3. Attend one or more of the events listed in our calendar on this website!! We cannot be the silent majority.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Grassroots Patriots is a 9/12 group based in Lawrenceburg, KY and partners with the Lexington 9/12 group, KY We Surround Them.

From 912project.com:

Do you watch the direction that America is being taken in and feel powerless to stop it?

Do you believe that your voice isn’t loud enough to be heard above the noise anymore?

Do you read the headlines everyday and feel an empty pit in your stomach…as if you’re completely alone?

If so, then you’ve fallen for the Wizard of Oz lie. While the voices you hear in the distance may sound intimidating, as if they surround us from all sides—the reality is very different. Once you pull the curtain away you realize that there are only a few people pressing the buttons, and their voices are weak. The truth is that they don’t surround us at all.

We surround them.

So, how do we show America what’s really behind the curtain? Below are nine simple principles. If you believe in at least seven of them, then we have something in common.

12 Values
Honesty
Reverence
Hope
Thrift
Humility
Charity
Sincerity
Moderation
Hard Work
Courage
Personal Responsibility
Gratitude

The Nine Principles

1. America is good.

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.

8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.

A Surveillance Society or a Free Society?

A Surveillance Society or a Free Society?

By Mark Lerner, for the Constitutional Alliance, Inc.


The Big Question - should government control the people or should the people control government?

Orwell’s prediction of a future big brother government came true. Whether acknowledged or not, Americans now live in a surveillance society.

Most of that American public falls into one of the categories the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) calls “potential threats;” environmentalists, anima… Continue

State Legislatures Should Reign in Congress' Forty-Four Year Spend-a-Thon

Being a Member of Congress must be the best job in the world! Think about it. You can use other people’s (taxpayers) credit to secure and benefit the interests and future of one’s self, one’s friends and one’s family without any responsibility to repay any of the debt. You can go on two-year spending binges; walk away and never owe a dime. You “earn” federal pension vestige with only five years of service. You don’t even have to make tough choices; just stay in the middle of the road being caref… Continue

Is Mr. Lockett's contact form working?

Mr. Lockett,

On August 31st I sent you something through the contact form and haven't received anything in response. I'm left to wonder if your contact for… Continue

Congressman Rangel donates to Ben Chandler…how nice

Broaden your horizons

Greetings all,

I've watched these education boards and found them to be hawking books from folks we all typically agree with. While it is always good to get the batteries recharged by Mark Levin or Glenn Beck's wisdom, I think we might also want to read about what our adversaries are thinking.

The left are energetic writers. With all their "enlightenment", they struggle against each other to get the latest and greatest idea out there. They don't have a monopoly on that particular struggle, jus… Continue

An Open Letter to 6th CD candidate Matt Lockett

Greetings Mr. Lockett!

I have a few questions for you but before I get there I wanted to let you know where I am politically. Also, I'm posting this email on my blogs, this is an open letter to you.

Over the past year or so we've all seen the rise of the American People as TARP, Bailoutmania, and now Healthcare Reform has crept into the national spotlight. Alot of folks have mistaken these "Tea Parties" as Republican activities but you and I know this is not the case. These gatherings have had… Continue

STORM and their activities on 9/11

So tonight I was perusing the pamphlet “Reclaiming Revolution: history, summation & lessons from the work of STORM" and among the other troubling but entirely expected events I read about was this:

On the morning of September 11, STORM convened in Oakland for an emergency meeting. We knew that the fall of the World Trade Center would mark a dramatic shift… Continue
