Bailout Atrocity- Ron Paul Says "Call Your Congress Member Now!"
Politics / Credit Crisis Bailouts Sep 24, 2008 - 02:48 PM GMTIn a Letter from Ron: Time is running out Ron Paul is urging everyone to "Call Them!".
With a Rasmussen poll finding support for the bailout at an anemic seven percent, some members of Congress are afraid to vote for it. Call them! Let them hear from you! Tell them you will never vote for anyone who supports this atrocity.
The issue boils down to this: do we care about freedom? Do we care about responsibility and accountability? Do we care that our government and media have been bought and paid for? Do we care that average Americans are about to be looted in order to subsidize the fattest of cats on Wall Street and in government? Do we care?
When the chips are down, will we stand up and fight, even if it means standing up against every stripe of fashionable opinion in politics and the media?
Times like these have a way of telling us what kind of a people we are, and what kind of country we shall be.
In liberty,
Ron Paul
They Want Mama To Make It All Better
Inquiring minds are listening to Rep. Marcy Kaptur D-Ohio 9th District Toledo. It is one of the best rants you will ever hear in your life. Please Play It. I promise you will not be disappointed.
Here is a partial transcript:
Taxpayers did not get their fair share of the upside, but they are getting all of the downside and a huge IOU. While Wall Street is made whole, the folks on Main Street are getting the bill. What has mama given us here? Are Mr. Bernanke and Mr. Paulson giving them any bet on the upside? They're not even helping them on the downside.
I feel sorry for our country, I feel sorry for this Congress, that we can't do a better job of standing up for the people today. Where's the Federal Reserve, Where's the Treasury?
Why do they only help the rich people? What about the rest of the people who have to work for a living?
Wake Up America. Wake Up America. Contact your member of Congress.
Contact Your Member Of Congress
Thank you Marcy, we are doing just that.
