It Sucks to Be Right.......

Nope. It feels great to be right tonight.

Only. Who were the 15,000 idiots who voted for John M Toplikar?

Seriously. WTF.

Jerry Moran will be the next Senator from Kansas and FINALLY a conservative will retake the 3rd District.

Lots of great work by many grassroots level conservatives.

I chatted with Patricia Lightner online last night briefly. She looks like Ann Archer to me. She ran a good race. Yoder was just too strong.

How can you not be excited about Moran and Yoder representing Kansas for a long time?

Truly, it is time for all REAL conservatives to come together and support our candidates.

Congrats to the people who worked so hard on these campaigns. I've been on both sides.

BTW, it was a good week on the blog. I surpassed 15,000 unique visitors since I started keeping track which was about when I started making fun of Tom Scherer...........and Dems send him packing to Florida tonight..........shocker.

Vaya Con Dios.

Early Voting Ends Soon! I Just Voted.

I went and early voted this morning in Olathe. There were no lines at all. A sign on the door said "Early Voting Ends at Noon Today". That is just an hour away so run over there if you need to advance vote. I was literally in and out in less than 10 minutes.

That said I want to urge you again to vote either today or tomorrow for Jerry Moran for US Senate.

I've had some fun with this particular race.

I've become exceedingly weary of the way our government spends money. I'm tired of how they borrow and spend, borrow and spend, borrow and spend some more.

I've also tired of the same old arguments that feel like the same old nature-nuture arguments pitting government entitlements versus tax rates. Really, just like the nature-nuture argument it is almost always BOTH.

Our biggest problem is that we commonly have kept taxes low and spending high. It simply doesn't work. I've written before and I continue to believe that the worst crime our generation is committing is the debt we are putting on our kids and grandkids.

We can't afford the government we have. More importantly, our kids and grandkids can't afford the government we have. Nobody talks about this enough. Nobody has the courage to cut spending.

The government spending needs to be minimized the same way everyone else is cutting their personal spending.

I'm becoming convinced it isn't as much about tax rates at all. Of course keeping them fair and low enough to encourage investment is important but we all know from personal, simple experience that it is easiest to minimize what you spend than to find more income.

That is what drove my vote today. I believe Jerry Moran is a common sense Conservative. He voted against the stimulus spending and the bailouts. I believe he doesn't have a sense of entitlement and understands Kansas core values which includes living within your means. I believe character and ethics do matter.

I believe in the value of life. I believe all life is precious. I am pro life. So is Jerry. This pro-lifer voted for Jerry Moran.

I'm being watched from DC

I have a neat little tool on my site that gives me some intelligence on visitors to the blog. I've noticed the past couple weeks I've had someone from through the server of the House of Representatives of the United Freaking States of America checking out the blog.

They seem especially interested in the posts on Todd T-Hard-On.

I'm sure they are just interested in what the average JOCO conservative is thinking........maybe some insight as to how he is getting his ass kicked in the polls so much.

Now, I know that wouldn't be any kind of campaign work because doing campaign work with the government's resources would be wrong..........and I know T-Hard-On would never consider something less than ethical. Prolly just a fan of the blog :-)

I just thought it was interesting that I have a fan over in DC. Keep reading. I am the jocoeveryman.

Tiahrt Pharisees Take Exception to Negative Campaigning.

While the racist fringe that endorsed Todd T-Hard-On was being expelled from the Tea Party over the weekend I enjoyed having my blog stoned by the zealots over at the Tiahrt campaign.

The whole purpose of the over the top comments of my post of last week was to highlight the ridiculous nature of the charges being thrown around by the Tiahrt campaign.........and sadly followed by the Moran campaign. What we have are two guys whose views on the issues are basically the same and one who because he finds himself waaaaaaaaaayyyyy behind is resorting to the most negative primary tactics I've seen around here in quite awhile. You don't have to look at polls to see who is behind. It is almost always the guy who is the most desperate.

Just to be clear...........while I am voting for Jerry Moran on August 3rd.........I am not apart of his campaign in anyway. I'm just an idiot blogger and former member of the pharisee-fundamentalist right.....until I grew up and realized the world was bigger than Kansas.

I really enjoyed the church lady-esque comments..........."I could barely read that filth"....yet somehow she did.

Hello Pot........................Meet Mr. Kettle.

Matthew 7:2-5 (New King James Version)

2 For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the
measure you use, it will be measured back to you. 3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? 5 Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

Tiahrt v Moran.....getting saucy

Yes, I'm still blogging. Yes, I was serious that I am willing to let someone take this dump of a blog over. Just to be clear.....to say the blog is for sale was a joke....cause it would be free.

Until then.....I'll keep blogging. Probably nastier than ever.

