On Thursday, October 28, the New Jersey Tea Party Coalition received word that fraudulent advertisements (Google Ads) have been appearing on the internet connecting the NJTPC to Peter DeStefano. Mr. DeStefano has no connection to the NJTPC, nor does he have a connection to any legitimate Tea Party in the State.
In New Jersey’s Third Congressional District, Congressman John Adler (D) is in a tight race with challenger Jon Runyan (R). Peter DeStefano is a third party challenger claiming to be the Tea Party Candidate.
According to press accounts, Congressman John Adler’s campaign manager Geoff Mackler directed the collection of signatures to get DeStefano on the ballot as a third-party spoiler.
A poll sponsored by Richard Stockton College’s Hughes Public Policy Center puts Jon Runyan and John Adler in a statistical dead heat. We can only conclude that this attempt to link Peter DeStefano to the NJTPC is an attempt to legitimize his candidacy in the minds of conservative voters and to draw votes from John Runyan’s campaign.
At this point, we have filed complaints with Google in regards to at least 6 different ad links. The NJ Tea Party denounces these advertisements as well as the actions of the DeStefano and Adler campaigns and is seeking the person or group that has placed these ads. We believe this action was not only corrupt and immoral, but illegal as well.
We would ask anyone with knowledge of who placed these fraudulent ads to contact us through our website: http://www.njteapartycoalition.org

Dear Conservative Editorialist,
by John Anthony
To those conservative editorialists and strategists who grab the Moet every time Mr. Obama drops one point in popularity: will you please cork the bottle until after the election?
To those who proclaim the biggest sweeping victory in 30 years, will you kindly look to the present, at least until November 2nd?
Your premature buoyancy spins our opponent's lethargy into energy. Your endless presumptions of yet un-won seats morphs our oppressors into underdogs and provides raw meat for the Obama grinder.
Congressional representatives are already deciding how they will negotiate with the President when we have not even had an election. Thank you for providing our sleeping enemy with a wakening cause.
We can sizably win this election. However, you are making the jobs for us on the ground ever so much tougher.
If you do not stop, the only November 'tsunami' will be the flood of tears as you reach for the Budweiser on Wednesday morning.

We're All Community Organizers Now
by Laura Greer
State House Reps on speed dial. Email boxes filled to the brim with messages about Tea Party events and projects. Congressional contact info locked and loaded into Blackberry address book. A middle-aged mind struggles to remember new acronyms like GOTV (Get Out The Vote, thank you very much).
My summer beach reading morphs from Mary Higgins Clark’s latest mystery to the “5000 Year Leap.”
How did this happen?
There was a time – not so long ago – when American politics was a modern spectator sport.
We tuned in every two or four years to select what the Irish call, “The best of a bad lot.” Those of us who cared enough to vote did our best to gather information about the candidates and trudged to the polls –– voted - and hoped for the best.
This exercise in civil life was fairly simple. The pattern was established and there was comfort in knowing we fulfilled our civic duty. Life as we knew it marched on.
Candidates and elections came and went and not much ever seemed to change.
Or so we thought.
Under the cover of darkness, while we were quietly going about our lives, a cadre of radical activists executed their plan to overthrow the United States Government.
You can call them communists, progressives, Marxists or liberals.
I call them traitors.
These aging hippies are disciples of Mao, Marx, Stalin and Alinksy. They despise all that is good about America and its people. Their contempt for everyday Americans, our freedoms and the Constitution is palatable.
They are the same cast of characters who wreaked havoc in the 1960’s, when they incited riots, killed police officers and did their level best to topple the free market system.
We thought they went away. Instead, they went legit.
It took this fringe, radical group 40 years – but they achieved the ultimate prize – control of the US Presidency and both houses of Congress in 2008.
With break-neck speed under the cover of contrived emergencies, they are in the process of fundamentally transforming America – from a Representative Republic to a Social State. Our free market system, social compact, liberty and freedoms are dissolving before our eyes.
Is this the kind of change you believe in?
For the love of God, Country and the US Constitution, join us in the fight to restore America.
Put down your remote and pick up a protest sign.
Write letters to the editor.
Gather in your houses of worship and pray for God’s forgiveness and intervention.
Find a candidate who believes in small government, who will work tirelessly to overturn the bailouts and Obamacare – and contribute to their campaign.
Attend the local school board and freeholder meetings. Demand to get a copy of your town/city budget.
Call out judge’s for decisions that disregard the Constitution.
Fax, phone and visit your representatives (term loosely used) to protest latest assaults on our freedoms.
Email your friends and family – share information and widen your sphere of influence.
Educate yourself – read the Constitution, learn about our Founding Fathers, do your own homework. Subscribe to conservative publications – or read them for free online. The state-run media is corrupt – so it’s up to each of us discern truth from propaganda.
Join groups of like-minded citizens who are in the fight to roll back this radical agenda. If you can’t find a group, start one of your own.
Travel to lower Manhattan to protest the Mosque at Ground Zero September 11, or take th
e bus to DC on August 28 and September 12 to support the cause of freedom.
Leave your comfort zone. Join the action – time to get some skin in the game.
For the love of God, Country and US Constitution – join the fight for freedom.
Make no mistake - we are all community organizers now.

