Infiltrating Our Republican Party

The following article was posted on GOPIsForMe.com.

I know it’s hard to pull away from the day-to-day routine of life. We’re all busy trying to keep up and move our families ahead. But while we’re grinding out our existence, a handful of self-appointed Republican “saviors” are steering the Republican Party too far right.

I realize most of us aren’t extreme in our views, and for the most part, we want limited government and opportunities to achieve our dreams.

Fighting EPA's Expansion of Power

Two new regulations issued by the EPA represent the largest expansion of power by the federal government in our nation’s history. The EPA’s new water rule would allow the federal government to regulate all man-made and natural bodies of water, including those on private property. The rule allows the federal government into our backyards, regulating private and public lakes, ponds and streams.

And the recent power plant rule is all pain and no gain for American families and workers. By imposing strict carbon regulations on existing power plants, the Obama administration will force many power plants to close down costing thousands of jobs and driving up electricity prices.

Guess What? Women Are Safer Being Married!

Does family structure matter? I have answered this question before, and certainly from an economic point there is no doubt that two parent households produce better economic security for the children and even the women involved in the marriage. In the Washington Post, a piece showed yet another reason for encouraging two parent households; women are safer in marriage from

How I Spent My Summer Vacation! Floor Fight at the Convention in Ft. Worth over Immigration Policy--What Just Happened?

[Editor’s Note: Mark Ramsey is a member of the State Republican Executive Committee (SREC), was a member of the 2014 State Platform and Resolutions Committee in Ft. Worth, and wrote the amendment that passed overwhelmingly, but was ultimately replaced by an amendment by substitution plank similar to the Minority Report.]

What a wild week at the largest GOP gathering on our planet! When I arrived Monday the Temporary Platform and Resolutions Committee – (TPARC) of the Republican Party of Texas (RPT) had about 3000 platform planks that

Braveheart And The Republican Party

Issues: 

At or near the top of my favorite movies is “Braveheart.” Never mind Mel Gibson’s subsequent occasional rants in his private life, including some drunken anti-Semitic remarks to a police officer, the genesis of which I don’t understand. So he’s human. That’s not exactly shocking. But the movie dramatizes the Scottish Wars Of Independence, almost 700 years prior to the film’s production in 1995. The actual history of William Wallace’s life is obviously sketchy, with only a few battles,

Tags: 

Truthfully this was the most chaotic and contumacious convention in respect to the platform I can remember. A ‘mob’ mentality rushed through the audience as we were voting on the Amendment to replace the Immigration Plank. Hysteria and confusion do not partner well when making a sound decision.
