Thanks to Chris for the information… Chris received a flyer saying that Marshall is having another town hall here in Newton County this Saturday November 14, 2009 at the Alcovy High School from 10 am to noon.
Scheduled on another UGA game day the game is NOT until 7pm.
Sorry it has been a while since I last blogged. Summer time is such a busy time but I have been watching a nearby city and have been so impressed by their actions that I had to stop and blog about it.
Most governments whether it be city, or county, or state, and we all know federal thinks that in order to fund something that it must come through taxation or forced upon the taxpayers. I have an example for all of the above to consider and learn from. The city of Porterdale here in Georgia and their citizens, Sandy Fowler Downtown Manager, and their City Council and Mayor proved that thinking outside the box can accomplish great things without raising taxes. I can give you two recent examples of this:
1) Due to the economic conditions fireworks would not be held in Covington this year as they have been in previous years for the 4th of July. The city of Porterdale came together and through DONATIONS were able to give the people in Newton County a place to celebrate our Nation’s birthday together with a very professional and excellent fireworks show. Sandy Fowler had put the estimate needed of about $4000.00 to fund this event. This community came together and covered by the local press (Covington News & Newton Citizen) were able to not only raise $4000.00 but even more, for a total $9,050.o0 donated towards this event. Did the city of Porterdale pocket the $5050.00? No, they bought more fireworks than first planned with the additional money. Also, one other major detail an estimated 7000 people came to Porterdale to participate. The towns population is only 1281 per the 2000 census.
2) The police in the city of Porterdale needed to get new bullet proof vests to keep their officers safe. The vests they have were around a decade old and needed to be replaced. Yet again the city of Porterdale showed how to think outside the box. In this case this was not a bonus like the fireworks show, this is an actual need, an actual function of government to provide the police with needed equipment. Instead of raising taxes or putting their officers in danger, one of the officer’s wives organized an event to raise the money. Holly Cripps organized Ride to Provide motorcycle fundraiser for the Porterdale Police Department which raised $2,070.00 which was half of the total needed to be raised. Yet again a great example of how money can be raised and yet no taxes were raised.
So many times we hear about or see government’s waste and abuse and inefficiency and I want to congratulate the city of Porterdale Georgia for thinking outside of the box and getting things done in an entrepreneurial way without raising taxes. Porterdale has chosen to not take the easy path but to focus on a goal, be creative, be efficient, and get it done.
Congrats Porterdale ~ keep up the awesome work. To those who have never been to Porterdale. This is a small mill town and over the past few years has really been revitalized. There was a mill which was converted into lofts by an Atlanta developer and also new updated shops and restaurants were added nearby. I have been very impressed with the cities transformation and spirit, as well as, the above examples which show there are people who are actually thinking and in government. That is rare, truly rare.

AND AGAIN – THANK YOU TAX Payers for getting the word out and speaking to your Commissioners.
YOU MADE THE DIFFERENCE!!!
thank you,
Elizabeth
I know this is short notice but we have just put together a rally in opposition to raising taxes in Newton County.
We will have State Senator John Douglas speaking at this rally.
We will be on the Square at 6pm for the rally and then about 6:30pm we plan on going over to the Old Courthouse before the BOC’s meeting to speak with the Commissioners and letting them know as Tax Payers we do not want our taxes raised and we do not want layoffs for our Public Safety Jobs (Police/Sheriff’s Dept., Fire/EMS). The BOC’s meeting is to start at 7pm and we can then listen to their comments after we have spoken to them. There will be no discussion after the meeting to the BOC’s at this meeting.
This will be a peaceful rally in opposition to raising taxes, similar to the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party Rally in Atlanta earlier this year.
Homemade signs in opposition to tax increases are encouraged, similar to those from the TEA Party’s just please remember to keep them respectful as the media will most likely be in attendance.
