Upcoming events

Here's a couple of upcoming events...

The Christian County Chapter of the Ozarks Property Rights Congress will meet Thursday, November 3 at 7 PM at Mt. Zion Baptist Church, 877 State Hwy JJ, Sparta (take Hwy 14 east through Ozark, turn north on JJ, church is about 3/4 mile on left). We meet in the fellowship hall unless the group is huge and we'll move to the sanctuary. This is not a church service, just a group of concerned citizens who have decided to DO something about our eroding personal freedom and big government encroachment on our property rights.

This month Doreen Hannes will be explaining Codex Alimentarius. If you've never heard of, this is directly from their official website:

"The Codex Alimentarius Commission was created in 1963 by FAO and WHO to develop food standards, guidelines and related texts such as codes of practice under the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. The main purposes of this Programme are protecting health of the consumers and ensuring fair trade practices in the food trade, and promoting coordination of all food standards work undertaken by international governmental and non-governmental organizations."

Guess where this originates? (I'll give you a hint...the key words are "Programme" and "non-governmental organizations.") If you said United Nations, ding ding ding, you are correct!! A gold star for you.

So what's the problem? Don't we need safe food? Of course we do, but they keep over-reaching! Forcing private citizens to adhere to the same standards for their personal food supplies encroaches on individual rights. If I want to raise a cow or goat and drink unpasteurized milk from it, why shouldn't I make that decision for myself? Or if I want to buy unpasteurized milk from an individual, knowing the risks, why shouldn't I? There are certainly no labels on pasteurized cows milk that say we use hormones to make our cows produce more milk and we have no idea what problems this may cause in the future or in children who get much of their daily caloric intake from milk! But I digress.

She will also talk about the "China Hub," a plan to open up trade between China and the Midwest, using St. Louis Lambert Airport as the "hub." As usual, the devil is in the details.

Doreen knows these subjects inside and out and I'm looking forward to hearing what she has to say.

So be there!! Questions? Email help@StopFarmerCDLs.Com or klanehall@gmail.com or call Bob Estep at 417 844 8406 or Mike Wasson 417 634 5679


The other event is somewhat political in nature...

"The 7th District Congressional Republican Committee, the Missouri Federated Republican Women and the Evangel College Republicans will present an ABC (About Basic Campaigning) grassroots custom workshop for candidates, campaign workers, grassroots activists or any Republican interested in learning the political process of a successful campaign."

This will be held Saturday, November 5, 2011 from 8 am to 5 pm at Evangel University, Trask Hall Room 101, 1111 N. Glenstone, Springfield, MO

It's $25 but free for students with a current school ID (not just Evangel students or even college students...political teens welcome!!) The fee includes lunch. Casual dress.

I will be there and I just e-mailed Mavis Busiek this morning and there are still a few seats left. If you're interested, e-mail her at mbusiek@aol.com or call her at 417 864 4333 or find them on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/Missouri7thDistrictCRC
