Stop the Spending Now

I have to question the intelligence of getting involved in Lybia with so much financial problem looming over our heads at home. We are 14 trillion dollars in debt and we have already spent half a billion dollars enforcing a no fly zone. What happens if Qadhafi stays in power? What will we do then? The intention was to protect innocent civilians from being used as human shields and be slaughtered for no reason. These acts did not just begin. Why have we not paid attention before?

We have a budget crisis that is requiring our congress to make ways to keep the government open for a few more months at a time. The American people should be asking these questions in front of every television camera they can find. We need to tell our lawmakers enough is enough. We need to get very angry and let them know that we will make sure that a replacement is found in the next election for every member that does not begin making headlines with the enormous changes they are offering. Congress needs to know that we are no longer a citizenry that will idly sit by and continue to watch this country being torn down by their greed.

Now has come the time to put reality back in the minds of our elected officials. We must let them know that we will exercise our constitutional rights to install a new leadership that will work by, for and of the people. If you do not understand this then educate yourself. I promise the more you learn about the present level of governmental waste the angrier you will become. Just like a person, a government that remains in debt will become a government without power. It will find itself having to rely on others, and worse, having to settle for what it can get. We have always been the country to run to the aide of others. We have liberated many countries with the blood of our brave young men and we have never asked for more in return than enough land to bury our dead. I assure you we will not find the same support from anyone. We have to save the most wonderful country there has ever been before it is too late.

Call or write your representatives from the bottom up. Ask them what they are sacrificing for the budget. Ask them what they have done and plan to do to rescue this nation. Do your part to open their eyes. Let them know we are watching and listening. Let them no the free ride is over. It’s time for them to work for us as we have worked for them.
