IMHO, this horse left the barn when we flooded Congress with phone calls, emails and letters re: the first bail out---and we re-elected 95% of them just 2 weeks later. They have good reason not to take US seriously.
Nevertheless, I am forwarding this in hopes that some readers will see it as another reason to attend a Tea Party. Bring your own sign. Rich Martin I plan to be at the ALAMO Tea Party. ------------------------------ Tell Congress to Vote NO on Obama's Massive Tax and Spend Budget! from Tim Phillips, Americans for Prosperity <[email protected]> Tell Congress to Vote NO on Obama's Massive Tax and Spend Budget!Take Action! Believe it or not, Obama and his Congressional allies are already trying to set another new record for reckless overspending. Today Congress is beginning debate on President Obama's unprecedented $3.6 trillion budget that is literally taking our nation toward bankruptcy by borrowing too much, bailing out too many, taxing too much, spending too much and making government too big to sustain. We need you to tell your member of Congress to vote NO on the Obama Budget. You know things are bad when even the French say we're spending too much as their President, Nicholas Sarkozy, has said repeatedly. The Obama budget: Increases net taxes by $1.35 trillion over the next 10 years. Enacts a $646 billion "Global Warming Tax" they call "cap-and-trade." But the White House has already admitted the real cost could be "two-to-three" times higher. These new costs will be passed along to all of us in the form of higher prices on home energy, gasoline and food. Raises taxes on Americans when they give to a charity! At a time when American non-profits are really hurting President Obama wants to increase taxes on charitable giving. Washington elites want our dollars going to government not private charities and that's outrageous. Increases the Death Tax back to the devastating 45 percent rate. The budget lays the foundation for a government take over of health care, including hundreds of billions of dollars in higher taxes, a huge new bureaucracy, and possibly Canadian-style rationing of health care. The budget sets aside hundreds of billions of dollars for more Wall Street bailouts! Every program that has been on the big government wish list for the past decade is crammed into the Obama budget. The Obama budget for 2010 creates a $1.3 trillion deficit, the largest in history. Think about this for a moment -- from 1940 to 1944 we ran a total budget deficit of $1.65 trillion dollars (in today's dollars) -- while preparing to fight and actually fighting the largest war in history. Yet, President Obama runs a deficit almost that big in one year. And, according to the Congressional Budget Office, the Obama budget for the next decade will pile up approximately $10 trillion in debt. You can see the threat to our economic freedom. Take action NOW and tell Congress to vote NO on the Obama Bailout Budget! ------------------------------ *Slick eZine is an announcement list. * *Send replies & comments to this list and **[email protected]*<[email protected]> ------------------------------ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "APFN" group.
