School Levy Info Released

Ohio Opportunity has released information about each Ohio School District that has a levy on the ballot this November.   We have 3 schools with levies on the ballot:  Milford, West Clermont and Western Brown.  Check out the link at the Ohio Liberty Coalition.  Information that you need to know before you vote in November.  The truth is in the numbers.

Another 4 years………

“The 2012 election has often been described as the most pivotal since 1860. ”                                     “Obama’s Second Term Transformation Plans”                        Steve McCann    American Thinker, Sept 24, 2012

The “American Thinker”  has provided a glimpse into another 4 years of ‘hope and change’ if President Obama is re-elected.  Through executive order, he will continue to ‘fundamentally change’ America, even if Congress has majority rule in the both the House (as they do now) and the Senate, which may happen after November’s election.  The check and balance system will continue to fail, as it has these past 2 years.  During these past 4 years, America has been systematically dismantled; this trend will continue.  More BIG Government.  Less Middle Class.  More Taxes.  Continued costs for energy and food.

Undecided voters should read this “American Thinkers” article and see the video below.  “Why I changed my vote……..”

To Serve Willingly…

So this post is very different than my usual posts because it is extremely personal, but I felt that I needed to share this with those who follow.  Yesterday morning, my 21 year old daughter left for Mozambique, which is located in South Africa.  She will be serving in the Peace Corps for the next 2.3 years.  She will be teaching Math.

As you can imagine, my husband and I are extremely proud of her.  We know that she will have the adventure of a life time.  She has a huge heart and has always been extremely caring.  I know that she heard and answered the call to head across the globe to give of herself;  service given willingly.

To serve or give of oneself should always come from the goodness within.  We have been richly blessed with talent and treasure and because so, we in turn are to ‘pay it forward.’  Our charity should be freely given.

Again, Anna’s selfless choice to go to Africa ignited this reflection.  Her choice has brought to the forefront the question of charity and giving freely.  I can’t guarantee it, but I am pretty sure that she wouldn’t have gotten on that airplane this morning if she was forced to go.  If it is forced, then there is resentment.

I guess this has touched my heart because I see “forced giving” with redistribution of wealth agenda from the White House.  (And now, I feel like I must apologize.  It seems that everything now a days reverts back to what is happening to our country, especially as it relates to my children.)  The truth is that we should not be forced to give away what we have.

I am blessed to have a daughter that understands the true meaning of service and giving of herself.  She has done this without anyone forcing her.  It works because it is freely given.  I will miss her greatly, but I know that she is doing what she was called to do.  I ask you all to keep her in your prayers.  Her giving  spirit warms my heart!  Her giving spirit is part of our ‘American Spirit’ and part of what makes our Nation great!

The National Debt…What’s That?

This is a follow up to my post, President Too Busy to Meet with Israel’s Prime Minister.  We now know what is truly important for the President, being on the David Letterman Show.  And when asked about the national debt, our President hasn’t got a clue.

The United States of Obama?

President Obama has a few new logos…. I am speechless.

Let me know what you think.

It’s a Jungle Right Here

Union Township residents, did you know that you just gave Jungle Jim’s another million bucks of your tax money!  That makes a total of $8,500,000.  This was the Clermont Journal ‘s feature article this week.  Lots of questions are being raised about this added million.  Actually, questions about all of the money, are being raised.  “Jungle Jim’s You Oughta Know, You Bought It”  is a story worth reading.  It’s your tax money and you should know about it.   Don’t get me wrong, I am all about  jobs and our township’s prosperity.  But taxpayers shouldn’t be lenders, banks are.

Jungle Jim’s is set to open on Tuesday, September 25th in Eastgate.

U.S. Downgraded Again…

Our Administration continues to make history by allowing our nation’s credit rating to be downgraded for a second time in 2 years.  American Majority Action President and CEO, Ned Ryun comments in his piece, “Another Obama Downgrade for America.”

“Hope and Change” is more like “Rope and Chains!”

Truthful Talk

Whether Mitt Romney was caught on tape unknowingly or speaks directly to a crowd at an event, the facts don’t lie.  Yes, he was caught on tape speaking to donors claiming that 47% of the public receive some kind of entitlement.  And yes, while some pundits believe he could have worded it a little better, facts are facts.    The Blaze has a number of versions of the tape in question, suggesting that the tape may not be as “uncut” as “Mother Jones video” or NBC claims.  You be the judge.

Dick Morris worked with President’s Clinton during his administration.  He has an article entitled, “Mitt Romney is Right.”  Folks, if we continue to listen to the bias media and the left-leaning polls, we would believe that Obama has the Presidential election in the proverbial bag.  This is exactly what the media want us to believe, so we will throw in the towel.  I urge you to give Morris’ article a read.  Facts don’t lie, but those in office will distort all things to keep power.  And with the media manipulating stories and pollsters creating fairy-tale leads, we our eyes fixed on the prize and we must remain Vigilant!

Abracadabra!

This past weekend was a busy weekend of American Majority Activist training in Cleveland.  And yes, even though my van looks like a traveling billboard, I really didn’t think of it while as we parked at the LaQuinta near the Cleveland airport.

You can imagine my surprise when we got up Sunday morning to find that every one of my car magnets had been stripped away.  I have to admit that I was quite angry at the sight.  I quickly came to this conclusion, “if they don’t respect my property, I know they don’t respect their own property or themselves.”  Sad realization, but true.  And why should they, if the property they have is given free and not earned with hard work and determination.

So now, I am replenishing my billboard.  I look forward to getting more “honks” and “thumbs-up” as I shout my political awareness to all that will listen.

It’s All in the Numbers

If anyone needs convincing that our country needs another direction, why not pass these numbers along and use them to sway the folks.  Check out these numbers from American Majority Action below.   Ahhhh…facts are such a terrible thing…..

1.95 – The average cost of a gallon of gas on the day Obama was inaugurated
8 – The number of months since Obama met with his high-powered Jobs Council
12 – Number of now bankrupt companies that received a total of more than $1 billion in green energy grants from the Obama Administration
24 – The percentage increase in federal spending since President Obama took office
104 – The number of rounds of golf played by the President since taking office
Obama has taken office