Hope to see you there and please bring your family and at least a friend or two ; )
If you could please RSVP to me at eschristian@gmail.com because we are sending out press releases to the local and Atlanta press and would like an estimate on how many will be able to attend.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Christian – 1st Vice Chairman
Newton County Georgia Republican Party
This rally is being sponsored by the:
Newton County Republican Party
President Obama does not govern from the “sensible middle”, so I have a question for the Democrats who continue to advise Republicans to “go to the middle”: If the Democrats can be very partisan and to the far far far left like President Obama and Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid then why do they ask the Republicans to come to the “sensible middle” as you say? Could it be to weaken the Republicans? Could it be so that there is not a clear distinction between what the Democrats and Republicans stand for but to pull the Republicans over to the middle closer to the Liberal Democrats so that in reality they are not Republicans anymore but rather Independents or Moderates? Do you think President Obama / Nancy Pelosi / Harry Reid are in the middle when they are proposing raising EVERY American family’s utility bill by $3000/year for the so-called “Cap and Trade” or better known as Cap and Tax in an effort to tax us to help with so-called “man-made global warming”?
It was Ronald Reagan in 1976 who spoke before CPAC and said:
“raising a banner of no pale pastels, but bold colors which make it unmistakably clear where we stand on all of the issues troubling the people”
~~~AND~~~
“I don ‘t know about you, but I am impatient with those Republicans who after the last election rushed into print saying, “We must broaden the base of our party”—when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents.”
Reagan went on to say in this speech:
“Let us show that we stand for fiscal integrity”
~~~AND~~~
“Let us also include a permanent limit on the percentage of the people’s earnings government can take without their consent.”
~~~AND~~~
“Now, it is possible we have been persuasive to a greater degree than we had ever realized. Few, if any, Democratic party candidates in the last election ran as liberals. Listening to them I had the eerie feeling we were hearing reruns of Goldwater speeches. I even thought I heard a few of my own.”
~~~AND~~~
“Make no mistake, the leadership of the Democratic party is still out of step with the majority of Americans.”
Reagan concluded his speech by saying:
“I do not believe I have proposed anything that is contrary to what has been considered Republican principle. It is at the same time the very basis of conservatism. It is time to reassert that principle and raise it to full view. And if there are those who cannot subscribe to these principles, then let them go their way.”
You can read the whole speech at: http://conservativeandproud.wordpress.com/2009/05/23/let-them-go-their-way/
President Reagan was not in the “sensible middle” as you say and he was reelected overwhelmingly and had the largest number of electoral college votes in our Nation’s history – it was not because he tried to be in the middle because he did not or to make the Democrats happy or follow Democrats advice, as he did not. Quite the contrary – this is why many Democrats became Reagan Democrats because he was a true Conservative and many Democrats are at heart Conservative on many issues and for one reason or another classify themselves as Democrats. We know now that the Democrat party of yesterday is no longer the Democrat party of today. They have traveled so far left past Liberalism to Statism that they cannot go much farther to the left as they have traveled as far left as one can go. It was because Reagan stood strong on principles and put into action the conservative beliefs that most Americans believe in that he became one of the most loved and successful Presidents in our Nation’s history.
Republicans must now stand strong and continue to “raise a banner of no pale pastels, but bold colors which makes it unmistakably clear where we stand on all of the issues troubling the people”.
The days of the Republican party (especially here in Newton County Georgia and all the way to D.C.) listening to Democrats for advice on how we should be more in the “middle” ARE OVER.
We are Republicans, we have principles and beliefs that we stand on and will no longer compromise those principles – that is why Republicans lost in 2006 and 2008 and to the Democrats who commented above and letters who were published in the letters to the editor (CovNews.com) in this past weeks papers please know that the days of Republicans being quiet, rolling over and falling into the trap of listening to Democrats for advice – THOSE DAYS ARE OVER!!!
Republicans will stand strong for smaller government, less taxes, and in support of those who protect us whether that be on the local level with our Fire / Police / EMS / Sheriff’s department or all the way to the national level with our Military. Republicans will fight for the smaller government, lower taxes, and protecting Public Service jobs which the Democrats actually considered cutting.
Please contact your Board of Commissioner here in Newton County, as well as, the Chairman Kathy Morgan (D) at: http://co.newton.ga.us/content/view/32/31/
Please tell them NO to tax increases and without cutting Public Service jobs.
