CALL/WRITE CONGRESS AND TELL GOP - 'STAND FIRM ON DEBT CEILING!'

Do you honestly believe that AFTER you give them the green-light to squander more of your hard-earned money, our elected officials are going to suddenly discover the virtues of frugality?

Let's face facts, our elected officials are behaving like the moron who maxes-out his credit cards and then has the idiotic audacity to ask all of his creditors to raise his credit limit so he can cash advance those same credit cards in order to make the monthly minimum payments without having to sacrifice his monthly beer-money allowance?


It's time to put a stop to this foolishness... here and now.  You've heard the reports.  The powers that be claim that the United States MUST raise its debt ceiling or default on its debt. But that simply isn't true... it's a load of bunk... it's a lie... a scare tactic that is being promoted by politicians (Republicans and Democrats alike) who are simply too addicted to spending your money.

Even Speaker of the House John Boehner, has gotten into the act: “Congress must approve taking on more debt, which currently is growing by more than $4 billion per day. If it doesn't approve raising the ceiling, then the U.S. will default on its loans and lose its standing as the globe's most reliable bet."

BALONEY... the United States DOES NOT lack the money to pay its current debt obligations... the problem is that the United States lacks the funds to pay its current debt obligations AND spend all of the money our elected officials WANT to squander on waste and pork.

And make no mistake, if we allow our elected officials to hoodwink us... if we allow them to raise the debt ceiling (even with a hollow and false promise that they'll cut spending in the immediate future), we'll send these tax-and-spend charlatans a clear message... they'll simply jump up and down with glee (behind closed doors) and yell in delight.... 'We fooled 'em again... they bought it... and we can keep spending their hard-earned money like there is no tomorrow... YIPPEE.'

Don't let them get away with it. This addiction to our hard-earned money must stop here and now. We must draw a line in the sand. We must teach these elected officials, once and for all, that, like the rest of us, they must live within their means... we must tell them that their will be no raising of the debt ceiling under ANY circumstances... PERIOD... END OF SENTENCE... and the time to send that message is right now.



Use the button below to send your urgent and personalized Blast Faxes to the Republican and Democratic Leadership of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives. Let them know, in no uncertain terms that you're not buying the claptrap that they are selling. Tell them that the American people know that there is no need, under any circumstances, to raise the debt ceiling. Tell them that in these trying economic times that average Americans have had to cut corners and that it is high time that they learned to do the same.

Tell them that the American people know that meeting our debt obligation only constitutes approximately 6.5% of the money the government is obligated to spend. Tell them that if they are truly serious about cutting wasteful and runaway spending, they should support Senator Pat Toomey's plan that would require the Treasury to make interest payments on our debt its first priority and that they can figure out how they wish to squander the remaining 93.5% AFTER our debt obligations are met.
