Tea Party Racist? Black Conservatives Respond
As an off white male (I’m 1/2 Italian and tan very well in the Summer :-) the charge of racism is kind of like, “so, how long have you been beating your wife?” I could respond with, “well, some of my best friends are black,” but doesn’t that just sound lame. The charge of racism has been so over used lately so as to lose it’s punch, but it can still put an off white American on defense for no good reason.
I’ll just let Black Conservatives talk for me:
and then there was James T. Harris that I recorded at the Tucson Tea Party on April 15, 2010.
I’ll leave you with a scripture and a thought.
1 Samuel 16:7
But the Lord said to Samuel, “Don’t judge by his appearance or height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
It’s like Martin Luther King, Jr’s dream speech. Someday we will get to the point in this country where people are judged not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. I’d say that some liberals and some in the liberal media have some catching up to do.
Arizona Health Care Freedom Act
American’s for Prosperity and the Tucson Tea Party teamed up to bring, “Townhall on How to Stop Obamacare in Arizona” to the El Conquistador Resort in Oro Valley. Dr. Eric Novack is a pediatrician who was instrumental in writing the Arizona Health Care Freedom Act that will be on the ballot in November. In this clip, Dr. Novack talks about the two main protections Arizonans would receive under the act.
In this clip, Dr. Eric Novack takes a two-part question on whether Obamacare will cover illegal aliens and whether abortions will be paid for by taxpayers.

Arizona to Join Suit Against Federal Government
Earlier today the Associated Press reported:
Arizona’s Democratic Attorney General Terry Goddard said Wednesday he won’t join lawsuits filed by other states’ attorneys general to challenge the federal health care overhaul, but Republican Gov. Jan Brewer plans to pursue a lawsuit even without Goddard’s involvement.
Tonight in Oro Valley we got news of how the Governor plans to do just that:
If Fox News’ Judge Andrew Napolitano is right then Goddard has a point. At the same time, Arizona is still a red state and the Governor is following the wishes of the people, as well as her own convictions, no doubt.
It’s striking to me how the Democrats went ahead and passed Obamacare against a clear majority of the American people. Are they not concerned that now dozens of states are filling suit against the Federal Government?
As Al Melvin said in the video, America is still strong, but it is being pushed to the limit. This next election is another in a line of “most important elections” ever.

Tucson Tea Party Hosts Hundreds
Hundreds of people gathered outside of Gabrielle Giffords’ office Tuesday afternoon/evening to show their displeasure for her vote for Pelosi/Obama care. Here’s my take on how it went:
Update: HotAir just picked up my video! Thanx you guys
Also, theBCast tells me they are going to run it during their show this afternoon starting at 4pm EST. See you in chat.

Tucson Town Hall Fun & Game Show
Gabrielle Giffords finally held a Town Hall on Obamacare Tuesday night at Sahuaro High School. There were about 1200 people inside the auditorium and reportedly another 1,000 in an overflow area that was fed a closed circuit feed of the proceedings.
I got in the main auditorium and did the best I could zooming around with my camera. More importantly, ordinary (I like that) Southern Arizonans got a chance to tell their Congresswoman what they thought of Obamacare. And they did!
Here’s my take:

Signs of the Times
There’s “Astroturf” and then there’s American ingenuity and creativity. Here’s a look at the Tucson Tea Party event held in front of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords’ office at 4-7 p.m. compared to the Breakfast & Rally for Health Care Reform event held at the same place at 8 a.m.

Congresswoman Giffords Moves Meeting
Have you Seen Her?
Gabrielle Giffords’ office has canceled an appearance in Green Valley/Sahuarita. She’s moving her meeting on veterans issues to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson. The Green Valley News and Sun says (emphasis mine):
Giffords had planned to spend Thursday in the area, including a visit to American Legion Post #66 in Sahuarita.
Her staff on Monday said she has combined that appearance and another at Pima Community College into one at the base at 6 p.m. Thursday. Those attending must RSVP through her Tucson office at 881-3588 to get base access.
Giffords will still attend a private event Thursday at “a retirement community” in the Green Valley/Sahuarita area, though her communications director, C.J. Karamargin, would not disclose details.
Oh my. Congresswoman Giffords is going to extraordinary lengths to avoid being faced with a crowd. Instead of facing her own constituents, she has decided to hide behind the gates of a military base! Even if some opponents do manage to RSVP through Gifford’s office (I don’t know if they are screening participants in any way) this move severely limits access to the congresswoman, and eliminates the possibility of a demonstration outside.
Here’s my bottom line. I don’t want the Congresswoman to feel unsafe in any way. I DO want her to realize that her vote on Obamacare is being watched VERY closely. Speaking for myself, I got fired up when she voted for Cap & Trade. If she votes in favor of Obamacare as well, Mrs. Giffords has to know she will not remain in Congress. She represents us. Are you listening Congresswoman Giffords? I hope so.
Tucson Tea Party Event – August 6, 2009
Gabrielle Giffords, (D)-Arizona’s 8th Congressional District was scheduled to appear at an event in downtown Tucson. According to the Arizona Star
Giffords’ campaign sponsored Cinema La Placita this week, which is a movie night held each Thursday. The movie shown was “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.”
The Tucson Tea Party’s official web site says that Representative Giffords’ campaign misrepresented the truth when they told Fox 11 News that the Congresswoman never planned to attend the event.
Gabrielle Giffords sent out a message in her “Cactus Roots Connection” newsletter about her intended appearance at the event, saying: “Come join me and others in watching this classic film… Hope to see you there! Thank you again for your support! Sincerely yours, Gabrielle Giffords.”
AgapeMedia.net was at La Placita and put together the following video and pictures:

Tammy Bruce at the Tucson Tea Party, July 4, 2009
Tammy Bruce had a few things to say at the Tucson Tea Party. You can listen to the whole thing here. Runs just under 35 minutes:
If you’d like to use the audio on your broadcast or blog, it’s fine with me, but I would appreciate it if you give AgapeMedia.net and /or ShortForOrdinary.com credit. Thanx!
Below are 6 video clips of the same speech. It’s pretty much the whole thing. I started a couple of minutes in on part one because people jumped in front of me and the camera work was pretty chaotic while I moved into position. Otherwise, enjoy!
