Charges against our representatives that no longer represent us, We The People:
Part the first:
You've outsourced our jobs, signed free trade agreements; you've destroyed our manufacturing base, turning us from inventors and entrepeneurs, to servants and 'consumers' all the while luring us deeper and deeper into debt, making us the biggest debtor nation on the planet and removing our national sovereignty in the process.
You've bailed out banks and investment firms while these same banks and investment firms removed us from our homes after our jobs were outsourced, along with robbing our retirement funds and so called social security rendering us homeless and hopeless without your 'intervention'.
You've taken money from these same banks and investment firms, in the form of 'campaign funds', so that you're actually drawing more pay from these corporations than the pay that you collect from We The People, the taxpayers. This means that you are no longer working for nor representing us but instead these banks and investment firms. Yet you continually vote yourselves pay raises while we watch our economy and our nation disintigrate before our very eyes. You take over failing corporations like GM, bail them out, putting us deeper into debt, and tell us these corporations just can't be allowed to fail. But millions of children are homeless while you languish in your bailout money, with big parties and even purchasing jets. Meanwhile the factories lay idle, workers lose homes, and people suffer. If this is what your Change is about, keep it. We don't want any more if it. We can't afford the Change you have already foisted upon us, against our will.
You tell us we are required to take medications that are untried and unsafe and tell us we have no recourse when we, our elderly, and our children get sick, disabled, or worse. Then tell us we have the duty to die since we no longer have the 'quality of life' you decide for us, but destroyed. And you've taken it upon yourselves to decide what that 'quality of life' term means. Then to show us how much confidence you have in these drugs, you've exempted yourself from having to ingest them. You've also taken 'campaign funds' from pharmaceutical companies which are forcing these unsafe drugs on us, which indicates you have a definite conflict of interest.
Then you tell us, after all this, that we are terrorists if we disagree with you, using the very same laws you enacted to supposedly protect us from 'terrorists', against us. When we protest, you assassinate our character, use weapons that you supposedly designed for foreign wartime, against us as in Pittsburgh, PA, and elsewhere.
You harass in the streets with your spy cameras, checkpoints, 'law enforcement officers' rather than 'peace officers'. Then train these law enforcement officers that we are 'insurgents' and should be tortured with your war weapons (ie: LRAD, tazers, along other torture and intimidation methods.)
You take our youth, turn them into killing machines in foreign wars, then tell them that they are 'terrorists' when they return home. In the meantime, they've been trained in house to house confiscation of our 2nd amendment rights, and they've been trained in horrific torture methods... and worse!
You've dreamed up more and more ways to tax us from our homes and jobs than we can keep up with. The hoax you call "global warming" and "climate change" is but one example. You allow your big business corporations, that you have vested interests in, to pollute the atmosphere in other nations, then blame us for their pollution by calling it "global warming". Then when enough scientists speak out with proof just how much of a hoax it really is, you rename it with "climate change" but it's all the same hoax. Do you think everyone is dumb enough to fall for this? Apparantely so, since you're working hard and fast to fool us with your higher taxes while you pollute with your grand jets, mansions you live in, and your lavish lifestyles. All of which we paid for by our "consumerism".
Part the Second:
You've dumbed down our children in your 'public schools' (which have become nothing more than indoctrination centers) so that we are no longer a nation of inventors and producers, but consumers and followers of your globalism. We are no longer the head, but the tail in this globalism. We are no longer out in the forefront in medical advances, medical care, and compassion for those in need of these things.
You've encouraged laziness by your handout (entitlement) programs and destroyed a whole generation of potential hard workers that could have been productive othewise. In the process you've destoyed the family unit by divisively encouraging families to seperate in order to get these handouts. You've discouraged hard work by extorting your so-called 'voluntary' incom tax from the rewards of our hard work. You've further extorted more of our incomes by the tax you call 'inflation', destroying the working person's reason to work hard for its own rewards. This makes you thieves.
