Just Say No!

When Nancy Reagan was asked by a little kid when she was the First Lady "What should I do if someone asks me to smoke (i.e. or do drugs)? she said, "Just Say No!" That launched a campaign all across the nation in every school about standing up, taking personal responsibility, and just saying NO! to things that will do us harm. I would like to propose to extend this campaign to stretch to other areas of our lives that our government is doing that will harm us as individuals, families, businesses, and our nation. JUST SAY NO!

The latest from FoxNews.com: "Two top Democrats say they want to impose a new tax on the wealthy to finance any increase in U.S. troops for the Afghanistan war.

"Rep. David Obey, D-Wis., chairman of the purse string-controlling House Appropriations Committee, is calling the idea a "war surtax." He said that just as the federal government is expected to pay for its proposed intervention in the health care sector with new taxes, any escalated involvement in Afghanistan should come with a payment plan."

This all comes about with President Obama's looming decision on his strategy in Afghanistan that he plans to announce on December 1st. It's only been since August that his general, Stanley McCrystal, has requested 40,000 more troops. Rep. David Obey said if an increase like that is approved without any payment mechanism, then other domestic initiatives would be wiped out.

What other domestic initiatives would be wiped out dare I ask? Oh how about the trillion dollar overhaul of our nation's health care, cap and trade, and other programs designed to bring our nation to socialism and the redistribution of wealth.

Our nation and government cannot continue to spend money that we don't have. In our own household, if we continue to live beyond our means and continue to spend money that we don't have it will eventually catch up with us. What happens then? Do we get a government bail out? No. We have to seriously get our finances under control, balance our budget, stop spending, and just say no to stuff we don't need! Either that or claim bankruptcy and start it all over again without any lessons being learned.

JUST SAY NO! to this new proposed "War Surtax!"

JUST SAY NO! to health care reform!

JUST SAY NO! to cap and trade!

JUST SAY NO! to anymore frivolous government spending!

JUST SAY NO! to corruption!

We cannot let our government keep spending us into oblivion! Sooner or later it's going to catch up with us and inflation and interest rates are going to go through the roof and our nation will come to a standstill. JUST SAY NO!

Janet Contreras' Letter: My Personal Thoughts (Part 2)

Continuing from my previous post on my personal thoughts from Janet Contreras' letter. Someone, like you and me, who is fed up with what our government is doing. I am also fed up with what is happening in and to our nation and am trying to get the word out so as many people can be informed and decide for themselves. Items 7-12 from the letter continues...

7. ACORN: During the 2008 Presidential elections, ACORN was and continues to be under investigation for voter fraud. But we haven't really heard about it much in the media have we? Most likely because Obama has ties to ACORN and the Obama-Mania-Media is in love with our fearless leader that they threw their journalism skills out the window a long time ago. I want ACORN investigated! Nothing is being done! I definitely don't want ACORN and its affiliates in charge of our 2010 census. Funding to ACORN needs to stop, the books open, audits performed, and fully investigated. This just in, ACORN is changing their name to Community Organizations International. Why? Hmmm, maybe it has something to do with the all the voter fraud investigations going on? Convenient, isn't it? Read more about that here.

8. Redistribution of Wealth: Uh, leave my money alone. I've worked hard for it and don't want my future wealth spread around. We found out where Barack Obama really stands when he met Joe the Plumber on the campaign trail. Obama's campaign answer to Joe the Plumber, who was worried that his taxes would rise. "It's not that I want to punish your success," Obama told him. "I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they've got a chance to success, too. I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody." What incentive do I have to make more money if it's just going to be taken away and "redistributed" to some slacker who doesn't know how to work for themselves? Doing this will just entitle them more and depend more on the government for their every need and won't learn the skills to fend for themselves. How about a flat tax rate where everyone pays the same percentage of income tax regardless of how much they make?

9. Charitable Donations:This may come to a surprise to some people, but President Obama is toying with the idea of stopping the charitable donation tax deduction incentive! Are you kidding me?! That's just about a bright idea as him thinking about cutting Veterans off from their health insurance...yes it's true. I help many in need. Stop butting in and trying to decide what's best for us and where we should put our money. We want to do it ourselves.

10. Corporate Bailouts: Like Janet said, "KNOCK IT OFF!" It's a bunch of crap that companies are "too big to fail." That's how America became so great! Companies failed and innovation and reorganizing ensued helping to make their companies stronger. Let them fail and let the strong survive! It's how the free market works. Free...I don't want the government running our banks, automobile industry, or health care for that matter.

11. Transparency and Accountability:Does anyone believe in being honest anymore? Actually doing what they tell us they're going to do instead of saying one thing and doing another? That's called hypocrisy by the way. How about being accountable for your own actions and stop placing blame on why your failed policies didn't work...or wont' work. Admit your mistakes, that you were wrong, and promise to the American people that it won't happen again! I don't like being lied to and manipulated! I'm not as dumb as you think I am...I see through the clever words and speeches designed to "sound" good when really it's a bunch of garbage. "Oh be wise, what can I say more?"

12. Unprecedented Quick Spending:"We've got to act now," "If we don't do this bad things will happen." STOP IT ALREADY! Slow the freak down and have a little respect with our money! Listen to yourselves..."to save money we need to spend money." Does that sound like common sense? Uh, no. How can you tell us to be fiscally responsible and to live within our means when you're on track to spend more money that every administration combined?! I think our government needs a totally money makeover...Dave Ramsey can help. Do you get someone to run our Treasury department that's morally sound and honest, nope, you appoint Tax Cheat Timothy Geitner. Smart, really smart.

Enough is enough. "We the people are coming."
