Georgia Constitution Party a Member of Peach TEA Party Coalition

Below is from a Georgia CP e-mail:

The Constitution Party of Georgia is a member of the Peach TEA Party, a coalition of organizations and individuals in Georgia who are committed to the defense of traditional and constitutional values. The Peach TEA Party web site has helpful articles on issues of the day.

The Peach TEA PAC is the political action arm of Peach TEA Party; the PAC is committed to helping you identify and support true Constitutional leaders here in Georgia. The Life and Liberty Tracker is provided for you by the PAC and provides a number of tools to help the local electorate make an informed decision regarding the candidates in a local race. The Tracker, by design, tracks where a candidate stands in relationship to FIVE important issues of our day:

  • Sanctity of Life – the right to life is inalienable. Without the paramount right of Personhood . . . all other rights are moot.
  • Family and Marriage – the health of the family is the bedrock of any civilization. Marriage is the most basic governmental jurisdiction. Candidates that have succeeded in governing their families qualify for higher office.
  • Fiscal Responsibility – a family doesn’t have the right to print money anytime it chooses . . . neither should the government. Where a candidate stands in relation to conservative fiscal restraints means that government will consume less of our GDP.
  • Constitutional Governance – is the extent, limit and nature of government as defined by a set of rules and principles embodied in our Constitution. “Thomas Jefferson believed in a “strict construction” of the Constitution . . . anything not given to the federal government in the Constitution would be given to the states and the people.”
  • Personal and Economic Liberty – the first ten amendments to our Constitution are known as the Bill of Rights. Freedom to worship as we please, freedom of speech, the right to bear arms and states rights are a sample of the rights guaranteed to “we the people”. Any erosion of these rights opens the way to oppressive government.

The Tracker’s primary function is to provide you information on your state legislative candidates once you sign in. Note that the PAC ratings for each candidate are not done using the CP-Ga’s process, and thus the Tracker’s approvals are not CP-Ga recommendations. However the Tracker’s information can be useful in evaluating your legislative candidates.

The Tracker also has information on PAC-approved state judicial candidates:

    NF, anyone can call themselves the TEA Party, so some groups are different than others.

    I thought the TEA party movement was totally focussed on economic and tax related issues. I guess I didn’t know about the stance on abortion and issues related to personal freedoms.
