An Open Letter to Respected Members of the US House and Senate

As I watch the actions you are forcing through what is supposed to be our Democratic process, I am left with many questions, as are the majority of Americans. The most driving question is simply this, and I believe it deserves a thoughtful response. How can someone hate America, and all it stands for, so much that they would devote their life to un-Constitutional actions that will only serve to destroy America? The votes being pushed through the House and the Senate are clearly designed to undermine any hope of true economic progress and growth.

A few of the issues deserve further clarification because you obviously care nothing about your constituents or their beliefs. One such issue is healthcare. The real problem with healthcare and the high prices associated with our excellent healthcare system is lack of government oversight. Not of the healthcare system but of government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. The reality is that unfettered fraudulent claims and underpayment to medical professionals and facilities have led to them passing their true costs on to us, the American people. Fix that issue before you socialize my healthcare or just give America the same healthcare plan you and Obama are so proud to have. As usual, you are the problem, not the solution.

Another current issue is Cap and Trade, a fraudulent method by which you claim ownership of all carbon credits and the right to manage (broker) them. The reality is Global Warming is a huge fraud perpetrated by Al Gore and “scientists” who are making a lot of money to perpetuate this absurd concept. I guess at your level, the “majority” only applies to those with the most money and willing to share with you. God will be your judge and this is one judgment you will not be able to buy your way out of, no matter how much ill-gotten wealth you possess.

On the issue of bailouts: unbelievable! This was nothing more than a payoff to those very persons and institutions responsible for collapsing our economy, nothing more and nothing less. How much money ended up invested in your retirement fund? Of course, we know of $31 billion that didn’t because the banks paid out at least that much in bonuses to “retain” the “best” people they have. These are the same people who created the problem in a system that is failed. Why would anyone want to retain these people and where would they go anyway? To another failed bank? Instead of messing up our healthcare, legislate the corruption out of our financial system if you absolutely must meddle in something.

Taxes? Nothing stands in your way and nothing is beyond your reach through the abuse of taxes. So let’s put this into perspective. You have destroyed the economy that drives the entire world and the ripple effect has not even begun yet. Still, you all pretend the worst is over and “good” times are coming. When an entire plant shuts down, it kills the entire community’s economy, not just for those whose jobs were directly affected, but those whose livelihood was tied indirectly to the plant. This all leads to a huge reduction in tax receipts as the ripple effect destroys entire communities. And with so many politicians and political “allies” not paying their fair share, the remaining workforce simply cannot sustain your fantasy world where no one works and everyone lives off the government.

In closing, I would like to pose one final series of questions, and again, I believe they deserve a thoughtful response. Each decision you make affects every American, including your family members, your friends, and your neighbors. How can you possibly face these people, let alone sleep at night, knowing you have taken actions and continue to entertain actions that will destroy the very foundation that has allowed you to so richly benefit? If you foster such a deep hatred for America and our Christian heritage, why not just take your wealth and leave our country? Is it a matter of pride knowing you will make the history books as part of a minority that destroyed the greatest nation Earth has ever, or will ever see? And yet, you feel no shame at all?

God Bless America and May God have mercy on your soul!

American and Proud Of It!
