to preserve and protect our values – we need Patti Alderson to keep up the fight.” — Tim Derickson, State Representative
intelligent persistence to bring the resources necessary to help solve the most pressing needs of our community.” — TC Rogers, Vice President Butler County Commissioner
“It is my honor and privilege to endorse Patti Alderson for Butler County’s State Central Committeewoman. Patti is one of the most upstanding, hard-working leaders I’ve ever known. She is a tireless community volunteer, philanthropist, and a top-notch civic leader. Patti is one of those rare individuals who never stops “giving back.” I wholeheartedly ask for your support for Patti Alderson!”
— Nancy Nix, CPA, Butler County Treasurer
“Patti is a staunch Conservative dedicated to the values this County was founded upon and deserving of our vote.” — Greg Wilkens, Butler County Engineer
“I endorse Patti Alderson whole heartedly for State Central Committee. Patti is a person of strong character and moral judgment. Please join me in supporting Patti Alderson on March 15.” — Roger Reynolds, Butler County Auditor
The Black Rhino of the Serengeti are herbivores who mostly eat greenery—brush, grass and other plant life. The RINOs of Butler County eat lots of greens as well, but this often comes in the form of paper money. All the RINOs listed on Patti’s endorsement page are zoo feed RINOs who come to her home and charity events to be fed and have largely been domesticated by her. She controls them, she keeps them fat, dumb, and happy, and she maintains her grip on their existence with her seat on the State Central Committee.
The Black Rhinos of Serengeti are almost always on endangered lists because they have been overly hunted. To this day, they are a protected species. The RINOs of Butler County are also a protected species—they are protected by the State Central Committee but in reality they need to be hunted and thinned for the sake of Liberty. Because, they are over grazing and stripping away all the wonderful resources our fine county provides with a bottomless pit of hunger that always needs to be fed. If Patti weren’t so rich with what they want to eat, they’d erode away with the desire to have full stomachs that could never be filled. So while we want to preserve the Serengeti Rhinos we want to hunt the Butler County RINOs to near extinction for the good of all of us.
Patti lists them above the way an African hunter might mount the head of her trophies on a wall for the admiration of her peers. As she poses next to each picture of all her trophies she looks like a Cabela’s ad for new hunting gear. Except Patti doesn’t just mount those RINOs on her wall, she breeds them first and is heavily responsible for the over population of RINOs in Butler County that we currently have—the insidious money hungry establishment types who are stripping away everything our county offers in favor of their full bellies.
If you want to hunt them and thin out the herd of RINOs that are migrating all over Ohio, then vote for Ann Becker to return the county of Butler to its natural beauty by preventing the overgrazing of the RINOs that Patti Alderson feeds so passionately. Put a stop to Patti Alderson’s zoo full of overgrazing RINOs—and vote to preserve Butler County.
As I have been advocating for Ann Becker to replace Patti Alderson on the State Central Committee seat it’s important to understand who the socialite is and why she needs to be replaced. I often say there is a lot you can learn about a person by the way they dress. Well, further you can tell a lot about people by their biographies and resumes. Personally, I have found this particularly difficult for me to display myself because I have such a colorful background with so many aspects to attempt to cover. In publishing for instance they want you to zero in on just things that are specific to the relevancy of your published work. So I’ve never enjoyed doing them because they feel like I’m always leaving out bits of myself. The same holds true for professional tasks—things you get paid for. If you are doing high level work people don’t necessarily care if you like to read and climb mountains for recreation. They just want to know what you can do for them and how much money you can make. However, a phony is someone who tries to include everything they’ve ever done to attempt to pad their experience into appearing vast when in fact they are just social monstrosities who have only obtained anything in their life through their marriage and the luck of the draw financially. That likely is the situation with Patti Alderson as she exhibited quite gloriously in the bio she provided on her campaign website. Notice how she includes just about everything she’s ever done for anybody, almost as ridiculous as including going to restroom, taking out the trash, and hosting latté sipping meetings with Lakota levy supporters for the purpose of raising property taxes on residents not as rich as she is—then calling herself a Republican because the candidates gather at her house looking for a donation to their war chests.

