Straitsland Resorter newspaper Article 4-28-2010 on the upcoming Indian River Tea Party
Tea Party rally in Indian River
on this Saturday, May 1
by L. Scott Swanson, Editor

Indian River Michigan
Under the banner "Tax & Spend Must End" there will be a Tea Party
rally this Saturday, May 1 in Indian River.
Tea Party rallies have drawn thousands of people throughout the
nation. According to a flyer promoting the Indian River Tea Party
rally the movement is founded on four basic principles:
Constitutional Law, Limited Government, Individual Freedoms and Free Markets.
The Indian River Tea Party rally will begin at 4 p.m. at the Bowen's
Corner parking lot at the corner of Straits Highway and East M-68. It
is being organized by Indian River people and the Petoskey Tea Party
group.
Rich Carlson, Petoskey Tea Party President, said the Tea Party and
the Indian River rally are about "limited government, the role of
government, natural rights and Constitutional issues."
Carlson said the gathering is nonpartisan. While there is a school
election on Tuesday, May 4, Carlson said Saturday's event isn't about
any particular stance on that other than to encourage people to
become educated and involved in that election and any other election.
Saturday's rally will begin with a prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance
and singing of the National Anthem. Chad Stevens from the Northern
Michigan Liberty Alliance will speak about the Second Amendment.
Randy Bishop, candidate for the State Senate, will talk about the
Michigan Fair Tax. Congressional Candidate Tom Stillings will talk
about Constitutional issues related to the Second, Ninth and Tenth
Amendments. Greg Marshall of WMKT radio will serve as Master of
Ceremonies and will speak about free speech and the responsibilities
of voting and being an involved citizen.
Carlson said the Tea Party movement encourages people to become
informed and involved in the political process. He said it's a
movement that attracts some Democrats, some Republicans and this
"huge mass in the middle."
The Indian River rally is an area wide event and all interested
citizens are welcome to attend. There's no charge. People can just
show up. If they want to they can bring canned food, which will be
donated to an area food bank. They can also bring signs, family and
friends and a chair if they want to sit while listening to the speakers.

My Name is Tom Stillings. I am a candidate for U.S. Congress from the First District of Michigan. Like most of my fellow citizens I have found it easy to sit back, and let others determine the policies of our nation. As long as America was being run like America there was no need to disturb my happy life.
Those days of complacency have passed. I see America being changed in very disturbing fashion. I see the overthrow of dearly held American values. I see disdain for that which is traditionally American.
Our leaders have lost sight of the values and principles that made America the greatest society on Earth. In their rush to false Utopia they would topple the very foundation upon which this nation stands.
From the foolish expenditure of money that we don’t have, that even our grandchildren will be unable to repay, to the travesty of abortion, to the denial and deceitful re-definition of our basic liberties including our fundamental rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of our own happiness, I have had enough. I am offering my candidacy in the hope that others who believe as I do will allow me the privilege of speaking for them.
I believe in the sanctity of human life, and that the rights of the unborn must be protected.
I believe in our form of government, which is a constitutionally limited republic. The federal government must confine itself to those functions delegated to it under the constitution.
I believe in our constitution as originally conceived and amended, including the 2nd, 9th, and 10th amendments which so many seem to have either forgotten or would ignore.
I believe that national defense is the most important responsibility of the federal government. It is the one area where spending is imperative. Without a strong defense all else is lost.
I believe that we must control spending so that we may eventually pay down our debt.
As to the more pressing issues of the day:
Our health care delivery system can best be improved by taking steps that reduce actual costs. A government takeover will result in less care at greater cost. We need a real solution based on American values and the preservation of what I believe to be the best health care in the world.
I am in favor of immigration. It is anything illegal, as in “illegal immigration” that I totally oppose.
TARP, Bailouts, and deficit spending are landmarks along the road to financial demise. We must learn to spend only what we have available, and then only when necessary. “All of the above” is never a valid choice in the selection of government spending priorities.
If you believe as I do, please honor me with your support in this endeavor. I faithfully promise that your voice will be heard, and that I will do all that is possible to put our nation back on its proper course.
Thank you.
Tom Stillings
