Perry to Speak at Kentucky GOP Fundraiser

With the extremely unpopular Democratic President Barack Obama weighing on the party, it is good
news for the GOP in Kentucky. To add to Republican momentum in the state, Texas Gov. Rick Perry will visit Kentucky to headline a fundraiser at the Lincoln Reagan Dinner on March 15. The event will be held at Murray State University.

The hope and probability is that Republicans will take over the state House in 2014, as the debacle surrounding Obamacare, the attack on the coal industry, and the promotion of policies opposed by the majority of the electorate in Kentucky has the Democratic Party tottering, with little in the way of answers; especially when Democratic Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear continues to move almost lock-step with Obama on national policies.

It suggests the Democratic Party in Kentucky is in bed with Obama, which doesn't sit well the people of Kentucky.

Along with Perry, Kentucky senators Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell have also been invited to attend the event.

At this time the Kentucky House is controlled by the Democrats by a 54-46 majority. It is believed that will change next year, with the Republicans controlling the House and Senate after the 2014 elections.

Miles Blows Past Humphrey on Obamacare Issue




With the majority of Americans opposing Obamacare, it wasn't a surprise when Kentucky Republican Suzanne Miles blew past Democrat Kim Humphrey to win a house seat, after trailing Humphrey by 6 points.

The victory was attributed to a robust attack on Obamacare, which is forcing over 200,000 people in Kentucky to drop their insurance plans.

This is terrific news, as the state needs to turn even more conservative, as Democratic Governor Beshear has even called Christians dangerous when opposing protections for them.

With the victory, Republicans now have 46 seats in the 100-seat chamber.

This reinforces the strategy of Republicans to continue to hammer at the disastrous Obamacare bill, which most Americans want repealed.

If Republicans take over the chamber, it will be the first time since 1921.

Kentucky Democrats and Their Connection to Corrupt Progress Kentucky and Shawn Reilly

 
As more investigation into the bugging of a private meeting of Mitch McConnell and some of his
aides by Democrat operatives from Kentucky-based Progress Kentucky unfolds, it is beginning to be seen that the participants were not the bungling idiots the mainstream media has attempted to portray them as, but rather have interactions and connections to the highest levels of the Democratic Party of Kentucky, which is increasingly moving left towards their national leader Barack Obama.

Now the question is how high up did the operation involving Progress Kentucky and its taping of the private meeting go in the Kentucky Democratic Party.

White House visitor log records bring damning evidence as to the fact that Shawn Reilly was invited to the White House, confirming he was considered a significant Democratic Kentucky operative by the national Democrats. Several days after his appearance at the White House, the Democratic, liberal Progress Kentucky began its attacks on McConnell, the ethnicity of his wife, and of course the bugging of the meeting between McConnell and his aides.

BuzzFeed said this:

“The head of a group accused of illegally taping private meetings of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s campaign visited the White House days before the group’s Twitter account began actively attacking the Kentucky Republican, according to White House visitors logs.”

The Daily Caller added:
Something BuzzFeed didn’t report: According to the White House visitor log, Matthew Barzun (a “Louisville entrepreneur” who also happens to be Obama’s chief fundraiser) and Keith Runyon (retired, longtime Louisville Courier-Journal editorial page guy) were also in attendance. (You can tell they attended the same meeting because the meeting time is the same, the number of people in the group is the same, they all signed in under the same group number, and, most importantly, the room number for the meeting was the same.)
Additionally, as BuzzFeed reported, Reilly “appears to have been signed in by Victoria McCullough, a staff assistant to Obama confidante Valerie Jarrett.” McCullough signed in Barzun, too.
As for how deep into the Kentucky Democratic Party this corruption may go, here's an example of tweets that confirm interactions at the highest levels.

Per the Daily Caller:

There are other indications that Reilly was well-connected in Kentucky politics. For example, consider this tweet:
 
@metrodems Board Meeting w/ @brucewriter & @smarkreilly planning Sept 14th meeting & Oct 26th Rally w/ @govstevebeshear & @alisonforsos
 
— The Metro Dems(@MetroDems) September 10, 2011

So here we have Democratic Governor Steven Beshear and Democratic Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes being connected to Reilly and the corrupt Progress Kentucky political organization.