Here’s the problem with this listing, if I listed everything I’ve done over the last 30 years—like she has—I couldn’t contain the contents on less than ten pages of similar exhibition. I mean she lists things like her involvement in the West Chester Tea Party and her husband’s political endeavors as parts of her experience. She also listed a phone bank on Election Day for George Bush. Those are ridiculous things to mention. For instance, and I only mention it because its relevant to this blog site and concerns Patti directly because of dealings I’ve had with her through mediators—but I would never consider mentioning the $10,000 that was donated through Yes to Lakota Kids and all the media work I did for that campaign as part of my “history” even though it was more than successful. If I listed every little thing the way she has it would be a small booklet. Patti’s involvement with the West Chester Tea Party is interesting—I went to nearly every meeting they had from 2010 to 2013 and she was never there. She contributed some space she had in one of her properties to Ann Becker so that she could keep tabs on the group, but withdrew that support after Ann went after John Boehner’s speaker seat for being an ineffectual RINO. The West Chester Tea Party was then booted out to the street to find another location as area establishment Republicans went on a quiet crusade to destroy the group. I don’t see that Patti mentioned anything about any of that. She just mentioned the West Chester Tea Party on her bio as if she were some kind of member. That certainly lends speculation to the relevancy of all her listings.
What I see when reading all this is a modern woman who is struggling to appear as a liberated female from behind the rather large professional shadow of her husband. She doesn’t have much experience at anything except what the money they’ve made has allowed her to enjoy from strictly a top down position. It’s easy to sit on boards of directors when the people who put you there only want the money and resources that you could provide them with. It’s quite another thing to slug it out on the ground level the way that Ann has had to do—and earn everything that they’ve ever achieved the hard way. Patti’s bio is quite clearly one written by a woman wanting to appear as a self-achieving feminist who wants to be socially enamored. Now that is specifically something she needs to resolve within herself and her family—but she includes everyone in her district when she runs for private office with public motivations that have an impact on elections with an obvious neurosis not founded in self-reliance.
I have seen Patti and her husband at a Tea Party event in Liberty Township where Susan McLaughlin and Katy Kern were singing praises to her for some contribution she made. Patti seemed pretty happy to be put in the spotlight that way, which I suppose was nice. But at West Chester, she shortly withdrew her support of Ann Becker’s West Chester Tea Party after the 2012 elections when Becker came out against John Boehner and John Kasich—because neither politician had shown themselves to be “conservative” enough. About that time Susan moved in the direction of Patti, membership declined dramatically in Liberty Township at the Tea Party group there, and a small little war within the Republican Party emerged with people like Ann and I on one side, then Patti and Susan on the other. Of course Patti is friends with everyone, at least socially. However her actions behind the scenes can be quite scandalous. Nobody of any authority has called her out on anything, because essentially they all wanted to be invited to her next event—for the opportunity to solicit funds for their future campaigns. That’s not to say she’s a bad person, but from personal experience, I can’t say that she has anything of any experience to dictate that she’s anything but a socialite who sways to the political left, and intends to hold the Republican Party of Butler County in that philosophic position with her influence gained exclusively through campaign contributions. Her padded bio adds fuel to that fire by confirming her vast insecurities as a modern woman who wants to be everything to everybody but can’t hide the fact that she just got lucky and married the right guy. That might make her a nice neighbor and charitable donor—but to sit on an important seat in a significant Central Committee position that makes decisions for the future of the Republican Party—Ann Becker is by far the best choice.
We made a deal before this meeting to not put the levy on the ballot which I was largely responsible for, along with others. Patti was working with the board to advance a tax increase on private property. And she wants to run the Republican Party? She needs to put that on her “bio,” that she supported tax increases on property her friends develop. She put everything else on there. Why not that? Because she’s a Republican in Name………………………..Only.
After several politicians attacked Donald Trump for not being a conservative during the CBS debate on Saturday February 13th 2016, have a look at the facts percolating from history. Ted Cruz was about 4 years old in 1988 and Jeb Bush was still trying to leave his mother’s side. Marco Rubio was playing in coloring books and John Kasich was still trying to figure out if he was a democrat or something else. Yet Trump, who at the time had no real desire to be President of the United States was on top of the world and had done what many thought was impossible. Well, here is a video from CNN with Trump talking about being a personal guest to the GOP convention of the Bush family and talking about why he was a Republican.
Pass this video around to your friends this week when those struggling establishment politicians try to say that Trump is not a conservative. The Bush family may be nice but they screwed up the economy and the whole situation in Iraq. They brought us Clinton and the debacles that followed. Trump had a reason to withdraw his support from the Bush family. He knew them personally, and they let him down. The evidence is in these videos.
