Blogging RightOnline, Changes coming to KCC

Hello Readers,

You may have noticed that your blogger has taken the summer off.  That's right.  After an early season visit to Chattanooga for her cousin's wedding, which conflicted with the NC GOP convention, she has been living at the beach all summer. Emerald Isle is her second home and the politics in Carteret County are fun.  It's probably the "reddest" county in North Carolina.

Next weekend, however, she will return to blogging at the RightOnline Convention in Las Vegas!  

RightOnline is the right's answer to the left's NetRoot's Convention.  Put together by the Americans for Prosperity, the RightOnline conference follows NetRoots around the nation each year, to stop the spread of their liberal message.  Americans have had enough of it and want to hear something fresh.  In short, they want to hear the good news, rather  that that "hopey changey stuff", of the left that Sarah Palin so aptly described.

While the left will have depressing speakers such as union leaders (ugh), Harry Reid, and Joan McCarter of the Daily Kos, RightOnline features such inspiring speakers as:

Judge Andrew Napolitano, Fox News

 Congressman Mike Pence

 Congresswoman Michele Bachmann

 Herman Cain, Nationally Syndicated Radio Host

 Erick Erickson, RedState.com 

 Stephen Moore, Wall Street Journal

 John Fund, Wall Street Journal

 Ed Morrissey, HotAir.com

 Guy Benson, Radio Host

 Stephen Kruiser, Fox News Contributor

 Phil Kerpen, AFP Foundation

Just reading this list is enough to make a right-wing mother-to-be go into labor! 

(Note: Your blogger is not in that delicate condition, but the list does excite her!)

Hope to see lots of North Carolineans there, but if you can't make it, KCC will cover it for you.  With this long list of speakers, it won't be easy to keep up with and your blogger prays that they stream it on UStream.  If so, she'll run it on KCC.  It's not too late to make your reservations, and we hope to see you there.

Additionally, this will be our next-to-last post here on Typepad.  It's been a good platform for these long years, but Katy's Conservative Corner has long needed a change and WordPress will provide more features and flexibility and benefits.  We may get started with a barebones look, but it will develop in time.

Our next post will be the final one, letting readers know that KatysConservativeCorner.com has moved, forever and ever.

Finally, our email address has changed.  It is no longer [email protected]  Everyone and their brother added us to their list, whether we wanted it or not.  So, when a keylogger struck your blogger's laptop, we shut down the account.  

God bless you all, and see you soon, over on WordPress.  

Lucky Elaine and Kid Cal

Are you tired of listening to the bickering between "Kid Cal" Cunningham and "Lucky Elaine" Marshall?

This writer is ready for them to both go away.  If her beloved summer weren't upon us, your blogger would say "let's just get November here and be done with it".  However, this blogger plans a nice summer at the beach and she doesn't want to miss that.

But she is ready for their runoff to pass us by, so that we can get down to the business of re-electing Senator Richard Burr.  He didn't start out as the most conservative Senator we could have possibly have, but he's made up for it these past four years.  He realized he didn't just represent the Winston-Salem area anymore, as he did while serving in Congress.  We conservatives from Eastern North Carolina have darn strong standards and if a politician is going to please us, he's got to make my "Jessecrat" neighbors happy.  Additionally, the Party is leaning more conservative now, statewide.

Out Of Nowhere - Lucky Elaine

The previously unknown Elaine Marshall took office in 1997 by defeating  NASCAR legend Richard Petty.  Petty looked unbeatable in the race but didn't as perform well on a North Carolina highway.  He forgot that one cannot bump the car in front if one feels its not proceeding to his liking.  The incident went viral, put him the slow lane and right out of the race.  She's held the office ever since.

Now, Marshall wants to be your Senator.  The thought of her standing side-by-side with Kay Hagan simply sickens this blogger.  

Kid Cal

But what is worse is the idea of the youthful, charismatic kid Cal, taking the seat formerly held by Senator Jesse Helms. Cal is young, and liberal.  Extremely liberal.  The term Chapel Hill liberal even comes to mind.  He got his start on the UNC Student Council and local UNC grads in the conservative movement do not remember him fondly.  He got in the race and quit when he didn't get the backing of national Democrats.  Then, he got back in, when those 'crats came back around.  But, it wasn't enough to beat Lucky Elaine so off to the runoff they go.

