YOU HAVE TWO YEARS TO LIVE Print E-mail Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler Friday, 09 November 2012
An Open Letter to the Incoming Republican House Members of the 113th Congress
Dear GOP House Members and Members-Elect -
Congratulations to you all for surviving the absurd calamity of November 6th. You need to know what's in store for you.
To put it bluntly, you have two years to live. Politically live as the House Majority, that is. You are going to be demonized and destroyed by the Chicago Gangsters who run the White House and the presstitutes of the CorruptMedia. Your chances of retaining your majority in 2014 are 0%.
The question is: what are you going to do with these two years? Realize that the political outcome will be the same no matter what you do. While many of you may individually survive and be reelected in 2014, collectively your majority will be gone and you'll all be just minority schmucks.
So if you plan to cringe, compromise, and cooperate with the gangsters just to be reelected as a minority schmuck, why not just quit now, resign and collect your pension - rather than continue a charade in order to keep your perks of power for a little while longer, and all that while you'll have to look into the mirror every morning and see a coward?
Why not, then, see someone of courage in that mirror instead? There is a power that only you - a majority of members of the House - have that neither the Senate, the President nor any of his agencies, nor even the Supreme Court has. If you choose to exercise it, you will be feared and respected, instead of being Obama's poodles.
But far more importantly, you will have done your patriotic duty to protect your country from the lethal damage Obama is poised to inflict upon it.
The power the House Majority uniquely has is the Other Golden Rule: He who has the gold, makes the rules. Article I Section 7 of the Constitution states it very clearly and without ambiguity: "All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives."
The President with his Executive Orders and multitude of agencies and departments, Harry Reid's Senate, the Supreme Court, no part of the vast US Federal Government has the Constitutional authority to spend a dime that you don't give them. You all, of course, know this. What is required of you now is to act on it.
The day after the Catastrophe of November 6, Harry Reid loudly proclaimed that the Federal Government will soon require the debt ceiling raised another $2.4 trillion - and that when the time comes to do so, "We'll raise it."
The question to ask Mr. Reid is: "What do you mean we,' kemosabe?" Harry and every other Senator has no say in the matter. If you, the House Majority do not vote to raise the debt ceiling, it is not raised, no matter what temper tantrums Harry or the President have or threats they make.
Right now, as you read this, your children and grandchildren - in fact, every single American under 18 - is saddled with over $216,000 of federal debt they will be expected to pay off. They can't, they won't, and it is immoral in the extreme to expect them to. Their debt has to be defaulted upon. The way to start is to refuse to raise the debt ceiling.
Just to be clear - when I say you have two years left to live politically, that's a best case scenario. Unless you roll over and become Obama's poodles, being a Republican Congressman will be the most dangerous job in America.
You will get death threats, so many you'll lose count, and there may well be actual attempts on your life. The CorruptMedia will oppo-research every hidden nook and cranny of your life to smear and expose whatever dirt they can find on you.
You must understand that America now has a government run by gangsters - by crooks, thieves, looters, and thugs who will be utterly ruthless in ruining you if you try to be in their way. Putin's Russia, Chavez's Venezuela, has come to America.
So if you don't have the courage to band together and stand up to them, quit now. They can't spend money you don't give them. They will do whatever it takes, legal or illegal, to force you to give it to them.
If you can't say No to raising the debt ceiling, if you can't Defund Obamacare and the EPA and Obama's Executive Orders, if you can't refuse to appropriate money for more Food Stamps and Obama's crony capitalist subsidies, quit now.
But if you can say No, if you can Defund, then you will be heroes to at least half of America, the half that stands for honesty, decency, and protecting our children's future. Make us proud or be gone. This is your chance to be heroes - or to be schmucks. Make these next two years the time you live up to the character and courage of America's Founders.
Right now, history has chosen you to be America's only hope to avoid her falling into destitution and tyranny. Live up to it. It will take more courage than you ever thought it possible for you to have. Reach inside for the best within you. America's future depends on it. The weight of history is on your shoulders. Stand up straight and accept the burden.

Of course they’ll cringe and compromise. Charles Krauthemmer has already pointed the way on Fox...there’s going to be a quick deal on “immigration reform”...and the GOP is going to vote to raise taxes.
This is what Republicans do when they fear the msm/democrat complex.