Share this with everyone you can ahead of the South Carolina primary of 2016. The facts are the facts. Watch these videos and let the truth fly free.
If you ever wondered why nothing much changes in politics over the years it’s because the same type of people run State Central Committee. The State Central Committee is the governing body of the Ohio Republican Party. There are two representatives from each district embodying the 33 senate districts in Ohio who manage all the party affairs including day-to-day operations, fundraising, and deciding on which candidates to support and provide resources to. They are the reason that certain people once elected are almost impossible to remove and are instrumental in maintaining a mundane status quo. Currently in the Butler County region, which is one of the most conservative areas in America, Patti Alderson is the representative most responsible for preserving status quo politics—like supporting John Kasich—who might as well be a democrat, and John Boehner. Patti has held the position since 2012 and has for years been a large political insider donating vast sums of money to political candidates. Around Butler County, if someone wanted to run for a Republican office, they had to get to know ol’ Patti.
Patti and I don’t like each other. It goes way back to the Lakota levy situation where I called her massive swarms of pro tax neurotic, guilt plagued area mothers latte sipping prostitutes. Actually, it goes back further than that. Her husband, who made all the money that Patti now enjoys as one of the wealthiest people in Southern Ohio was a supporter of mine in the No Lakota Levy effort to keep down the taxes in one of Ohio’s largest school districts in one of the most affluent areas. Patti, being completely disconnected from the realities of how taxes might influence the bottom line of her husband’s business, was a massive tax and spend liberal type siding with the progressives advancing the incursions against property values. To be honest I felt really sorry for her husband who I measured as a good man caught in a classic struggle with a wife who was out of touch with what her spouse did to make all the vast wealth she enjoyed. He never complained to me about it, but I could tell from a distance what the situation was, and I felt sorry for him. A powerful man like he was shouldn’t have to provide me with cloak and dagger financial support while publicly supporting a wife who was pretending to be a Republican while at the same time advancing all the traits of a ranting progressive. It was clear to me even before Patti was elected to the State Central Committee that the kind of watered down politicians we were getting into elected office were because of people like Patti who were liberals in how they lived and only played the part of Republicans because regionally, it’s a conservative area and is required for anybody who wants to hold a prominent position socially. (COUGH, DON DIXEN. CLICK TO REVIEW.)
It came to a head between her and me when her tax increase supporters started taking personal shots because they were getting frustrated that they couldn’t win an election against my group, No Lakota Levy. Several members who worked with me on that tax resistance group also worked with Patti at the Community Foundation, which is a charity group and she was using that to try to undermine my group internally. So we proposed an offer to donate money to kids suffering from the political stalemate and pay for their high sports fees. The Community Foundation at first was receptive, but then because the goal of Lakota schools in having the sports fees in the first place was an extortion tactic, Patti withdrew her support basically using me as her reasoning declaring that I was too controversial. That forced me and my partners to create our own Foundation, which we did. I put together a press release and we donated $10,000 to poor kids who couldn’t pay the sports fees at Lakota. I gave the Enquirer an exclusive, did the usual WLW interviews and did press for Channel 5, 9 and 12. Shortly after that Patti came after me directly joining with the Lakota school board to discredit me any way she could. They went for my jugular. If I had been a normal person, I might have been totally destroyed—and that’s the way Patti Alderson rolls, and how Republicans in Butler County have held on to their seats of power. She’s not alone, but she’s a major player—because of the wealth her family enjoys now. I said what I said about her supporters because it was obvious she was working with Lakota to use children to drive up tax increases and it personally made me sick—because she called herself a Republican. Most of the men went along with the tax hungry wives because they wanted peace in their households so I needed to illustrate the situation the way I am uniquely positioned to do. CLICK HERE TO REVIEW.
Well times change and now my friend Ann Becker and a partner of her acquaintance Walter Simms are running against Patti to unseat her. I know it’s hard for Ann because she and Patti were always pretty good friends but the big difference is that Ann cannot pretend to be a Republican—she just is to the core of her personality. Being a Republican to Ann actually means something—it’s not a social-climbing device intended to get into the latest charity parties hosted by the Chamber. To Ann, being a Republican is serious business and it has been her mission since I’ve known her to return our government mechanisms to a constitutional republic, not a society of bootlickers trying to appease people like Patti who want to be everything to everybody. So guess who I’m supporting for State Central Committee?