Please get out and work for U.S. Senator Richard Burr.  We need a big turnaround in Congress and making things right at home, is the first step.

Important: Update on Tea Party Crashers

Fox News is reporting that the tea party crashers will try to look just like the actual tea party people on Thursday and try to make them look bad.  That's right, the anti-tea party people have gone viral, as they are frightened for their cause and at the attention, the Tea Parties have brought to itself.

Many in the  Tea Party Movement, plan on bringing signs that point out "fake" tea partiers.

In Washington, your blogger received a death threat by calling a fake tea partier a "Communist". (The Communist Party USA was meeting that same day and was trying to blend in with the Tea Party people.  They were the same ones who spread the lies about Rep. John Lewis being spat upon and being called the "N" word.  Your blogger was right there and this indeed was a lie!)  

Your blogger's free speech was infringed upon.  Don't let it happen to you.

No kidding folks.  If that same person had called me a conservative, I'd have bowed and said "thank you".  But she ran away, and her husband threatened to kill me, but quickly backed off when he realized that he was surrounded by many tough, former military service members who could have taken him apart with his bare hands.  He quickly disappeared into the crowds.

It's getting crazy folks.  Be careful.  Depend on the local police and don't try to take the law into your own hands.  It is simply not worth it!

This is an update on an earlier post today.

Tea Parties Crashers

Just like any movement, when it's successful, there will be detractors.  In this case, they love to call the Tea Party people the word Tea Bag***.   We won't print it because it's a disgusting sexual reference that does not belong here.  

To learn what the opposition is up to, check out  click on Crash the Tea Party.  They say they are a network of Democrats, Republicans and Independents who are tired of Racists, "Homophobes", and Morons, yet they make really disgusting comments about homosexuals in posts regarding Barney Frank  It leads this blogger to believe the actual "morons" are those running that site.

Please note:  Some of the content is not very nice and can be offensive to conservative gay people and non-sophomoric others.

Your blogger saw these people in action, personally, at her last Tea Party in Washington, when trying to salvage the Health Care Bill.  

These "bad guys"  try to catch people at tea parties doing something wrong, such as spitting, yelling racist names, etc.  They come armed with video cameras.  

Therefore, at the next Tea Party this Thursday,  this blogger, will come armed with hers.

Your blogger's four-year-old son is looking forward to his first rally this year, and asks his mommy each day, if "today is the day".  Let's just hope the crowds will keep the ugly words to a minimum for the young ones in attendance.  We are doing this for them.

Today, your blogger has added a new category to her list: Tea Parties.

It's Almost Tea Time

Thursday, April 15th is the dreaded tax day.  If you cannot make it to Washington for the big Tax Day Tea Party and rally, check out one of many such rallies across the Ole' North State.

The NC chapter of Americans for Prosperity has set up the website:  NC Tax Day Tea Party  It  has a listing of every Tea Party in North Carolina, and they urge you to make it out to one. 

Your blogger will be attending the rally at the North Carolina State Capitol since she cannot be in our nation's Capitol. 

If your Tax Day Tea Party isn't listed on the site, please contact the AFP  to add yours.

Liberals Infiltrate

Please note that the liberals are just waiting for our side to slip up and do something that they can make news with.  For example, they want us to use ugly language, spit on people, or some other dastardly deed, but as conservatives, we will not fall for their traps.

Like in Washington a few weeks back, they will try to infiltrate our rallies by "blending in".  However, to this blogger, they will stick out like sore thumbs.  They'll be the ones with the video cameras, and without American flags and signs, and their clothes will be bland, rather than red, white, and blue.  Watch for them and tread lightly.  Be polite yet ignore them.  That will frustrate them as they want us to get mad so they can get a "good video" for You Tube.

Have fun and let this blogger know what those liberals try to pull.  It's our protest day of the taxes THEY have put on us.