Funny...I saw a column posted somewhere by E.J. Dionne...claiming that a 2 point victory is no mandate...but of course, it was from ‘04; last week the same author claimed a 2 point victory was, of course, a mandate...the GOP in the House will go along.
Just wait and see.
The only reason they are still there is so they can be whipped around, beat up and blamed for the mess.
There is a smart way, but why mention it. LOL
They are dead men walking.
The democrats do not even need to do the deed, polically speaking, the GOP will kill itself well before it arrives at the gurney.
Unfortunately this will not happen. The House majority is slim and the democrats will peel enough votes from the GOP if they have to because there will be enough members afraid to be blamed for a fiscal disaster.
Apparently we are about to receive every death blow Obama wishes to deliver, after which there will be no chance of republican national majorities.
We can't stop them from destroying everything, but we can stop the MSM from being able to blame us. Walk away. The United States is going to go broke, jobs will be destroyed, and the dollar will become worthless. Dems are in charge. Every city will become Detroit.
In four years the people might want a change... Our boys need to stay out of this fight. Let the dems show the world how thuggy and stupid they can be... we can't stop them - let's stand out of the way ....
Here's what we can do - drop your newspaper, boycott Hollywood, insist on new laws regulating voting... Demand the FBI investigate voter fraud...
Exactly what I just did - copy to my Congress Wienie Eric Cantor.
Jack Wheeler has it about right. But I’m putting my money on GOP capitulation led by Tammy Faye Boehner.
defund Defund DEFUND ASAP. Unless the House defunds all these welfare programs, those on the rolls will continue to vote for the hand that feeds their lazy ass.
“Jack Wheeler has it about right. But Im putting my money on GOP capitulation led by Tammy Faye Boehner.”
Yup.
“Demand the FBI investigate voter fraud...”
You’re joking, right? I’m sure you know that the FBI falls under Eric Holder’s Department of Justice. I mean, think of it: The FBI did such a bang-up job investigating Fast & Furious) that they (the FBI) ignored the scandal completely. Some investigation, huh? The only body or agency that investigated F & F was a committee of the House of Representatives.
And you want Eric Holder’s FBI to investigate voter fraud?
Sometimes one wonders, why are we fighting so hard to be the real Republicans when the brand is so tarnished? We have a good product yet we are fighting to have the Edsel label. We call them Rinos, saying they are not the real Republicans, but maybe they are what they are. Plus having the word “old” in your nickname...good?
The brand has been so badly damaged and watered down, one might as well be trying to keep rights to the word HATERS or BIGOTS or KKK. At some point we need to be a block of voters that both parties clearly NEED and cannot win without. Only then will our issues matter.
It is one thing to lose, but to lose without hearing your case made is demoralizing. To no longer be surprised when they predictably fold, that says something. Democrats fight to the bitter end, no matter what, no matter how foolish they sound. Why? Because they actually believe in what they are saying, (much to my amazement I might add).
The Golden rule is trumped by the Rule by Lead or Steal depending on your preference. He who has the the guns and the will to use them has both the Gold and the Power. From a political point at least, Obama and Company have had no qualms on using them other than to how far across the line they where willing to go. There is no limit this time, it will be scorched earth all the way, and Boehner has already seen to that those how oppose his will will be left out to dry. If you doubt me, just think back to the Republican convention when the new adopted rules that where rammed down everyone’s throats with the voice vote that was 50/50 with maybe a little to the side to stop the adoption of the new rules. Boehner said with a straight and condescending look that the yeas have it, and hit the gavel with a rather sinister/twisted look of satisfaction. That man is a mole.
What am saying is Let It Crash. The blame lays with the democRATS before and after. There is a plan. It is a draft letter to Republican members of Congress to allow the crash to take place. The money wagon or money tree is going to dry up and blow away no matter what is done at this point. Why do the Republicans have to take the blame, Dr. Jack Wheeler?
You are wrong.
The GOP has eliminated itself. By offshoring our industry. Every job which could be eliminated from America has been eliminated from America.
Every person who has lost a job, has BECOME A DEMOCRAT.
We are now very near even. We lost this time, because Romney is a moderate democrat - so a lot of people voted for the other guy.
We can fight back, but we MUST get rid of offshoring.
Now.
Bring back American jobs, and enact laws to protect them.
Now.
I like your plan. Actually I love your plan.
