Merry Christmas 2009 from the United States Senate

I start this with a deep internal groan… I think the acronym for it is BOHICA… Bend Over, Here It Comes Again…. Merry Christmas America!
The United States Senate finally did their dirty deed, and have succeded in giving us a Christmas gift we may never forget… and so they are most of the way there in shoving so-called health care reform [that the majority of Americans have already rejected] down our throats… we are told that we are gonna have to like it. Well… I don’t like it, and I’m not gonna just lie down (nor will I bend over) and just take it!
My New Year’s Resolution for 2010 is simply to call, fax, write or email at least one of my representatives each and every day for the next year, to give them an ear-full of my thoughts about their dastardly deeds, and so they will no longer be able to ignore me, as the likes of Barbara Boxer is apt to do. (Dianne Feinstein is at least a cut above, in that she nearly always sends me a nice letter back explaining to me why I should like bending over and taking it some more, and how her diametrically opposing views will be good for America.
I believe it was Ted Nugent that once said something like: “If your representatives don’t know your name, you aren’t doing your job [as a citizen]“. I intend to get these elitists’ attention. I’m pretty sure we’re going to get their attention come election time though… most of these folks need to be removed from office, and replaced with representatives who will read, understand and follow (support and defend) the Constitution, like all of the current ones swore an oath to do. To borrow a phrase from The Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy, they’ve “stomped on, buried it under soft peat for three months and then recycled it as fire-lighter”, our Constitution, and I will take it NO MORE ! I will continue to keep the oath I took as a member of the U.S. military.

We the people need to ask each and every elected official, both current and those running for future office if they have read the Constitution, and if not, why we should elect them therefore, since they will be required to swear an oath about such things…. We MUST hold these people accountable for what they have done to our country.
