The "Common Sense" Letter
An Open Letter to Washington as written by "Janet" From Arizona
(A Proud National 912 Coalition Supporter)

================================================================================================

I'm a home grown American citizen, 53, registered Democrat all my life.

Before the last presidential election I registered as a Republican because
I no longer felt the Democratic Party represents my views or works to
pursue issues important to me. Now I no longer feel the Republican Party
represents my views or works to pursue issues important to me.

The fact is I no longer feel any political party or representative in
Washington represents my views or works to pursue the issues important
to me. There must be someone. Please tell me who you are. Please stand
up and tell me that you are there and that you're willing to fight for our
Constitution as it was written. Please stand up now.

You might ask yourself what my views and issues are that I would horribly
feel so disenfranchised by both major political parties.
What kind of nut job am I? Will you please tell me?

Well, these are briefly my views and issues for which I seek representation:

One, illegal immigration. I want you to stop coddling illegal immigrants and
secure our borders. Close the underground tunnels. Stop the violence and the
trafficking in drugs and people. No amnesty, not again. Been there, done that, no
resolution. P.S., I'm not a racist. This isn't to be confused with legal immigration.

Two, the TARP bill, I want it repealed and I want no further funding
supplied to it. We told you no, but you did it anyway. I want the remaining
unfunded 95% repealed. Freeze, repeal.

Three: Czars, I want the circumvention of our checks and balances stopped
immediately. Fire the czars. No more czars. Government officials answer to the
process, not to the president. Stop trampling on our Constitution and honor it.

Four, cap and trade. The debate on global warming is not over. There is more to say.

Five, universal healthcare. I will not be rushed into another expensive decision.
Don't you dare try to pass this in the middle of the night and then go on break. Slow down!

Six, growing government control. I want states rights and sovereignty fully
restored. I want less government in my life, not more. Shrink it down.
Mind your own business. You have enough to take care of with your
real obligations. Why don't you start there.

Seven, ACORN. I do not want ACORN and its affiliates in charge of our
2010 census. I want them investigated. I also do not want mandatory escrow
fees contributed to them every time on every real estate deal that closes.
Stop the funding to ACORN and its affiliates pending impartial audits and
investigations. I do not trust them with taking the census over with our
taxpayer money. I don't trust them with our taxpayer money. Face up to
the allegations against them and get it resolved before taxpayers get any
more involved with them. If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, hello.
Stop protecting your political buddies. You work for us, the people. Investigate.

Eight, redistribution of wealth. No, no, no. I work for my money. It is mine.
I have always worked for people with more money than I have because
they gave me jobs. That is the only redistribution of wealth that I will support.
I never got a job from a poor person. Why do you want me to hate my
employers? Why -- what do you have against shareholders making a profit?

Nine, charitable contributions. Although I never got a job from a poor
person, I have helped many in need. Charity belongs in our local communities,
where we know our needs best and can use our local talent and our local
resources. Butt out, please. We want to do it ourselves.

Ten, corporate bailouts. Knock it off. Sink or swim like the rest of us. If there are
hard times ahead, we'll be better off just getting into it and letting the strong survive.
Quick and painful. Have you ever ripped off a Band-Aid? We will pull together.
Great things happen in America under great hardship. Give us the chance to innovate.
We cannot disappoint you more than you have disappointed us.

Eleven, transparency and accountability. How about it? No, really, how
about it? Let's have it. Let's say we give the buzzwords a rest and have
some straight honest talk. Please try -- please stop manipulating and trying
to appease me with clever wording. I am not the idiot you obviously take
me for. Stop sneaking around and meeting in back rooms making deals
with your friends. It will only be a prelude to your criminal investigation.
Stop hiding things from me.

Twelve, unprecedented quick spending. Stop it now.