You can thank Tim Fleming (R) and Mort Ewing (R) for standing for smaller government and less taxes and supporting those who protect us – the Public Service Employees – their information is on that site as well.
Also, if you would like information on how to get involved in your community ~ just GOOGLE (your County) and GOP and I bet you will find a local party ~ that is where everything begins ~ grassroots. For more information on the Newton County GA GOP please check them out at: http://www.newtongop.org/
Governor Ronald Reagan (R-CA)
Conservative Political Action Conference
Washington, DC
March 1, 1975
Since our last meeting we have been through a disastrous election. It is easy for us to be discouraged, as pundits hail that election as a repudiation of our philosophy and even as a mandate of some kind or other. But the significance of the election was not registered by those who voted, but by those who stayed home. If there was anything like a mandate it will be found among almost two-thirds of the citizens who refused to participate.
Bitter as it is to accept the results of the November election, we should have reason for some optimism. For many years now we have preached “the gospel,” in opposition to the philosophy of so-called liberalism which was, in truth, a call to collectivism.
Now, it is possible we have been persuasive to a greater degree than we had ever realized. Few, if any, Democratic party candidates in the last election ran as liberals. Listening to them I had the eerie feeling we were hearing reruns of Goldwater speeches. I even thought I heard a few of my own.
Bureaucracy was assailed and fiscal responsibility hailed. Even George McGovern donned sackcloth and ashes and did penance for the good people of South Dakota.
But let’s not be so naive as to think we are witnessing a mass conversion to the principles of conservatism. Once sworn into office, the victors reverted to type. In their view, apparently, the ends justified the means.
The “Young Turks” had campaigned against “evil politicians.” They turned against committee chairmen of their own party, displaying a taste and talent as cutthroat power politicians quite in contrast to their campaign rhetoric and idealism. Still, we must not forget that they molded their campaigning to fit what even they recognized was the mood of the majority.
And we must see to it that the people are reminded of this as they now pursue their ideological goals—and pursue them they will.
I know you are aware of the national polls which show that a greater (and increasing) number of Americans—Republicans, Democrats and independents—classify themselves as “conservatives” than ever before. And a poll of rank-and-file union members reveals dissatisfaction with the amount of power their own leaders have assumed, and a resentment of their use of that power for partisan politics. Would it shock you to know that in that poll 68 percent of rank-and-file union members of this country came out endorsing right-to-work legislation?
These polls give cause for some optimism, but at the same time reveal a confusion that exists and the need for a continued effort to “spread the word.”
In another recent survey, of 35,000 college and university students polled, three-fourths blame American business and industry for all of our economic and social ills. The same three-fourths think the answer is more (and virtually complete) regimentation and government control of all phases of business—including the imposition of wage and price controls. Yet, 80 percent in the same poll want less government interference in their own lives!
In 1972 the people of this country had a clear-cut choice, based on the issues—to a greater extent than any election in half a century. In overwhelming numbers they ignored party labels, not so much to vote for a man or even a policy as to repudiate a philosophy. In doing so they repudiated that final step into the welfare state—that call for the confiscation and redistribution of their earnings on a scale far greater than what we now have. They repudiated the abandonment of national honor and a weakening of this nation’s ability to protect itself.
A study has been made that is so revealing that I’m not surprised it has been ignored by a certain number of political commentators and columnists. The political science department of Georgetown University researched the mandate of the 1972 election and recently presented its findings at a seminar.
Taking several major issues which, incidentally, are still the issues of the day, they polled rank-and-file members of the Democratic party on their approach to these problems. Then they polled the delegates to the two major national conventions—the leaders of the parties.
They found the delegates to the Republican convention almost identical in their responses to those of the rank-and-file Republicans. Yet, the delegates to the Democratic convention were miles apart from the thinking of their own party members.
The mandate of 1972 still exists. The people of America have been confused and disturbed by events since that election, but they hold an unchanged philosophy.
