Just got this in an email...I concur and I hope Perry’s solid conservative record will earn your support. He voted against Romney’s MA Health Care!
Perry misspoke and I think he meant to say ‘celebrity’.
Please read the following from the leader of the Plymouth Rock/Cape Cod & the Islands Tea Party:
A message to all members of Plymouth Rock/Cape Cod & the Islands Tea Party
I woke up this morning to a flurry of texts, emails, and voice-mails about what Jeff said regarding Sarah Palin’s support. I could say I’m very disappointed in what Jeff said, but given the nature of the press and their nationalization of this race, I don’t think there was a “perfect answer” that could be given by Jeff.
Mr “Slick” or “Smooth” would not be titles I would label to Jeff Perry. Would you want to back him if that’s who he was...a silver tongued suit? If he had answered that he wanted Sarah’s support, the headlines would’ve read, “Perry says he can’t win without Palin’s support!” If you have taken a little time to get to know Jeff, he’s going to win this race on the issues and principles that best represent the people of the 10th district.
Remember, we as Tea Party, are not so concerned with the candidate or their party affiliation. We vote “Principles First”! I’m not writing you all today to ask for your vote for Jeff Perry, that’s Jeff’s job. We just need to stay focused, and not get drawn way off course, by a deliberately deceptive media, that is trying to divide and conquer our cause over issues that have noting to do with our core values and our desire to take our government back!
We have two choices, more Obama fundamental transformation with Keating, or a strong NO vote against Obama with Jeff Perry. It’s your decision.
Thank you,
Michael Petrell
P.S. I have it on good authority that Jeff read and liked Sarah’s book.
The medias at every level skew the words that all candidates say, unless of course they are Obama liberals.
My concern follows the facts that Republicans often eat their own. The Democrats unify ... no matter who, what, when, where.. They vote solidly. There is dissention within the Republicans often. We/they could learn from the Democrats to compromise every now and then.
What is the verse “... strain at a gnat and swallow a camel” That describes the republicans of recent years.
Sarah is a breath of fresh air and all by herself has changed the game. Good for Sarah!
Compromise is an ugly word in politics. and it has accomplished many destructive laws, bills, ear marks, entitlements, etc. Knowing when to ‘hold em’ fast as Kenny Rogers song says, and when to ‘fold em’ is an art that Republicans could use some instruction regarding. MO
Sad for me to say ... after Clinton and the ensuing take over of power with the ‘Contract with America’, ... and the following screw ups with the republicans in power then, I decided they truly like being ‘second fiddle,’ it takes the ‘spotlight’ off them and they can claim too few numbers.
Cynical? Unfortunately, yes, until proved otherwise, I do hold this in the back of my mind still.
God help us in our day. in Jesus name, amen.