Dear reader, if you want to make me happy—if you’d like to pay me back for all the years you’ve enjoyed reading these words and all the antics on radio broadcasts, and calling it like it is—then show up to vote to destroy Patti Alderson politically. Can you do that little thing for me? Vote for Ann and be sure to utterly destroy Patti Alderson. Patti is not a Republican. She was one of the first people we identified as a RINO way back leading up to 2012. The more I learned about her the more obvious it was. If she wasn’t she wouldn’t have worked so hard to personally destroy me just for standing in the way of higher taxes she desired. What she did I will never forget or forgive and I’m absolutely sure I’m not the only one. I don’t wish her and her husband harm physically, but Patti shouldn’t be involved in politics unless she wants to host a fund-raiser. She should not have her hands on the daily operations of the Republican Party in any legislative fashion. She is a Kasich supporter; it is because of people like her that we have Jeb Bush still thinking he should run for president. She helped keep Boehner in power longer than he should have been and helped swipe away challengers to his seat with mechanisms of similar manipulative aggression as she showed to me—just for being in the way of what she wanted.
I know Ann inside and out—I know her very heart and I am certain that she can be trusted with such an important seat of power. Honestly we need 66 Ann Becker types on the State Central Committee but I can handle two for now, Ann herself and her partner in this endeavor Walter Simms. I met Walter’s wife just the other day and I could see on her face that Walter had her permission to be a real fighter for the sanctity of the Republican Party. When I saw her face I actually thought of Patti’s husband and how he projected the opposite sentiment. For his sake, I wish Patti hadn’t made the decision to become public property by running for office—because a lot of this is embarrassing for his family. For his sake I wish they could just stay shadow donors—because then stories like this could just stay in the kitchens and living rooms of Butler County. But she decided to be a public person, so that puts the issue out there for debate, and her character and motivations certainly deserve scrutiny, because she sells herself as one thing yet advances an entirely different philosophy. Regarding the old friendship between Patti and Ann—I’m sure it hurts to consider but it’s good strategically to keep you enemies close so you might influence their behavior. Fortunately for all of us, Ann was never seduced into the manipulative arms of the latté sippers which made up Patti’s core group of levy supporters and progressive social insurgents.
Another name who was on No Lakota Levy with me was Todd Hall, who now runs the Republican Party. I liked Todd, but we haven’t spoken much since that time because when Patti put down the gauntlet on the men in the Republican Party at the time they had to pick sides. His attitude toward me was like the kid who was playing with the neighborhood rebel and his parents were putting a stop to it. I understood of course. It takes courage to stay by the side of people who are going against the grain. Unfortunately for the Republican Party, the same kind of thing happens every day, whether the target is David Kern of Liberty Township, or J.D. Winteregg who was challenging John Boehner’s seat a few years ago. Or, Ann Becker herself being booted out of a John Kasich Rally for protesting Common Core. Todd was just doing what his bosses told him too—even though he was supposed to be running the party. The sad thing about that is Patti let that happen to her old friend in such an embarrassing way. If that’s how she treats friends and in my case, neighbors who her husband supported—just think of how she’ll treat people she doesn’t care about.
Do the Republican Party a favor—boot her ass out on March 15th. Early voting begins on February 17th. I’ll likely be in line to cast my vote in favor of Ann first. She’s a great person and someone who is tested under fire. She is unflappable. She cannot be corrupted. She may be a bit too idealistic at times, but that only helps her in this kind of fight. Patti is entrenched and it won’t be easy to get rid of her. So it will take everything you’ve got dear reader to dispose of her politically. But this is your chance to do so. Don’t blow it! Vote for Ann Becker and Walter Simms for District 4 State Central Committee and take a very important step toward fixing the Republican Party for the next generation. It’s RINO hunting season and Patti is the mama bear. With her out of power, the cubs will be easy—metaphorically speaking of course.
Gosh, it’s been around 6 to 7 years of effort, but you can clearly see how the Tea Party has shaped local and national elections. I remember how it was back then, and I can clearly see it now. On the national stage Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Rand Paul were all heavy Tea Party candidates and three of those four are current front runners as the primary season is starting. Old traditional politicians like John Boehner under great pressure vacated his 8th District Congressional seat in Ohio—to a large extent because of the Tea Party, especially in his home town. A silent insurrection has been taking place on the Republican Central Committee behind the scenes and the politics under the feet of Boehner changed into something unrecognizable to him and his donor base. It was never anything against Boehner, but he made himself a public person, and that meant he had to make a choice. The West Chester Tea Party expected him to be authentic, even if the Washington lobbyist culture was fine with people who were Republican in Name Only. So John resigned and now in early 2016 there will be an election starting on March 15th to fill his seat. And out of all the forums to flush out the new candidates, the West Chester Tea Party was at the heart of vetting those future politicians. Not everyone running showed up, but the most relevant did and they can be seen in the following video. It is interesting to watch how the political dialogue has changed over that relatively short period of time. A lot of the things discussed in this video would have been avoided before 2010 by all politicians. Things have certainly changed.
