Weekend Edition: America Rediscovered

On any trip, the destination is the reason for leaving home but, take my advice…
DON’T ignore the journey.
Google maps will get you where you’re going but…OLD school REAL maps are necessary research tools.
I got out the Rand McNally road atlas and looked at the different towns along my route. Then I Googled those towns to find out what might be in them of interest.
After that, I used Facebook to query my friends who might have traveled the same route or lived in the area to ask what THEY thought I should see.
Finally it was off to my GPS to enter addresses.
Last week, I took a quick 3 day road trip to connect with a past I never knew I had until about a dozen years ago. As an adoptee, I found my birth mom in 2001 and started piecing together my real family history. It’s been a passion full of twists and turns each more fascinating than the last.
The old family homestead was in the tiny community of Spade Texas and last week, my sister, mom and stepdad, none of which had ever been to see the old family cemetery, made the trip. My sister from Kearney Nebraska, Mom and Carl from Phoenix and me…From the Grand Canyon.
As we discovered the EXISTING Spade Texas was NOT the site of the OLD Spade Texas and had we not met some very nice but rather perplexed folks at the local EXISTING Spade COOP…We would have never known.

So…Just because I took a few days off to make a road trip doesn’t mean I haven’t been paying attention to the corruption and absurd behavior of our socialist/communist KNOT-HEADED “leadership” in Washington.
There was any NUMBER of things I COULD have taken on today and WAS going to take on but…Then it happened.
Yesterday…
The DICTATOR started DRONING on about DRONING and after nearly an HOUR…Made SUCH a DESPERATE and TRANSPARENT summation that I simply could NOT believe my EARS…
Or his for that matter!!
How ANYBODY could have ears THAT BIG and NOT hear the sound of his own demise COMING AT HIM LIKE A FREIGHT TRAIN is beyond me.
Well Patriots…Gather round. I’m BACK…
It’s FRIDAY and…
I’m fuming.
Well…
GOD’S GIFT TO NATIONAL SECURITY and our GREAT PROTECTOR…
BARACK HUSSEIN ASSHAT OBAMA…lectured us all about HIS TRANSPARENCY REGARDING DRONONG the enemy…WHETHER OR NOT THEY’RE AMERICANS…and his INSIGHTFUL vision for how to deal with FUTURE TERRORIST ATTACKS which, before the election…
HAD ALREADY BEEN ELIMINATED!!!
“AL QUEAD’S DEAD AND GM IS ALIVE!!!!!”
Can somebody…ANYBODY…tell me what he’s campaigning for NOW???

Help Congressman Massie Stop the Internet Tax Mandate
Published By: All Right Magazine on May 23, 2013
But without your support, I know my best efforts will come up short.
The special interests are doing everything they can to ram this misnamed, so-called “Marketplace Fairness Act” into law.
So I’m counting on your action today.
I’m so fired up about this legislation that just last week I took to the House floor with a number of my colleagues to discuss our opposition to this tax-hiking scheme.
But it’s going to take more than special order floor speeches to bring those members on the fence back to our side on this issue.
That’s why I reached out to Campaign for Liberty.
I’ve been keeping an eye on their efforts to oppose this legislation in the Senate, and thanks to Campaign for Liberty members speaking out, the vote on final passage was much closer than it could have been.
I believe we can carry that momentum over and build on it in the House.
You see, I’ve written a letter to House leadership expressing my concerns with this legislation and asking them to simply not bring it to the floor for a vote.
But I could really use your assistance in getting as many members of Congress as possible to sign my letter opposing the Internet Tax Mandate.
You can reach your representative at 202-224-3121.
At its core, this legislation is simply unfair.
It forces companies doing business over the Internet – even those in non-sales tax states – to act as tax collectors for states and local jurisdictions across the country.
A few very large companies are now supporting this legislation because it would help them establish a competitive advantage and smother potential future competitors in red tape.
As rising shipping costs and a stagnant economy continue to depress business activity, attempts to shift the burden of tax collection from state agencies to online retailers outside those states would hinder the development of e-commerce.
The Constitution’s Commerce Clause should be used to help, not impede, the flow of goods and services. As C4L has written before, this legislation flips the Commerce Clause on its head.
Worse yet, the Internet Tax Mandate will replace tax competition between the states with tax harmonization, meaning tax rates will inevitably rise over time.
For these reasons, I hope you’ll contact Congress and ask your representative to sign my letter to House leadership urging them to reject the so-called “Marketplace Fairness Act.”
You can reach your representative at 202-224-3121.
The Internet has been an enormous boon to our entire economy, and I hope to keep it that way.
Campaign for Liberty has assured me that if they can raise the necessary funds, they can expand their program against the Internet Tax Mandate with hard-hitting TV, radio, and Internet banner ads to alert Americans to the dangers of Congress passing the misnamed “Marketplace Fairness Act.”
Together, I’m sure we can get enough support from conservatives and liberty-minded legislators to stop this bill in its tracks.
Will you help today, when your assistance is needed most?
I look forward to working more with the liberty movement, and while I wish I were writing you about repealing Gun-Free School Zones or legalizing industrial hemp, I hope I can count on your support to defeat the ill-conceived and misguided Internet Tax Mandate.
Please contact Congress today and encourage your representative to sign on to my letter this week.
Your action could make all the difference.
In Liberty,
Congressman Thomas Massie (KY-4)
P.S. I’ve written a letter to House leadership expressing my concerns with the so-called “Marketplace Fairness Act” and asking them to simply not bring it to the floor for a vote.
I’ve seen firsthand the great work Campaign for Liberty members have done in chipping away support from this bill.
And I could really use your assistance in getting as many members of the House as possible to join me in opposing the Internet Tax Mandate.
So today, please urge your representative to sign my letter to House leadership urging them to reject the so-called “Marketplace Fairness Act.”
You can reach your representative at 202-224-3121.
