On July 21, I spoke with loyal staffer Mike Patterson. I said Mike, Mr. Moore should present Health Care reform to his constituents.
Patterson said that Moore does not like to meet with groups. He wants to meet one on one. He is afraid to discuss issues outside of Washington.
I am not sure what the solution is. Possibilities include:
1) Thousands of us making an appointment
2) Staging a peaceful demonstration at his office or home
3) What else? I am not sure

An Idea For Conservatism
I am a recovering left winger. During the 1960's/70's, I was active in demonstrating against the Vietnam War. I was chased on the streets of Washington, D.C. on mayday 1971. I saw the goons dispatched by Nixon emptying out of Hertz box rental trucks wielding big clubs and swinging them at just about anyone. I was exposed early to very left wing ideas.
Yet, after filtering out information, reading, talking ... you know .... finding out for myself, I decided that I was indeed a conservative on most issues. Liberterian on some, maybe liberal on one or two. But decidedly conservative.
I had no religious upbringing. I am not now religious.
I have observed that many liberals and moderates view conservatives carte blanche as the Religious Right. That is just not so. I see the religious right as part of the conservative umbrella.
I make the case to not make religion a centerpiece of conservatism. Values are not limited to the religious.
I propose that Secular Conservatism is perhaps one way to get the message out. There are many moderates that don't like the perceived religious underpinnings of conservatism. Personally, I could not care less about a persons individual characteristics ... religion, race, sexual preference, income, cars they drive, where they came from ... any of it.
This idea of Secular Conservatism is not new ... it is just now prominent. I don't know the person, but there is a blog entitled secularconservative.net
How does this relate to Dennis Moore? Glad you asked. The more we can expand the universe of persons open to defeating Dennis, the more likely it is to send him packing. He needs a real job again.
It's nothing personal Dennis. It is just that your party is behaving like they are in a Roman orgy ... of money. Any democrats defeated bring a chance for financial reality.

My Own Small Effort For Change
Okay, I almost can't take it anymore. I decided that rather than just raise my blood pressure on all issues, to channel my energy to something that I may be able to influence ... Dennis Moore's occupation.
Washington has truly run amuck. It is out of control. I am not sure what "ISM" is coming out of Washington, but I am sure there has been a polar reversal. What was "pro American" is now considered radical. What was anti-American is now in command.
Socialism? Marxism? Fascism? Statism? Probably a combination of those but the President (I use a capital P out of respect for the office) is the most statist, authoritarian, narcissist elected politician I have ever seen.
My small effort for change is to help expose how Dennis Moore is participating in the carnage. The alleged blue dog, guitar playing democrat from a red state needs to find a new job. If you have ever spoken to one of his sometimes indugnant (but well paid) phone help, you may agree that Dennis and his assistants are too enamored of the power of Washington.
My very first blog ever was caused by the Climate Change bill he voted for. You may know this bill, House Bill H.R. 2454, as the Cap and Trade bill. But no, Dennis and his lying staffers admit to no such bill. They say the Honorable Mr. Moore only voted foe a Jobs bill.
HUH? WHat is that.
The people that have stolen power, and trillions of dollars (that would be the group collectively know as the democrats), realized that Americans do not consider global warming (if it is occurring) as an important issue. Cap and Trade simply puts the highly efficient government in charge of ALL energy use and therefore all industry (except gool ole "volunteer" groups like acorn. But more about these issues later.
The purpose of House Bill 2454 is to try and influence the surface temperature of the earth. The method to do so was by reducing energy use INVOLUNTARILY. The government will tell you what you can use and they will set the price.
But in order to sell these insane ideas, the dems created a jobs bill. IT IS NOT A JOBS BILL.
Dennis Moore ... YOU ARE LYING TO YOUR DISTRICT. You are trying to implement total government control over energy use. The result of the bill would be greatly increased energy cost, government control over energy usage. Effect on Climate? None. More government? Yes. Oh I get it, it increases the number of green workers that monitor energy use.
Mr. Moore ... you called out on this subject. Calling your office is worthless. Communicating to others may be helpful.
