Last year, we Republicans just let slip through our fingers a magnificent opportunity for campaigning, for outreach, for fundraising. What a shame that our party completely ignored the fact that 2004 was our 150th anniversary! The Republican Party was founded in 1854 to oppose the pro-slavery policies of the Democratic Party.

Today’s Republican Party places itself at an immense disadvantage. Republicans are too often on the defensive because most do not know the truth about our Grand Old Party.

Under the chairmanship of Rep. Christopher Cox, Michael Zak wrote the 2005 Republican Freedom Calendar while a Policy Analyst at the House Policy Committee. In the words of Rep.Cox, the calendar was produced "to put some of the many important Republican achievements in advancing civil rights before today's students, families, and citizens from all walks of life who wish to be better informed about our national heritage." The calendar is on the Internet at
