take back our country

Did you watch the Wimbledon championship over the weekend? For the first time in decades Andy Murray a Brit made it to the finals. Makeshift outdoor cinemas were constructed to accommodate those not fortunate enough to have an indoor ticket to the event. Pubs across England, three deep at the bar hoisted pints of bitter, cheering every point won by Murray. It didn't matter if they played tennis or were tennis fans. What made the country go Murray crazy? It was because he is a Brit, a country man, one of them. It had nothing to do with government, it's all about the people supporting the person. This made me think of our country and what needs to happen to bring us together as a nation the way we were on September 12th 2001. Never in my life have I seen a more divided country. "We're not going to be red states or blue states, but the United States", REMEMBER who made that statement? As it turns out we are more divided than anytime in our country’s history except perhaps for the civil war. What's it going to take to put us as a nation back on track? I believe the answer is leadership. This November we have a choice, a choice to choose new leadership. There are two distinct visions from those running for president. 1. You can choose a future depending on the American people, the free market system, the entrepreneurial spirit and the Constitution that has governed this country for over 200 years or, 2. You can choose government, government impacting every part of your lives, cradle to grave entitlement programs, more spending with higher taxation. Those are the fundamental differences. Say whatever you want, it's all about less or more government. Before you make your final choice, may I remind you of the abuses suffered at the hands of the current administration, thanks to Monica Crowley; - a nearly trillion dollar economic stimulus that stimulated government but did nothing to excite the private economy. - long term unemployment of over 8%. - tax payer bailouts of hand picked, failing businesses and industries. - random TSA agents fondling us at the airports. - a president that bypasses congress by appointing unaccountable policy czars and issuing mandates through executive order. - telephone book size bills pushing through, urged, by the democratic leadership. - the government takeover of the best health care system in the world. - annual deficit over $1.3 trillion. - the national debt of $17 trillion. - our nation’s humiliation of having our credit downgraded for the first time in history. - the first lady spending tax payer money on lavish vacations around the world. These are just a few of the abuses we the people have suffered over the last 4 years. I will never believe or support that there should be shifted from the people toward government. If you believe as I do, we have but one more chance to reclaim our nation. The choice couldn't be clearer, we the people will continue to believe in liberty and the declaration of independence or become a nation under the current administration believing in the declaration of dependence! What's it going to be?

Raising the debt ceiling

In case you didn’t know, president obama has asked congress to raise the debt ceiling again. This time it’s only $1.3 trillion! By raising the debt ceiling that means the federal government has to borrow another $1.3 trillion dollars to pay our bills.

You may be asking yourself, who can we borrow that much money from? Donald Trump? George Soro’s? I know Warren Buffet? NOPE! We borrow from China and from ourselves. The Federal Reserve just keeps printing money. Sound good but, printing more money de-values our current dollar, making it more expensive to buy goods and services from around the world. Have you noticed the price of goods going up? Just go to the grocery store, you’ll see what I mean.

What I find alarming is, this president has increased our nations debt by over
$7 trillion dollars since he took office. In doing so, not once has he offered to cut spending of any kind.

What does that mean to you and me? Someone has to pay back the money our government is borrowing, and that someone is YOU! I know what you’re thinking, how on God’s green earth are we going to pay back over $17 trillion in debt?
The answer is simple, you’re not. YOUR CHILDREN ARE! AND THEIR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN’S CHILDREN get it?

Here is where we come in. We need to understand the problem and DEMAND from our elected officials both democrat and republican to STOP THE INSANITY! We MUST pass a balance budget amendment. If we don’t, guess what, president obama will ask to raise the debt ceiling again and again and again!

Can you say BANKRUPT NATION?
