Jim Robinson delivered the following letter to the offices of Senators Arlen Specter, Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe this morning.

The Honorable Arlen Specter
711 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, D.C. 20510

Sen. Specter,

On behalf of the several hundred thousand members of FreeRepublic.com, I urge you to vote against cloture and passage of the so-called stimulus bill, or as we call it, the Porkulus Bill.

We appreciate your good faith efforts on improving the bill. However, statements by your Democratic colleagues show that they have no intention of abiding by the compromises negotiated with you. In short, the Democrats are playing you and the American people for suckers.

This bill needs to be stopped. If passed, it will pile so much debt on our citizens, with more indebtedness to come with TARP and the omnibus bill, that they will become slaves to that debt and slaves to government.

As you reflect on your votes today and tomorrow, I ask you to consider what our Founding Fathers would do in this situation. Would they sacrifice and endure short term pain for the good of the Nation, or would they vote to enslave future generations with unsustainable debt for short term gain?

May God save America from its government,

James C. Robinson
Founder and President

Thank you Jim and Kristinn from the bottom of our hearts here in Vermont.

Whatever happens with Porkulus, the record will show that conservatives had a voice on the record.

That may later result in the wrath of KhanObama, but I say , bring it ON!

[Brad’s Gramma]

Pray for Jim, pray for Kristinn, pray for Free Republic, pray for OUR Republic...

Obama knows that he has to satisfy his leftest puppet masters. His A$$ is grass if he does not.

Too much inn a rush for America to realize what his Porkulus is REALLY about.

WhenAmerica does awaken, it will put Obamas numbers below 20%, whether the bill passes or not. Obama won't have another opportunity to fleece America during the rest of his term as pretend president.

Zero is the ultimate front man. Just give him a teleprompter, wind him up, and watch him wind down.

Did you hear Rush’s comments about how the Acorn man is trying to slip the nationalized health care program in through the Porkulus Bill?

(It’s only a matter of time before I’ll be means tested out of living, if that goes through.)

[rodguy911]

Wow great stuff Star,I was hoping Rush would mention Jim/Rob and Kristin going to DC but nothing. Maybe Hannity or Mark.

[StarCMC]

Done!

[rodguy911]
