Mind-boggling wastefulness

Toby Harnden, US Editor, Telegraph.co.uk reports that the cost to each US taxpayer of Mr. Obama's 2010 budget is $25,573.48. Mr. Obama complains about what he inherited. He sure didn't inherit frugality or fiscal restraint.

Please click on the links to the left for US House and US Senate. Locate your representative and senators and send them the following message:

Dear ___________:

The cost to each of us taxpayers of Mr. Obama's 2010 budget is $25,573.48. I am a taxpayer and I cannot afford this level of unnecessary and wasteful federal government spending. As a taxpayer and a constituent I ask and implore you to vote against this 2010 budget.

Thank you.

This is it in a nutshell.......
"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

~~~~~ The late Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931 - 2005

It's possible the current administration's plan will in fact stop the free fall a lot faster than the guys who just lost the tee box. I never realized just how many many economy experts there were in this country. Let's just give this a chance to play itself out,,,,,,, and see what happens. Limbaugh, Levine, Hannity, and Beck ought to be locked up ...... they're terrorists! They're out of control. Change the channel........you'll feel better.Glad to know you haven't changed much....... me neither,,,,, just not retiring anytime soon.

A readers letter to congress:

Dear so-and-so, Please do not insult my intelligence by proclaiming this is a stimulus package. This is a pay-back bonus for supporters. It is unconscionable to trick the American people who thought things would change for the better. You have mortgaged our children and our grandchildren and put our country at risk. We are not a socialist or communist country and never will be. The only change President Obama is giving us is change in our pockets at this rate. I'm ashamed of all those in Congress who have allowed this to happen.
