TEA Party Wins Big In Texas!!!!!!!

Ted Cruz defeats establishment backed David DewhurstTEA Party candidates in Texas rock the establishment! Ted Cruz wins over establishment backed David Dewhurst for the Republican nomination to replace Kay Bailey Hutchison. Dr. Donna Campbell wins the nomination over 7 term incumbent Texas State Senator Jeff Wentworth by a 2 to 1 margin. Jessica Puente Bradshaw wins over Adela Garza and the list goes on.

Moderate Texas House Speaker, Joe Straus, lost two more allies with Sid Miller and Chuck Hopson losing to J.D. Sheffield and Travis Clardy. Unfortunately, TEA Party backed Jim Landtroop lost his re-election bid to Ken King. Empower Texans’ Michael Quinn Sullivan said of the race, “The night produced only one somber note: State Rep. Jim Landtroop lost to Ken King. Just like conservative State Rep. Wayne Christian’s loss in May, the Straus team beat Mr. Landtroop only by giving him an 80% new district, out-spending him, and lying about his record. (That’s apparently the only way the Straus team can beat conservatives.)”

Additional significant wins in yesterday’s runoff elections were Greg Bonnen over Ryan Sitton, Jeff Leach over Jon Cole, Drew Springer over Trent McKnight, and Stephanie Klick over Den Sapp.

The biggest winners of yesterday were Ted Cruz, Donna Campbell, and grassroots conservatives in Texas and across the country.

Jack Hoogendyk for US Congress - Michigan

Jack Hoogendyk for Congress - MichiganComing off huge wins in Texas, we turn our attention to Michigan. Jack Hoogendyk is looking to unseat incumbent Congressman Fred Upton and we want to help. Upton was one of the few Republicans to support the Brady bill and Upton also was a co-sponsor of the 2007 energy bill making light bulbs illegal. Hoogendyk, on the other hand, is a Constitutional conservative and advocate for smaller government and personal liberty.
The Citizens for Traditional Values PAC has endorsed Hoogendyk saying, “We commend Jack for his ongoing public service both locally and statewide. He has consistently demonstrated personal integrity. And Jack’s tenacity for the preservation of life, the defense of our individual freedoms and the importance of faith and family to society is refreshing. We need more leaders like Jack who understand the vital need for financial and government restraint to serve in Congress! He will make an excellent voice for our values in Washington DC.”
Hoogendyk also has widespread conservative support from groups like the Madison Project, RedState, iCaucus, Gun Owners of America, and TEAParty911.com’s founder, Michael Kinzie, has also endorsed Hoogendyk in his bid to replace Upton.

We would love to see Jack add his name to the list of grassroots victories over the establishment that have been racking up across the country in states like Wisconsin, Indiana, Oklahoma, and Texas, but we need your help. With the election date of August 7th almost upon us, we need grassroots volunteers to help with phone banking for Jack. Details below…

Oregon Man Sentenced to 30 Days in Jail --
for Collecting Rainwater on His Property
~ CNSNews.com

A rural Oregon man was sentenced Wednesday to 30 days in jail and over $1,500 in fines because he had three reservoirs on his property to collect and use rainwater.
Gary Harrington of Eagle Point, Ore., says he plans to appeal his conviction in Jackson County (Ore.) Circuit Court on nine misdemeanor charges under a 1925 law for having what state water managers called “three illegal reservoirs” on his property – and for filling the reservoirs with rainwater and snow runoff.

“The government is bullying,” Harrington told CNSNews.com in an interview Thursday.
“They’ve just gotten to be big bullies and if you just lay over and die and give up, that just makes them bigger bullies. So, we as Americans, we need to stand on our constitutional rights, on our rights as citizens and hang tough. This is a good country, we’ll prevail,” he said.

The court has given Harrington two weeks to report to the Jackson County Jail to begin serving his sentence.

The Sentinel Newsletter

The SENTINEL

The SENTINEL Newsletter is an excellent monthly publication distributed by the Lake Country Republican Club in Texas. Now why, you ask, would a TEA Party organization be supporting a publication from a Republican group? Quite simply, it’s that good.

The brain behind the SENTINEL is a man named Terrell AronSpeer. Terrell is by far one of the most gifted writers whose work I have ever had the pleasure of reading and folks, I read a lot. Terrell writes his editorials and op-eds using his sharp wit, intellect, and enough anecdotal references to make Dennis Miller look like an amateur. I would be remiss if I did not mention Terrell’s lovely wife, Lynn, who is the editor behind the editor.

The Lake Country group is led by Greg Bowen who is a great leader and also a personal friend. Greg was the driving force behind forming the Wood County Leadership Council which united the area Republicans, TEA Party, 9.12, and We the People groups throughout Wood County, Texas. Our hats go off to Greg for his leadership in advancing the true conservative cause in Texas.

Therefore, we are happy to share the SENTINEL with our readers.

Texas 2012 Primary Runoff Elections

The TEA Party Lives

by Ned Ryun (Madison Project)
Yesterday during an interview I was asked, again, if the Tea Party is diminishing. I replied no, not at all. Let’s be clear: because you can’t see the Tea Party protesting and doing street theater doesn’t mean it’s dying off. Street theater, rallies, protests are great for publicity and media, but the Tea Party has moved past that into the work that brings real political change. As I’ve stated previously, one of the ways that the Tea Party strength would be gauged in 2012 was how it would perform in GOP US Senate primaries and in Wisconsin for the Walker Recall. So let’s just take a little walk down memory lane on how those primaries turned out:

1. Indiana Primary: Richard Mourdock 61%, Dick Lugar 39%. That’s defined as a massacre.

2. Nebraska Primary: Deb Fischer + Don Stenberg 59%, Jon Bruning 36%. 60% voted against the establishment candidate.

3. The Walker Recall: Scott Walker wins by nearly 50,000 more votes in recall than he did in November 2010 elections. Tea Party went head-to-head with unions for over a year and won pretty much every time.

4. Texas Primary: Ted Cruz, 56%, David Dewhurst, 44%. That’s pretty much a good old fashioned behind-the-woodshed, rented mule beating. More
