"Memo to the Speaker of the House;
please don't begin to characterize me as an "enemy" because I am a peaceful, thinking, caring person with some some acute differences of opinion with you on the direction this administration is taking this country.
The policies, both domestic, international, and financial, with their attendant taxation, are not putting this country on a path toward recovery; they are doing precisely the opposite.
The costs of these wars without end, for which this administration seems to have such an insatiable appetite, will be our undoing as a nation.
The tax money that has been spent, and the money borrowed from countries like China to pursue these wars, has caused this country to be carry a massive deficit from which it may never recover.
Yes, many of us are legitimately angry. We understand that we are experiencing the new version of "taxation without representation." Oh yes, we have that kabuki-esque spectacle of elections every so often, but this has become totally irrelevant to the direction of American policy.
Those people called congressional representatives no longer represent the will of their constituents; they have become "acquisitions" of the large corporations which fund their campaigns, overtly and covertly. So that's who gets represented and whose needs get met; not the needs of We the People.
We have stopped being a representative government, and have become, instead, a cronyocracy or more accurately a corporate-ocracy.
And that consistent, dull, thumping sound, echoing all across the country is being caused by the founding fathers, turning over in their graves at warp speed." -- Wake the Flock Up

"Criticism of Obama concerns Pelosi
The top House Democrat, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, said yesterday that she is concerned because some of the heated rhetoric against President Obama’s health care effort reminds her of the violent debate over gay rights in her native San Francisco in the 1970s.
“This kind of rhetoric was very frightening’’ and created a climate in which violence took place, she said....
Then START LISTENING TO US, you botox-infected beeeaaaach!!!
Representative John Boehner of Ohio, the top Republican in the House, said:
“The outrage that we see in America has nothing to do with race. It has everything to do with the policies that he is promoting.’’
Boehner cited disenchantment with the “trillion-dollar stimulus bill’’ because of continuing job losses, “trillion-dollar deficits for as far as the eye can see,’’ the cap-and-trade climate bill that he asserted would raise the average family’s energy costs, and well-founded fears of a government takeover of health care.
DO NOT FORGET the NEVER-ENDING WARS, John!
“I do believe we’re in the middle of a modern-day political rebellion,’’ he said. “The American people are saying enough is enough. . . . They’re scared to death that the country that they grew up in is not going to be the country that their kids and grandkids get to grow up in.’’
Can't you HEAR US, Congress?!!!!!!
