To: Congress as an Institutional Body December 23, 2009
I am an American Patriot, I fervently believe in the Declaration of Independence, The United States Constitution, Our Bill of Rights of which the first ten Amendments were added to protect the Citizens of this great country from an intrusive, and oppressive Government. I am a frequent reader of the Federalist Papers. Given the aforementioned preface it is understandable that I take the dictates of the founding documents seriously.
I am educated, I can read, Comprehend, form rational conclusions, and effectively articulate those conclusions. Having stated that, I am trying to draw a parallel between what the Constitution states, what I see going on in the Congress today, and there is no congruity between the two. The members of Congress seem to never have read the Constitution, or just blatantly ignore its dictates if they have read it, and just freelance to achieve their political agenda. These are irresponsible, and unethical character flaws that are unacceptable to the people who elected them to office as their representatives.
It is incomprehensible to me how a bill that is over 2,000 pages long, written in the vernacular of legalese can be read, and fully comprehended by all that have a responsibility to do just that (read it) , but do not, and yet vote on it. If no one, (or very few people) has actually read the Bill, then who wrote it? I have an idea that these bills are written by an entity external to the united States Congress. The way Congress is force feeding these power grabbing Bills down the throats of the American people, without understanding what is in them I believe is grossly irresponsible. Compounding this irresponsibility is the fact that you have unintended consequences incurred by making the Bill Law. What are those unintended consequences, huh?
As previously stated in the opening paragraph, I take these founding documents very serious, I expect my Representative and my Senators to do the same. I am going to quote (in-part) the Declaration of Independence, I want you to do a deep, soul searching look into your performance and see how you measure up;
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed with by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and instate new Government, laying it's foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, a to them seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness…………….."
These are powerful words, and should be heeded, and not to be taken lightly. Are those meaningless words to you?
The next exercise for you, is to do some more soul searching in regards to the Oath of Office you took on the day you were sworn in with your hand on the Holy Bible. Have you lived up to that Oath, especially the part that you "Shall be bound by oath or affirmation to support this Constitution," ? Here is an example of what I mean. During Speaker Pelosi's push to get the House version of the Health Care Reform pushed through by whatever means was necessary, a news reporter was heard to say "Madam Speaker, where in the Constitution does it say that you can mandate Health Care for Every American? The Speaker replied with these three little words, "Are you serious?" So you see what we the American people are up against………..and we do not like it!
Quite frankly I believe that you have all forgotten the very things I have written about here. Honor, truth , ethics, and responsibility to your constituents and your Oath of Office. These character traits are rarely found in the members of the three branches of Government. Corruption, Fascism, tyranny are rife in this Government. You have lost the trust of your constituents, they have become cynical, and tired of deals made behind closed doors, passing legislation in the dark of night, and deals that squander our financial resources with special deals to favor certain members of your elitist fraternity. When you are using tax payer dollars to bribe a Senator or Congressman to get their vote, rational thinking people see this as criminal, and this has happened just very recently with three Senators, and you know who I mean. We are tired of being told what is best for us, and that you know better. I think that you had better wake up and smell the roses, get back to the Constitution, and stop spending money we don't have.
If you continue down the path that this President is taking this country, without standing up for America and its people, and continue to ignore the issues I have written about in this letter, I can only surmise that you are following the agenda of a Marxist President, whom we know very little about, and is implementing the Marx Dialectic Lens too our American way of life, as well as Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals . I can only surmise that you are in agreement with this Marxist President take over of our America, and you will be stopped.
Your actions since this new administration has taken over has undoubtably awakened a sleeping giant, and a paradigm shift is happening at this very moment. You will all pay for your actions
at the ballot box. A Progressiveness/Statist government will not stand in the good old USA!
Pay attention,

Scolding Harry Reid
Senator Reid, December 19th 2009
You freaking' Commie, how dare you subject the citizens of these United States to this hideous B.S. Health Care Reform Bill, that is nothing more than a ploy to gain power over the citizens of our country, it is not about health care at all. We have been screaming at you to leave us to hell alone and just GET OUT OF OUR LIVES! I am convinced that Washington DC has the largest collection of morons per capita in the world. Yes, the majority of them are in Congress.
It is totally irresponsible to keep your insidious bill hidden away, not letting it be read, excluding GOP Senators from providing any input, and then expect responsible Senators to vote to pass it (thanks to arm twisting and knee cap busting Chicago style thuggery, and political blackmail), and not even having a chance to explore the Bill itself, and the unintended Consequences.
I just discovered that you have shut down your e-mail, whats the matter can't you stand the heat?

