First Things First

Well, if you read my latest (previous) post, you know that I am hopping mad over the money that was spent on this boondoggle to India and Indonesia. And, it was while writing that last post that I realized that our elected officials really do not give a hoot about us average Americans. They are gonna keep spending our tax money however they want; on what ever they want.

As I understand it, the Republicans have said that their first priority is to repeal ObamaCare. Well, I think we have a bigger problem than ObamaCare. I think the spending epidemic is the biggest threat we are facing as a country. And, I believe this is going to finally break the back of our Great Nation, if we do not act quickly to get things under control. In a triage situation, you always stop the bleeding before you try to treat other symptoms. Well, we are bleeding big time! And, we need to stop that bleeding before it is too late!

We need the Balanced Budget Amendment RIGHT NOW before it is too late!

I would rather see the Republicans put all efforts towards getting a Balanced Budget Amendment. I don't think anything else matters. A Balanced Budget Amendment would stop the bleeding.

Look, passing a repeal of the ObamaCare is a political tactic. The republicans want to keep a hot topic in front of the American voters, in the hopes that we will elect a Republican President in 2012. Listen up Republicans. We are onto the political games that both you and the Democrats are playing. And, we the people are not gonna put up with it anymore. We voted to put you into power, and we can vote to take you back out again. So, maybe its time to think about the people for a change. If you (the Republicans) want a platform for 2012, the Balanced Budget Amendment should be that platform. If you want to make the Democrats look bad, then do it by making them vote against the Balanced Budget Amendment. That will go a lot further than the repeal of ObamaCare. And, a Balanced Budget Amendment would force the kind of spending restraints that would get rid of ObamaCare anyway. It's a win-win scenario.

First things first - we need to stop the financial hemorrhaging. We need a Balanced Budget Amendment NOW. In order to make this happen, We the People need to stand up and make our voices heard. We have a new Congress coming in January. We need to let them know that the financial hemorrhaging has got to stop. We need to let them know that we want - no we demand - a Balanced Budget Amendment NOW.

So, I am asking you to forward this post to everyone you know. And, most importantly, I am asking you to forward this to your congressional representatives and your senators. We need a grass roots campaign for a Balanced Budget Amendment.

God Bless America!
