Vote Taylor Today, Tuesday June 8th at your normal polling place!

As you and your family vote this coming Tuesday in our Republican Primary, please consider the words below. While the candidates compete for the nomination, the winner can look forward to a war that will most certainly be laden with personal attacks by the opposite party, rather than the issues that are bringing this nation down to its knees. Think about the person who you want to fight for you.

Did you ever imagine that politicians in Congress would take over 1/6th of the American economy with unconstitutional legislation that they do not understand, and completely against the will of the American people?

Did you ever think that Government would be talking about a panel of so-called experts deciding who could and who could not get life-saving medical treatments?

Did you ever imagine an America where we would prosecute our military heroes, while at the same time trying to bring terrorists to American soil to give them the same rights as you or I?

Did you ever imagine that we would have a president that would stand shoulder to shoulder with approval beside the Mexican President in our Capital as he scolded one of our states and our Congress?

Did you ever imagine that in America, an unelected Government official could arbitrarily cut executive pay in a private business 50, 70, or 90 percent?

Did you ever imagine that a Federal agency would be giving school children political propaganda to bring them on the side of the president?

Did you ever think that we would have an executive branch that was more concerned about Israel’s settlement building, than its survival?

After thinking about those issues, think about the person who would fight the hardest to ensure that we are doing the right thing.

Will this person you select have the courage to stand up to the administration, the party, and special interests?

Will they have the gumption, and the energy to be part of the solution, and ensure we put our country back on the right path?

As I walk the streets of this district, people of all walks of life are scared. People in this country do not believe they will pass on a better life to their children.

I will stand up to Washington. I will fight for the American people. I will not waiver.

Send me to fight for you. Vote Taylor June 8th.

Having listened to Amazing Grace on the bagpipes too many times at memorial services for fallen brothers in recent years, this holiday has a profound meaning to me. As I thought about what to write, two stories and one word filled my mind. The word, “sacrifice”.
The First story: I just received word that a friend of mine was injured in an accident in Iraq and burned. This friend is a former Peruvian special forces soldier, whom I trained deep in the jungles along the Amazon. He came to America for opportunity and the hope that he might have a better life for his family and self. He joined the US Army to serve and protect the freedoms of his new home.
We must always honor those who have served and who selflessly sacrifice much to ensure our beautiful gifts of freedom, hope, and the promise that is America.
The Second story: I recently had dinner with a dear friend who I have spent lots of time with, especially when we served in the SEAL teams together. He had just returned from Afghanistan, escorting the remains of a fallen brother of ours. I cherished these brief moments with him, as I knew he would return to the battlefield a few days later. He was deeply saddened and visibly different. I have reflected on that night with my brother many times.
We must stand with and be there for our brave men and women now and when they return from war. They and their families endure untold sacrifice as we sleep peacefully at night.
As you celebrate this Memorial Day, be sure to show gratitude to those who serve, veterans, and their families who sacrifice for a cause greater than themselves.
Never forget, that freedom is not free.

God Bless America,
Scott Taylor

Dr. Rand Paul soundly beat the establishment backed candidate in Kentucky last night. His opponent had almost all of the party endorsements locally and in Congress. The recent defeat of Senator Bennett all the way down to the local defeat of a council-man in Norfolk show a clear message from across the country: Americans are tired of the same old establishment officials running the show. People are ready for new ideas, servant leaders, and Constitutional values.

Americans are soundly rejecting the status quo. People realize the trouble we are in as a nation; we are facing an economic crisis, two wars, and a Congress ready to spend our future generations into oblivion. We must have men and women with backbone in Washington to move this country forward. As I walk the streets of this district, I hear a similar response from our neighbors.
Today we have a pre-primary contribution deadline, donate today! We have three weeks left in this campaign, I challenge you to get involved. Whether you help us phone-bank, knock on doors or make a financial contribution, every little bit helps. We continue to build momentum everyday.

If we continue to elect cookie cutter politicians, then we will continue to get cookie cutter results.
God Bless You and God Bless America,
Scott Taylor

Scott Rigell, running as the favorite of the GOP establishment in the Republican primary in Virginia’s 2nd Congressional District, donated $1,000 to Barack Obama, according to opensecrets.com, a research group that tracks money in politics.

“Rigell was one of the highest Obama donors in the zip code,” Scott Taylor told HUMAN EVENTS. Taylor, a former Navy SEAL and local business owner, is also running in the Republican primary.

Taylor, whose campaign slogan is “Send a SEAL not a RINO,” said Rigell “didn’t even vote in the Republican primary, and then gave $1,000 to Barack Obama on March 10,” 2008.

“In November Republicans will aim at the Democrats, but for now their only expression is against the Republican establishment, and that’s who Rigell is,” said former Rep. Tom Davis (R.-Va.). “He gave money to Obama, he gave money to Mark Warner, and Louise Lucas, who is a Democrat state senator down there.”

On a local blog, Rigell responded by saying that, “The only alternative on the Democratic side was Senator Obama. Yes, I was moved by his rhetoric and by the prospect of seeing a minority rise to the highest office in our land. If we were to end up with a Democrat President I wanted that person to be Obama, not Clinton; I was not indifferent to the two possible outcomes.”

Rigell also supported the economic stimulus and through the Cash for Clunkers program received $444,500 from the U.S. taxpayers to benefit his automobile dealership. When asked about accepting the money, Rigell said, ” I had no ethical problem whatsoever.”

Across the country Republican voters, many led by the Tea Party movement, are letting Washington know that they are feed up with their GOP establishment candidates. Last week, 18-year Republican incumbent Sen. Bob Bennett from Utah lost his seat at a state convention when Tea Party favorite Mike Lee and a businessman named Tim Bridgewater won the right to duke it out in June 22 primary.

Taylor faces an up hill battle in raising money for the campaign. Rigell is topping his rivals in fundraising, although most of his money is coming from his own pocket.

“I believe you need people out there that are servant leaders, not the other way around, and who are not beholden to other folks. Rigell has endorsements that are based on his contributions to their campaign, it’s all status quo,” said Taylor.

Taylor has been endorsed by Rep. Dan Burton (R.-Ind), Rep. Duncan Hunter (R.-Calif.) and Rep. Trent Franks (R.-Ariz.), two mayors and a councilman within the district, and two Congressional Medal of Honor recipients.

Scott Taylor appeared several times on Fox News supporting the SEALs charged with failing to safeguard and abusing terrorist Iraqi detainee Ahmed Hashim Abed. All three SEALs have since been exonerated.

“I’m doing this for a servant leadership position, I don’t see it as a career position, I am adamantly opposed to what is going on in this nation, I want to get us back to path of prosperity,” Taylor said. “We need leaders up there that have backbone, who can fight against healthcare reform issues, but also address costs. We also need someone who understands that we are the finest fighting force and we are committed to winning as much as our troops are.”
