NO MORE WASTEFUL SPENDING - NO MORE 'CON-JOBS'

STOP THE SPENDING! TELL THE SENATE NO DEALS! AND PRODUCE A SENATE BUDGET FOR DEBATE, OR YOU'LL GET NO DEBT CEILING VOTE AT ALL!
  • Under Obama, Federal government spending has increased 21.4%
  • Under Obama, Federal government DEBT has increased $3.5 TRILLION
  • Under Obama, welfare spending has increased 54%
  • Under Obama, we are BACK to Jimmy Carter's STAGFLATION/MISERY INDEX – REAL unemployment rates are stuck at over 16%, REAL inflation rates at over 5% and rising

Yet, Boehner and the House Republican Establishment still want to "fool the voters" (you and me) and are said to have a "deal" with Obama and Harry Reid cooking behind the scenes. The political theater is staged that a victorious NO ceiling raise vote goes through the House THIS WEEK to make us happy and to shut us up. Then once that is on the record (going nowhere in actual policy because the fix is in with the big spenders in the Senate) once again Boehner and crew will surrender all our hard-fought gains in the House and among the American people – including most of the promised $3.5 trillion in supposedly REAL spending cuts and the long-promised DEFUNDING of ObamaCare and Planned Parenthood!
That's right! This sham deal smacks of appeasement and business as usual. What is coming has been roundly denounced by stalwart Reps. Louie Gohmert, Michele Bachmann, Steve King, Thad McCotter and many other strong Conservatives not afraid to call out Boehner for continuing to foist a pig in a poke on We the People. YOU need to make sure the SENATE and BOEHNER and his GOP majority HEAR FROM YOU about what REALLY MATTERS in Congress – does America need more political theater and sham deals, or REAL fiscal responsibility and deficit reduction?
The Democrats are evading all responsibility in the budget battles, and the GOP is letting them get away with it. Why should the Republican House be fighting on the defensive? For over 2 years, more than 750 days of "leadership" in the Senate and the Oval Office, the Harry Reid Senate has utterly failed to produce any budget proposal, plan, blueprint, anything. They continue to stonewall, throwing rocks at the Republican House Conservatives and colluding behind the scenes with GOP leadership to keep as much "business as usual" going while America's economic integrity crumbles around them. Do they think Obama's delusional White House budget will give them cover to save them?
Obama's laughable budget was publicly presented and sank like the Titanic. With $1.6 TRILLION in new taxes, and even setting aside 2009 (for which Presidents Bush and Obama share responsibility for an additional $2.6 trillion in public debt), President Obama's budget would add $4.9 trillion in public debt from the beginning of 2010 through 2016. Obama has zero credibility on fiscal matters and everyone rational in the nation knows it. As a senator in 2006, Obama voted against boosting the debt limit to grind the Republicans, complete with highfalutin excuses for doing so. That partisan vote, plus the fact that the national debt has soared in his two-plus years in the White House deprives him of any moral standing today on the issue. Moreover, in 2011, deficit spending will add $1.6 trillion to the national debt, which already exceeds $14 trillion – up from $10.6 trillionwhen Obama took office. That undercuts any claims he may wish to make on economic competency.
Both Boehner and Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell have said publicly Obama must agree to "trillions" in spending cuts before they'll support a debt limit increase. Obama in his budget speech last month proposed $2 trillion in cuts over 12 years. Cuts from what? His OWN $5 TRILLION INCREASE! His proposal was hence deliberately duplicitous and not serious, but now Republicans can certainly demand he agree not only to REAL, specific cuts of that size, but to reductions and spending caps and entitlement reforms that happen in time to prevent economic collapse – trillions that are REAL and not just accounting smoke and mirrors.
Reviewing the Obama budget proposals, even the New York Times admits, "The Budget confirms that Mr. Obama is not taking the lead in embracing the kind of far-reaching deficit-reduction plan recommended in December by a bipartisan majority of his own fiscal commission."
/Barack Obama and his Socialist-Democrat cronies are still on a cynical spending spree to ruin America. They could have passed a 2011 budget when they had complete control of both houses of Congress. They didn't need one single Republican vote to do so, but they deliberately chose to avoid the responsibility and accountability of presenting a budget, because their spending was laden with pork that they knew the American people would furiously reject.
