Happy New Year
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, all! I hope this season finds you and your family safe, loved, and healthy. During the holidays, I really haven’t posted to the site, but rest assured I intend to keep StopLouBarletta.com very active in the coming days, weeks, and months. I believe, as I believed when I started this site, that this website serves as an important voice of opposition to Mayor Lou Barletta and his leadership. This is why I have remained, and will remain, very active and vocal in my opposition to his candidacy for higher office.
I would like to take a moment to wish Mayor Barletta and his family a happy holiday, as well. When blogging or talking about politics, it’s very easy to forget that there are people and families involved. And while I am adamantly opposed to Mr. Barletta serving in the United States Congress, I hold nothing against him as a person. In the heat of the moment, the distinction between the two can, and often does, get blurred. Mayor Barletta is a career politician and I’m sure has a thick skin and is well experienced in brushing off my criticisms of his leadership and political aspirations, if he is even aware of this blog at all. Regardless of how this election turns out, I wish nothing but the best for Mayor Barletta and his family. I just hope that the best doesn’t involve him being elected to higher office.
I’m also planning to participate in Project 52. For those that don’t know, Project 52 is a collection of bloggers, of all sorts, who have pledged to write at least one blog post per week, every week, in 2010. It’s free to join and if you have a blog, it might be worth checking out. The whole concept is to provide incentive and motivation to keep your blog updated and current, something many (most?) bloggers fail to do.
And while I’m at it, I’d also like to invite all of you to follow StopLouBarletta on Twitter (@StopLouBarletta) and on Facebook. I’ve also set up a YouTube channel, where I hope to post several StopLouBarletta related videos over the coming weeks and months. I’ve set all of this up because I sincerely want StopLouBarletta to be as interactive as possible. I also want it, obviously, to have the biggest reach as possible. Hopefully, with a strong presence across all of these platforms, both of those goals can be achieved.
So, as I said at the opening of this post, I hope all of you have a great holiday and a safe 2010. We’ll have lots of time to scream, yell, hurl insults and accusations, and do as much as possible to hurt feelings and grind the opposition into the dirt. However, for the next couple of hours at least, let’s just try to get along and enjoy our time of this spinning blue rock. See you next year, all!

All these ‘stop Lou Barletta’ communists, who don’t live in Hazelton and themselves no nothing about ‘fiscal responsibility” advocate open borders along our southern region….just let them all come in…..we’ll just print more money for them, put them on welfare, let their kids wind up in jail for drugs, killing, rapes, etc…our prisons are already bursting with illegal immigrant criminals.. further bankrupt the country and ferment revolution and killing in the street. You’re a great bunch of commies. You and the ‘big money’ behind you (you know who they are) want nothing more than the ruin of our Christian European heritage and culture, so that the rich commies at the top (all Jews) can control you idiots and make slaves of you. Thank God for people like Lou Barletta and 75% of the American public who support him. We are ‘on’ to you!
