62 Million Voiceless Americans
Flopping Aces ^ | 06-11-09 | Nancy Morgan

undernew20management20200.jpgIs it still called debate when only one side controls the conversation? That's the question the 62 million Americans who didn't vote for Obama are asking themselves.

62 million Americans now have absolutely no voice in the way our country is being governed. No say in the quadrupling of our debt or in the onerous taxes being piled on top of record unemployment. They have no say in the pending trillion dollar health care 'reform' or the more costly 'cap and trade' legislation steadily making its way through Congress.

With Democrats firmly in control of the White House and the House of Representatives, and most likely the Senate, the left has found no need for bipartisanship. After all, 'Obama won.' Case closed.

Should any pesky Republican complain, the voice goes unheard - kinda like a tree falling in a forest. Did it really fall if no one heard it? The right is reduced to pondering questions like these as the left continues implementing radical change at breakneck speed. Changes that affect every segment of our society and every single American. Changes that are being implemented without the requisite 'national conversation'. Why hold a conversation?

The left is in control and there is no need to consult with the people they were elected to govern. The politicians and the experts know best. And should the GOP try to halt this tsunami of 'change', a quick change of the filibuster rule to 51 instead of 60 is put in place. That'll teach em.

Under the guise of fighting the non-crisis of global warming, the EPA has declared the very air we breathe to be dangerous. Not to worry. Uncle Sam will save us. Here comes cap and trade. It will only cost $3,100 extra in energy costs per family.

Under the guise of universal health care, our government is preparing to take over app. 17% of our economy by nationalizing health care. Not to worry, they are consulting with the policymakers in Canada responsible for the sterling healthcare in that country. The very same government health care that forces Canadians to come to the US to get their medical needs taken care of.

Nancy...62 million voted for McCain or other candidates...an additional 75 million eligible voters stayed home. Roughly 140 million eligible voters did not vote for Obama; not 62.

Sadly they are far more knowledgeable about John & Kate +8 than nationalized healthcare or cap N tax.

“62 million Americans now have absolutely no voice in the way our country is being governed.”

They’re perfectly free to say “yes sir, may I have another.”

Or we can ask the Catholic/Evangelicals who voted Obama. That boggles the mind.

You know....I think this is where a national billboard campaign may be effective to target these sheep. Have a sign that resembles these programs.....and throw in a WAKE UP message. JMO.

This typically happens every election. Most of time time, we have very close elections so half the folks are unhappy. This story could be written every four years. lol.

Tea Party time for millions of Americans. Take your signs and show the world we reject tyranny. Put Congress on notice that they’re TOAST. We reject their power grab, we reject their Socialism; we reject them!!! Vote Them ALL Out. Liberals, RINO’s and GOP leaders with no gonads have to be sent home in shame.
