Greetings All,

It’s hardly news that Saxby plays golf in only the finest venues around the country, $50,000 dollars for a golf weekend! On his salary? Over here at Bludgeon & Skewer we were talking about that way back in the way back in September of ‘08 as we assisted Allen Buckley (L) with his US Senate Campaign. One of our projects was the development of some really incendiary AM radio ads that compared and contrasted the inimitable Senator Chambliss with the man he defeated for his Senate seat, Max Cleland. Sadly, the ad was deemed to incindiary by Allen and he refused to run it, evidence that Allen has far better taste than we do. Still, it’s one of our favorites and is available for your auditory pleasure right here http://sites.google.com/site/bludgeonskewer/Home.

Leopards do not change their spots and neither do corrupt politicians. It is time for change and you should consider the Libertarian alternative in 2010. You can throw away your vote on the Democrat or Republican party candidates and continue to suffer the slings and arrows of their indifference to you the voter. Or you can slap them in the face by casting your ballot for Libertarian John Monds for Governor and the rest of the merry Libertarian crew that will be running with him in 2010.

Greetings All,

Well the payphone is ringing off the hook over here at the Secret Underground Libertarian Command Center (LCC) with the news that good ol’ King Roy is shopping for a new political party as well as quotes from various and sundry waterproofing companies. Fortunately we already have a stellar candidate for the 2010 Governor’s race, John Monds will be the standard bearer for the Georgia LP following our convention next year.

The guys and gals at the LCC have high hopes for the upcoming cycle and we think it’s possible that the public’s general disgust with the Republican/Democrat Duopoly might lead to Mr. Monds breaking the 20% vote barrier and freeing the Georgia LP from the chains of Georgia’s 1943 Jim Crow Ballot access laws. In the meantime we’ll microwave some popcorn and see if this story has any real legs while we devise clever posters for the impending Governors race run-off.

One last note, the Georgia LP is the only recognized “Political Body” in Georgia and will make every effort to field a full slate of candidates for statewide office to support Mr. Monds historic run for the Governorship in 2010. That means a Libertarian Insurance Commissioner, Secretary of State, Agriculture Commissioner, Attorney General and all the rest voicing the need for Smaller Government, Lower Taxes and More Freedom!

A Blast from the Past

Well Whadda You Know,

I was digging around over at the old Bludgeon & Skewer website and ran across some of our first internet political work. I liked it so much I decided to drag it out of the mists of time and deposit it here in the present. Just click on the title of this post and you'll be magically transported back to NOV 08 and be able to hear some of our unfunded political attack ads we wrote, produced and ran against Saxby Chambliss. Ah, the good old days!

Comment at Jason Pye on The Healthcare Insurance Mess

Hey Kids,

I just watched a video clip over at Jason Pye's site with Wolf Blitzer and The Axe man. Sure looks like Wolfie didn't read his copy of the talking points on the single payer mantra. Head over and join the fun, and as always, continue to click on political ads every step of the way!



Greetings All,

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Axemeister wiggle on the hook in the video snippet as he tried to shift the focus away from the simple concept of purchasing your insurance coverage from a provider located in a state with fewer coverage mandates and lower regulatory burdens than your home state.

But why draw the line there? In this electronic age, Switzerland is just as close as Columbus, Georgia and is home to some of the best capitalized insurance companies in the world with all sorts of packaging options. If they could compete in insurance markets in Georgia then perhaps Georgia consumers could get a better deal. As things stand now, we'll never know.

If you'd like to be overwhelmed with a dizzying array of state by state comparisons of the current mess, head over to http://www.statehousecall.org for a detailed look at things like state required mandates, provider regulatory burdens and my personal favorite, percentage of overweight/obese adults.

    Re-Write Central: OFA discovers find 90% it's supporters refuse to return thier calls or emails!

    Hey kids,

    Sure, you think it's a slow day and all of a sudden the brain trust over at WaPo publishes a puff piece on the mighty, mighty OFA titled "Grass-Roots Battle Tests the Obama Movement" by a cat named Eli Slaslow. Ya'll remember OFA don't you? That was the 13 or 14 million volunteers that flocked to Rockin' Barry O's banner last year during the general election, the guys and gals that were gonna be the vanguard of the perpetual progressive revolution that was going to remake and change America for the better. The core concept was that they represented the most dedicated of today's progressive movement and would magically appear whenever their master tweeted or sent a one line email requiring their presence to assist in furthering his leftist/progressive/statist/looney tune agenda. Guess what, Presbo sent out the call and almost 1.3 million of this vast horde responded, meaning that 11.7 million to 12.7 million of them could not be bothered. Hard core, baby, Hard core.