Our task is to make them see that what we represent is identical to their own hopes and dreams of what America can and should be. If there are questions as to whether the principles of conservatism hold up in practice, we have the answers to them. Where conservative principles have been tried, they have worked. Gov. Meldrim Thomson is making them work in New Hampshire; so is Arch Moore in West Virginia and Mills Godwin in Virginia. Jack Williams made them work in Arizona and I’m sure Jim Edwards will in South Carolina.
If you will permit me, I can recount my own experience in California.
When I went to Sacramento eight years ago, I had the belief that government was no deep, dark mystery, that it could be operated efficiently by using the same common sense practiced in our everyday life, in our homes, in business and private affairs.
The “lab test” of my theory – California—was pretty messed up after eight years of a road show version of the Great Society. Our first and only briefing came from the outgoing director of finance, who said: “We’re spending $1 million more a day than we’re taking in. I have a golf date. Good luck!” That was the most cheerful news we were to hear for quite some time.
California state government was increasing by about 5,000 new employees a year. We were the welfare capital of the world with 16 percent of the nation’s caseload. Soon, California’s caseload was increasing by 40,000 a month.
We turned to the people themselves for help. Two hundred and fifty experts in the various fields volunteered to serve on task forces at no cost to the taxpayers. They went into every department of state government and came back with 1,800 recommendations on how modern business practices could be used to make government more efficient. We adopted 1,600 of them.
We instituted a policy of “cut, squeeze and trim” and froze the hiring of employees as replacements for retiring employees or others leaving state service.
After a few years of struggling with the professional welfarists, we again turned to the people. First, we obtained another task force and, when the legislature refused to help implement its recommendations, we presented the recommendations to the electorate.
It still took some doing. The legislature insisted our reforms would not work; that the needy would starve in the streets; that the workload would be dumped on the counties; that property taxes would go up and that we’d run up a deficit the first year of $750 million.
That was four years ago. Today, the needy have had an average increase of 43 percent in welfare grants in California, but the taxpayers have saved $2 billion by the caseload not increasing that 40,000 a month. Instead, there are some 400,000 fewer on welfare today
than then.
Forty of the state’s 58 counties have reduced property taxes for two years in a row (some for three). That $750-million deficit turned into an $850-million surplus which we returned to the people in a one-time tax rebate. That wasn’t easy. One state senator described that rebate as “an unnecessary expenditure of public funds.”
For more than two decades governments—federal, state, local—have been increasing in size two-and-a-half times faster than the population increase. In the last 10 years they have increased the cost in payroll seven times as fast as the increase in numbers.
We have just turned over to a new administration in Sacramento a government virtually the same size it was eight years ago. With the state’s growth rate, this means that government absorbed a workload increase, in some departments as much as 66 percent.
We also turned over—for the first time in almost a quarter of a century—a balanced budget and a surplus of $500 million. In these eight years just passed, we returned to the people in rebates, tax reductions and bridge toll reductions $5.7 billion. All of this is contrary to the will of those who deplore conservatism and profess to be liberals, yet all of it is pleasing to its citizenry.
Make no mistake, the leadership of the Democratic party is still out of step with the majority of Americans.
Speaker Carl Albert recently was quoted as saying that our problem is “60 percent recession, 30 percent inflation and 10 percent energy.” That makes as much sense as saying two and two make 22.
Without inflation there would be no recession. And unless we curb inflation we can see the end of our society and economic system. The painful fact is we can only halt inflation by undergoing a period of economic dislocation—a recession, if you will.
We can take steps to ease the suffering of some who will be hurt more than others, but if we turn from fighting inflation and adopt a program only to fight recession we are on the road to disaster.
In his first address to Congress, the president asked Congress to join him in an all-out effort to balance the budget. I think all of us wish that he had re-issued that speech instead of this year’s budget message.
What side can be taken in a debate over whether the deficit should be $52 billion or $70 billion or $80 billion preferred by the profligate Congress?
Inflation has one cause and one cause only: government spending more than government takes in. And the cure to inflation is a balanced budget. We know, of course, that after 40 years of social tinkering and Keynesian experimentation that we can’t do this all at once, but it can be achieved. Balancing the budget is like protecting your virtue: you have to learn to say “no.”
