| Church VS State right here in Indiana | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on3/31/2009 6:33 AM | |
| Mixing politics and religion is normally not a good idea, but there is a storm surrounding the, so called, Catholic university in South Bend inviting our Community Organizer in Chief as the graduation speaker. The truth is simply the truth. Morals are as you find them instead of how you wish them to be, and certain ideas are immutable. Conduct based upon a sliding scale of truth and morality may bring short-term solace, but in the end, misery in proportion to equivocation is the incarnation of what goes around comes around. |  | |

| | I could not say it better | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on3/30/2009 8:30 AM | |
| "The ideal tyranny is that which is ignorantly self-administered by its victims. The most perfect slaves are, therefore, those which blissfully and unawaredly enslave themselves. A truth's initial commotion is directly proportional to how deeply the lie was believed. It wasn't the world being round that agitated people, but that the world wasn't flat. When a well-packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic." --author Dresden James |  | |

| | Moochers | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on3/16/2009 4:15 PM | |
| David Freeman lives in England, but not for much longer. No he isn’t immigrating; he is dying of cancer. It’s David’s misfortune to live in England under its National Health Service, and the bureaucrats who ration taxpayer supported care have declared him redundant. In other words, David Freeman, by virtue of his place of birth, is told to go home and die. &am ... |  | |

| | Moderate Murderers | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on3/16/2009 7:23 AM | |
| Now the Community Organizer in-Chief (COIC) wants to sit down with the moderate Taliban to look for common ground. Moderate is evidently an intriguing idea in his mind. Perhaps he thinks moderate Taliban are something like the moderate Republicans who love working with and fawning over him in Congress. Somehow I doubt he’ll begin with the same level of worship from the moderate mullahs that he gets from Senators Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, a ... |  | |

| | Perverted science. | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on3/10/2009 12:42 PM | |
| Yesterday Obama took the lid off of stem-cell research funding. I don’t have the foggiest scientific understanding of what stem-cell research is. However, I innately understand human nature, and I agree with Thomas Hobbes’s view of man. Without government Hobbes postulated that our lives would be “solitary, nasty, brutish, and short.” |  | |

| | "They have their reward" | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on2/27/2009 9:23 AM | |
| Obama’s tax plan revealed the big fat increase all of us expected. Now we’ll see if his fat cat supporters really meant it when they said they’d gladly pay more taxes. It reminds me of Christ’s words in Matthew 6:2 enclosed below. “Therefore when thou dost an almsdeed, ... |  | |

| | Shhhh! | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on2/26/2009 2:13 PM | |
| Some, not all, of our local democrats seem a little fractious in the wake of our recent electoral successes. They were warned that things wouldn’t go easy for them, but they prefer to take it personally nonetheless. Indeed, we still await the concession speech from one of their prominent local candidates. Defeat, nay, annihilation hurts, but it’s also a mark of good character to accept humiliation gracefully. Sources inside their politburo tell me to watch out for a new strategy. They’ve decided if they can&am ... |  | |

| | Iceberg Dead Ahead! | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on2/24/2009 2:26 PM | |
| Obama makes his first address to Congress this evening, and it’s going to be interesting to see if he’s figured out that he is in over his head. Make no mistake, I wouldn’t want to be in his shoes, but then, I didn’t run for the office. So far he has proposed unsustainable equations based upon faulty assumptions. That, I’m afraid, will result in predictable results. You may remember that ... |  | |

| | Take Us To Our Leader | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on2/23/2009 2:11 PM | |
| We Republicans face two fundamental questions about our future that we must answer soon, or we can forget restoration in 2010 and 2012. We cannot afford the luxury of extended wound licking; it’s time to move on. Nationally, the GOP is in the wilderness, but we will be back sooner than later, indeed, sooner than most people think. First, however, we need a prophet like Newt Gingerich to help us form an idea like the Contract with America, and we must quickly decide which wing of the GOP is the real GOP. Is it Senator Tom Coburn’s wing of conservatism and fiscal responsibility, or wi ... |  | |