    So, as per SOP, we've decided to re-write the WaPo puff piece and are proud to present:

    OFA Zeppelin Runs Out of Gas and People!
    Obama supporters try to walk and chew gum at the same time!

    Speeding down an unfamiliar highway at 70mph in a rental car, tanked to the gills on caffine, texting like a madman and screaming "I'm on the verge, baby, I'm on the verge!" J. Bird, one of the Deputy Director's over at OAF, er ... OFA, turned to look at his companion clutching the dash in terror. "I'm Livin' on the edge!" screams J Bird in his best Steve Perry voice, his head thrashing back and forth in proper Big Hair Rock fashion and narrowly avoiding side swiping a semi truck on the downbeat.

    And so it goes for the remnant staff of the OAF, er... OFA. Mothballed shortly after the election, the organization is struggling to breathe life into it's membership once more and usher in the return of the Hopey Changey Thingy that won the 2008 election cycle. It's impressive legions scattered to the winds by indifference, it's paid staff sacked after the conclusion of the election, the few hangers on that survived the post election purges are being called on once more to sell the American public on the dubious proposition that is Obamacare. And like the greyhounds at race tracks in Florida and New Jersey, but not in the great State of Georgia, they have responded to the bell and are pounding down the track in pursuit of Sparky the rabbit in the guise of the "Public Option", what ever that turns out to be.

    Arriving at their destination in Racine, Wisconsin, J Bird and the sole surviving paid staff guy in Wisconsin, a dude named Dan "The Don" Grandone, sat down on the curb in front the Cup Of Hope coffee shop to collude with the last 10 members of OAF, er... OFA, still willing to admit it. "We need to flex our muscles on this and act fast, really fast, really, really fast because there's only a tiny sliver of a window to get an unwritten unread bill through the Senate before even more Americans come to their senses" J Bird rattled off in a staccato fashion "The whole reason I'm here is to rally what's left of the troops and tell them they are important, make them think they can influence events if they do what we tell them to when we tell them to. I don't have time for any sort of genuine grass roots thing. We need some freakin' astro turf laid and laid now! Get out there and make the support magically appear like we did last year!"

    The rest of the tiny group huddled on the curb and looked longingly at the people actually seated in the the Cup O Hope coffee shop actually having coffee. The standard litany of excuses began to be offered, you know, membership is stagnant right now because unemployment in Wisconsin is at 23% or something, people that ain't got no jobs have to spend their time looking for free food or free housing and so they don't got no time for volunteer work, the stinking right wing biased Main Stream Media have focused all the coverage on those rowdy republicans at the unscripted town halls at the first of August and now that we've been able to squash the public dissent by having rules and pointing video camera's at them and making them write their questions down on cards and stuff, those bastards won't give us any facetime because we're, well, because we're so freakin' boring repeating the OAF approved talking points, and well, the race card just isn't what it used to be.

    J Bird rose to his feet and began to lecture the pathetic remnant of a once mighty organization "look, I know there used to be 44 field offices here in Wisconsin and those offices had coffee pots and clean restrooms and unlimited internet. I know that the Obama Campaign had 100 full time staffers here in Wisconsin back then and Dan here is the last man standing today. That was then, this is now. I know a lot of you thought there was a future in politics, but only the best get the full time gigs like me. I've got 13 million email addresses in my pocket! 13 million ardent supporters! 13 million believers who promised to man the barricades if those uppity conservatives so much as squeaked! Do you know that 150,000 of our 13 million strong army gave almost $38 each to fund this effort? That's almost $5.7 million dollars! I know that sounds like a lot, but it'll only buy a limited run of our two pro Obama Care TV commercials in the top 12 markets for 8 days! The President himself spent almost an hour showing us the PowerPoint presentation! It's not enough to turn the tide and where are we now? In freakin' Racine freakin' Wisconsin begging the 10 of you to turn pull a miracle out of you hat. Can You Do It?!"

    The group rose in unison and shouted in unison "Yes we can!"

    J bird smiled quietly to himself as he realized his work in Racine was done. Turning to his wingman, he nodded to the waiting rental car and jumped into the drivers seat, deployed the Blackberry and texting furiously, sped off to the next corner of Wisconsin to meet with the second largest group of OAF, er ... OFA supporters over in Fond du Lac, a retired school teacher and her nephew.






    OK, if you want to read the story that WaPo pushed out, head over there and read it for yourself. Along the way be sure to click on a political ad or two, every time you click cash shows up magically in the adsense box and the ad sponsor has to pay. If enough of you do that, you can put a big financial hit on your least favored political party or candidate. Think of it as sort of a cellular revolt. Hit 'em where it hurts!