This is no time to repeat the shopworn panaceas of the New Deal, the Fair Deal and the Great Society. John Kenneth Galbraith, who, in my opinion, is living proof that economics is an inexact science, has written a new book. It is called “Economics and the Public Purpose.” In it, he asserts that market arrangements in our economy have given us inadequate housing, terrible mass transit, poor health care and a host of other miseries. And then, for the first time to my knowledge, he advances socialism as the answer to our problems.
Shorn of all side issues and extraneous matter, the problem underlying all others is the worldwide contest for the hearts and minds of mankind. Do we find the answers to human misery in freedom as it is known, or do we sink into the deadly dullness of the Socialist ant heap?
Those who suggest that the latter is some kind of solution are, I think, open to challenge. Let’s have no more theorizing when actual comparison is possible. There is in the world a great nation, larger than ours in territory and populated with 250 million capable people. It is rich in resources and has had more than 50 uninterrupted years to practice socialism without opposition.
We could match them, but it would take a little doing on our part. We’d have to cut our paychecks back by 75 percent; move 60 million workers back to the farm; abandon two-thirds of our steel-making capacity; destroy 40 million television sets; tear up 14 of every 15 miles of highway; junk 19 of every 20 automobiles; tear up two-thirds of our railroad track; knock down 70 percent of our houses; and rip out nine out of every 10 telephones. Then, all we have to do is find a capitalist country to sell us wheat on credit to keep us from starving!
Our people are in a time of discontent. Our vital energy supplies are threatened by possibly the most powerful cartel in human history. Our traditional allies in Western Europe are experiencing political and economic instability bordering on chaos.
We seem to be increasingly alone in a world grown more hostile, but we let our defenses shrink to pre-Pearl Harbor levels. And we are conscious that in Moscow the crash build-up of arms continues. The SALT II agreement in Vladivostok, if not re-negotiated, guarantees the Soviets a clear missile superiority sufficient to make a “first strike” possible, with little fear of reprisal. Yet, too many congressmen demand further cuts in our own defenses, including delay if not cancellation of the B-1 bomber.
I realize that millions of Americans are sick of hearing about Indochina, and perhaps it is politically unwise to talk of our obligation to Cambodia and South Vietnam. But we pledged—in an agreement that brought our men home and freed our prisoners—to give our allies arms and ammunition to replace on a one-for-one basis what they expend in resisting the aggression of the Communists who are violating the cease-fire and are fully aided by their Soviet and Red Chinese allies. Congress has already reduced the appropriation to half of what they need and threatens to reduce it even more.
Can we live with ourselves if we, as a nation, betray our friends and ignore our pledged word? And, if we do, who would ever trust us again? To consider committing such an act so contrary to our deepest ideals is symptomatic of the erosion of standards and values. And this adds to our discontent.
We did not seek world leadership; it was thrust upon us. It has been our destiny almost from the first moment this land was settled. If we fail to keep our rendezvous with destiny or, as John Winthrop said in 1630, “Deal falsely with our God,” we shall be made “a story and byword throughout the world.”
Americans are hungry to feel once again a sense of mission and greatness.
I don‘t know about you, but I am impatient with those Republicans who after the last election rushed into print saying, “We must broaden the base of our party”—when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents.
It was a feeling that there was not a sufficient difference now between the parties that kept a majority of the voters away from the polls. When have we ever advocated a closed-door policy? Who has ever been barred from participating?
Our people look for a cause to believe in. Is it a third party we need, or is it a new and revitalized second party, raising a banner of no pale pastels, but bold colors which make it unmistakably clear where we stand on all of the issues troubling the people?
Let us show that we stand for fiscal integrity and sound money and above all for an end to deficit spending, with ultimate retirement of the national debt.
Let us also include a permanent limit on the percentage of the people’s earnings government can take without their consent.
Let our banner proclaim a genuine tax reform that will begin by simplifying the income tax so that workers can compute their obligation without having to employ legal help.