NJTPC Research Bulletin No 1
Beware of Misinformation Regarding the UN "Small Arms Ban"
- produced by the NJ Tea Party Coalition Research Committee
Lately, emails have been circulating regarding the Obama administration's support of international treaties regarding arms bans, such as the so-called UN "small arms ban". In particular, one email cited an alleged Reuters announcement to the effect that the State Department, under Hilary Clinton, had reversed longstanding policy and said last week that it woul d back launching talks on a treaty to regulate arms sales. The concern is that this announcement in effect represents the Obama administration's "first major step in a plan to ban all firearms in the United States". Another rumor claims that Hilary Clinton has already signed such a treaty.
Now, every American who has thought about the matter understands that the Obama administration indeed manifests the hard liberal/left view that the right to bear arms should be restricted to the state and to a self-appointed elite; not surprisingly, self-appointed elites such as Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Chavez, and Daley all had or have the same view. If given a chance, the left would indeed eviscerate the Second Amendment. It is no coincidence that sales of firearms and ammunition skyrocketed after Obama's election, and probably would have had Hilary Clinton become president.
That being said, there is no evidence that any international arms ban is at all imminent. The NRA, which does a good job of tracking legislative or political threats to the Second Amendment has this to say about the email rumors:
Contrary to a widely circulated e-mail, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has not signed any UN small arms treaty. She could not have done so, in fact, because no such treaty has yet been negotiated.
As we noted in the item below from last November , the UN Arms Trade Treaty will be drafted between now and 2012, and even if signed would not take effect in the U.S. until it was ratified by the Senate.
Please rest assured that, as we said in November, NRA will be actively involved in this process and will oppose any treaty that would attempt to impose limits on our Second Amendment rights. In the meantime, we urge gun owners to follow this issue in NRA's magazines and NRA-ILA's Grassroots Alerts. We also urge gun owners not to circulate misinformation on this issue.
Web link for more is here: http://www..nraila.org/Legislation/Read.aspx?ID=5843
We must note that he NRA makes ample use of the Obama and Clinton position on firearms in their fund-raising efforts, with the unfortunate result that hysteria can easily be stirred up. it is also true that gun owners are very aware of the issue, and remain rightfully concerned.
While there is every reason to remain vigilant on this subject, there is no immediate apparent reason to let it distract us from more urgent matters.

The Committee to Recall Senator Robert Menendez Will Finally Have Their Day in Court
The day many of us have been waiting for, Friday, February 26th, has been postponed to Tuesday, March 2nd due to inclement weather. Dan Silberstein and Richard Luzzi, attorneys representing the Recall Committee, will be appearing in Mercer County’s Hughes Justice Complex in Trenton at 10:30 AM. They will be joined by Peter Ferrara, the Attorney for the American Civil Rights Union, who has filed an amicus brief in defense of the Committee’s civil rights.
Since this is a matter of great concern to the citizens of New Jersey and has recently received media attention, we are anticipating that many of our supporters and opposing protesters are planning to demonstrate outside of the courthouse. We respectfully ask those intending to go to Trenton on our behalf , behave in a manner that respects the court and the system – the same system of law we are working so hard to preserve. While those who oppose our intitiative may seek to disturb the peace, we believe our citizens are protectors of the peace and therefore should act accordingly. To all wishing to attend, please dress conservatively, and if you plan on carrying signs, we ask that they be handmade and not controversial. We are sure that the media will also be attending and will be looking to capitalize on any behavior that can be interpreted as radical in any way, shape or form.
Thanks to all who have been supportive of this initiative and we are counting on your cooperation. Without it, we will not succeed and the consequences for our country can be dire.