| | One to beam up! | | Chairman's Thoughts
| By colweaver on2/20/2009 8:43 AM | |
| It’s increasingly clear to me that I am in the midst of an out-of-body experience, or I am part of a Star Trek away team who has beamed down to a strange planet. This is obviously not the planet I grew up on or the country of my birth. It’s some strange new culture that I increasingly don’t understand but distain. I like Star Trek, so I’m going to assume this isn’t really Earth, and I’m back in uniform again, this time, a ... |  | |

| | Monthly Breakfast If you didn't get up to attend our monthly breakfast, you certainly missed a good one. Fifty eight Republicans joined our future congressman and current Secretary of State Todd Rokita and our State Auditor Tim Berry for great food and an interesting political discussion. Tim's analysis of Indiana's financial situation was enlightening. This was our first time as guests of Committeemen Bill and Brenda Mitchell and their team at the Brooklyn Christian Church. We hope they will volunteer to host us again; they did a great job. read more ...

| | Upcoming Events We have exciting events in the offing. Eighty five Republicans joined us on Saturday 20 Feb to meet four of the 4th District candidates for Congress. On Saturday 20 March the Lieutenant Governor of Indiana Becky Skillman is our guest along with U.S. Senate candidate Marlin Stutzman. The March breakfast is a pancake breakfast hosted by Mae Cooper at the Morgan County Administration Building 180 S. Main St., Martinsville. We'll start at 8:00 AM. Looking ahead there will be no April breakfast because of our annual Lincoln Day Dinner on Thursday 22 April, where our speaker is the former and future Speaker of the Indiana House of Representatives, Brian Bosma. Looking forward to May for the warm weather and a big race, we also have for the first time the Auditor of the State of Indiana Tim Berry attending our breakfast. Again, we are trying a new location for this breakfast: The Brooklyn Christian Church, 7 S. Church Street in Brooklyn. Committeemen Bill and Brenda Mitchell are putting this event together, and it will fun doubling the population of Brooklyn with Republicans on Saturday 15 May at 8:00 AM. read more ...

| | Why so secret? The Morgan County democrats are going to try again. They've called a caucus on 25 July for another attempt to elect a chairman, but the public isn't invited. For the record, every Morgan County Republican caucus held in the last four years has been public. Everyone is invited. Why so secret demos? read more ...

| | FLASH!!! Just like me, local democrats are shocked and surprised by the abrupt resignation of their chairman Daymon Brodhacker. This is an interesting turn of events since the reorganization caucus reelected him only last March. Regardless of his reasons, Daymon Brodhacker is one of the nicest people you’d ever want to meet. While I disagree with his spin of the 2008 election results here in Morgan County, and I certainly would not rate the performance of their commissioner candidate as a gain, those don’t detract from the fact that Daymon was a worthy opponent. Daymon was a hard worker, but unlike some of his candidates, he never allowed his frustrations to effect his good humor. He was the happy warrior who probably knew he was fighting a losing battle, but like Benjamin Guggenheim on the Titanic, he went down like a gentleman. Speaking of the Titanic, it’s hard to find a captain when you know how the story always ends. For Morgan County democrats, election day is like Bill Murray’s alarm clock going off in the movie Ground Hog Day; oh, not again. Good luck Daymon. Speaking on behalf of the entire Morgan County Republican Central Committee, we thank you for honorably serving the electoral process. read more ...

| | | New Poll Poll Numbers – Although President Obama remains personally very popular, views on his handling of federal spending have dropped significantly over the last several weeks. According to the latest Gallup poll, a majority of Americans (51%) disapprove of his handling of federal spending and a plurality (48%) disapproves of his handling of the deficit. The poll also says that President Obama’s favorability rating (67%) is similar to President George W. Bush’s favorability rating (65%) at the same point in his presidency. Also, according to a Rasmussen Reports poll, Americans now trust REPUBLICANS on the economy more than the Democrats 45% to 39%. read more ...