Added together, it gives the legitimate appearance members of the Democratic mouthpiece the Courier Times, were at the same White House meeting Reilly attended, and then the connections between Bashear and Grims with the liberal group.
None of this is surprising, as Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes refused to condemn the racist attacks on Senator Mitch McConnell's wife, even as ultra-liberal Ashley Judd was quick to do.

When you include Beshear's attack on Christianity when describing why he vetoed the religious freedom bill, you can see the Democratic Party is moving far left towards Obama and his corrupt Chicago political tactics.

Here's what Beshear said about the religious freedom bill he vetoed:
"... I have significant concerns that this bill will cause serious unintentional consequences that could threaten public safety, health care, and individuals' civil rights."

His words can't be misunderstood. He is saying the freedoms all Christians have the right to enjoy and exercise, are a threat to "public safety, health care, and civil rights."

All of those are buzz words for paying for abortions via Obamacare and being forced to accept homosexuals and other deviant lifestyles.
In the next election cycle we need to let the increasingly radical and liberal Democratic Party that those of us in Kentucky will not allow them to turn our state into another California. To do that we must vote them out of office and put strong conservatives who represent the values of the vast majority of people living in Kentucky.

It appears the Louisville Courier-Journal, radical liberals, and the Kentucky Democratic Party are banding together in an attempt to turn the state and values it represents into those that we vehemently oppose. We can't let it happen.

Let's Hope Ashley Judd Runs Against McConnell for Senate Seat

The more people in Kentucky think about Ashley Judd running against Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, the more they are getting nervous if they're Democrats, and the more they're rejoicing if they're Republicans.

Even when her own mother and sister talk about Ashley, there is no love lost between them, and the allegations made by Judd against her mother especially points to an extremely flawed individual that would garner no sympathy at all from the majority of Kentucky voters she is not only in conflict with as far as values, but acts as if she is superior to in her comments about them and their work in the state.

For Democrats in Kentucky, some at first started salivating over the prospect of a Judd run against McConnell, because he's considered vulnerable against the right candidate. But as people examine Judd and her extreme comments, Democrats are starting to squirm because they see the complete disaster that Judd will be for them, as the national party, which is totally out of step with the people of Kentucky and their values, is pushing to make her the candidate they think can unseat McConnell.

That's a delusion generated from their sheltered existence in Washington, where they can't see anywhere in the country that wouldn't kneel to their wisdom and insight. In regard to Kentucky, there is such a wide chasm between someone like Judd and the people, that even committed, conservative Democrats would not vote for her. The national Democrats simply don't see how terrible she is viewed by Kentuckians.

It's worse than that though. The Kentucky Democrats will be strongly pressured to back Judd if she decides to run, and the party will be painted with her views, as well as Obama's, which will set the Kentucky Democratic Party back for years.

That election it would be a slaughter by the Republicans, who would get the vote in a way they haven't for some time in the state across numerous counties that have went Democrats' way recently.

The bottom line is the Senate race would be a national election, and there is no way a liberal like Judd could ever win in Kentucky.

We could even see a big rift in the Democratic Party of Kentucky because many of its leaders currently in office know they would be in extreme danger of being painted with the attributes of Judd, something many of them won't be able to escape.

Republicans on the other hand are more than hoping Judd will enter the race, as it's one of those once-in-a-lifetime opportunities that can change history.

The question is if the national Democrats will give this terrific gift to the Republicans or not. If they do, it'll be extremely difficult for many Democrats to back her, and will be extremely interesting to see how they respond.

No doubt this is great theater that will be played out on the national level. This is what terrifies Kentucky Democrats ... and it should. Once it starts to be covered in the mainstream media, there is no backing out.