Obamacare Promises are a Huge Prevarication
Based on the Report from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMMS) the Nancy Pelosi version of Obamacare eviscerates almost every single promise the President has made about his health care plan. According to the report Obamacare, raises health care costs; causes millions of Americans to lose their current health care coverage; forces millions of Americans to pay fines and still receive no health insurance; causes millions of seniors to lose their Medicare Advantage plans: places millions of Americans on welfare; jeopardizes Medicare access for all seniors; worsens healh care for the poor.
On December the 11th the CMMS issued another report, this was directed at Senator Harry Reid's version (based on what was known of his version). In many ways it was much worse: Health care costs would rise by $243B; 17 million Americans would be forced out of their existing health insurance plans; 19 million Americans would pay $29B in taxes and fines and receive no health care in return; 33% of all Medicare Advantage customers would lose their heal care plans; 18 million Americans would be put on welfare;The $493B in Medicare cuts would force 20% of Medicare providers to become unprofitable thus jeopardizing access to all seniors;The explosion in Medicaid recipients would seriously exacerbate existing health care access problems for the poor.This information may be found at: morningbell@heritage.org
The CMMS is a non-partisan, and they conduct independent analysis of pending legislation. So you see my Friends, We the people are getting a royal screwing by the inmates of the asylum, economic rape so to speak. The vast majority of these people in office should not be supported on the grounds of moral turpitude. I am sure the vox populi will exercise their right to vote next November, I feel confident that there will be a huge turn over in Congress because of their votes on Health Care Reform, Cap and Trade and all of the other intrusive, and oppressive actions this President and his radical left administration are forcing on us. God is with us and we shall prevail.

In Defiance of Sen. Reid's HCR Bill
This was sent to Senator,Snowe, Lincoln, and Nelson on the eve of the day Senator Nelson caved and gave the radical left their 60th vote to pass Reid's Bill to totally screw the American citizens.
SenatorSnowe-----,
I am a citizen, and a national Constituent, and am very interested in key issues that affect the lives of virtually every American. The current issue that is crucial to each and every American, is Health Care Reform. I vehemently oppose those in Leadership positions that are mandating National Health Care Reform. I urge you to vote no on the bills that are currently be being pushed by this President and his extreme left wing radical administration. I have read Speaker Pelosi's bill, and was appalled at the degree of control over the individual in the text of that onerous piece of legislation, Death Panels, Health care rationing, based on age, and cost of treating senior citizens, access to financial accounts, on and on and on. At this very moment, how many Senators have actually read Senator Reid's Health Care Reform Bill? As I understand it, very few. Senator Reidis twisting arms , busting knee caps, and resorting to extreme measures to get a bill passed that NO ONE HAS READ! That Senator, is unconscionable! In the case of Senators Nelson, and Lieberman it sounds as though Chicago style thuggery, and political black mail are being used to bring them back into the party line. Anyone that votes for a bill they have not read does not deserve the respect of the constituency, nor be a United States Senator. The truth of the matter is, a Senator, (or Representative for that matter) that does the right thing will gain the respect of their constituents. The Democratic Leadership is now so desperate they have not followed Senate Rules relative to the reading of, and the withdrawal of Senator Sanders Amendment. Unbelievable! Has anyone bothered to look into the unintended consequences of passing a bill that has not been read by the people voting for it.

