We listened . . .
You asked us to become educated, so we got educated.
We studied the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Crossing, and the Gettysburg Address . . .
We studied each one, and our appreciation grew with passion and intensity.
You asked us to march, and we marched. We travelled by tour busses, night trains, airplanes and carpools. We came to Washington for the 'surge' on Capitol Hill to voice our opposition to the government-takeover of our healthcare. We visited 31 congressional offices in one day. We left our jobs, our families, our responsibilities and went to Washington, so that you would hear our voices . . . "the republic for which it stands . . ."
Yes, you had awakened the sleeping giant; and we became soldiers to the cause of our freedom. We volunteered for 2010 candidates who were advocates of constitutionally-limited government. We licked stamps, we made phone calls, we attended rallies, and we held signs at 6 am in the freezing cold to encourage a vote for a conservative candidate who would return our country to the values our forefathers intended.
Yes, we had grown complacent and unaware . . . BUT WE ARE COMPLACENT AND UNAWARE NO LONGER.
We are on the move, like soldiers, our mission is clear. Our battle cry is freedom; our quest is to be heard.
NOW IT IS YOUR TURN TO LISTEN . . .
Our government spends with no accountability. The Post Office is $8.5 billion in debt, Amtrak is $2½ billion in debt, and Pell Grants are in the largest shortfall of Pell Grant history since the federal government took it over. We are spending millions every month for Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), and Housing and Urban Development (HUD) without benefit for the housing market . . . and the list goes on and on.
PLEASE--for your children and grandchildrens' sake – pick up the phone and call your senator. Tell him or her you do not want any more backroom-deals, no new taxes and no more spending without a balanced budget amendment . . .
WE WERE PROMISED A MORE TRANSPARENT GOVERNMENT, televised hearings, no more earmarks, NO more debt! ! !
Well, now hear us . . . this is not about being democrat or republican . . . this is about our countries best interest!