You've infilitrated our churches with your 'tax exemption' programs, then removed the freedom of speech we had in our churches so that we are not allowed to 'just say NO'. So much for the seperation of church and state. That seperation seems to be a one way street since you tell us what we can and cannot say from the pulpit. You've destroyed our gospel message by your demands, now you demand that we give equal time to those who oppose what's left of our message. Is the opposition required to give us equal time from their 'pulpit' for which to spead our message?
You've created a culture of victims and crybabies rather than strong charactor and a high moral standard through your infiltration of churches, schools, and families.
You've demanded that we report on each other through your so-called child protective services, teachers, doctors, (etc) and so-called anonymous 'hotlines', further causing division, knowing full well that divided we fall.
You keep telling us that we are racists when we are all of the same race, called human. We had inalienable rights as humans until you saw fit to twist, then remove those rights, that you had no rights to take, since these are God-given inalienable rights.
Part the Third:
You've corrupted the election process and our political process so seriously that we've become the laughingstock of the world.
You tell us we have to supply our 'papers please' at upon demand, then refuse to supply the same paperwork at the public's demand. (Where's the infamous Birth Certificate?)
You've enacted laws that completely violate the Constitution and tell us they're constitutional. Laws (bills) you haven't even read! And when we say they are not, you label us as terrorists. You demand We The People follow these unjust laws but you've exempted yourselves from them.
You've corrupted our justice system with rogue judges, threatened and cajoled jurors into enforcing these bad and unconstitutional laws. You've removed all justice from our legal system in every court this nation.
You've destroyed our Constitution and our Bill of Rights and tell us it's so that we can have 'security'. So much so, that we now need protection from YOU!
The main thing is:
YOU LIE!
Respectfully,

"I'm Tired" by Robert A. Hall
I'll be 63 soon. Except for one semester in college when jobs were
Scarce, and a six-month period when I was between jobs, but job-hunting
every day, I've worked, hard, since I was 18. Despite some health
challenges, I still put in 50-hour weeks, and haven't called in sick in
seven or eight years. I make a good salary, but I didn't inherit my job
or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, there's
no retirement in sight, and I'm tired. Very tired.
I'm tired of being told that I have to "spread the wealth around" to
people who don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the
government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give
it to people too lazy or stupid to earn it.
I'm tired of being told that I have to pay more taxes to "keep people in
their homes." Sure, if they lost their jobs or got sick, I'm willing to
help but if they bought McMansions at three times the price of our
Paid-off, $250,000 condo, on one-third of my salary, then let the
left-wing Congress-critters who passed Fannie and Freddie and the
Community Reinvestment Act that created the bubble help them with their
own money.
I'm tired of being told how bad America is by left-wing millionaires
like Michael Moore, George Soros, and Hollywood entertainers who live in
luxury because of the opportunities America offers. In thirty years, if
they get their way, the United States will have the economy of Zimbabwe
, the freedom of the press of China , the crime and violence of Mexico ,
the tolerance for Christian People of Iran , and the freedom of speech
of Venezuela. Won't multiculturalism be beautiful?
I'm tired of being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every
day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters,
wives and daughters for their family "honor"; of Muslims rioting over
some slight Offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because
they aren't "believers"; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of
Muslims stoning Teenage rape victims to death for "adultery"; of Muslims
mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah,
because the Qur'an and Shari'a law tells them to.
I'm tired of being told that "race doesn't matter" in the post-racial
world of Obama, when it's all that matters in affirmative action jobs,
lower college admission and graduation standards for minorities (harming
them the most), government contract set-asides, and in the appointment
of US Senators from Illinois. I believe "a man should be judged by the
content of his character, not by the color of his skin." But, tolerance
for the ghetto culture of violence and fatherless children hurts
minorities more than anyone. I think it's very cool that we have a black
president and that a black child is doing her homework at the desk where
Lincoln wrote the emancipation Proclamation. I just wish the black
president was Condi Rice, or someone who believes more in freedom and
the individual and less arrogantly of an all-knowing government.
