Texas GOP = GOOD; Democrats = "Hail Satan, I Hope You're Raped, Kill Babies"

The last couple of weeks in Texas have really exposed Democrats for who they really are, an unruly mob who, when they do not get their way, decide to disrupt the legislature; they oppose the strong majority of Americans by wanting to allow late term abortions; they send their children out to protest with vulgar signs; they call for women pro-life legislators and even call for their daughters to be raped, and they even chant "Hail Satan" as pro-life Republicans sing Amazing Grace. Congratulations, the Democrat Party has become Occupy Wall Street 2.0. I hope all you conservative Democrats are watching and realize that the Democrat Party is not for you. They do not share your values. The Democrat Party that you once knew has left you and has embraced radical liberal ideology.

The Republican Party is the Party for you. We are the Party that your values align with. The Republican Party Platform is a set of values that we can believe in because these values have made America great! Sure, sometimes I do articles that criticize the Texas GOP for not abiding by our good platform, but that is not because I do not like the Texas GOP, it is because I DO like the Party and believe in the Party Platform values and I know that the best way to keep the Party strong is to help keep it from straying from our values.

Here is the Shocking Truth of What the pro-abortion Democrats and their Mobs have done Over the Past Couple of Weeks:

While Republicans in Texas seek to ban late term abortions after 20 weeks because the little babies can feel pain when they have their little arms and legs ripped off, the Texas Democrats, with leader Wendy Davis, are doing everything they can to allow late term abortions to continue. Democrat Wendy Davis made national headlines when she delayed these pro abortion restrictions by filibustering the bill at the end of the 2013 Texas Special Session. The media tried to run with the story and make her out to be a heroine and make Texas look bad for trying to restrict late term abortions. This plan by the Democrats and the media backfired because, well, the fact is that the large majority of Americans are AGAINST late term abortions, Several states already ban abortions after 20 weeks and most countries also have abortion bans after even just 10 weeks. Why? Because even Democrats in America do not believe that people should be able to have abortions after the first trimester when the baby is already very developed and can feel pain and has a heartbeat and little hands and little feet. So this plan by Wendy Davis and the Media backfired. The people of Texas and even America do not stand with Wendy and they do not agree with the Democrats. The majority of Texans #Stand4Life. Wendy Davis had to get help from Obama to get tweets flowing from mostly other states to support her. Texas Senator Ted Cruz took a stand and pointed out that Wendy Davis does not speak for Texas. Conservative Konni Burton has stepped up to the plate to run against Davis in what will be a hotly contested race.

Knowing they were losing, the media and the Democrats tried to distract people by crying out sexism. Hey everyone, look, the Republican men are against women and us Women Democrats are standing up for women. The people did not buy into that distraction either. Why? Because the biggest proponents of this pro-life bill, and even the main authors of the bill, are WOMEN REPUBLICANS. these Women put forth the bill as a way to protect what is best for both WOMEN and unborn WOMEN both mentally and physically. Kermit Gosnell style abortion clinics are dangerous, unregulated, and unhealthy for women. Late Term Abortions are damaging to women who live with the regret of ripping apart a little baby who could feel pain, not to mention late term abortions are horrible for the baby who has to feel the pain and never gets a chance to live. And yes, although Wendy Davis and RINO Joe Straus did not like it, Governor Rick Perry was right, you got a chance to live and overcome the odds Wendy Davis, so why not let another little baby have a chance? Speaking of trying to play the sexism card, one Texas Democrat legislator, Leticia Van De Putte, even made the outrageous statement on the Senate floor "what does a woman legislator have to do to be heard over the men in the room" This was outrageous because it assumes again that only men are for pro life issues when many women legislators are for the pro life bills; it was outrageous because the reason she was not heard was because of HER PARTY's mob in the room making noise; and to top it all off her statement was outrageous because it was her Party and her friend Wendy Davis who denied WOMEN Republican legislators the ability to speak on the Senate floor when the women wanted to give an opinion on the issue during her filibuster. Thankfully, many of these GOP women legislators, like Dr. Donna Campbell, got on the national news and, as a women, let America can know that Wendy Davis does NOT represent the majority of women and pro life bills are not sexist and not just pushed by men but also by women.

