It’s the curse of having sat through too many local town council meetings and too many speeches by politicians; it’s taking notes as they speak because you want to keep what’s said fresh in mind.

Regular folks don’t do this, but anyone who has spent any time as a reporter will tell you it is a hard habit to break.

So, on Tuesday, January 11, I found myself taking notes as New Jersey Governor, Chris Christie, gave his first constitutionally required State of the State speech. He will be back in February with a speech about his budget.

A Jolly, Fat Buzz-Saw

Christie’s State of the State speech was delivered to the members of the New Jersey Senate and Assembly, mostly Democrats; all of whom had learned in the previous year that the Governor was a jolly, fat buzz-saw who just loves a good fight.

Gov. Christie was preceded by two of the worst Governors in current times, Jim McGreevey who discovered he was gay after he put his boyfriend on the payroll and the whispers in the statehouse became a raging storm. He was followed by Jon Corzine, a limousine liberal. Together they increased taxes and fees 115 times in eight years! In a single term in office, Corzine raised taxes $9 billion!

The campaign for President of the United States is officially underway, with President Obama’s reelection team announcing that Chicago will be their campaign headquarters.

iVoteAmerica is a “PLOG” (Political Blog) dedicated to the core message that voting is the only possible means for traditional, constitutional government to be restored and for Americans to recapture their inalienable rights given them by the Creator.

For the nest 671 days, iVoteAmerica will be drawing the distinctions between policy and politician. We will attempt to shine a bright light on the candidates, illuminating their true political nature. In short, we have been sharpening our knife in order to cut through the crap that we will all be enduring for the next two years.

We exist in order to educate, motivate and activate Americans to VOTE.

Our books and DVDs are great. They educate by articulating our message and by empowering Americans with sustainable intellectual argument for freedom.

Our editorials state the obvious and demonstrate with clarity that our position is the polar opposite of the Obama regime.

Our marches show the media we are present and our voice is loud and should not be ignored.

Our elected officials, once sworn in, face the relentless attacks from the opposition, including the liberal media. They wage a noble battle to resist the temptations of pride, arrogance and power inherent within the Washington culture.

Our presence on talk shows airs our public displeasure with a corrupt government that, once in power, ignores its electorate.

Yes, all of these venues are important and paramount in the struggle to reclaim the Constitutional Republic.

However, none of them has the impact voting has on producing the transformation required. Voting is the ultimate sword that can sever the ugly head of tyranny from the body politic.

Let’s get ready to Vote again!