I'm tired of a news media that thinks Bush's fundraising and inaugural
Expenses were obscene, but that think Obama's, at triple the cost, were
wonderful. That thinks Bush exercising daily was a waste of presidential
Time, but Obama exercising is a great example for the public to control
weight and stress, that picked over every line of Bush's military
records, but never demanded that Kerry release his, that slammed Palin,
with two years as governor, for being too inexperienced for VP, but
touted Obama with three years as senator as potentially the best
president ever. Wonder why people are dropping their subscriptions or
switching to Fox News? Get a Clue. I didn't vote for Bush in 2000, but
the media and Kerry drove me to his camp in 2004.
I'm tired of being told that out of "tolerance for other cultures" we
must let Saudi Arabia use our oil money to fund mosques and madrassa
Islamic Schools to preach hate in America, while no American group is
allowed to fund a church, synagogue, or religious school in Saudi Arabia
to teach love And tolerance.
I'm tired of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global
warming, which no one is allowed to debate. My wife and I live in a
two-bedroom apartment and carpool together five miles to our jobs. We
also own a three-bedroom condo where our daughter and granddaughter
live. Our carbon footprint is about 5% of Al Gore's, and if you're
greener than Gore, you're green enough.
I'm tired of being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must
help support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant
germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up
their noses while they tried to fight it off? I don't think gay people
choose to be gay, but I damn sure think druggies chose to take drugs.
And I'm tired of harassment from cool people treating me like a freak
when I tell them I never tried marijuana.
I'm tired of illegal aliens being called "undocumented workers,"
especially the ones who aren't working, but are living on welfare or
crime. What's next? Calling drug dealers, Undocumented Pharmacists"?
And, no, I'm not against Hispanics. Most of them are Catholic, and it's
been a few hundred years since Catholics wanted to kill me for my
religion. I'm willing to fast track for citizenship any Hispanic person,
who can speak English, doesn't have a criminal record and who is
self-supporting without family on welfare, or who serves honorably for
three years in our military... Those are the citizens we need.
I'm tired of latte liberals and journalists, who would never wear the
uniform of the Republic themselves, or let their entitlement-handicapped
kids near a recruiting station, trashing our military. They and their
kids can sit at home, never having to make split-second decisions under
life and death circumstances, and bad mouth better people than
themselves. Do bad things happen in war? You bet. Do our troops
sometimes misbehave? Sure.
Does this compare with the atrocities that were the policy of our
enemies for the last fifty years-and still are? Not even close. So
here's the deal. I'll let myself be subjected to all the humiliation and
abuse that was heaped on terrorists at Abu Ghraib or Gitmo, and the
critics can let themselves be subject to captivity by the Muslims who
tortured and beheaded Daniel Pearl in Pakistan, or the Muslims who
tortured and murdered Marine Lt. Col. William Higgins in Lebanon , or
the Muslims who ran the blood-spattered Al Qaeda torture rooms our
troops found in Iraq , or the Muslims who cut off the heads of
schoolgirls in Indonesia , because the girls were Christian. Then we'll
compare notes. British and American soldiers are the only troops in
history that civilians came to for help and handouts, instead of hiding
from in fear.
I'm tired of people telling me that their party has a corner on virtue
and the other party has a corner on corruption. Read the papers-bums are
bipartisan. And I'm tired of people telling me we need bipartisanship. I
live in Illinois , where the " Illinois Combine" of Democrats has worked
to loot the public for years. Not to mention the tax cheats in Obama's
cabinet as well.
I'm tired of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers, and politicians of
both parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or
youthful mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was
getting caught. I'm tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or
poor. Speaking of poor, I'm tired of hearing people with air-conditioned
homes, color TVs and two cars being called poor. The majority of
Americans didn't have that in 1970, but we didn't know we were "poor."
The poverty pimps have to keep changing the definition of poor to keep
the dollars flowing.
I'm real tired of people who don't take responsibility for their lives
and actions. I'm tired of hearing them blame the government, or
discrimination, or big-whatever for their problems.
Yes, I'm damn tired. But I'm also glad to be 63. Because, mostly, I'm
not going to have to see the world these people are making. I'm just
sorry for my granddaughter.
