Bob Brownell spearheads County flood relief.



Republican Supervisor Robert Brownell (District 1) is currently President of the Neighborhood Finance Corp. The NFC is a public corporation that works. NFC is funding the buy-outs of 9 or 10 homes in Birdland with another million or so dollars in aid.

NFC creates a hassle free process for flood victims to obtain buy outs and aid. Unfortunately, the Democrat run state government and Democrat led Congress have not responded to the needs of Polk County’s flood victims.

As early as July 24 Robert was
leading the call for Congress to remain in session until Iowans obtained urgently needed flood relief. As we now know, Sen. Byrd recessed the Senate Appropriations Committee and led the Democrat parade away from Washington with flood relief left undone.

So, once again, local government has been betrayed by the partisan gridlock that the Democrat leadership’s pervasive partisanship produces. Fortunately, there are just enough Republicans in Polk County government to prevent the complete collapse that the Democrat gang gave the people of New Orleans.

Our raison d'ĂȘtre here at TRS

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.” John Stuart Mill

We at The Real Sporer believe that the crises of our generation is the preservation of a United States of America based on fundamental rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Oddly enough, our generation, that grew in the quiet and secure 50s, 60s and 70s and thought we could escape history now find ourselves at the cross roads of history. At a time when the prevailing media, academic and even now industrial elites find the easy road of paternalistic socialist totalitarianism more expedient to travel we are convinced that only preserving the more traditional America will better provide the well known blessings of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness to us and our posterity.

In the real world, the Republican freedom agenda is the only alternative to the thought police and rations commissar of the socialist nanny state. But the agenda that we share with the founding generation, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, will never again prevail if we don't fight our generation's battle to renew America's commitment to freedom with our socialist adversaries.

Our mission statement is therefore clear: provide the information and argument that leads to a Republican Renaissance and Republican governance.