For those watching the Kansas Senate race, which really will be determined in the primary, it is getting very saucy.

Negative stuff is flying. Both are trying to prove they are most conservative by saying the other is more liberal.

I've actually been a little perplexed that T-hard-on is getting the far right support and that he is still losing so badly. There is a change happening in Kansas Republican politics. Guys like Lance Kinzer are supporting him and he is perhaps the most conservative person I've ever met. It seems like he has captured the extreme pro-life support in a race where there is very little difference really in the positions of the two candidates. Really, they are more alike than different on the issues. It saddens me that people like Sarah Palin endorses T-hard-on too. I'm guessing Fred Phelps is for T-hard-on too.

The only difference I can see is integrity and common sense AND one guy who is grounded in Kansas and another who spends most of his time in Washington. I like the guy who hasn't forgotten from where he comes. I like the guy who looks forward to coming home.

I hate to be direct but Tiahrt looks like a guy who fucks interns. I'm just saying.

I'm ultra conservative......my liberal friends mock me and call me Rush when they are drunk. I like to party with them except they think everyone else should pay for their drinks.....and they aren't hot. Stupid eh? Hot people deserve free drinks, don't you think? Ugly people pay up.

Yesterday, I had my Moran sign delivered and placed in front yard by a handy little campaign worker. My only complaint......next time send a cute hottie. On a side note.....Jesus.....Mr. Tiahrt can you please tell you people to stop polluting our public spaces with your signs? Seriously.......does it help you for the median up and down Nall to be a big supporter?

My conservo-meter is as finely tuned as my gay-dometer (not that it matters cause I love gay people).....but I can pick'em. I can pick a fake conservative at 500 feet. Jerry Moran is a true, real, common sense conservative. He probably is the ideal Kansas conservative.

I am supporting Jerry Moran. I know most of you are too. Be proud. Moran will represent us well.

Okay....completely off the subject...............to my dumb ass neighbors............4th of July is long past. Will you please stop it with the fireworks. Damn....I'm trying to put my kids to bed.

It has been a good run......This blog is for sale....cheap.

This blog has been tons of fun. I've actually kept it going WAY longer than I ever thought.

I still have plenty on my mind just no time to get it down and hit the post button. I just can't keep it up on a consistent basis. I thought election season would inspire me. I noticed signs from people I didn't even know were running....and I follow this crap. Anyway.....Tiahrt seems to be getting some momentum but the outcome seems defined for JOCO and I'm more than comfortable with it. Yoder will win the 3rd and Moran will be our next Senator and is there any doubt that Brownback with be the Gov for 2 terms or possibly one with another run for President.

Anyway.......I've decided to end my regular postings on this blog. Some of you (should I say both of you) have been very loyal readers and I really appreciate that you were interested in anything I've had to write.

There are so many really good local blogs. SOB, Sinic, and Tony: you certainly inspired me and there are so many other really good bloggers as well....too many to name. Thank you for supporting me when Tom wanted to kill me :-) and for the encouragement. I'll keep reading.

I want to thank everyone who has read and contributed so much over the years.

So, seriously, if you or someone you know might want to take over as the voice of Jocoeveryman....or woman I guess for that matter let me know. It is isn't very technical. If you can write an email you can manage a blog. It isn't technically for sale but I'd be happy to hand it over to someone who wants to take a crack at it.

Send me an email at jocoeveryman@hotmail.com if you are interested.

You can have it all for one low, low price.

Assets include:

Moran for Kansas. I am for Moran.

As the Obama agenda seems to progress like, well, a Joy Behar joke (not funny, no punch line but nobody will seem to stop her) it seems that the best thing to do is send our best leadership as reinforcement to Washington.

We need leadership.

We need Jerry Moran.

This is who I'm supporting for Senate. What this ad is saying in a nice way is that Jerry Moran hasn't lost touch with who he is as a Kansan and the conservative and common sense values. I think we have all seen the Washington types who forget what it is like in the very district or state they represent. They get too comfy in DC. They want to impress their wine and cheese friends. They start to "evolve" as they say. One weekend they decide to stay and attend a party in Georgetown and then the next they have a staff member's birthday party and the next there is some fancy pants person in from out of town so they stay for that little deal as well. Next thing you know you are smoking crack with Mayor Marion Berry....kidding about that part......but they get out of the habit coming home until it seems more normal to just stay except you know just for holidays.....anyway that is where their friends are now, right?

Wrong. Jerry understands that to represent us you have to know us and understand what is going on back home as well as in DC. This seems like the kind of guy we need as a US Senator.

Not shocking I'm sure from this conservative. This will be an endorsement that I'm sure the Moran camp will be incredibly proud :-).
