GO BIG or GO HOME!

I have always been an optimist . . .

A registered independent, I sat back and believed in the democratic process of the 2008 election . . .

I believed Candidate Obama when he promised he would . . .

·      Bring TRANSPARENCY to the Executive Office and return BI-PARTISANSHIP to Congress . . .

·      Put a STOP to “politics as usual" in our Capitol.

·      PREVENT ‘middle of the night' earmarks.

·      BRING OPEN DISCUSSION to Universal Healthcare.

·      Insist NO BILL BE PASSED unless posted on the Internet for 72- hours.

·      Make sure America would no longer consist of 'blue states or red states’ but THE UNITED STATES . . .

·      SPEND 862 BILLION DOLLARS OF STIMULUS – dollar for dollar – responsibly, and “WE THE PEOPLE” could track stimulus dollars via a government website.

·      Administer shovel-ready dollars responsibly to states with VP Biden guaranteeing oversight.

·      Ensure that THE UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE BILL would allow us to keep our own doctor and our own health plan.

·      Take over General Motors and sell 110,000 Chevy Volts – only 10,000 sold to date.

·      Establish a consistent energy policy that would make the United States “Energy-independent.”

·      Keep Americans safe . . . but on Sept 11^th 2012, four brave patriots in Ben Ghazi, North Africa, found that not to be true.

So much for the inspiring rhetoric . . . What transpired with the passage of the Universal Healthcare Bill was a prelude of what was to come . . . month after month, we watched television coverage of two large doors, bridled on each side by security - while 'the inner sanctum' of Democrats ONLY - crafted a healthcare bill that would contradict EVERY PROMISE MADE BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

The proposed Bill was:

·      2,300 pages long

·      Never debated on C-SPAN

·      Never posted for 72 hours for open discussion

·      Never passed by a bi-partisan congress (passed with 50 votes in the Senate, not 60)

·      Never written to reduce our costs and premiums – Universal Healthcare will introduce 18 new taxes when fully implemented in 2014.

·      Never written to let us keep our own doctor or present health plan. Our healthcare will be determined by a 15-member board of bureaucrats – the I.P.A.B., (Intermediary Patient Advisory Board)

Nancy Pelosi was correct . . . "we had to pass the Universal Healthcare Bill to find out what was in it!"

Enough is enough – we’re tired of all the lies.

Mitt, on Monday, October 22^nd, 2012 – take it to the President:

As they say in the military: ‘Go BIG or Go HOME!’

God help the United States of America