Take a breath. Listen to the people. Let's just slow down and get some
input from some nonpoliticians on the subject. Stop making everything an
emergency. Stop speed reading our bills into law. I am not an activist. I
am not a community organizer. Nor am I a terrorist, a militant or a violent
person. I am a parent and a grandparent. I work. I'm busy. I'm busy.
I am busy, and I am tired. I thought we elected competent people to take
care of the business of government so that we could work, raise our
families, pay our bills, have a little recreation, complain about taxes,
endure our hardships, pursue our personal goals, cut our lawn, wash
our cars on the weekends and be responsible contributing members
of society and teach our children to be the same all while living in the
home of the free and land of the brave.

I entrusted you with upholding the Constitution. I believed in the checks
and balances to keep from getting far off course. What happened? You are
very far off course. Do you really think I find humor in the hiring of a speed
reader to unintelligently ramble all through a bill that you signed into law
without knowing what it contained? I do not. It is a mockery of the responsibility
I have entrusted to you. It is a slap in the face. I am not laughing at your
arrogance. Why is it that I feel as if you would not trust me to make a single
decision about my own life and how I would live it but you should expect that
I should trust you with the debt that you have laid on all of us and our children.

We did not want the TARP bill. We said no. We would repeal it if we could.  I am sure that
we still cannot. There is such urgency and recklessness in all of the recent spending.

From my perspective, it seems that all of you have gone insane. I also know
that I am far from alone in these feelings. Do you honestly feel that your
current pursuits have merit to patriotic Americans? We want it to stop. We
want to put the brakes on everything that is being rushed by us and forced
upon us. We want our voice back. You have forced us to put our lives on
hold to straighten out the mess that you are making. We will have to give up
our vacations, our time spent with our children, any relaxation time we may
have had and money we cannot afford to spend on you to bring our concerns
to Washington. Our president often knows all the right buzzword is
unsustainable. Well, no kidding. How many tens of thousands of dollars
did the focus group cost to come up with that word? We don't want your
overpriced words. Stop treating us like we're morons.

We want all of you to stop focusing on your reelection and do the job we
want done, not the job you want done or the job your party wants done.
You work for us and at this rate I guarantee you not for long because we
are coming. We will be heard and we will be represented. You think we're
so busy with our lives that we will never come for you? We are the
formerly silent majority, all of us who quietly work , pay taxes, obey the
law, vote, save money, keep our noses to the grindstone and we are now
looking up at you. You have awakened us, the patriotic spirit so strong and
so powerful that it had been sleeping too long. You have pushed us too far.

Our numbers are great. They may surprise you. For every one of us who
will be there, there will be hundreds more that could not come. Unlike you,
we have their trust. We will represent them honestly, rest assured. They
will be at the polls on voting day to usher you out of office. We have
cancelled vacations. We will use our last few dollars saved. We will find the
representation among us and a grassroots campaign will flourish. We didn't
ask for this fight. But the gloves are coming off. We do not come in violence,
but we are angry. You will represent us or you will be replaced with someone
who will. There are candidates among us when he will rise like a Phoenix
from the ashes that you have made of our constitution.

Democrat, Republican, independent, libertarian. Understand this. We don't care.

Political parties are meaningless to us. Patriotic Americans are willing to do
right by us and our Constitution ad that is all that matters to us now. We are
going to fire all of you who abuse power and seek more. It is not your power.
It is ours and we want it back. We entrusted you with it and you abused it.

You are dishonorable. You are dishonest. As Americans we are ashamed
of you. You have brought shame to us. If you are not representing the wants
and needs of your constituency loudly and consistently, in spite of the
objections of your party, you will be fired. Did you hear? We no longer
care about your political parties. You need to be loyal to us, not to them.

Because we will get you fired and they will not save you. If you do or can
represent me, my issues, my views, please stand up. Make your identity
known. You need to make some noise about it. Speak up. I need to know
who you are. If you do not speak up, you will be herded out with the rest
of the sheep and we will replace the whole damn congress if need be one
by one. We are coming. Are we coming for you? Who do you represent? 
What do you represent? Listen. Because we are coming.

We the people are coming.
