Ron Paul poll shocker: He beats Obama head-to-head

From The Christian Science Monitor: How about this for a poll shocker: While everybody in US politics has been preoccupied with the Michigan primary, Ron Paul has sneaked up on President Obama and for the first time leads the incumbent in a head-to-head survey. That’s right, leads – as in, ahead of, out front, winning, and so forth. According to a Rasmussen Reports poll released Tuesday, at the moment Representative Paul bests Mr. Obama in a head-to-head matchup by 43 to 41 percent. The same poll has Mitt Romney tied with Obama, at 44 percent each. Rick Santorum is three points behind the president, according to Rasmussen, and Newt Gingrich is 10 points behind. Wow. Paul is outperforming all the other GOP candidates, by this measure. His campaign is spinning this as evidence he’s the most electable of all. “In order to win back the White House, Republicans must nominate a consistent candidate that offers something besides the status quo. Ron Paul is that candidate,” said national campaign chairman Jesse Benton in a statement on the Rasmussen results. Read More  

Thank You and Merry Christmas!

On behalf of the Rock River Patriots, I want to thank you for all you have done this past year.  It has been very “eventful” to say the least.   As we look ahead to the upcoming year, we see there is much to be done.  It is an opportunity to keep Wisconsin on the right track.  Pray for our leaders and our state. However, with all that needs to be done, it is easy to forget about the “true meaning” of Christmas.  Why is it so important in the first place?  We continually hear the cliche that “the true meaning of Christmas is about giving.”  Yes, it is the season to be giving, but there is more to the story.  The true meaning of Christmas is the celebration of God’s gift to mankind.  God sent his son, Jesus Christ to provide a means of salvation to a fallen people. Only by accepting God’s free gift of Jesus Christ, can we truly be free.  I encourage you all to take the time to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas and thank God for His gift this Christmas season. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5pkIixri04]

The Real Reasons Republicans Dislike Ron Paul

Here is a great article from The New American regarding Ron Paul. Written by Jack Kerwick, Ph.D. Wednesday, 02 November 2011 10:03 7 Although his commitment to “limited government” is unsurpassed, establishment Republicans in both politics and the so-called “conservative media” labor incessantly to discredit Texan Congressman and GOP presidential contender, Ron Paul. On its face, who couldn’t judge this phenomenon, the phenomenon of the most vocal champions of liberty ridiculing and trivializing the most vocal champion of liberty, as anything other than bizarre?  Any remotely curious observer couldn’t resist the impulse to inquire into the roots of this enigma. We needn’t dig too deeply to discover that the establishment Republican’s apparently irrational conduct toward Paul stems from his angst regarding Paul’s foreign policy vision. Paul, you see, rejects in no uncertain terms the notion that Big Government is not only permissible, but desirable, as long as it is non-American citizens abroad upon whom our government’s designs would be brought to bear. Loudly and unapologetically, he rejects the idea that “social engineering” is a good thing as long as it is other societies that our government seeks to “engineer.” Paul makes no secret of his utter contempt, a contempt born…

Letter To The Editor – Vaccines

Below is a “Letter To The Editor” from one of our members regarding vaccines.  Read the letter, draw your own conclusions, and/or investigate this information further for yourself. Letter to the Editor, Crosstalk, a nationwide Christian radio talk show recently interviewed Barbara Fisher r/t to the recent vaccine craze we seem to be experiencing. Fisher is the President of the National Vaccine Information Center which she co-founded with other parents in 1982 as a result of parents whose children have been damaged d/t vaccines. Jim Schneider, Crosstalk’s host asked the question, “Do you believe we are over vaccinating our children?” with Jim referencing her statistical report of 49 doses of 14 vaccines being given to children before the age of 6. Fishers response is that the vaccination schedule for children before the age of 6 has tripled from what it used to be. She adds for older children it is 69 doses of 16 vaccines by the time they reach 18. Barb Fisher expressed concern for the increase in chronically ill and disabled children.  She cites: 1 in 6 learning disabled, 1 in 9 asthma, 1 in 10 w/ ADHD,  1 in 110 w/ autism, 1 in 450 diabetes. She reports, “we have a lot of children who…

Ron Paul Can’t Win?

We keep hearing the mantra that Ron Paul is unelectable.  A new Gallup Poll says otherwise: Obama in Close Race Against Romney, Perry, Bachmann, Paul Ron Paul is within two points of Obama even with much of the mainstream media trying to ignore him.  Based on the angst by the Republican Party, it is clear the only candidate who would not perpetuate the status quo is Ron Paul.  The rest of the pack seems like a continuation of the G.W. Bush presidency. Ron Paul has been very clear on his positions for a long time…following the Constitution.  What is so admirable is the fact that even when his positions may not be have been popular, Dr. Paul did not try to change them based on a poll.  He stood on principle.  Standing on principle is what the real TEA Party is all about, contrary to what some in the co-opted Republican version of the TEA Party would have you believe. The more we compromise on principle, the more slippery the slope gets.  We are on the brink of a total financial collapse with hyperinflation and “1984” is here. The only road out of this can be found in 2 Chronicles…

Founders Without Whom America Would Not Exist

From Chuck Baldwin Live As we enter another Independence Day weekend, I think it would be good to remind ourselves of who those men were that counted the cost and paid the price to bring this land of liberty into existence. Unfortunately, the vast majority of Americans today seem to have very little–if any–knowledge and appreciation for the sacrifices that our Founding Fathers made in order to birth this great country. We can thank the vast majority of our schools (including the institutions of higher learning), major media, political institutions, and even churches for this egregious embarrassment. Accordingly, I think it fitting that today’s column will attempt to renew in our hearts the respect and reverence that these great men whom we call Founding Fathers so richly deserve. George Washington Called “The Father of His Country,” George Washington was, perhaps, the most important man of the founding era. Supernaturally spared during the Indian wars, Washington became the military leader who held the Continental Army together when it was virtually impossible for any man to do so. Without his leadership at Valley Forge and elsewhere, there is absolutely no doubt that the Continental Army would have fallen apart and the fight…

National Inflation Association Scam?

While their documentaries still seem to be worthwhile, here is some interesting information about the National Inflation Association.  I think it is important to point out that potential future hyperinflation is a real danger, and we are seeing massive inflation now.  This possible scam deals with the stock suggestions that NIA sent out to members.