As much as Boehner and the GOP Establishment want to keep the Federal government running full tilt, YOUR faxes and calls are working! Boehner is captive to the Washington culture of deal-making and irresponsible deficit spending BUT he also knows that he CANNOT BE SEEN AS A BIG IRRESPONSIBLE SPENDER. Boehner knows that it must APPEAR the spending spree is OVER and compromise is OFF THE TABLE, or he is out of a job and the Republicans are looking at votes of NO CONFIDENCE by those who put them in office!
/But sham deals are just business as usual and will ruin us. GOP leadership needs to confront reality. Boehner said of the 2011 bad budget deal, "The House will not be put in a box and forced to choose between two options that are bad for the country" – woefully inadequate spending cuts or a Federal government shutdown. DON'T LET HIM OFFER SHAM VOTES, BACKROOM DEALS, and inadequate, fake cuts trying to look like a deficit hawk, playing fool the voter but doing the same old big-spending deals.
The debt numbers are DEVASTATING, yet Boehner is willing to work only with the options Reid and Obama offer. How about telling the American People the truth, and Harry Reid to man-up and produce a Democrat Budget? This means we must force the GOP Establishment to stand and fight! NO DEBT CEILING VOTE UNTIL THE DEMOCRATS PRODUCE THEIR OWN BUDGET THEY HAVE TO DEFEND! NO PLANNED PARENTHOOD AND OBAMACARE FUNDING IS ON THE TABLE – PERIOD!
Otherwise, the hemorrhaging persists apace, until our nation fiscally bleeds to death. Otherwise, Democrats WILL CONTINUE to fund ObamaCare … and abortion … and NPR … and Planned Parenthood … and Cowboy Poetry Festivals. The Republicans MUST stand strong against this deranged fecklessness and they need to hear from YOU! Every Member of Congress needs to know that if he ignores the Will of the People and continues spending our country into oblivion, he WILL LOSE HIS JOB.
A recent Government Accountability Office (GAO) report identifies 34 areas of redundant or duplicate Federal programs operating across agencies and bureaucracies that need to be cut, and 47 other areas where $200 Billion could easily be saved.
CONGRESS HAS NOT MADE THESE CUTS BECAUSE DEMOCRATS AND RINOS WANT TO CONTINUE POLITICAL BUSINESS AS USUAL – IMPERILING AMERICA'S FUTURE!
/Democrats in Congress are fear mongering with false threats of "credit default" without a debt ceiling raise; outright lies about changes to Social Security and Medicare that are NOT in the Ryan budget, the Republican Study Committee or the Heritage Foundation solvency budget plans that deserve consideration by the American people; and naked Communistic class warfare, hoping for angry backlash by affected groups that will blame economic dislocation on fiscal Conservatives, Constitutionalists, the Tea Party and Republicans in Congress. Democrats, as usual, are putting raw and dangerous partisan politics ahead of the financial solvency, and possibly the very survival, of the nation.
But ALL of Congress, Republicans AND Democrats have for years been childishly kicking the can of debt and deficit spending down the road. That child's game can is now a bomb that if not defused will implode our nation's very foundations. Putting off paying the piper until tomorrow does not alter the fact that the piper MUST be paid. And the longer we wait, the more costly in every way his bill will be. Congress MUST stop deferring the hard decisions to their successors and hopelessly burdening future generations. They instead MUST address Washington's deadly compulsive spending habits head on. THE DEBT CEILING MUST NOT BE RAISED and THE PROFLIGATE SPENDING MUST STOP NOW! Not in 2021 as the Ryan GOP budget proposes, not in 2040 as the Democrats propose, but NOW in 2011 while America can still be saved from the mountain of cumulative debt poised to crush us. This day of reckoning is upon us, and We the People must not shirk its obligations. The Congress serves us – let us make it so.
Keep Faith,
PS: Speaker Boehner has succumbed to the deal-making culture of Washington that dictates that a deal, any deal is preferable to expending political capital and upholding principle. He, the House and the Senate work for YOU – I implore you to remind them TODAY!