So who’s my pick after watching that video, well for me it’s quite clear—it’s Warren Davidson. I would have liked to have had J.D. Winteregg and Jim Spurlino speak at the event, but they were no shows. In the past I have supported J.D., but if you can’t make it to the West Chester Tea Party events in the south of the 8th District, then those candidates don’t really want to win. You have to get those people on your side, or you won’t win the 8th District. Just some friendly advice—guys. Warren Davidson out of all the candidates on stage at Butler Tech was the clear front-runner. There were things about some of the other candidates that I liked, but they weren’t the type of people who could hope to survive in the emerging Washington landscape. I watched Warren even when he wasn’t speaking. He didn’t make any disrespectful faces when the other candidates were talking—even when what was sometimes said came out bizarrely. With Warren, it’s what he didn’t say that told me he was ready to stand up against the lobbyists of K-Street and represent the 8th District correctly. I spoke to him after the debate and measured that he was the type of guy who would still be a good representative even after a few years in Washington.
I liked Terri King, but she came across to me as an amateur. She dressed professionally, except for her shoes yet had a down-to-earth approach. That might be fine for a public relations person working at the county fair, but representing the 8th District in a far away land wraith with evil takes a thick skin and a steady hand—and Terri didn’t show me that she could do anything but complain like a born again Christian at the treachery before her. You can tell a lot about a person by their shoes. With her, high heel shoes would have been better, or work boots if she wanted to come across as approachable. But the slippers with the suit just didn’t work. I liked what she said, but she projected to me that all she could do was complain. When it came time for action, she reminded me of someone who would hesitate in a moment of indecision—for instance, it’s a late night vote before a government shutdown. She has campaigned on the issue and knows she’s expected to stand by her platform. But she’s in Washington making over six figures a year. The media are camped outside her office door hounding her every time she heads to the elevator. And she doesn’t want to reveal that she’s ready to cave on the vote-because she likes the money that is showing up on her doorstep every day—for really the first time in her life. The suit she wore shows me she knows how to impress at a first glance. But the slippers said she wasn’t ready for a real fight. I don’t care if she has issues with her feet, if she can’t wear proper shoes; she’s not ready for the hostile environment in Washington. You have to be ready for war on every level, from the street fights to the most subtle psychological warfare and not betray the 8th District. She’s not ready or able. She might do better with some local seat in the safety net of Butler County, but in Washington, she’d be eaten alive the first week.
I met Kevin White before the West Chester event and thought he was a nice guy. He was very polite and conscientious. But he is entirely too systematic to be a congressman. His military life has made him unable to think very nimbly. He struck me as someone who would happily fall in line with House leadership and do as instructed—which might not always be bad depending on whom the leadership is at the time—but as an individual, he didn’t have the mind to represent the 8th District. Through his handshake I could tell he was much better at taking orders than thinking on his own. I’d hire him to be a pilot in less than a second—he comes across as very competent and procedural—but not someone who can smell a rat in a conversation with a lobbyist from a powerful pharmaceutical company. To represent the 8th District of Ohio after the way that John Boehner caved to so much pressure embarrassing us thoroughly on a national stage, White is too much of that old type of politician, a guy trying to get elected because of his service in the military and little else—because of his willingness to “sacrifice for the “greater good.” That is a bad recipe for a congressional representative because once a lobbyist can make a case for the greater good whether the topic is war or health care—people like White will lose. I may support Donald Trump for president who sometimes says that things are for the “greater good,” because I expect congress to stand in the way if things get too rough to keep our constitutional republic in check. We don’t need a bunch of softies in tomorrow’s congress. We need tough people who are smarter than whoever is in the White House.
