OK Read all the responses to this post. So what can we do? It is obvious that most all republicans have no backbone and are feckless. They become part of the ruling class once they get to D.C. and everything changes; they suddenly don’t see the world as it is. Where now? I get at least 10 e-mails a day from every “ conservative” group in existence. All they want is money. Sorry guys, no more. If you want another penny, here is what you have to do. 1. Freeze federal spending. No more hiring.
2. Abolish the education dept, the EPA, the energy dept., and that is just the start.
3.Reduce federal spending a minimum of ten percent a year until the budget is balanced.
4. Term limits: 2 terms for congressman, one for senators.
5. Repeal the seventeenth amendment.
6. Every budget must be balanced.
7. Put Reid out of office, put Holder on trial for treason.
8. Who is the crazy one here? Nothing will happen, nothing will change. All continues as we go off the cliff into oblivion.
9. Oh yes, then there is the “Federal” reserve. I won’t go there as that is a hornet’s nest purposely designed to be one. We are doomed. Woe is us
The left, including RINO’s, here in TN have been peddling that for years. Don “The Tax Terrorist” Sundquist (RINO) governor tried that line to unconstitutionally implement a state income tax.
When we rose up and complained that their spending was the problem the called it the “Armageddon Budget” that would wreck havoc on our state. And again, this was a so-called Republican. Then he shut down parks, rest stops, etc. just to tick folks off.
When we rallied around the capital and protested they faked an “attack” from a rock threw a window and called out the brownshirts (not a reference, our state troopers wear them) with GUNS to stand and face us during their last attempt to vote the tax in. They lost.
If I ever became governor of TN I'd make sure every single one of those troopers that followed that order be prosecuted for being a-holes, throw them in prison and ruing their lives.
The statist won't stop. /rant
