545 vs. 300,000,000
EVERY CITIZEN NEEDS TO READ THIS AND THINK ABOUT WHAT
THIS JOURNALIST HAS SCRIPTED IN THIS MESSAGE.  READ IT AND THEN REALLY THINK ABOUT OUR CURRENT POLITICAL DEBACLE.

545 PEOPLE–By Charlie Reese

Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them..

Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the
Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

Have you ever wondered, if  all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have  inflation and high taxes?

You and I don’t propose a federal budget. The president does.

You and I don’t have the  Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations The House of  Representatives does.

You and I don’t write the tax code, Congress  does.

You and I don’t set fiscal policy, Congress does.

You  and I don’t control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve  Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one  president, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human  beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally,  and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague  this country.

I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve  Board because that problem was created by the  Congress.   In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty  to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central  bank.

I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a  sound reason. They have no legal authority.  They have no  ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a president to do one cotton-picking thing.   I don’t care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash.  The  politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what  the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator’s responsibility  to determine  how he votes.

Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault.    They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.

What  separates a politician from a normal human being is an  excessive amount of gall. No normal  human being would have the gall of a  Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating  deficits…. The president can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept  it.

The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of  Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes. Who is the speaker of the House?    Nancy Pelosi. She is  the leader of the majority party. She and  fellow House members, not the president, can approve any budget they want.  If the president vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if  they agree  to.

It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million can  not replace 545 people who stand convicted — by present facts — of  incompetence and irresponsibility.  I can’t think of a single domestic problem  that is not traceable directly to those 545 people.  When you fully  grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal  government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.

If the tax code is unfair, it’s because they want it unfair.

If the budget is in the red, it’s because they want it in  the red ..

If the Army & Marines are in  IRAQ , it’s because they want them in IRAQ

If they do not  receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available  to the people, it’s because they want it that way.

There are no  insoluble government problems.

Do not let these 545 people shift  the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can  abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to  regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can  take this power.   Above all, do not let them con you into  the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like “the  economy,” “inflation,” or “politics” that prevent them from doing  what they take an oath to do.

Those 545 people, and they  alone, are responsible.

They, and they alone, have the  power..

They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the  people who are their bosses.

Provided the voters have the  gumption to manage their own employees….

We should vote all of  them out of office and clean up their mess!

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his cigars,
Tax his beers,
If he cries
Tax his tears.

Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his ass.

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won’t be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He’s good and sore.
Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he’s laid…

Put these words
Upon his tomb,
Taxes drove me
to my doom…’

When he’s gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY? Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was the most prosperous in the world.  We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What in the hell happened? Can you spell ‘politicians?’

GO AHEAD – - – BE AN AMERICAN!!! Stand up for what you believe in, even if it is not popular.

Thank you,

Today we do not have it “as good as it use to be” the fact of the matter is that we have allowed our values to be striped away for the connivence of just about anything you can think of, now a days both parents have to work in order to pay for our ever-growing need for “things”. Now I have to admit a good part of those “things” are bills like the gas bill and the electric bill, but really how many cars do you need, how many of us Need the internet? How many of us Need all the cell phone with all the bells and whistles? How many of us really Need the gaming systems? And how many of us have more than one of all of these? Quite a few I would bet.

SO now that we are not able to parent our own children, either because of our total lack of responsibility or the fact that we have to work long hours for pay that is way higher than it should be because of the fact that everything cost a lot more than it is worth. We now have to rely on others Like television, video games, teachers, nanny’s, babysitters, and yes our Government.

Can you think of anyone of those I mentioned that are really a good idea? Do you really want any of the above to be the one parenting your children? Ok so you are now pissed at me because you are a teacher, right. Well you are a left winged Bleeding heart tree hugging liberal jack-ass that I do not want teaching my children anything anyway, so be pissed, I really don’t care. Moving on.

For some of you it is very convenient to have big brother raise your children from cradle to grave, hell some of you are those children that have been  raised  by our government, and I really think that is why you sit by and let Mommy or Daddy Congress, do as they please without question. Assuming yo u can read, since you are in-fact reading this try some books, or some historical documents.

