The Exercise of Vital Powers

The Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia has endorsed Senator Casey Cagle for Lieutenant Governor.

With our leaders in Washington losing their focus on traditional conservative Republican values – fiscal responsibility, limited government, free enterprise and strong ethics – it is vital that the candidates offered up by the Republican Party in Georgia be true conservatives. The Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia believes that Casey Cagle is such a conservative.

Casey is a successful, self made businessman who was elected to the State Senate in 1994 at the age of 28. He has compiled an impressive legislative record fighting for lower taxes, free markets and private property rights. As Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, Casey was a leader in the legislative effort to simplify Georgia’s corporate tax code. He sponsored an income tax cut that passed the Senate in 2006 and has cosponsored legislation that would completely phase the state income tax out of existence. He has voted against every proposed tax increase.

Casey has also been a leader in the fight to curb eminent domain abuse, protect Second Amendment rights and cut wasteful spending. He is a founding member of the Senate Liberty Caucus. He is rated A+ by the National Rifle Association and 100% by the National Federation of Independent Business. He has signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge.

The top two priorities of the Republican Party this year are to keep control of the Governor’s office and to increase our majority in the General Assembly. For the RLC, our pro-liberty agenda depends on these priorities being met. Casey is a man of demonstrated integrity who is free of embarrassing ethical entanglements. He truly is a conservative leader we can trust.

We believe that Casey Cagle is the best candidate for Lieutenant Governor. We believe that he will continue to be a strong defender of liberty as Lieutenant Governor. We endorse his candidacy and urge all RLC members to support his campaign. He may be reached through his campaign office at:

Somewhere I read that a lot of child prodegies grow up to be failures. Apparently
Ralph Reed falls into this campaign. Ralphie just attacked his opponent over his
vote on a bill that the entire republican caucus voted for. ooopsie….

Money quote:

He’s so distracted by this mess and wrapped up with his
own criminal defense that he’s running ads against every Republican State Senator
and the incumbent Republican Governor. That doesn’t seem to make for a good
policy to win on for a primary.

A man is caught in a traffic jam in Zimbabwe. Suddenly, someone taps on the
window of his car. He rolls it down and the person says “President Mugabe has
been kidnapped. His ransom is $50 million. If the ransom isn’t paid, his
kidnappers have threatened to douse him with gasoline and set him on fire. We’re
taking up a collection. Do you want to participate?”

The man in the car asks “On average, what are other people donating?”.
The man on the street replies “About five or ten liters.”

Chief Wanna Dubie

Ok, I’m declaring mission accomplished. The kitchen is done. I’ve moved the
breakable back in. Its over. Total cost came in at a bit over $2000 – including
about $200 in new tools. I started it on May 24th, and expected it to be mostly
complete by the end of Memorial day weekend. Instead its almost a month later.
*sigh*.

I’m glad this legal issue has
been resolved

U.S. law distinguishes between two types of action figures for determining
tariffs: dolls, which are defined to include human figures, and toys, which
include “nonhuman creatures”.

Doesn’t Congress have something better to do?

Guess not

Perennial Presidential wannabe Pat Buchanan is usually wrong.

If the House buys the Pence plan, it will be the end of Republican control of
the House in November and the end of Mike Pence as a rising star of the GOP. But
that will not matter. For the consequences for the country will be irremediable
and infinitely worse. (link)

I’ve written about the Pence Plan here

… Republicans do support the draft. I’ve been drafted to be the acting state
chair of the Georgia Republican Liberty Caucus.

So I guess the next steps are:
o Primary Endorsements for Statewide candidates
o Gather up an organizing committee and draft the broad strokes of a set of
bylaws
o Hold a fundraiser for the PAC
o Membership recruitment
o Website enhancements (see eariler rant against gentoo)
o Hold annual convention and elect someone other than me to run this thing
