A letter to Sen. Boxer

I've just completed writing a letter to Senator Boxer. Below is the letter regarding health care reform and taxation. I'll post her follow up as soon as I receive it.

Dear Sen. Boxer,

As a concerned constituent living in the Great State of California, it is my duty to voice objection to the current health care legislation movement of which I hold.

The current fiscal state of this country holds little room for further expenditures in areas that are beyond the bounds of those well-outlined areas described in the Constitution of the United States of America.

Nowhere in the Constitution do the framers state that it is in the interest of the United States government to operate and/or mandate a health care system to cover private citizens of the United States. Given the fact that you've taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, I would expect that you would have enough integrity to stand by your word.

This Democratically controlled Congress has ignored the laws of finance and common sense by spending money that currently does not exist, only to be printed on an ad hoc basis. When will this end? Why doesn't my government abide by the same budgetary laws and guidelines that I, and all other Americans, live by?

We - meaning myself and 300,000,000 other Americans - cannot afford to let this Congress experiment with a business they do not understand. Please listen to your constituents and stop this bill now. Not later, not after we've tried it, now. Now.

Senator Boxer, I'm not asking, I'm telling you as my representative. As a servant of the people of the state of California, stop this now. Not later, now.

I promise you that if you continue to push this tax on the American lower and middle classes - don't kid me with upper class taxes - I will spend the remainder of your career, however long or short that may be, working my hardest to get you out of office. I promise.

My very best,

A Congratulatory Note

Today the House of Representatives voted on the very liberal "stimulus" bill to delve billions of dollars into a gigantic, black sinkhole. It passed.

Typically this would be no time for congratulations, thanks or even a smirk (see "Nasty Pelosi"). But today, the GOP - as a whole - in the House of Representatives stood as one. No single Republican Congressman voted "yes" on this filthy piece of pork-laden, liberal, political smut.

Some say this is the beginning of the rebuilding of the party. I don't care. Not now, anyway. What I care is that the GOP stood as one to represent the thoughts, emotions and political views of their constituents across the United States totaling more than 46% of the public, according to the 2008 election.

To those congressman, I say, "Thank you and congratulations!" Today you've earned your pay, in my eyes.

And to those 11 Democrat congressman, I thank you as well. Thank you for having the intelligence, but more importantly the integrity to say no to something you know is wrong. This piece of legislative junk is intended to further the agenda of a few extremists running the country into the ground. Your foresight may be the key to this country returning to its true roots.

To those reading, and have a soul (conservative, of course), I urge you to write your GOP representative, or one who may not represent your geography, and thank them. Let them know there are millions of us who recognize their efforts as those of the people. This is a baby step, and we have more strides to come, but this is noteworthy, nonetheless. Make the GOP proud again. Make them proud to be conservative.

This is unity.

Facts from the '08 Presidential Election

Below are some sickening facts you must know, considering you're probably a Conservative living in a blue country hell, right now.

Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the '08 Presidential Election:

Number of States won by: Democrats: 20;
Republicans: 30
Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000;
Republicans: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million;
Republicans: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2;
Republicans: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republican won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens.

Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in rented or government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
