Sincerely....A concerned American


Dear All 535 voting members of the Legislator,

The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 - you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.

Social Security was established in 1935 - you have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.

Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - you have had 71 years to get it right; it is broke..

War on Poverty started in 1964 - you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor"; it hasn't worked.

Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 - you've had 44 years to get it right; they're broke

Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - you have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke

Trillions of dollars in the massive political payoff called the TARP bill of 2009 shows NO sign of working.

And finally to set a new record:

"Cash for Clunkers" was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took good dependable cars ( that were the best some people could afford ) replaced them with high priced ( people who couldn't afford to are now making payments ) mostly Japanese models so a good percentage of the profits, from the sales, went out of the country. And lastly, the American taxpayers are now going to be dinged with paying for yet 3 billion more dollars of our governments experiments to make our wallets even thinner.

So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record that proves that "services" you shove down our throats are failing faster and faster, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care system? 15% of our economy? Are you crazy?

Sincerely,

If you have not called your senators or written a letter to your representative the past month...call or write today! There is NOTHING more important than letting your VOICE heard and start opening your eyes to the political "world" around you!


Finally The White House Makes Me Smile~



Have you seen Mr. Robert Gibbs??? You don't need to wait for Saturday to see "Saturday Night Live"....He is his own show every time he gets behind the podium. Sometimes I laugh out loud watching him...

He says..."You need to contact the White House- Hello there????Mr.Gibbs -you represent the White House!"

There is NOT one question this man will answer..ever...any day of the week...any topic!

Good Grief!

"On My Soapbox"

soapbox

{a new theme feature}

On Sunday, my husband and I left church in a solemn mood...we were talking about the role of "church" in government. In our 'humble' opinion...there is no role "left"! The church has completely become silent all in the name of "feel good love " philosophy. Churches don't speak out on much anymore...

We have been reading that the American Revolution started and really "geared" up b/c the churches were speaking out so the people "acted" out what they heard from the pulpit...

To be completely honest, I am no activist and I really have no desire to be one. To be really honest, I would rather be talking to my girlfriend on the phone then calling my senators office {every week lately}...I would rather be "thrift and antique" shopping than going to rallies or protests.

However, like never before I have a heavy heart for our country and our children....our roots...our foundation....

Glenn Beck had a special on the "state" of our country. One thing that struck me the most is that he said "People need to start talking...talking together about what is going on." Start reading....reading about how this country began and WHY the forefathers did what they did b/c they knew this young country could self-destruct.

Driving home on Sunday...we decided to go downtown to a protest going on all over the country "Tea Parties"...it was jammed...packed! There were so many great signs and so many passionate people that love our country. People from all walks of life...incomes...professions....it was amazing.



It was refreshing~

I could go on and on but I want to know what you think....

How are you feeling about the our "country"? What direction do you see us heading towards?

Most important...have you thought about how YOU can get involved?


p.s. I also want to tell you about a new blog that has started...it is for conservative women...it is wonderful and mainly informative...important things to read! I urge all my readers to take the time and read this blog.....click here!


It this the line to buy the talking Elmo???

Why I vote:

1. Fashion- The sticker " I voted" is very fashionable and I coordinate my clothes to match that sticker.

2. So I can complain

3. Cancel out another vote...we all know someone who is voting opposite of us

4. Long lines-it's my only chance to get caught up on my "reading"....too bad there is not wireless internet service..I could blog...darn!

5. I get such a "rush" of energy...casting my vote! This is one thing we all do that no matter who you are...every vote is equal!

6. I want to celebrate July 4th!

7. I like to stand in line pretending I am waiting to buy a Wii or a talking Elmo.

8. To re-live my college days when I just filled in the circle hoping it was the right answer:)!

7. Okay..Okay...it's my right and responsibility! Hope you will join me in the lines!!!
