THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN

In many of the news reports by the national media this morning, one important message was easily overlooked about the failed vote in Congress on Monday, September 29. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN, AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVES ARE FINALLY LISTENING TO THEM. Although this is a crucial election year and many Representatives are up for re-election or in a close race for new opportunities, the Congressional Representatives are finally listening to the VOICE OF THE PEOPLE...THEIR OWN CONSTITUENCY.

Why should American taxpayers bail out financial marketers who have lost the confidence of the public that they serve? Why should a 700 billion windfall be given for poor advice and greedy aspirations by the very American market that has helped so many over the years? Imagine a 1 TRILLION DOLLAR PRICE TAG for the mistakes of misinformed and misguided financiers who extended a heavy financial burden on those individuals who really did not qualify for such a enormous credit extension. The American Taxpayers have had enough. Yes, Change is coming in more ways than one. Whatever happened to trust that we as Americans once had in a system of government that ensured effective representation at all levels of government. To lose confidence in the government means a shift and a positive change to those leaders and diplomats who know how to get the job done with Yankee ingenuity.

Yes, the American People have spoken and they will also speak volumes on November 4 for all issues on Election Day. Beware of the wrath of the patient person, of the constituency who can see through the myths, the duplicity, the deception, the Washington Spin, and the half-truths promulgated by politicians who really know how to milk the cow beyond its capacity to give. The time has come to take back America with the power of the VOTE and the power of the communications network that really works...GRASSROOTS...The media has lost sight of the power of the GRASSROOTS..the SILENT MAJORITY...who really have America first in its efforts to turn around a neglected populace.

With Congress having a lower rating than the President of the United States, the time has come to CLEAN THE HOUSE of the vultures, the ignorant, the greedy, the un-patriotic symbols of naive thinking, and the many other negative aspects of a worn-out Congress. The time has come for limitations to the number of terms that the Senate and the House of Representatives may serve before losing interest in the American Public. One suggestion is to limit the terms of the Senate to two terms: 12 years; and the other suggestion is to limit the terms of the House of Representatives to 6 terms: 12 years. The next suggestion is to have a waiting period of four (4) years before entering the race again for Senate or Representative. In addition, Congress should be required to pay Social Security Taxes just like any other citizen in the United States, and to reduce all types of benefit packaging that smacks of discriminatory favors. No wonder our Congress acts the way they do about Social Security Benefits when they could care less about the outcomes of the poor, the underemployed, the less fortunate.

AMERICA, STAND UP AND BE COUNTED AND EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE AND YOUR RIGHT TO BE HEARD AND LISTENED TO...WITHOUT ANY REPRISALS. IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY YOUR FREEDOMS, VOTE ON NOVEMBER 4, 2008. YOUR VOTE ALWAYS COUNTS...YOUR VERY LIFE MAY DEPEND ON IT.
Read the Democratic and the Republican 2008 Platforms adopted by each Party and become aware of the consequences of each item in the Platforms. Remember to VOTE your CONSCIENCE...not your emotional highs and lows based on the looks and the political rhetoric expressed in negative ads and media slants voiced by the candidates. READ THROUGH THE LINES...If anything sounds too good to be true, the lesson may be that what you hear is TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!
