Defeat Marxism!! Defeat Porkulus!! Target your wrath!!

Click here to contact your senators! ^ | Feb 7, 2009 | Jim Robinson

Over a trillion dollars of pork! Marxist/socialist big government boondoggle pork!! All of it debt. Over a trillion dollars of new back-breaking debt on top of the trillions of dollars we're already on the hook for!! On top of the trillions of dollars of unfunded social security and medicare debt that is coming due. And this is just the down payment.

It cannot and will not work. Yes, if we allow them to go down this road it WILL be bigger than the Great Depression. They'll continue pouring trillions down the bottomless socialist RAT hole until the country is bankrupt, until the entire world is bankrupt!!

Our country will not survive all out Marxism once it takes hold. Our two centuries of freedom will be ended by out of control big government Marxist/socialist control freaks!!

Get on the phone. Get on the fax. Send emails. Visit their offices. Protest in every city of the land. Do not allow the Democrats to wipe out our freedom!!

But, right now there are four senators that should be targeted. Three of them are Republicans. Concentrate your fire on Collins, Snowe and Specter!! These three weak-kneed RINOs deserve to hear from each and every American citizen whose freedom depends on defeating this Marxist Porkulus bill which threatens to overthrow our freedom. Make no mistake about it, this IS a Marxist Coup D'état!!

These three Republican senators can stop this thing if they would only hold the line and vote NO with the rest of the Republicans. And at least one Democrat is worth targeting. Feinstein is weak on the Democrat side. Call them. Call them again. Email them. Fax them. Visit their offices!! Protest outside their offices. Reverse it now while we can!!

Use your freedom of speech while you have it.

Porkulus is only their first strike. Robbing us of our first amendment protections through the fairness doctrine is the second. Opening the floodgates of immigration (new socialist Democrat voters via amnesty) is the third. Massive voter fraud via ACORN (which Porkulus funds) ensures one party Democrat rule forever. And finally, a massive gun grab will ensure they are never tossed out via the final recourse provided us by the Founding Fathers.

So they think.

Keep your powder dry.

I sent an e-mail to each of my senators. Mine are pretty reliably conservative. Those Freepers in liberal states can do the most good in contacting their Senators.

This is my letter:

Please vote “No” on the Stimulus Bill

Senator X,

I hope you will vote no on the stimulus bill. Presidents Kennedy, Reagan and G.W. Bush cut taxes and successfully stimulated the economy. Presidents Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt both increased taxes. Their economic stimulus plans failed.

Perhaps the greatest economic turn around ever achieved was by President Reagan who cut taxes and partially deregulated the economy. Today’s recession has the fingerprints of government over regulation. This includes the Sarbanes-Oxley Mark to Market provision. It includes government policies that forced banks to make subprime loans. Evidence of the government’s role in the housing market includes the following video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivmL-lXNy64

President Obama says that stimulus is spending. In effect, any government spending is stimulative. But government spending on welfare and other dubious programs will not stimulate the economy. The money will be spent today and will be gone tomorrow. We will be looking at a third major stimulus bill in another two or three months. We cannot afford this “stimulus” package, much less the next one and the one after that.

The current stimulus bill has the effect of further socializing America. The smart money understands. Investors, entrepreneurs and others will continue their blue flu. One weblog contained a letter from a business owner who was concerned about Democratic party control of the White House and Congress. He was convinced this meant the country would tilt towards socialism and his business ownership would be unrewarding and unsatisfying. Thinking ahead, he commenced his nine month plan to liquidate his business by March 2009. These people, and others, will dig in as consumers also. Decreased consumption and increased (uninvested) savings is a prudent way to address the lean times ahead.

Politicians have the power to expand government and contract the private sector. This can be done intentionally or inadvertently. Europeans have more socialism than do Americans. But double digit unemployment is permanent in Europe. Is that what we want? What will happen to the world economy when the United States adopts socialism? It may look a lot like the Hoover/Roosevelt depression. Although the economic costs of the depression were staggering, that was not the total cost. That depression also led to the rise of the great totalitarian murderers, Hitler, Stalin, and eventually Mao. History has a way of repeating itself. Will we now follow Roosevelt with a depression, or Reagan with a recovery?

It's time for Atlas to shrug.

all I get are busy signals on the fax #’s I try.

[RhoTheta]

I was able to use the directory to file forms with all but Arlen Specter -- his whole website seems hosed. I was able to send the following to my Senators, Boxer and Feinstein, but I also emailed Snowe and Collins, and threw in McCain and Lieberman. Here is my letter (the recant clause went to Snowe and Collins only):

Please recant your position on the current stimulus bill before the Senate and stand firm AGAINST the current stimulus bill IN ANY FORM.

It is not a stimulus bill, but a cynical attempt to use the current fiscal situation to pay off campaign promises and accelerate the agenda of centralization of power using a laundry list of the usual spending programs that should be addressed in a standard appropriations bill.