The questions presented by the Tea Party audience did a good job of shaking the candidates off their talking points and forcing them to think on their feet. That style of debate likely kept some of the other candidates from participating. The ones who did stumbled a lot—which wasn’t bad. They may have felt they came across weak, but we had to see how they handled some curve balls. Some of them didn’t come across strongly at all and they were clear amateurs not ready for such a high office. I’m not going to embarrass them—they know who they are. Even though I could say the same about Warren Davidson’s military record as I did about White—there was clearly another gear to Davidson. He showed an ability to think quickly and improvise that was missing from the other candidates. Honestly, that will be the most valuable trait for the next 8th District congressional representative. Whoever it is will have to be able to walk literally into Hell and still maintain themselves as a frosty white honest conservative who can dish out the hits as well as take them without having ruffled feathers. Davidson clearly showed that he had that ability.
Probably the most interesting candidate was James Condit Jr., who showed up late looking like he had just fallen out of a bus that he was sleeping in. He positioned himself on the side of the stage sitting behind the curtain half the night. I’m sure I had heard his name before, but my impression of him was that he was barely hanging on to reality. However, he was very articulate and intelligent when he spoke. He was the most at ease in front of a crowd and had great command of his tonal inflections. He was either a very slick salesman, an Alex Jones loon, or a highly intelligent eccentric. I can’t say that I disagreed with him even though he dropped some bombs during his speaking moments. I’ve written about some of the things he brought up, as I sometimes agree with Alex Jones. Sometimes reality is stranger than fiction and Condit was clearly functioning from that zone of thought. But for the purpose of this article, it was clear to me that he wasn’t serious about representing the 8th District. He’s only running for office to get some media coverage to play his part of Paul Revere announcing the conspiracies that are not only coming, but have already long been here. Condit wants to be on stage, so he’s running for office to get a platform. He’s not serious about the office—otherwise he would have been on time and would have presented himself differently.
I personally know J.D. and thought he should have come to this Tea Party event regardless of whatever was on his schedule. It was important. For what he went through to challenge John Boehner just a few years ago, I would have expected him to be there. But he wasn’t, and Warren Davidson showed himself as a more than viable candidate. As for Jim Spurlino—I like some of the things he has been saying, particularly in relation to Donald Trump, but he should have been there too—but wasn’t. If he really wanted to shake off the controversy of the mystery envelope that showed up under his door—which I’ll cover in a later article, he should have showed up to defend himself. To my mind, if he made mistakes that put him in a compromising position, he shouldn’t be running for congress. If he can’t handle little temptations between marriages—he won’t stand a chance in Washington. The girls like powerful men, compromises will be presented to him every day and you can tell in his campaign ads that his wife wants him to congressman too much. This 8th District job isn’t for softies or guys who like tits and ass at gentlemen clubs. I know lots of construction guys and I like working with them—and I understand the culture—they are the real men who build America. There is a place in the world for New York New York in Franklin and burger places like Hooters. Hard core helmet busting construction guys who work for people like Spurlino sometimes need that kind of environment. It’s not good for family life at home, but it helps to bust knuckles over steel and concrete in the company of men. I don’t do things like that, but I understand the personality type. But in Washington, T&A comes with lobbyists hooks connected to them and if Spurlino made that mistake even once in his life, he’s disqualified in my mind—because K-Street is a thousand times worse. A candidate in the 8th District has to be able to walk through the fires of Hell unscathed with their integrity intact every day, and looking into the eyes of all the people on stage that night, only Warren Davidson has that ability.
In 2016 with all that’s going on and will happen over the next four years, the representative of the 8th District in Ohio needs to be a tough guy who can shoulder temptation without yielding to it. And he’ll need to have the same tenacity after four years in office. Whoever it ends up being better be ready to wear the proper shoes, because the fight will not be easy—in fact, it will likely be the hardest thing they have ever done in their lives—and that includes life and death situations. This is not a light election cycle. It may be the most important any of us will face for another century. So you better make it count.
I’ll be unusually brief on this article to encourage regular people into reading and watching it. The following video was shot at the West Chester Tea Party forum at Butler Tech hosting the candidates running for John Boehner’s old seat. I know a few of the guys, but not much detail, except what we learned in the video. So prior to the March 15th primary vote—which will this year be extremely important—more so than most years—you should watch this video and determine who you want to vote for based on this candidate forum.
For those who are not particularly up-to-date on what the 8th District is, it’s the congressional district John Boehner formally represented. It’s a large district that encompasses the wealthy southeastern portion, and extends all the way up through the farms of middle Ohio into Darke County. The next congressman needs to be someone who can deal with a president that will be extremely unconventional—as mainstream politics is on the way out. So keep that in mind when voting. Hopefully, there is something in this video that leads you to the correct answer.
