Every
market in the world is now suffering. $700 billion has disappeared
and accomplished nothing. The Fed is getting ready to create and
loan another $900 billion to banks and we and our children will pay
for it through the inflation that it will cause. We cannot allow
this to continue. We cannot continue to elect the same people and
expect them to make things better when they have already proven that
they will not.
Millions
of Americans called in and sent emails telling their Congress
members and Senators not to vote for the bailout, but these public
servants ignored the people that they are supposed to be working for
and voted for the bill anyway. How can American citizens continue to
put up with this?
The
elections are less than a month away and, instead of the fear that
they have tried to instill in us, what we need is a good
old-fashioned dose of American anger at the polls. We won’t change
things by doing the same thing over and over and the solution is
going to come by exploring a path that we haven’t been down before.
Nothing that we have done before has fixed this. It’s only made
things worse. It is time for real change, not the phony change that
politicians have been promising for over a hundred years as things
continue to worsen.
If
you have someone working for you and they refuse to do what you tell
them and only do the things that you told them not to do, you fire
them. Now is the time to get rid of the 263 Congress members and 74
Senators who ignored you and voted for this bill. Don’t wait until
they make things worse. We need to send the message that legislators
work for us and not Wall Street. We really don’t have the time to
wait and see what’s going to happen. It has happened and it’s only
going to get worse unless we make some changes. We owe it to
ourselves and our children not to wait another 2 or 4
years.
The
reality is that we won’t get all of these people fired, but there
are several Senators who voted "yes" who are in tight races, and
more who are vulnerable. Things in Congress are better. There are
over a dozen Congress members who are in vulnerable races, where
just a little bit of effort will make the difference. If we get mad
enough, a number of Senators are subject to recall in 18 states that
allow it. We can send a clear message that we won’t tolerate this
foolishness any more.
There
is a new grass roots movement of concerned citizens, called the
Constituent Response Team, forming to help and co-ordinate these
efforts. You can make a difference by signing up and helping. You
can contact them at constituentresponse@gmail.com
and
volunteer to write letters, post to forums, and hang door hangers.
If you have special skills like graphic/ad design, copy writing, or
political analysis, they want you. If you have money to donate, so
much the better!
The
Constituent Response Team hopes to target the vulnerable public
servants who have ignored our wishes with print and radio ads and
replace them with a few good people who know who they work for. If
we get only 10% of these Congress members and 15 Senators replaced
it will change the attitude of the rest and all of them will begin
to listen. We can easily accomplish this in the time
left.
There’s
not a lot of time left before the election so, there won’t be a lot
of talking. There will just be a lot of doing. If you are ready to
do something to help your country, your children, and yourself, all
you have to do is get started.
A month out of your life will make all the difference in the
entire world for generations to come.
Donate
your time and a little money if you have it. We need to get rolling
now.
Take
control of your future by contacting the Constituent Response team
at constituentresponse@gmail.com.
Stand
up with other Americans just like you who are already standing for
their country.

feel free to post this in as many places as you wish.
