SUPPORT BROGDON 2010

[msbobbie]

I wanted to share a speech I gave supporting Randy Brogdon at a recent Republican event here in LeFlore County.


Randy Brogdon is a Christian man, a deacon in his church. He is a husband, father and a former business owner in the heating and air conditioning trade.

He is both fiscally and socially conservative, with the best interest of Oklahoma and our Republic in his heart.

He has been voted Oklahoma’s most conservative legislator for 4 straight years. I have heard tell that he is also the most difficult to get along with.

Randy does not compromise. He sticks with what he believes to be right. In the 2006 special session Randy and one other Senator, Scott Pruitt, were the only ones to vote against legislation introduced in the special session, SB90X. SB90X allowed the legislature to spend $457 million in excess revenue instead of returning it to the taxpayers as the State Constitution requires them to do.

Randy is completing his second term in the State Senate. Unlike some other candidates seeking higher office, he is not term limited and could easily coast through another win to 4 more years in the Senate.

Randy Brogdon was the principle author of legislation that would have allowed the people of Oklahoma to decide by ballot initiative if we should put the State Legislature on a diet. SQ726 was also referred to as Stop Over Spending and TABOR light.

Randy Brogdon supports parent’s rights to decide how their children will be educated, lower taxes for Oklahomans, citizen’s rights concerning abusing eminent domain and tort reform to control frivolous lawsuits.

He has fought diligently against the NAFTA Superhighway coming through Oklahoma, the REAL ID act, illegal immigration, and most recently claiming tenth amendment rights against an overpowering and over reaching U.S. Congress.

Randy urged Governor Henry to reject the stimulus money headed our way because of the strings attached that Oklahomans cannot afford. Ask the people in Perkins.

If you want a governor that thinks like you do, believes what you believe, and will govern our State business the way you govern your home......

you want Randy Brogdon to be your next governor.

Excellent! May I have your permission to re-post this elsewhere on the web?

[msbobbie]

Absolutely! Goldie. Thank you! And anyone else. I have sent it to Randy and to Pat Highland too.

Yep...Randy is the REAL deal
He was an early supporter of Tom Tancredo for President in '08

[msbobbie]

Yes he was an early supporter to the Tank. Great to see you TC!

I drove to Tulsa a couple of weeks ago to get campaign material from Pat and Randy joined us for lunch. I told him about posting the speech here and Goldie asking permission to post it elsewhere.

Randy said "ABSOLUTELY!" and was very grateful.

He made a quick trip to Poteau last week to speak with a gathering of elderly in the community who cannot get out in the evening. I was only able to muster up about 20 people, but they all live in different areas, attend different churches, have their own networks of family and friends. They gossip and they vote. Randy was very well received.

Then I took him to the local radio station for a 15 minute live on air interview. He was great!

Support has continued to build for Randy in my neck of the woods. LeFlore County is quite rural and has 38 precincts. I have supporters in nearly all of them making phone calls and home visits.

Myself, I have only talked to 1 person who said she would vote for Mary Fallin.

We will have a Special Election on July 27 to increase sales taxes that I hope will draw a lot more people to the polls.

14 days and two hours to go.

When Sarah Palin endorsed Mary Fallin, I wrote Tom and Bay begging for an endorsement for Randy, but have not heard anything about that.

I am NOT a fan of Brogdon. I like Robert Jackson a lot better. He's the only who's presented a plan to bring Oklahoma out of the dark ages. State law says that liquor stores and car dealerships can't be open on Sundays. Talk about a controlling government. I think this guy has been the only one to present a well defined plan to get the economy moving again.

Then why didn't you start a topic for your candidate instead of spamming mine? Click on NEW TOPIC at the top of the Governor '10 page.

I am disappointed Randy lost the statewide race, but I promised and delivered LeFlore County; decisively.

I will continue to support him in whatever he decides to do.