Remember to vote on March 15th, 2016 and pass this along to a friend so they can become educated on who the candidates are, and how they might represent the 8th District in Ohio.
I was not surprised that Donald Trump won in New Hampshire. I’m happy to see that the polls were correct, and with that measure, Trump shouldn’t have any trouble in South Carolina or Nevada either. I have stated many times why I support Donald Trump for President, so I am glad that he is beginning to pull out ahead from the pack, and that the reality of that is beginning to set in. I know there are many of my liberty fighting friends who don’t understand why a guy like me would support Trump, but they will in time. Some were beginning to understand after Trump’s acceptance speech in New Hampshire, seen below. The world is beginning to see what a Trump White House would look like, and they are starting to see the big picture.
The first sign of this new era, which is great for those who truly love America, could be seen in the melt-down that the left-winged web sites spewed upon realizing how strongly Trump finished. I truly enjoyed the Huffington Post diatribes given how they behaved at the start of his campaign. It is for all the reasons that “they” hate Trump that I support him. He is a conqueror, and that’s what we need right now. We don’t need a Constitutional attorney or a sweet talker; we need a tough guy who can beat up on the insurgents. Trump is that kind of guy.
It seems many missed the story prior to the New Hampshire primary, that Trump had received a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize:
Kristian Berg Harpviken, a Nobel watcher and head of the Peace Research Institute in Oslo, Norway, told Agence France-Presse that he received a copy of the nomination letter sent to the Norwegian Nobel Committee that selects the recipient.
According to the letter, the author of which was not disclosed, Trump deserves the prize for “his vigorous peace through strength ideology, used as a threat weapon of deterrence against radical Islam, ISIS, nuclear Iran and Communist China.”
This is just one example of how Trump is changing the very definition of things, and the longer he continues, the better things get for traditional America. With each state that he wins, the radical leftist utterances we’ve all had to endure for years swings back in the proper Constitutional direction. When people wonder if they can trust Trump or to know if he is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, just study his children and his personal wealth. You can tell a lot of things about a man by the type of lifestyle that he lives. Trump doesn’t drink, he doesn’t smoke, and he has never done drugs. He’s rich and beyond financial influence, he’s smart and leans more toward Rush Limbaugh and Alex Jones than Glenn Beck. And his kids are better than him in morals and ethics. He can outsmart the political left with a wit none of them embody and is the best man for the job of president at this particular point in history.
So it’s on to South Carolina. I am looking forward to watching him uncover more of America state by state. If he can redefine the trend of the Nobel Peace Prize, he can do just about anything—and for them, those who love the American flag; they have a lot to look forward to. To those who hate that flag, they hate Trump and everything that is coming.
If there was any doubt about what I said about Millennials, CLICK HERE TO REVIEW, Cam Newton after the Super Bowl confirmed it for all time. Watch his press conference below, the dynamic Superman character who sold himself all this years as an invincible indomitable spirit sat slouched and pitiful near tears and pouting about his embarrassing loss to the Denver Broncos. The kid learned a hard lesson at Super Bowl 50—something he should have learned by his parents many years earlier. But as a coddled Millennial, he used his natural ability, and his race to advance through the ranks of life and he arrived as the MVP at the Super Bowl haughty and having fun. He should have known that the Denver players would want to knock his head off, yet he thought he was going to cruise to a win. And instead of taking it like a man, stoically, he pouted like a child who had just been told by him mom that he couldn’t have candy at the grocery store check-out line.
I’ll admit that I was rooting for the Broncos to win, but to my family I had been talking Cam Newton up as one of the best players in the NFL. I watched many of the Carolina games this year and thought they were the best team in football. Honestly, I wanted to see Cam Newton do well in the Super Bowl. Really, Carolina hadn’t been tested much until they played in the Super Bowl and the Denver D decided to blitz the hell out of Newton to throw him off. That’s part of the game and the young Carolina quarterback clearly wasn’t prepared. He showed up at the game planning to dominate and cruise to a victory—because everyone seemed to be telling him that he was the greatest gift to mankind. And he obviously believed it. Cam didn’t account for the fact that everyone on the Denver defense wanted to personally mount the MVP’s head to their headboards. For Newton, it was easy for him to appear dominate when his team was winning, but he didn’t have the same swagger when they were losing and that’s the heart of the problem.
