Mittens doesn’t care about the country, just about being President. His unlimited ambition, his progressivism disguised as conservatism, and his lack of ability to feel shame for doing evil things is arguably a bigger threat than an open enemy. On top of that, you’ll be asking us to bend over for him again 4 years later, for a total term of 8 years with no real reforms or changes. The idea that a “conservative” congress will be more effective with Mittens is silly. Even Rick Santorum back during the Bush years was saying how deficits were good for the country, since supposedly they made him weigh his votes more. The “conservatives” in congress even now won’t even defund ObozoCare or take the actions they have within their grasp. Meanwhile, Mittens and his buddies have already signaled that they favor tinkering with government to “make things better,” supposedly by virtue of not being Democrats. This includes healthcare and RomneyCare, which they eye as a replacement for ObozoCare. They also don’t even have a legitimate plan for the economy. All this is doing is maintaining mediocrity and making it Law.

Ultimately, though, whoever wins, the solution will not be political. It is a spiritual problem that must be addressed spiritually. Mittens and Obozo, two massive rats, are merely a symptom of our disease. I honestly consider it punishment from God to allow us to be represented by men who, honestly, represent us (the country as a whole) very well spiritually.

God told us CLEARLY:

2 Chronicles 7:14

If my people, which are called by my name, shall HUMBLE themselves, and PRAY, and SEEK MY FACE, and TURN FROM THERE WICKED WAYS; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and WILL HEAL THEIR LAND.

Instead, we are asked to vote with the political party that cheated and lied and for a man who is like Ahaz/Manasseh, who thought it was ok to kill innocent babies and took the things of God that was sacred (altar/tabernacle) and desecrate. Just like the people who want to take marriage and desecrate it by allowing homosexual marriage. Government did not give us marriage; God did. I am finishing a book on Ahaz, Hezekiah and Manasseh (Chronicles of the Kings) could not believe the parallels we are facing today.

Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.

Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?

You and I don't propose a federal budget. The President does.

You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does.

You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.

You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.

You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.

I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank.

I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a President to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.

Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.

What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits. The President can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.

The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes. Who is the speaker of the House? He is the leader of the majority party. He and fellow House members, not the President, can approve any budget they want. If the President vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to.

It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted — by present facts — of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.

If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.

If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.

If the Army & Marines are in a foreign country it's because they want them in a foreign country ...

If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.

There are no insoluble government problems.

Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power. Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like “the economy,” “inflation,” or “politics” that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.

Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible.

They, and they alone, have the power.

They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses.

Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees...

We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!
