Business As Usual Will Not Do – Part 2 Rescue America Coalition

Slightly more than 12 months ago when I launched my failed attempt to defeat Mark Souder in the GOP primary, I wrote a letter to the editor entitled Business as usual will not do. In it I expressed the teetering nature of our nation’s economy, and warned of an impending collapse caused by our government who must live in Alice’s wonderland.
This is not an “I told you so” such discussions are inappropriate in our position. We don’t have the luxury of time. Now is the time to look forward as a nation and take steps that preserve our union and our republic.
This is a call to action.
Our leaders tell us our nation’s future is on the line, but act as if it is Christmas for democrats and their constituencies. Every democratic interest has their hand out like money grows on trees. There is no concern in Washington to be frugal. There is no attempt to be responsible. It is get it now while the gettin’s good. Meanwhile, we make the greatest transgression by forcing our heirs to pay our irresponsible debt, and we do it without shame.
Bernie Goldberg suggested today on Fox News that the democrats were planning on crashing the economy so they can gain the benefit of paying off their interest groups but pay no price because they can blame Bush and the GOP. They will say to the American people “See what they did to us…we tried to stop it.” In fact that process has already started.
If we truly had a responsible government, they would, to a legislator, see to it that not a penny was misspent. The soul of our nation is on the line.
Glenn Beck has been showing a graph published by the St. Louis Federal Reserve that shows U.S. dollars in circulation. It shows that the new stimulus plan doubles the U.S. dollars in circulation. This will effectively cut the value of the dollar in half. Your income was just cut in half.
Our current government is indeed interested in change, but it is not the change that will keep America vibrant and exceptional. It is the kind of change that will marginalize America, and merge it with the rest of the world in its movement towards socialism.
I have formed the Rescue America Coalition. It is a non-partisan coalition that will recruit, campaign, and raise money for candidates that believe in American exceptionalism. It will empower people to seek positions in government that will put American interests first. Not the American government’s interests, or the interests of the powerful, but the interests of everyday Americans. It is not an effort to take care of Americans, but an effort to get government out of the way, and allow Americans to pursue the American dream with liberty and freedom to sweeten the pot.
It’s not a new idea; our founding fathers came up with it about 230 years ago. We need selfless public servants. Sarah Palin mentioned it several times, but the media was too caught up in her daughter, and her ex-brother in law to focus on what really drives the woman.
Help me.
I may not be the best candidate for congress in 2010. We might find someone better. I’m open to that, but we must find someone who cares more about the future of this country than their own self interest. Equally important is that we’ll find good candidates from all parties for offices all over this district.
My Plan is to spread this idea around Indiana in 2009, and do my best to make it a nationwide movement in 2010.
Responsible government is what we need. Popular or not, big hearted or not, the actions taken by this government are not responsible. Stimulus is one thing, but bleeding the treasury for personal gain because you “don’t want to waste a good emergency” (Rahm Emanuel) is beyond the pale.
