It's time for Citizens to reclaim America

To All 535 voting members of the Congress: When you vote for legislation without reading or understanding it you demonstrate an incompetence that is unacceptable. When you tolerate and follow leadership that tells you to vote for legislation so you can find out what is in it after you vote; you violate the public trust. Let’s face it, the Congressional record on managing the public resources is not good:


     The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775. You have had 235 years to get it right and it is broke.

     Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 75 years to get it right and it is broke.

     Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 72 years to get it right and it is broke.

     War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 46 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.

     Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 45 years to get it right and they are broke.

     Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 40 years to get it right and it is broke.

     The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 direct employees (plus 100,000 contract employees) with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 33 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.

     The Department of Education was created in 1979. You have had 31 years to get it right but education in America gets worse every year.

You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars

AND NOW YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM?

IT'S NOT ABOUT THE NEED FOR GOOD HEALTH CARE, IT'S ABOUT TRUSTING THE GOVERNMENT TO RUN IT.

T-shirt on a Senior Citizen:  “Jam it down our throat in 2009…We’ll stick it up your (butt) in 2010”

The above message came with the suggestion that every incumbent be turned out of office in 2010; but I’m against a wholesale turnout of incumbents for a number of reasons.

First, it is a mindless action that doesn’t consider facts and is driven only by emotion: that’s what Liberals do so I’m not going to do it.

Second, it tells elected representatives (including potential representatives) that no matter that they do good or evil, they will suffer the same fate.

Third, we need to retain (and elect) only those who love and honor the Constitution and who are willing to restore the COTUS by repealing the un-Constitutional laws passed over the past 80 years.

Fourth, we need to identify those who have used public office to enrich themselves and hold them criminally responsible: for those found guilty they need to be impeached, removed from office, excluded from ever holding public office again, and then be tried in criminal court to imprison them and in civil court to recover their ill-gotten gains.

There is no avoiding the fact that according to the COTUS, there is no entity as a “political mandate” or a “social mandate”; there is no authority for anyone in the federal government to “fundamentally transform the USA”. We elect a federal government only to exercise their Constitutionally-delineated responsibilities, within their Constitutionally- defined limitations; and to ‘preserve, protect, and defend the COTUS’: only that and nothing more.

The COTUS established a government that did not interfere with the imagination, innovation, ingenuity, dedication or achievement of sovereign citizens, enabling them to create the greatest, most inclusive, most generous, most productive, most innovative, and most compassionate society in the history of man. Government intrusion over the past 150 years has cumulatively expanded to the point that it now threatens the survival of that remarkable experiment in self-rule.

Americans now find themselves in the grasp of an administration hell-bent on destroying all that made America great in an effort to enslave sovereign citizens under the oppressive thumb of tyrannical government. This cannot be allowed to happen.

It is the responsibility of citizens to force the federal government, created for their convenience, to comply with the clearly delineated responsibilities and authorities defined by the COTUS. To restore American greatness; restore the COTUS.  Now is the time we must act!
