Ten Buck Fridays (as seen on the Ruby Slippers Blog and the newly redesigned Adrienne’s corner) today is promoting Patricia Sullivan, running in Florida for the Republican nomination against Allan “Die Quickly” Grayson in the 8th district in Florida.
I interviewed Sullivan on the healthcare mandate back in April and Stacy and I talked to her at CPAC this year. She is certainly a worthwhile choice for congress and deserves your backing. Her blog is here and you can kick in to her campaign by clicking HERE.
“People are tired of the government, they have the feeling they aren’t being listened to and I’m offering a representative that will listen to them and abide by the Constitution,” Gunn said before the meeting started.
Gunn said he has strong Libertarian views on most issues.
He is a private contractor from Ware whose company had seven employees but downsized to two as the economy faltered.
Gunn said he opposed the Troubled Asset Relief Program bill and the stimulus bill, as well as Cap and Trade reform.
The federal government needs to curb spending and cut taxes, he said.
Many federal departments such as the Department of Energy, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Agriculture Department are unnecessary, Gunn said.
This makes two days in a row that the Sentinel had something to do with the tea party on the front page. Tuesday they covered the Twin City tea Partycandidateforum. It’s a good sign.
As you know I was also there, here is the first of the video’s I shot, I will append the others as they upload.
I have some errands to run so it might be a little while before it is all up.
UPDATE: Here is the rest of the Town Hall in sequence: (more…)
…tonight at 6 p.m. 13 Merriam ave Leominster Massachusetts. I will be attending and shooting some video.
Update: Happiness is not the internet connection dropping just as the candidate hits the stage.
Update 2: Got tied up in personal stuff when I got home so here are the quick points
1. Pledges to serve no more than three terms
2. Pledges to read the bills he is voting on, will vote against bills that are not available for 7 days
3. Will not be going for pork as the financial house needs to be controlled.
4. Big 10th Amendment person.
5. On Afghanistan either define the goal and fight accordingly or pull out.
6. Secure the border first then deal with people already here.
I will be putting up the video later in a new post.
I’d say I’m an 85% guy with him maybe 90. Gunn is an excellent choice and we’d better take advantage of this choice because it’s our best chance to change direction that we’ve had.
