Re: My Plea to You All

I respect your opinion, but as a Christian, I must support the cadidate that is most Libertarian in viewpoint & principle.  I know many Christians think it is a good thing to regulate morality but I feel confident that God's plan is that we are to live in liberty.  We were made in His image & in that image we find all of our good qualities, the best of human nature.  It is the utmost of service to our fellow man that we protect that nature. We cannot be of service to rob him of choices that he should make. The founders understood this & as good stuarts of the gift of freedom we must also.
Our victory will not come with a Republican takeover of government but with a responsible ownership of it by the people.  That will not happen in a day.

To all Tea Party Patriots,

 

On the eve of the most important vote in this nation to Take America Back from the Socialist/Marxist regime trying to destroy our nation, I have a heavy heart on our direction.

 

I see us as a bunch of foolish people fighting amongst ourselves on who we are voting for, who is the best candidate,  or having issues because some things have not worked out how we wanted them to.

 

We have a common enemy—a group who wants to destroy America by destroying our Constitution, destroying our economy, destroying our Christian faith, and destroying our capitalist system. Instead, they want to institute a Communist, Marxist, Socialist, Islamic/Sharia law Regime in this country.  If allowed to continue, the people now in charge of our Executive, Congressional, and Judicial Branches WILL destroy America as we now know it for you and for your children.

Our 3rd District is headed by a liberal Democratic Candidate that has been in office for 18 years and many times has run unopposed! He is brother-in-law to our newly elected Mayor and is supportive of the Agenda 21 UN plan for Newport News. In addition, he is fully supported by Obama.

Obviously, we need to replace him tomorrow.

 

BUT-----instead of getting behind one candidate in our District where we could all throw our weight (our votes) and oust Bobby Scott---we choose to each stand on our own opinions on why we should not be voting for a GOP candidate or why we should be voting for a 3rd party candidate.

 

This is foolishness!!  The Democrats are laughing at us when we come out with these type of tactics knowing that if we do this, we split the vote and their candidate remains in office. How foolish! We need the strength of a united group behind one candidate that has the clout to take out Bobby Scott.

 

We need a vision of how to win the battles and the war! If we lose this battle tomorrow—we may not have another chance to win the war. There may be NO America as we know it. This is NOT the time to play around in this district.

 

I have repeatedly asked Quigley to step down so we could be united in our votes—to no avail. I have heard people I had respect for fight and argue over this candidate—til I have lost respect for them. 

 

Third party candidates are not the way to win this election—and if we lose this because they have split the conservative vote-and America goes under—I am sure you will never forgive yourself.  Elections have been  won/lost by one vote—and it may be yours that wins or loses this election.

As a Christian—the third party-Libertarian party—has a party platform I cannot support. They may be for limited government, etc—but they are also pro-choice, pro-gay, pro-drugs, etc.   Because the party believes in limited government, they don't believe government should regulate any of this. But our Constitution says, government is to protect the people. Regulating drugs, protecting marriage, protecting life—ARE areas government should be doing.

 

As a Christian, I cannot support the Libertarian platform.

 

Please tomorrow—when it is time to vote—consider that a vote for a third party in this race is a wasted vote.  All of us need to unite behind a candidate tomorrow that can win.

 

Our right choice is Chuck Smith—the only way we can oust Bobby Scott.
