Jefferson County Pachyderms

ONE OF THE PENALTIES OF NOT PARTICIPATING IN POLITICS IS       THAT YOU WILL BE GOVERNED BY YOUR INFERIORS.

The Missouri Precinct Project (MOPP)      www.moprecinctproject.org

Their mission statement is “Restore Constitutional principles and conservative values by engaging conservatives in grassroots politics”

This group has some good reading and like the Pachyderms is engaged in educating  citizens about thier government.

Here are some quotes from their annual report on Federal Regulations.

“The annual outflow of over 3,500 final rules has meant that 81,883 rules have been issued since 1993.”

“127 laws were passed in calendar year 2012, whereas 3,708 rules were issued.”

“U.S. households “pay” $14,768 annually in regulatory hidden tax.”

“The estimated cost of regulation exceeds half the level of federal budget itself.”

“The 2012 Federal Register stands at 78,961 pages. Three of the four all-time high counts have occurred during the Obama administration. Federal Register pages devoted specifically to final rules stand at 24,690.”

“Of the 4,062 regulations now in the works 854 affect small businesses.”

“Finalized EPA regulations were up by 44 percent in Obama’s first term.”

Members of the Jefferson County Pachyderm Club recently attended the CPAC conference held in St. Charles. There were many conservative elected leaders there speaking and holding informational discussions about current conservative issues. If you did not make it plan on attending next year.

I had the pleasure of seeing previews of this new movie to be released in November. I cannot remember seeing a better Christmas movie since It’s a Wonderful Life and it was in black and white. Check local listings for release locally  or visit.