The repercussions could be extraordinary, swift, and ominous. It's amazing that many top Democrats such as Governor Steve Beshear are giving her praise. That means national leaders are already pressing hard for Judd's run. What an amazing debacle is about to happen.

Rand Paul Applauded by Kentucky GOP as "Shining Example"

Seeing the dangers of an executive branch that is out of control, Republican U.S. Sen. Rand Paul recently engaged in a 13-hour filibuster in order to delay a vote for Brennan as CIA director until questions were answered concerning the controversial drone program, where issues over whether or not the president could order the deaths of non-combatant U.S. citizens on American soil.

Getting a response of "no," Paul was considered a terrific example of doing things correctly to not only get answers, but to help others realize things need to be slowed down and not allowed to be fast-tracked as they have in the past.

To that end the Kentucky GOP  pointed out Paul as a 'shining example of Republican leadership.' They did so via a resolution to that effect.

Also pointed out for praise was Republican Floor Leader Mitch McConnell for "coming to his aid."

According to the resolution, Paul's principled stand “ignited a grassroots phenomenon” across America.

Foreign Students Could Stay in Ky. Schools till 23 Years of Age

An irresponsible bill - House Bill 131 - has passed the Kentucky House, and now heads to the Senate for consideration.

The bill would allow foreign-born students and refugees to stay in school to the age of 23. I wonder what could go wrong with a 23-year-old male hanging around young girls the age of 15? The bill was passed by a vote of 71-26 on Thursday.

Another negative part of the bill is students who are disabled will be forced by Kentucky law to leave the school, while the foreign students can continue on. It makes little sense other than attempting to buy votes through outrageous laws catering especially to the Hispanic vote.

According to State Rep. Jody Richards, a Bowling Green Democrat who sponsored the bill, it will be a boost to those students who come into the country with little or weak education. Why doesn't Jody just say illegal immigrants will get privileges Americans don't get. After all, that's what this bill is all about, no matter what terms it's expressed in.

Can Kentucky Republicans be this dumb? The more benefits offered illegals the more of them will come into the state, which over time could result in the inconceivable - Kentucky turning into a liberal-dominated state.

Republicans need to quit catering to these obvious tactics and strongly resist all of the laws that allow for those to come in and have a negative effect on the values of the residents of the state.

Networks Pretend Rand Paul, Tea Party Don't Exist

Mainstream media and even mainstream political parties like to pretend the Tea Party is a fad or trend that has already left the national scene, as evidenced by the refusal of major networks to air the response of popular Republican Senator Rand Paul to the State of the Union address by Barack Obama.

Even the Republican Party didn't embrace Paul, instead choosing to have Marco Rubio give the "official" rebuttal to the President.

Nonetheless, the Tea Party is vibrant and continues to live outside mainstream media, as it represents far more than politics, but a philosophy and way of life that will never go away for those people who desire freedom and far less government intrusion into their lives.

So whether or not the dying mainstream media outlets, or even the Republican Party want to admit it, the Tea Party remains a powerful and growing force in America, one that stands ready to step in as the United States collapses around us because of the refusal to rein in government spending and lower taxes so businesses and individuals can use their capital the best way they see fit.

For Kentucky, we have one of the best politicians in the country in Rand Paul, and he will continue to get a huge hearing from those desiring liberty and not tyranny.

Rand Paul to Respond to Obama's State of the Union

Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky will be one of two Republicans to respond to the State of the Union address from Barack Obama, with the other response coming from Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida.

While the mainstream media is attempting twist this into a fracture in the Republican Party, the truth is, as far as the Tea Party goes, is both are considered to be favorable future candidates for president.

The last couple of years has found the Republican Party responding in a similar fashion, with one response being "official," and the other a secondary response. Both are listened to carefully and desired by voters.

Paul said his purpose isn't an attempt to upstage Rubio, but is one that is focused on the rising and increasingly important grassroots Tea Party movement.

Other than Ron Paul, the father of Rand Paul, Rubio and Rand Paul are the two most well-known figures associated with the Tea Party movement, although many still consider Ron Paul as more representative of what they stand for.