It will not stimulate the economy, but merely encumber the national debt with more expensive programs.

I don't need a little help to buy a new car, nor do I need another small "incentive rebate." In these times, I don't buy a car, I pay off my debt and try to put some in savings toward a further, sure-to-come economic disaster.

These are not normal times. Unshackle business by NOT passing more oppressive, expensive-to-implement regulations, end Sorbane-Oxley, reduce business taxes so that businesses can afford to expand creating jobs, don't attempt to create government jobs. Government needs to GET OUT OF THE WAY, and thereby enable entrepreneurial free market capitalism grow the economy. Thank you,

[Bob Ireland]

***Do not allow the Democrats to wipe out our freedom!!***

You are - of course - correct... However, putting pressure against spending on Fla Sen. Bill Nelson is like trying to teach your dog to love wild cats. :-/

Hope you and yours are well!

[blackie]

Works for me!

Be Ever Vigilant!

[Enterprise]

We need to add in the headline - help defeat the withholding of health care for the elderly portion of this bill. (or something like that)

[Impy]

I’d put ammo in with “arms” whether some judge would disagree I don’t know.

[wita]

I have a general rule that should be applied to all elected public servants and their useless attendents called staff. No cell phone will be issued or owned by those mentioned without the number being known by constituents. Sorry, no mailbox full no fax machine turn off when things get hot. None of that allowed.

I just wonder what the massive backlash for all this manure is going to look like. Not the manure the backlash. Indeed, keep the powder dry.

There Is Only One Way to Handle the Three Republican Traitors. Remove them from the Republican party. How can this be done? Simple.

Contact every Republican office holder/official you can think of and let them know in certain terms that if any senator that votes for the stimulus package is not removed from the party that you will leave the Republican party.

I have not advocated forming a third party, but sometimes you reach a tipping point. If the Republicans can’t stand firm on the most important bill in our lifetime, if they can’t hold this line, then the Republican party is dead. D E A D dead.

Calling the three Republican traitors won’t do any good (they figure they’re safe in their own state, and that the Republican establishment will support them again come election time because they have an R by their name.)

Every single elected Republican official must be made to understand that if they let the three traitors get away with this, every Republican elected official will be punished. The ONLY way to do this is to make them understand that the party will fall apart if they don’t do something. The Republican Party is at the tipping point.

Let them know that the three traitors must be reigned in or kicked out of the party. If not, then you are leaving the party and not voting Republican again. Plain and simple.

If the Republican powers that be get this message from enough people, they will take action (and if they don’t, well then it is time for a new party.)

Jim,

Just emailed both of my Senators and wrote a respectful short note. Tried to call but the phone mailbox of one was full.

I heard the mail, etc., about this was 10-to-1 against it.

Peaceful redress of grievances and right to petition.

Until they take that away.

[texas_mrs]

[Zevonismymuse]

I'm getting through about 15-25% of the time. According to the clerks answering the phones the callers overwhelmingly are against passing the bill in it's current form.

Thanks for being on the ground.

[Zevonismymuse]

Senator Collins will not empty her email box. I have had multiple email returned and I cannot get through to any of her many offices. If you guys get to her office please let her know that she should care what the people she represents think of the so called stimulus bill.

[4integrity]

Anyone know where to find a complete list of what is in the Senate version of the Spenulus bill? Is ACORN still in to get money?? Thanks.

[victim soul]

Thanks for being there for us. I will continue to contact the Demonrats.

We shouldn’t be worried about the three in name only Republicans.

We have to convince reasonable Demonrats that this bill is DISGRACEFUL!!

[auntyfemenist]

Oddly, I don’t see much posted at DU bout porkulus. Wonder why?

[M. Espinola]

Thanks for posting that list, it makes it so much easier.

[TheBattman]

Isn’t it time to change the focus of this thread? The bill passed the senate - only thing left is to reconcile between the two versions which Reid seems to think will be easy...

[MeekOneGOP]

I called the White House comments line today.

I told them that I was part of the two-thirds of Americans
that are OPPOSED to this “so-called” stimulus bill.

If Obama wants an Economic STIMULUS plan, take a look at
HISTORY!

—JFK cut taxes in the early 1960’s to stimulate the
economy. It created jobs and INCREASED $$ to the Treasury.

—Reagan cut taxes in the early 1980’s to stimulate the
economy. It created jobs and INCREASED $$ to the Treasury.

—Bush cut taxes in the early 2000’s to stimulate the
economy. It created jobs and INCREASED $$ to the Treasury.

Uh, do you see a TREND here, Mr. “Present” ??

If you TRULY want to stimulate the economy, study these
pieces of history !!

- - - - - -

Take out the PORK! Obama was incorrect when he said there
is no “Pork” in the “so-called” stimulus bill. Take it OUT!
I specifically told the lady to take OUT the ACORN stuff
and ...

The National Healthcare stuff !!! I told her I was totally
OPPOSED to this !!!