The Democrat Party became an UNRULY MOB when they knew that they were not going to get their way. This mob did not like what the elected officials at the State Capitol in Austin, TX were voting on so they swarmed the Capitol and purposely disrupted the Legislature to keep them from being able to vote. They knew that that they could not win the majority of the hearts and minds of Texas voters who want to end late term abortions, so they decided to use Occupy Wall Street tactics to stop the vote. The chaos that ensued over the next several days included this unruly Democrat mob calling for women pro-life Legislators to be raped. Where was the mainstream media to protect these women Republicans who were being threatened with rape? Oh yeah, they are Republicans so who cares about protecting those women right? They paraded their children through the streets with vulgar, profanity filled signs that had written on it things like "If I wanted government in my V****a I would f**k a senator." Really? you have your kid hold that sign? The worst part of the kids holding signs is that these kids are holding signs that advocate for their parents being able to kill them, the kids.

And last but not least, when the unruly mob opposed a pro life woman speaking at the State Capitol and when they opposed the pro life people singing "Amazing Grace," the Democrat pro-abortion mob started chanting "Hail Satan." The video of this Democrat mob chanting "Hail Satan" made national media headlines because it was just so outrageous that it would be hard to believe without video. The official Church of Satan even came out and made a statement denouncing the Democrat mob chanting "Hail Satan." That is right, even the Satan worshipers think the Democrat pro-abortion mobs are too extreme for them.

So let me ask you again, do the Liberal Democrat actions and values represent who you are and what you believe? My guess is the answer is NO for most Americans. Take a look at the Republican Party. Our values and actions likely DO represent you better. We are for helping you find a job and support a family by helping create jobs and keeping taxes low. We are for supporting all humans whether black or white or old or unborn. We are for protecting America the enemies who want to attack and kill us because they hate our freedom.

Join us MONDAY July 8th, 2013 at 7p.m. for a PRO-LIFE RALLY at the Texas Capitol Building in Austin, TX. the lineup of speakers will be great from national pro life groups and advocates like former Governor Mick Huckabee to local State Leaders like Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott.

Pro-Abortion Protesters Threaten Female Texas State Senator: ‘I hope you’re raped.’

the following article is from PJ Media: http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2013/07/02/pro-abortion-protesters-threaten-female-texas-state-senator-i-hope-youre-raped/


A vignette from what has become an ugly week in Texas.
State senator Donna Campbell, who issued the third point of order against Davis’s filibuster (which ended it), has also been the target of extensive verbal abuse from pro-choice protesters, according to her spokesman Jon Oliver.
They’ve received Facebook messages and e-mails saying, “I hope you’re raped” and “I hope your daughter’s raped,” Oliver tells me.

“Lots of language — ‘You’re an effin’ blank,’ ‘You are a traitor to women’ — those kind of things,” Oliver says. “I wouldn’t say anything’s necessarily a direct threat, but they’re the kind of e-mails that make you a little nervous, especially when you start talking about family members: ‘I hope your family members are raped.’”
Dr. Campbell, an ER physician in Austin, is a wife and a mother. The national media have not lionized Dr. Campbell for standing up. They are not writing about her shoes or her courage. There has been no campaign to fill her office with flowers.

Flawed CSCOPE Needs SBOE Oversight says State Board of Education Member David Bradley



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 26, 2013

SUBJECT:  CSCOPE CURRICULUM

From:  DAVID BRADLEY, State Board of education, District 7

Contact:  Theone Bradley
                    bttbradley@yahoo.com
                    409-745-9195


         Many are asking questions about the accessibility, content and structure of CSCOPE, which is now being used in 80 percent of Texas school districts. Some call it “curriculum,” while others describe it simply as “lesson plans.” Its development began a decade ago when teachers were looking for lesson plans to align with new standards being adopted by the State Board of Education (SBOE). By law, curriculum is reviewed by the SBOE, while lesson plans are not. In essence, CSCOPE is now an online curriculum program marketed to individual school districts by members of the Regional Education Service Centers. It was not coordinated through the Texas Education Agency, and it was never reviewed or approved by the SBOE to assure conformity with Texas curriculum standards.

         Concerns regarding parental access stem from the ten-page CSCOPE contract that teachers are required to sign prior to using the curriculum. It prohibits educators from showing CSCOPE content to parents. This directly conflicts with the state law assuring parents the right to review any and all curriculum used in public schools to instruct their children. In this same vein, it took the Chairman of our Education Board six months to obtain an access password from CSCOPE developers known as the Texas Education Service Center Curriculum Collaborative (TESCCC). The TESCCC board is comprised of the 20 executive directors of the 20 publicly funded Regional Education Service Centers in Texas. Access to their meetings and minutes was repeatedly denied until the Texas Attorney General insisted that their meetings be posted and open to the public in accordance with the Texas Open Meetings Act.

