My Vote for President and Senate

DISCLOSURE
My personal principles and values tend to fall with the platform of the Republican party, though the party itself does not require any candidate to adhere to it. That is too bad, but that is the way it is. I cannot stand with the liberal platform of the Democratic Party, period. Sadly, most of their candidates agree with it.

THE POINT
Now, here is how I feel about our presidential race. I believe with all my heart that Barack Obama must not be given another four years. His domestic and foreign policies will wreck us as well as bankrupt us as a nation. He must be stopped and unseated. The question for me is, “Who can stop him and replace him as President?” I believe there is only one candidate who can, Mitt Romney. Is Romney my perfect choice? No. But I believe he is the one and only choice to stop Barack Obama. I will vote for Mitt Romney.

ONE FINAL POINT
Who can best serve Missouri and our country in the U.S. Senate? Claire McCaskill has voted with Barack Obama’s agenda 98% of the time. She can say she is “moderate” all day long till she is blue in the face, but that does not make it so. She is a lawyer and a slick and convincing communicator, but she does not share my values. Now…the reason I am voting for Todd Akin is because he DOES share my values. I know him and his family. He is not the wild-eyed, right-wing weirdo that McCaskill and the liberal media have painted him to be. Don’t let the selected sound bites shape your opinion. His official website (www.akin.org) and campaign material show him for who he really is and who I know him to be. He is a smart, intelligent man and a capable, experienced leader. He is a man of genuine faith who stands for the family and for the protection of our freedoms. Maybe you are still not convinced. Perhaps your questions are not all answered. Well, the election is Tuesday. Let me close with this…If you think Obama’s crony, Claire McCaskill, must be stopped as well, there is only one candidate who can beat her–Todd Akin. Thanks for your time.

TODD AKIN, WE ARE LISTENING

Todd Akin is a courageous patriot. We are listening, Todd!

This is no lost cause…TODD AKIN FOR SENATE.

Experience Counts in Desperate Times

“If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government,
our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.”
–Samuel Adams, Patriot (1780)

Now is that time, and the U.S. Senate race in Missouri is that battleground seat. Without proven and tested representation at the highest levels of leadership, it appears that the ruin of our republic is imminent. Let me make a few points:

• The U.S. Senate is not the place to start an untested, inexperienced person in office. We need solid, conservative experience in this high office. (Look what inexperience got us in the Oval Office.)
• Proven character is needed to avoid the landmines of indulgence, pride, and position.
• Experience is needed to maneuver around high powered lobbying inside and outside the D.C. beltway.
• A seasoned veteran is needed on “day one” to understand and use the convoluted rules of the legislative process.

TODD AKIN IS THE ONLY SENATE CANDIDATE WITH THIS EXPERIENCE.

Of the 435 Representatives in the House, Todd Akin is ranked 21st most conservative by a range of very conservative watchdog groups. (See Chart) Did you get that?? 21 out of 435! That’s in the top 5%–way above some of the most noted and popular conservatives.

Todd Akin is being maliciously maligned and mischaracterized by opponents who know he cannot be controlled by party, big money, establishment–anybody or anything other than bedrock Constitutional principle. They are twisting and misinterpreting his conservative record. They are impugning his motives and actions. They will do anything to win. But Todd will not go after them in the same manner. He will show respect even to the disrespectful. Todd Akin represents the values of God-fearing, Constitutional-loving patriots as one who will stand for faith, family, and freedom. Todd is a man of faith who loves God, who protects family, and who cherishes liberty. He will protect those values. His rhetoric and his record show this to be true. Todd does not simply aspire to high office, he aspires to serve his country, his constituents, and his Creator.

Todd Akin represents my values and he has my wholehearted endorsement and my vote.

TODD AKIN NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT AND YOUR VOTE ON AUGUST 7.

Remember Mr. Smith Goes to Washington?

Remember in Mr Smith Goes to Washington, how the media machine opponents spun the truth about Jeff Smith and his bill? That is EXACTLY what Senate opponent John Brunner is doing to an honest man, Todd Akin. Money moguls like John Brunner are the corrupt ones. I do not want a man like that representing me in the Senate. He knows he is printing lies and innuendo, but he is saying that he is just reprinting some other news report. He has twisted truth into a lie, just like in Mr. Smith.

Would David Barton endorse a crooked politician? No, but he has endorsed, AS A GOOD FRIEND AND COWORKER, Congressman Todd Akin who is running for US Senate.  BIG MONEY IS TRYING TO SQUASH AN HONEST MAN AND HIS CONSERVATIVE REPUTATION. Salesman and millionaire John Brunner will do anything to win, anything…and he will put his money where his mouth is. He has pulled the wool over many Missourians’ eyes.

Does Glenn Beck trust David Barton’s judgment? How about Michele Bachmann’s or Mike Huckabee’s? How about the endorsements of over 100 Missouri pastors and Christian leaders?

HISTORIAN DAVID BARTON ENDORSE MISSOURIAN TODD AKIN FOR US SENATE

“I am honored to endorse Congressman Todd Akin for U.S. Senate. I have known and worked closely with him for many years and he is a strong balanced conservative on both social and economic issues, fighting not only for unborn life and traditional marriage but also to reduce federal spending and reestablish constitutionally limited government. While others are willing to support these values once they come to a vote, Todd was willing to fight to bring these issues to a vote. He is not just a supporter of our constitutional conservative values but he is also a champion for them. We need the principled leadership of Todd Akin in the U. S. Senate.”

Calling on Akin to take the high ground and leave the low ground to Brunner

Just got today’s mail…I tried to count to 10, but just got to 9 before I clicked “Post!”

I CONDEMN John Brunner for his negative attack ads and his misrepresentation and spinning of the facts.

Mr. Brunner, you cannot purchase this election with all your slick mailings and commercials. For being a self-proclaimed outsider and “citizen-senator,” you are cherry picking facts just like “career politicians” do. I don’t think you will find either Akin or Steelman doing what you have done. The truth will prevail, your support will evaporate, and your high-paid political promoters will be the only beneficiaries of your self-funded campaign. God forgive me if I am being harsh, but I have had enough of it. Truth can be stretched into lies and I think you have crossed over that line.

This has been airing the last couple of weeks. Combined with the mailing I received today, I have just one thing to say, “Shame on you John Brunner for misrepresenting the truth:”

Now here is a class act:

I call on Congressman Akin to rebut Brunner’s mischaracterizations with the truth of the matter, and do it in an appropriate way.
