This parties getting interesting.

I think this Tea Party idea has taken hold. Parties are springing up all over like prairie wild flower blooms in the spring. Most major cities are having one on the 15th of April. Nothing like a tax protest on national tax day. I'm going to host one as well.

I'm going to be in Austin Texas at the capitol steps on the 15th under my banner of 'One Angry Taxpayer'. This is not and will not have anything to with the Constitution Party. My local county party can't provide support for political reasons. I can't provide a better reason as I don't have one.

I ask you to be a 'One Angry Taxpayer' as well and join me in Austin, or be one on your capitol building as well. This protest needs to be at your capitol building if you can make it. We need to do this at the capitol for several reasons.

1. Time is short. Our 'leaders' in congress are moving at warp speed in Washington DC to implement the socialist takeover of America. They are not listening to us in small voices.

2. The dilution effect. Many small parties all over the state in towns and cities are easy to ignore. Time is short and we need a large visible party to be seen in the national news. Lets get as many folks as possible together in one spot.

3. Its where our state politicians are. Most legislatures are in session now and for them April 15th is a work day. Lets show up where they work. They need to see we are angry, not hear about it from some staffer at the home office, which may not be in your town.

With the exception of Texas, Alaska, and maybe California most folks can get to their capitol in an easy half a days travel. With our Governor and state reps there, I want them to see me and I want to see them. I will be gathering signatures on two petitions. One will be for the legislature to enforce the 10th amendment on states sovereignty. The other will be calling on the governor to reign in our state delegation in Washington DC.. Any one who votes for a bill they haven't read, like the latest 'stimulus' bill doesn't represent anyone.

I hope to see you there or on the news.

Temper tantrum in chief

Well, well, well. President obama has already lost it. The other day he had a major fit because the republicans in the senate would not toe the line on his stimulus spending package. He reminded the republicans, "we won the election". He reminded me of a kid chiding others to play by his rules or he will take his ball and go home. Where have we heard such a line before? Oh yea, "we are the president" billary, complaining on the defeat of her healthcare takeover.

Well he should be happy today. He got three RINO's to go over to his side and pass the package out of the senate. These three RINO's shot the republican party in the foot again. They could have put the whole stimulus package onto the backs of the democratic party. Now when this pork package fails to fix the economy the democrats can claim it was the republicans fault too. Why the republican party doesn't kick these losers out of their caucus is beyond me.

Its friends like these that will finally take the republican party the way of the dodo and the whig party. As a member of the Constitution Party this can't happen soon enough. A smart party would purge itself from this type of people. A smart party would let the democrats run the whole show and be fully responsible for its failure. It will fail. It failed during the first depression and it will fail during this depression. Given the type of politicians we have in Washington DC it can do nothing but fail.

The main problems that led to this depression still remain. Homeowners that are facing foreclosure are still there and nothing in this bill will fix it. The dollar is still weak and will get weaker with the coming inflation. More banks are failing and will fail. The commercial property failures have yet to begin. We as a nation produce less and less every year. As the government spends more money less is available for investment and starting up of manufacturing.

The lack trust in the government and our current socialist system will cause its demise. The government policies that caused these problems will only get worse. The politicians only see the government as the cure or solution. They never see that they are the problem. Socialism never last long before it collapses under its shear weight and burden on the people. The only real question then is, will the union hold together or will it fracture into large chunks? Will we fall into fascism or will we throw off the shackles and win back our freedom?

Are you prepared? Are you just a sheeple? Are you ready to fight for your freedom? Are you a slave to the government or are you a free person?

Where does it end?

Just where does the bailout gravy train end? Does congress even care that their poll numbers are around 9% and falling? Of course they don't! We, the displeased voters of America, just re-elected most of them. We don't pay for their campaigns, the banks and unions do. We just listen to their promises of change and vote for the 'new boss, same as the old boss'. And yes, it appears we got fooled again. Most of Obama's advisers are from the Clinton regime. So much for change. Those who brought us the banking crisis like Dodd and Frank are still there too.

It now looks like the bailout tab is running at around seven trillion dollars. The failed auto industry is asking for 34 billion and may get 15 billion to tide them over through March. One can assume they will be back hat in hand again before that. Just who wants to buy a car from them not knowing if they will still be in business to honor their warranties? Oh wait, maybe we can get congress to guarantee them at taxpayer expense. (Don't send this to your reps. and give them any ideas!)

Folks, it's time to stop digging this hole any deeper. We need to revolt against this farce. If you are getting a tax refund this year make it a point to file as soon as you can and get YOUR money out of their hands. Don't wait too long. Once congress reconvenes after Obama takes charge you can expect tax changes real quick. It may cost you your refund if you haven't gotten it yet. If you owe money wait until April to file. Don't give it to them any sooner than you have to.

It's time for the electorate to wake up to these crooks. Please make a real change. Change parties and let those now in power know that you have left their party. The only thing they fear is not getting re-elected. In 2010 the House of Representatives will be up for re-election. Lets start throwing the bums out. Don't let them tell you they voted against the bailouts. So what if they did? These millionaires have much greater access to the courts that you and me. I have yet to see one lawsuit against these unconstitutional bills. Ron Paul even said the bill was unconstitutional, "but that's OK, they've done it before". If like me, you have never joined a political party before do so now. It's your money and your country.

Lets take it back!

Washington's $5 Trillion Tab

Five trillion dollars. It's a mind boggling amount that only the government can comprehend. Forbes is reporting the best estimated tab for the current financial crisis is at least five trillion dollars. Has anyone heard this from our elected officials? Of course not. They cannot even tell us where the two trillion the treasury recently lent out went to. Why not? The treasury is refusing to tell anyone where the money went , thats why. It's plain to me there is no such thing as congressional oversight. Why would that be? In a word, Denial, that's why. If they don't know about it they can express outrage when the public finds out the cost being laid on our backs. At that point though nothing can be done as the money is gone. The only road through this crisis is a deep recession if not a long lasting depression. Those elected will only charge the other side with being at fault and then promise things will change if we only elect more of their party. If pigs wear lipstick and fly.

Fixing this crisis will take a fundamental shift in thinking and management. We must stop throwing away out capital and let these institutions fail. Their failure is already a forgone conclusion. Their failed management remains unchanged and the reason for the failure will still be there when the public money well runs dry. With no money available after the final failure the recovery will be prolonged if at all. A wise man said the first thing you must do when you find yourself in a deep hole is to stop digging. Lets stop digging and fill the hole with the buried bodies of these failed companies and their political supporters..

Contact your representatives and let them know your displeasure. Demand they stop wasting YOUR money prolonging failure. If they don't listen leave their party and tell them why. Nothing gets a politicians attention faster than losing support and voters. If your state has a recall process then start a recall. Even if they survive the recall attempt, the expense and the effort will help change their conduct. Be in their face daily. E-mail them and call them all the time. Fear of a pissed off electorate is a great thing for finally getting things done.
