Introduction

I'm tired of bailouts, TARP, billions& trillions, budget deficts, weak dollars, no gold standard, the Federal Reserve, the Treasury Dept., appointees who can't pay their taxes, politicians who refuse to cut spending, etc. I want to make a difference.

What Don Odom is saying about this Meetup Group

This group truly cares about our country and the direction it is headed in. More importantly they are willing to DO SOMETHING to change that direction. Too many people sit and complain but then say "you can't do anything about it" or a similar defeatist comment. This type of apathy is the worst because they are saying they see a problem but aren't willing to inconvenience themselves to fight for the country our founding fathers and veterans fought for. If you are tired of sitting on the couch yelling at the TV and are willing to get off your backside and DO SOMETHING, THEN you should join us. If you just want to have a place to gripe and complain and nothing else-KEEP MOVING. We don't need members who aren't willing to sacrifice time to help with the cause of turning this country around. Progressives are willing to support their causes with time and money BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE. We need that type of commitment on our side to stop their secular socialistic agenda.

Don,
I'm C. Steven Hosch (Radio/TV Name: Steven Reagan Myers). I'm a fellow patriot & active member of the Tea Party movement in Alabama. I'm launching a Multi-Media Forum Program under the umbrella of my company, FreedomTree LLC, which was conceived to promote, financially support, and encourage public contributions toward the cause of freedom and for those organizations that are in battle for it. I would like to provide you with more info.

Hey, Don! Thanks for the email. I was following those directions, and I was thinking, "Did I misread them?" Thankfully I left th house early enough and tried turning the other way:) I think that the group will gian momentum and increase in members and participation. I have joined the PR committee, and I'm very excited about the July 4th event!

Hey Don! Thanks for sharing your table with my daughter and me at tonight's meeting. It was a good meeting. We needed to have a vent session and to see that we are all on the same page and others are as concerned as we are. From there, we can organize and get structured in this battle. Take care and we'll be seeing you at future meetings. I'm gonna read one of the books Beck suggested and replace my faded American flag before our next meeting!

Wiregrass Patriots is a 527 nonprofit nonpartisan organization dedicated to educating our members and the public about the Constitution, Congress, candidates and current legislation. We do so by monthly meetings, American Ideas Seminars, handing out pocket Constitutions, and participation at various local events. When we host candidates, the purpose is so our members and the public can meet candidates and become educated as to individual platforms and make an informed decision in the voting booth. We believe it is EVERY citizen's responsibility to education themselves with the goal being to reach the status of "educated voter".

We don't all agree on 100% of ideas with each other. But we do agree on the most important things. We are NOT Democrats. We are NOT Republicans. We are AMERICANS!

1. Our country needs to return to the Constitution. We have been allowing it to be eroded for over 100 years- a little at the time just like boiling a frog. Its time for us to jump out of the pot and turn this country around!

2. Our government needs to start answering to US again. Government BY the people and OF the people. We need to be watchdogs guarding the Constitutional freedoms given to us by God with our diligence and
proactivity.

3. Our spending, borrowing and printing of money has dug America into a deep hole. It has reached a dire level and something must be done now. On a personal level get out of debt ASAP and be good stewards of what God has blessed you with. On a government level-hold your elected officials accountable when they are reckless with YOUR MONEY!

4. We hope to affect change working together and starting from the bottom up. From Local, to State, to Federal Government. No tax is too small to fight against. No freedom is too small to fight for. No individual is too big to be held accountable.

Those are a few of the things we have all seemed to agree on. There are others, many of which would fall under those main topics and others that wouldn't.

Welcome to our website and our group. If you feel the same way we do we hope you will join us and the 1.000.000+ other patriots across the US who have decided to take our country back.

The 912 project was created to bring people with the same beliefs together. The premise was to get America together in the same spirit we were the day after 9/11. We weren't liberals, conservatives, or any other labels: WE WERE AMERICANS!! More recently a lot of us felt alone in our belief that our country is on the wrong path. The truth is WE SURROUND THEM!! Who is THEM? They are the politicians, media, Hollywood, academic elite, etc. who don't care about God, patriotism, individual freedom, and the US Constitution.