         Reports of questionable CSCOPE content range from viewing the Boston Tea Party as an act of terrorism to requiring students to design a flag for a new socialist country. One document handed out during a 2012 CSCOPE summer training session called for rigid compliance with CSCOPE content, stating that steps should be taken to ensure that “individual teachers do not have the option to disregard or replace assigned content.” Yet today, the CSCOPE website claims that CSCOPE curriculum is “customizable” and “aligned with” Texas state standards. 

         Also of concern is the fact that state employees have used public funds to develop a product and are then turning around and selling it to Texas schools. Texas taxpayers are essentially paying for the work twice. And despite protestations that the Regional Service Centers have yet to “break even on their investment,” any amount of money paid for CSCOPE multiplied by four million Texas students is a hefty sum! In my mind, there is an obvious conflict of interest when employees of the Regional Service Centers decide to market their own product to a captive audience of school districts that they are already employed to serve.

         In order to cut costs and bolster competition, SB 6 of the 2011 legislative session expanded the term, “instructional materials,” to include hardware, software, etc. Textbook money is now sent directly to individual school districts, which are no longer required to purchase SBOE-approved curriculum that has been reviewed and certified as conforming to state standards. This month, the Texas Legislature took measures to regulate CSCOPE after learning of the issues described above. Senators Dan Patrick and Donna Campbell filed SB 1406, which, if passed, would require CSCOPE to come under the authority and scrutiny of the SBOE.

         We have apparently come full circle. In the quest for taxpayer savings, we are being double-billed, and higher state standards are being set aside for online curriculum that can be changed with a simple keystroke. In the short term, SB 1406 needs our support so CSCOPE can be brought under the review of the SBOE to ensure content compliance for our Texas students. In the long term, new legislation and contracts must be developed for the new era of online education resources so we can continue to ensure Texas’ high standards of content are met.

TEXAS SENATORS TAKE REAL ACTION AGAINST CSCOPE -- SB 1406 - By Donna Garner

The following article is from Donna Garner:


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Logan Spence (512) 463-0107

TEXAS SENATOR DONNA CAMPBELL AND SENATOR DAN PATRICK FILE CSCOPE BILL  -- SB 1406

AUSTIN— Senator Donna Campbell has joined Senator Dan Patrick as author of SB 1406 that will enact significant reforms of CSCOPE.


CSCOPE, is a teaching management tool with lesson plans that have come under scrutiny with parents, teachers, and legislators over the past year. In February, Senator Patrick conducted a Senate Education Committee hearing with CSCOPE representatives that exposed problems including a lack of management oversight, a lack of transparency, questionable lesson plans, and troubling legal documents.


Since the hearing, Senator Patrick was able to get CSCOPE to agree to the following:

1. Begin the process of closing down the non-profit corporation controlling CSCOPE.
2. Immediately open up all meetings to the public.
3. Begin the process of turning over lessons for review by the SBOE. The first set of lesson plans will be social study lesson plans
4. Begin to put lesson plans on the CSCOPE website and make them easy to locate and read.
5. Establish an oversight board comprised in part by both parents and non-parents.

Senator Patrick and Campbell have filed SB 1406 in order to ensure these reforms are placed in statute. "The agreed-to reforms were a step in the right direction, but they still have much to do and need to do it sooner than later," said Senator Patrick.

"If they don't get their act together soon, they run the risk of having the entire program shut down," said Senator Campbell.

"No educational curriculum should ever leave parents in the dark. This bill ensures parents have access to the material and that it's correct, credible, and consistent with what Texans want taught in our schools," Sen. Campbell said. "CSCOPE must go through the same rigorous review process as our textbooks."

"My recommendation is that CSCOPE remove itself from supplying lesson plans to school districts and go back to the original mission of the supplying a management tool for teachers to keep them on pace to teach the TEKS as required," said Patrick. "If they continue to supply lesson plans that are flawed, incorrect, or raise concerns about content, they risk closure of the entire program.

Sen. Campbell Files Bill to Stop Vote Poaching/Fraud and Stop Dead People Voting in San Antonio, TX

Texas has a Vote Poaching problem. Ballots and votes are being stolen. Voter Fraud is real. State Senator Donna Campbell has filed a bill (SB 554) to stop the voter fraud and to stop dead people from voting in San Antonio, TX.
San Antonio, TX seems to be ground zero for this problem. Texas Conservative Republican Hispanic Weston Martinez uncovered just the tip of an iceberg last year.
