Tea Party

I couldn't get out to any of the Tea Parties today but I was with them in spirit. I also sent some emails to some of the Representatives telling them I support the ideas behind the Tea Parties and I wasn't happy with what I was seeing from our Government, I would be watching and I would be vocal about my opinions. I intend to keep sending those messages to them (even the ones from other states). I would encourage everyone to send them your thoughts and I ask for responses here.

The 912 Project

I have been spending more time posting on "The 912 Project" lately than I have here. The reason being that I think it's important. As of today there are over 425,000 members all with the purpose of making the Politicians listen to The People and uphold The Constitution.

Bob Basso

It seems that President Obama has called Bob Basso to the White House. Mr Basso is the guy who dressed up as Thomas Paine and put the video up on YouTube "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeYscnFpEyA" I suspect Obama is upset because the guy makes so much sense. Bet he tries to make him stop.

Rush Limbaugh

I can't believe the stunt they are trying to pull on Rush. I watched his interview with Hannity and heard what he actually said. It was not what the media is trying to portray. I truly believe it's an attempt to take the focus off the economic problems and put the focus on the Republicans. I say don't fall for it, keep your eye on what the Democrats are doing. Obama spent in about 5 weeks more than had been spent since the country was founded to when he was sworn in. I for one believe that the Government should spend the way the rest of us have to.
On another note, I watched Mike Huckabee over the weekend and he suggested term limits for Congress which I agree with. His statement was 8 years then they could go home and stand in the lines they created for the rest of us.

Economy

I have been watching and what I've noticed is so far every time President Obama talks about the Stimulus or the BailOuts the stock market drops. That tells me that maybe it isn't a real good idea to be spending all this money.
The idea should be job creation and that is done by making it viable for companies to do business. Lower taxes would be a good start. As far as the Auto companies go: Limit the Union involvement unless and until they have as much invested and stand to lose or survive the same as the workers. That way they will work for the good of everyone.

So called stimulus package

Seems that the people didn't have much say in the so called stimulus package. I only know first hand about my state. I called my Senators and Congressman for my district and the numbers were over 85% against it. I can only assume that was the result in most states.
I'm afraid of what the end result of that bill might be. For that reason I want to encourage everyone to keep after their Representatives, let them know how you want them to vote and hold them accountable. The problem with the Folks in Washington is they seem to lose interest in what the people want once they get elected and the only weapon we have is our vote so I say use it. It will take some time but I realize now that if we don't take a stand and vote for people who will do the will of the people we will keep getting sold down the river. I hope enough people are as tired of politics as usual as I am. We do hold their fate in our hands, it's time the people used it.