When he lost he didn’t stand up and take the licks. Everyone understands how hard it must be for him to lose such an important game, but what he did was reprehensible. Rather than take responsibility for the loss, like he should have—because he had lost the will to fight by the fourth quarter, he blamed others. That much was evident when he lost the last fumble of the game, when he didn’t dive into the pile to retrieve it. Newton had spent the entire season playing with the mind of every player that opposed him with audacity and magnificent aggression. But he couldn’t show the same confidence when it came to working from behind. The Denver Broncos noticed that and turned Cam’s tactics against him—thoroughly embarrassing the MVP of 2015.
If you are going to wear the Superman symbol, you better be super even in the worse possible circumstances, otherwise people who want to knock you off your pedestal will crush you at the first opportunity. I can sympathize with how Cam feels. I’ve felt that kind of disappointment for other things. On a different stage, but very similar circumstances—Donald Trump went though it over the results of the Iowa election. Even though many might say he acted poorly after that defeat, his first reaction was to be gracious and maintain a mountain of security. Supporters of such people want to see confidence in the people they admire. Cam didn’t give his supporters confidence that he’d be back and better than ever. He just pouted because things didn’t work out in his mind the way he wanted and somewhere in his past someone taught him that sobbing like a child wasn’t disgraceful—it was acceptable. He didn’t look like a 6’ 5” Superman; he looked like an eight year old child who had been told no by his mother. Granted, at only 26 years old, that wasn’t that long ago. In many ways, Cam Newton is still a child—he is compared to me. I remember being his age and having the screws of life turned down on me so hard that it was hard to lift my hand to put food in my mouth, the pressure was so great. I understand. But I never cried about it. I put on my inner Superman and took on the world, and eventually won time and time again.
Cam the Millennial should have known that what makes you a legend is not just winning. Payton Manning is a legend, and he has not always won. It’s about getting back on the horse and fighting harder, and harder, and harder until you wear out and dominate everyone against you. Honestly just sitting at home I was thinking like Wade Phillips. My thoughts were that if the Broncos could knock Cam on his ass that they’d gain leverage on the young kid and take him out of his game. The dabbing that Cam does after a touchdown has become the leading news story of the 2015 NFL year. Phillips obviously used that motivation to drive his players to a froth of aggression. Watching Phillips body language during the game it was obviously he said something. He confirmed it after the victory by saying to Newton on Twitter:
“A little too much Dab will undo you!” Phillips tweeted from his @sonofbum Twitter account before the Broncos headed to the airport in San Jose.
His defense was tired of the Panthers’ dancing antics and wanted to shut them down.
Broncos coach Gary Kubiak was asked about Phillips’ tweet during his Monday morning news conference. While a reporter read the text of the tweet aloud, linebacker Von Miller nearly fell off the chair he was sitting in just off the stage.
Kubiak said he had not seen Phillips’ tweet but acknowledged it was not out of character for Phillips.
“He gets carried away with that Twitter sometimes,” Kubiak said.
Cam built up that anger against him and when it mounted, he couldn’t deal with it. Instead of saying something bold, he simply retreated into a petulant child. It will be really difficult for Cam Newton to return to his former glory now that the scouting report is out on him. Hundreds of NFL players saw the same thing I did in the young man at his press conference. Cam surrendered his swagger, which is part of his game, and it will change him for the worst. I felt bad for the kid, but the blame falls on his parents. Cam Newton has obviously been a spoiled child given most everything in life because of his natural ability and skin color. Once he gets older and losses some of that natural ability he’ll have to rely on his mind, and that is obviously something the kid will struggle with. The wise old Wade Phillips exposed it. Next year, everyone else will too.
What is kind of scary is that a decade and a half ago, Payton Manning would have never done something so immature. He’s been disappointed and short with the press, but he never acted like Cam Newton. I can’t think of anybody who ever has pouted like that who was considered great. There are personalities who lose it, and get aggressive when they lose from the anger they feel, but they never just sit there and pout like a child. What we are seeing is a new breed of grown-up, a generation of Millennials who have been told all their lives they are great, and that they are the best—without ever really being tested, or working hard to become great. Life isn’t about dominating with physical attributes and dabbing to intimidate opponents who are not so gifted. It is about still being great even when you don’t feel like it. Because sometimes that’s the hardest thing to do, and the most important ingredient to greatness that there is. Cam Newton obviously doesn’t have it.
