Political academy founded to help hopefuls

When Lois Kaneshiki ran for county commissioner several years ago as a novice politician, it didn't work out for her.

She could have used the kind of conservative political advice that will be available soon from a new nonprofit organization created by two regional political operatives - Peg Luksik of Johnstown, who lost in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate, and Jason High of Duncansville, her campaign manager.

Their American Heritage Academy will target tea party types, who need practical political help.

<Snip>

Luksik plans to focus on principles derived from national history, she said. Those include the Founding Fathers' proposition that the rights we enjoy as citizens are "endowed" by a "creator."

Rest of sickening article here: http://www.altoonamirror.com/page/content.detail/id/540...


Lois Kaneshiki has her own show on the public access channel here. She once said that only people with enough cash to pay for their care should receive the care that they need. If you can't pay for the operation, too bad. Of course she is married to a surgeon and she has the money to get whatever care she would need.

The other two people who are starting this "academy" are RW tea gaggers also. Jason High ran PA State Senator John Eichelberger's campaign and also was his Chief of Staff. Eichelberger you might recall once made the remark that "Homosexuals should be allowed to exist". My, how christian of him.

Of course, all three of them are against healthcare reform or other entitlements that benefit ordinary Americans. That's Socialism don't you know.

Three sheep leading a too large for comfort flock in this area.

1. I hope spelling is the first class they take
Otherwise, it's pretty much a waste of time.

3. This area is Republican by a 2 to 1 margin.
Clear precise thought isn't needed to win over many of the local citizens.

As long as you say that Pres. Obama is Liberal and that we need to "take back our country in the name of Jesus", you've got a good chance of success and winning over converts.

This is a rather backward community in a lot of ways.
