Pat Yourselves On The Back America

I am so proud of the American people. For years we have raised our families, gone to work and paid our taxes expecting those that we put in office to take care of the business that we entrusted them with. Unfortunately most of those that we entrusted with our country’s business have cheated, lied and manipulated the office which they have held. But not any more! We the people have made a stand and we say “enough is enough”. We will not be put upon by our own government any longer. They work for us….not the other way around. This isn’t some third world country where people sit around waiting for someone to hand us a bowl of mush while we grovel in gratitude at their feet. This is the United States of America. Granted, there is a small faction of our society that does wait for Uncle Sam to take care of them. Some have a choice in the matter while some do not. We need to weed them out as best we can. But the vast majority of our citizens work hard for their money and they deserve to do with it what they choose. It is not the business of a group of pompous and arrogant representatives to tell Americans how they must live or how they must spend their money. That isn’t part of the deal. Perhaps they should stick to the most common duty of a congressman which is to act as a conduit between the federal government and the local authorities and residents of the areas they represent. What a novel idea, right?

This country did not become the great Nation that it is by sitting idly by waiting for someone to take care of us or something to happen. We may be a young Nation compared to most but we have definitely risen to the top of the list in the short amount of time that we have been here. The people of this nation are strong and driven to succeed. We stick together in a crisis but depend on ourselves to take care of business. That is what makes us so great. We can disagree with a neighbor one minute and help rebuild their home in the wake of a catastrophe the next. How awesome a people is that? We may not have been paying attention to what our own government has been up to for the last few decades, but we are certainly paying attention now. We will no longer sit quietly nor allow any individual entrusted with our country’s well being take advantage the privilege of serving such great people…..the American people. There are people watching each and every elected official in some form or fashion and we are getting the word out across the country. Our elected officials will either do what we the people ask them to do or they can go home. Cut and dry.



All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
Thomas Jefferson




Don’t let up….keep calling, faxing and emailing your Representatives. Let them know that you are watching.
