Elections have consequences
Cradle-to-grave European-style society with the government at its center? Or an opportunity society with yes, a safety net, and the individual and family at its center?
You’ve heard the Paul Ryan-voiced contrast before. A large roomful of us heard it again yesterday in one of many stops the very busy 1st District Congressman is making in support of Wisconsin conservatives – like Frank Lasee running to succeed his distant relative Alan Lasee in the 1st Senate District.
Frank Lasee is exactly the type of conservative leader we need in Madison. Please come out and support Frank, and help keep the 1st State Senate seat in conservative hands!
Sincerely,
Paul Ryan
Elections matter. Over and over Ryan said it.
It’s getting to be crunch time… The other side has lots of money and lots of muscle…. [They are] demagoguing issues to scare seniors, throwing mud [everywhere].
…. Why does this matter? This is not about Republicans and Democrats. It’s about whether we will reclaim our country.
…. America is an idea - not geography. …. Our rights come from God – not from government!
Rep. Ryan urged all present to dig into their pockets – again. Deep. He pleaded with folks to get involved not only with Lasee’s critical campaign, but also with Reid Ribble and Scott Walker and Ron Johnson. (“We owe it to these people…”)
If you don’t already have plans to help with a campaign in some way, please, please contact me. I’ll hook you up.
3 weeks from today. 3 weeks!
Elections have consequences. Hope ‘n change – and BIG consequences. Get out there and help with every spare minute you have.

Yes, great to hear Paul Ryan. We need to be reminded that our rights do indeed come from God, not government. About volunteering, the Outagamie County Republican Party (OCRP)has opporunities to help with various campaigns. We are fortunate this year to have two outlets, OCRP campaign office downtown Appleton, and the Victory Center out by the airport on Grande Market Drive. The Victory Center has need for folks to call to GOTV, it is open from 9 to 9, M-Sa. The downtown office is open from Noon to 7, M-F, 10-4:30 on Saturdays, has yard signs, stickers and merchandise. Information: 574-3926 or 730-3933.

How do you Know this? Did humans have rights before we ended up with this system we have now? What rights did people have under kings?