Our so called Leader had to read a lot of books, yet still see fit to keep raping our countryman and woman with ever action they do while in office. So I ask you this? What do we do with Parents that are abusive to their children? Do we not prosecute them and imprison them? Then why do we not apply that here? WHY do we not call for accountability from our elected officials?

Think about it folks, are we really going to allow our government to decide who lives or dies, because the cost of the surgery might mean they will not get to go on another tax-payer paid junket. If you continue to let our government parent you and your children, sit silently by while they do as they please all the while striping away everything our ancestors worked and died for. Then you deserve everything you get. Stand up! Make your voice herd! Tell them we will not sit quite anymore, we are taking our country back. For all of you who have served in our military First I would like to thank you for your service! Second I would remind you it is your duty, remember the oath you took “I will defend the United States Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic” it is your duty to defend the United States Constitution. For those who have not served in our military, it is your duty too all who have served to keep you free, to do the same.

Fellow Patriots,

After millions of Americans made their voices clear in summer “tea parties” and town halls and again in last week’s elections – DEMOCRATS have decided the best response is to RAM GOVERNMENT-CONTROLLED HEALTH CARE DOWN OUR THROATS. And showing an extreme lack of courage they’ve done it just minutes ago – under cover of darkness, at almost midnight on a Saturday night – when no one is watching!

I’VE HAD IT.

And that’s all we’re going to take. WE WILL NOW MAKE OUR VOICES HEARD IN A WAY THEY WON’T FORGET. Please join with me and 6,000+ other FreedomTorch members to contribute to our 2010 FreedomTorch Revolution Fund which will begin in January of next year. If we all pull together we can raise several hundred thousand dollars to use in support of CONSTITUTIONALLY CONSERVATIVE candidates next year, and we can start throwing the bums out!

We will start replacing one-by-one the people who voted for this socialist monstrosity of a bill. And we will go on from there, replacing leftists and liberals with Constitutional Conservatives.

Please join my mailing list for this effort by CLICKING HERE: I will use that list to ORGANIZE the FreedomTorch Revolution.

WE WILL NOT LET THEM DESTROY AMERICA.

I can’t stand to see plastic-smile Nancy Pelosi proclaiming victory a single more time! LET’S STOP HER!

Please invite your conservative friends to join our revolution. The more people we have on board the more impact we’ll have next year.

Keep Standing Up and Speaking Out!

Now here is a guy who has a great Idea let get out there and support him.

House Resolution 615

Over the past few weeks, members of Congress and the American people have come to know the details of the Administration’s proposed health care plan. Call it whatever you like, I believe this proposal is nothing more than government-run health care. As a physician, I am amazed at the number of bureaucrats in this House who are quick to claim a government-run health care plan is the reform this country needs. In response to this, I have offered a resolution that will offer members of Congress an opportunity to put their money where their mouth is, and urge their colleagues who vote for legislation creating a government-run health care plan to lead by example and enroll themselves in the same public plan.

Under the current draft of the Democrat healthcare legislation, members of Congress are curiously exempt from the government-run health care option, keeping their existing health plans and services on Capitol Hill. If Members of Congress believe so strongly that government-run health care is the best solution for hard working American families, I think it only fitting that Americans see them lead the way. Public servants should always be accountable and responsible for what they are advocating.
Together we will work to ensure that any plan that is good enough for American families is good enough for every member of Congress.

Pass this around to everyone you know post it in all the political groups you are part of, let get this guy the support he needs to shut down the big machine. Write your Congressman and Senators tell them you want them to support this resolution.

Remember why we find someone who is willing to do what is right for the American people we have to support them.

Well are you sorry yet? Don’t Blame me I voted for an American, guess what dumb ass Ron Paul the cooc, the nut job, he was right now how stupid do you feel. There are bleeding heart candy ass liberals that are sorry that they vote for Obama, yea they are on board with OBAMA standing for One Big Ass Mistake America.

Wake up America!