And let it provide indexing—adjusting the brackets to the cost of living—so that an increase in salary merely to keep pace with inflation does not move the taxpayer into a surtax bracket. Failure to provide this means an increase in government’s share and would make the worker worse off than he was before he got the raise.
Let our banner proclaim our belief in a free market as the greatest provider for the people.
Let us also call for an end to the nit-picking, the harassment and over-regulation of business and industry which restricts expansion and our ability to compete in world markets.
Let us explore ways to ward off socialism, not by increasing government’s coercive power, but by increasing participation by the people in the ownership of our industrial machine.
Our banner must recognize the responsibility of government to protect the law-abiding, holding those who commit misdeeds personally accountable.
And we must make it plain to international adventurers that our love of peace stops short of “peace at any price.”
We will maintain whatever level of strength is necessary to preserve our free way of life.
A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.
I do not believe I have proposed anything that is contrary to what has been considered Republican principles. It is at the same time the very basis of conservatism. It is time to reassert that principle and raise it to full view. And if there are those who cannot subscribe to these principles, then let them go their way.
Here in Newton County people are standing up to the possibility of more taxes being raised (millage rates to be raised) during this recession. I am happy to see that most who have responded have been positive and oppose tax increases during the hard economic times we face. You can read the details at: http://www.jasonpye.com/blog/2009/05/newton_boc_weighs_tax_increase.html and also at http://www.covnews.com/news/article/7210/.
Here are my thoughts on this proposed tax increase. Some say – “it’s not that much” and “we can reduce it later”. To point number one – please consider that every little bit counts. Have you considered all of the taxes we are about to see from Washington D.C. and already currently see? If you take for example President Obama, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, and President of the Senate Harry Reid and those who support the Cap and Tax (they call it Cap and Trade) to tax carbon emissions for so-called man-made “global warming”. Did you know if this passes each family in the United States of America will face an increase in their power bills of $3000+ / family / year? Let’s look at other examples – President Obama and Pelosi and Reid want to tax soft drinks or like we call it here in Georgia Coca~Cola’s, they are already taxing cigarettes/tobacco to those who smoke, etc… And let us not forget that President Obama / Pelosi / Reid have taken over the automobile industry and just passed standards on the vehicles which will cost the cars price to increase by around from anywhere from $1300 and I have even heard up to $6000 per car and the safety standards reduced and human lives will be lost. So now that we have just seen a few of Washington D.C.’s tax plans let us take what some call a “it’s not that much” tax here in Newton County and add to the $3000/year electricity bills, tax on cigarettes, soft drinks, etc…, and tax on the cars – when it is all said and done will you have any money left to pay your property taxes? You do know if your property taxes are not paid your property can be auctioned off right? Every little bit counts and if you are a person who truly believes that government should stay out of our lives as much as possible and believe in fiscal responsibility you would see that this is a dangerous precedent to be set if we do not stand our ground and say NO. And as far as the theory of “we can reduce it later” – yeah right – please show me one example of a tax that was added and when it was taken away? Governments role should be in protecting it’s citizens – Police/Sheriff/Fire/EMS – everything after that is optional.
To contact your Commissioner here in Newton County: http://co.newton.ga.us/content/view/32/62/
I am going to quote below one of the best Presidents in our Nation’s history – the Republican party’s first President -
President Abraham Lincoln 1864:
“We all declare for liberty; but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others, the same word may mean for some men to do as they please with other men, and the product of other men’s labor. Here are two, not only different, but incompatible things, called by the same name – liberty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective parties, called by two different and incompatible names – liberty and tyranny.”
The above quote illustrates the difference between Conservatism (those who believe in the individual) and Statism (those who believe in government for all their answers). I am a Lincoln/Reagan Conservative who believes in the power of the individual and that government is not the answer but is the problem more than the solution. Please stand strong on your principles and say NO to tax increases here in Newton County and all around this Nation. I was happy to see California citizens voted NO to more tax increases and for smaller government. California is a great example of why excessive spending and excessive taxation do not work – just ask the 3000 people per week leaving California.
