When I qualified to run for State House District 101 I knew if elected I would have to change the way I blog. People expect certain things of their elected officials and there’s only so many “smart-aleck” comments I can get away with before voters get upset. Since I won the July 20th primary I’ve come to understand there are other matters I must take into consideration. Next January I will be a Legislator, and part of the House Republican Caucus. While I’m accountable to the voters of my district, being part of a Legislative body requires I earn the trust of my colleagues and maintain a certain level of confidentiality.
For those in the House who don’t know me allow me to provide you a brief political biography.

In many places, it’s traditional to read the text of the Declaration of Independence on July 4th. I think that’s a wonderful tradition and in addition to reading it with my family, I’ve published the entire text below the fold. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Independence Day celebration.

I received a call last night informing me I had been endorsed by the 9.12 Project Action Network. The 9.12 Project encourages people, and especially political candidates, to pledge themselves to follow 9 Principles and 12 Values. These principles and values are principles and values that helped make America great. I was pleased to receive their endorsement and to attend a press conference they held today at the Capitol in Atlanta. The picture above shows me and a number of the other candidates the 9.12 Project is supporting.
Here is their pledge of support for my campaign.

I’m honored to have received the endorsement of Georgia Right To Life. Here’s a bit of today’s Political Notebook in the Gwinnett Daily Post.
Nods for the state House went to District 51’s Tom Rice, District 101 candidate Buzz Brockway, District 103 incumbent David Casas, Distric 104 candidate Timothy Swiney and Barrow’s District 108 Terry England.
In three local races, more than one candidate garnered the endorsement: Josh Clark or Wayne Hill for District 98, Steve Allen, Linda Carsten or BJ Pak for District 102, and Brett Harrell or Warren Auld for District 106.
Pro-life legislation is important, but perhaps even more important is encouraging our culture to respect life. As the Declaration of Independence says we…
…are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
We need to continue winning people over to the idea that every life has value – even the lives of the unborn. There is evidence that pro-life ideas are gaining in popularity, but much work remains.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
