Heritage: "An Open Letter to the Congress and the President of the United States"

From this:

For the last 35 years, educators and analysts at The Heritage Foundation have been intimately involved in the nation's great public policy debates. In all that time, we have never encountered legislation with such far-reaching and revolutionary policy implications as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act currently before Congress. And never have we seen a bill more cloaked in secrecy or more withdrawn from open public exposure and honest debate.

In addition to being the single most expensive bill ever proposed, this measure calls for a massive expansion of the federal government's reach into the day-to-day life of virtually every citizen, business and civic organization in the nation. That, in itself, should be the subject of an extensive public conversation and thoughtful debate. Instead, we have seen Congressional leaders schedule snap votes on a 1,434-page bill that no one - repeat, no one - has had a chance to read in its entirety, much less digest and deliberate...

Not only that.....the dems want to silence our opposition to their dirty work. How about a fairness doctrine in the print media? Or in academic's? or on the MSM? Fat chance! Thanks Bush for making this all possible, you MOFO!

Bush was bad...But Obama is worse...... This is change? Does his constituency even possess the brain power to realize that so far he has done things in total opposition to his promises during the campaign? Doubtful. When he pushes amnesty that will insure the perpetuity of his rule. Yes there will be civil unrest and more. Count on it.

Its a shame it even has to happen. [Civil unrest that is] But when your government doesnt do what the people want, [border wall, no amnesty, no off shoring, no more illegal perks] and only think of themselves and their special interests......then that is what will happen, eventually. And the part that makes this the most insulting and degrading: Is they expect us to pay for it! LOL

Mary is right. To above, you will pay until you have no money after that you will be sold.
