"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

 

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

 

"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792

 

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams

 

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

said she decided last year to challenge Sessions after she attended several meetings between him and local activists.

“Everything became ‘next time’ basically — next debt ceiling fight, next continuing resolution,” Pierson said. “People seem to forget this nation wasn’t founded on going along to get along.


WOW...I couldn't agree more! I gave my senator's office a piece of my mind this morning for saying basically the same thing as Sessions - next time, we couldn't do anything without this, that or the other, yada, yada, yada.

She sounds promising!

Jeff Sessions wins the primary = a vote for Boehner for Majority Leader next January

Jeff Sessions loses the primary = a replacement who will NOT VOTE FOR BOEHNER.

Sessions is for amnesty. He was one of the good guys when he was first elected, now he has gone “native.” Katrina’s story is very interesting. Her mother was 15 when she was born and Katrina was raised in a welfare family. She tells her story of making a choice to be successful and get an education.

Go Katrina.

Whoa, nelly! We're talking about Pete Sessions, of Texas.

Pete used to be my congressman, but he's been in DC too long. He's much closer to Boehner and GOPe than he is to the conservative voters that sent him to DC.

Bona fides/bio...

Katrina Pierson is a Steering Committee member for the Dallas Tea Party and Founder of the Garland Tea Party. As a working single mother, she has transformed into a political activist practically overnight. Mrs. Pierson was recognized by former Senator Fred Thompson as the Tea Party Darling, and was noted to give the most moving speech in the country out of all of the April 15, 2009 Tax Day Tea Party events. Mrs. Pierson has appeared numerous times on local news and talk radio, and has been a frequent guest on Fox News Channel, MSNBC, CNN and Fox Business Channel. She is now the Executive Director of WatchtheVote.org, which serves as a grass-roots watchdog tool for the United States Congress. Serving on the Texas Tea Party Caucus Advisory Committee, her primary goal is to help regain community strength by educating voters and training citizens how to arm themselves with the knowledge to make informed decisions at the polls to conserve liberty and restore the equal pursuit of happiness.

Katrina holds a B.S. in Biology, University of Texas at Dallas