Mr. President
President of the United States of America December 17th 2009
Barack Hussein Obama
1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW
Washington, DC 20500
Mr. President,
First and foremost I have the utmost respect for the Office Of the President of the United States, however,
I am deeply disturbed with your leadership, or rather the lack thereof, and the direction you are taking our country. Mr. President, does this sound familiar? "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States." You repeated that Oath with your hand no the Holy Bible. It is evident that you have cast aside the Oath as if it were nothing more than meaningless words, and an inconvenient, but necessary step on the path to becoming President of these United States. Does the Oath of Office have any significance in your world? I think the answer to that questions is an emphatic NO!
You have introduced Fascism into our government by a hostile take over by our government of publicly held corporations e.g. taking over General Motors, Chrysler et al, and firing CEOs, capping executives pay and compensation, You have allowed the Government to in effect take control of the Banking Industry and the Insurance industries as well.
You are insistent on Government mandated Health Care Reform, that requires every American shall be forced into this power grabbing, total population control, Government Insurance plan. There is no Constitutional authority to mandate this legislation, it denies the individual the freedom of choice, whatever that choice may be. The Global warming scare is proving to be a huge scam. Your Cap and Trade agenda is an undeserved hardship on the American people. The Executive Branch and its arm twisting tactics in the Legislative, and Judicial Branches, smacks of tyranny.
I have read that you are eager to sign the CIFTA Treaty which if you sign, and get a 2/3 Senate vote in favor, and ratify the Treaty, your actions will have abrogated our Second Amendment rights, and taken a huge step in destroying the sovereignty of the United States. Likewise your Secretary of State is pushing to implement the United Nations global gun ban.
As you well know ARTICLE 2 Section 2, Clause 2, states (of the President) "He shall have the power by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to MAKE Treaties, provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur;………….. this clause states MAKE treaties, being a signatory to international treaties that will severely damage our countries sovereignty is not the same as MAKING a treaty! I am certain the Founding Fathers in writing this clause had no intention of our government agreeing to foreign or international treaties that would usurp the power of the United States Constitution. You and your party leadership in the United States Congress are making a mockery of the very things this country stands for.
It has been a year now since you were elected to the Office that you now hold. I, as well as millions of Americans are wondering when you are you going to honor your Oath of Office. So far you have demonstrated no desire to take the Oath seriously. Congress is just as negligent as you are in their nonchalant attitudes toward their Oath of Office. You have done nothing to "preserve, protect, and defend" the Constitution, quite the contrary, your agenda is destroying our sovereignty, and ultimately our country. The Marx/Hegel Dialectic lens is in place as well as Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals", both fit nicely into your agenda, and plan for America. We the American people are not standing still for this. The United States Constitution is the foundation this country was built on. It was not the government that built this nation it was the people. Your assertion that "the Constitution is a document of negative rights" would be the view of an individual that has no clue about America.
Your initiatives are progressive in nature and are intended to do harm to our Country. I have lost count of your Czars', which by the way is an effective means of circumventing the checks and balances of the Legislative and Judicial, branches of government, and is by the way unconstitutional. I resent the term "CZAR" being used in any context that is connected to the United States government. Any rational thinking individual who knows the definition of "Czar" would surely agree.
Your selection and appointment of your economic and financial leadership people demonstrates a total lack of knowledge of free market economics (and we are a free market, Capitalist country, and will remains so). We have a Secretary of the Treasury that is either dishonest, or not very smart, after all he doesn't know how to use Turbo Tax. It is common knowledge that Keynesian economics does not work in a free market environment. You cannot borrow and spend your way to prosperity……………….it just does not work. Let me quote Franklin Roosevelt's Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau (from his Private Diary) "We have tried Spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work………we have never made good on our promises……….after eight years of this administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started… and enormous debt to boot". There may be something to heed in that quote.
My advice to you Sir is, if you want to stimulate the economy let the people keep more of their money, reduce taxes, create an environment that is conducive to entrepreneurs to start new businesses. Here is a simple but proven fact, Macro-Economics 101-Give a man a dollar, and he will want to spend it, this in turn creates a demand for goods or services, someone will meet that demand by starting a business, he will hire employees, and they will become tax payers, hence revenue for the government coffers. Now if the man decides to keep the dollar and save it……………….it then becomes venture capital for some entrepreneur.
Mr. President, we do not want a Statist/Progressive country. Unfortunately all of your initiatives ,Health Care Reform, Cap and Trade, hostile takeover by the Federal Government of publicly held entities i.e. automobile industry, banking and insurance industries, are all unconstitutional. When was the last time that you looked at Article 1, Section 8, Clauses' 1-18 the enumerated powers that specifically state what the Federal Government is authorized to do?
When did you last read the Bill of Rights? Specifically, Amendments 1, 2, 4, 9, 10, and 14 ?
Finally………STOP SPENDING MONEY WE DO NOT HAVE!
GET THE HELL OUT OF OUR LIVES! (No more Nanny State)
NO MORE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE LEGISLATION!
GET BACK TO THE DICTATES OF THE CONSTITUTION!
RESTORE OUR BILL OF RIGHTS!
SACK THE CZARs!
God is always present and will prevail

The Stimulus Money and Transparency
Well, the Obama transparency in reference to how our stimulus dollars are being wisely spent, and accounted for just recently came to light and being made public via "Recovery.com". According to this site nearly $6.4B were used to "create or save" approximately 30,000 jobs at a cost of approximatley $225,000 per job, which is an insane amount of money just to create one job. That is not the worst of it, these 30,000 jobs were created/saved in 440 "Phantom Congressional Districts". Now doesn't this mean that that we would have created 440 new Representatives for the House of Representatives? These would be in addition to the 435 Representatives that are now serving. Is this $6.4B just an immensely large Gerrymandering effort on the Obama Administration's intentions to insure their continued control of government, or is it just me being overly cynical and not trusting the government to manage our financial resources in a more responsible manner? The facts (as reported) are $6.4B of Stimulus dollars have disappeared into the realm of 440 non-existent Congressional Districts, and has "created or saved" 30,000 non-existent jobs. I think Obama and his genius whiz kids owe the American people a huge no nonsense explanation on how this happened, and just where does this $6.4B now reside? Does this reek of ACORN, or SEIU duplicity? Finally there should be plenty of prison orange coveralls made available for those responsible for this level of corruption.
God Bless America, We will prevail!
