- Speaker Boehner,
You have crossed the line calling citizens, who stand for liberty “THOSE PEOPLE”. We are “AMERICANS” and we are trying hard to stop the destruction of our great nation and to stand for our country, our constitution and our existence as a free society. It’s unfortunate that even the so called “leaders” seem to be working against us, instead of doing the job they were sent to D.C., to do.
Your job is to Represent us, and protect us from tyranny both within and without our borders. It’s unfortunate that many in D.C. have forgotten how hard Americans work, to survive, as you continue to take more and more in taxes. It’s unfortunate that all seem to have forgotten that they work for us, not the other way around!
We watch as the national debt continues to climb, hoping that logic will take the reins, but instead watch as our tax dollars are treated as if there were a bottomless pit, as money is squandered, even given to known rogue countries that despise us and wish to kill us, to countries in civil wars, with ruthless leaders that have no regard for laws or the lives of the innocent citizens. To a country that would build the very weapon that could annihilate our closest ally as well as the U.S. if they finalize their bomb. The funding of a healthcare bill that is a travesty and a farce being played on the American People, is at the top of the list. You are the leader of our house of representatives and the overseer of our purse strings. Why weren’t more steps taken to stop this long ago? So many laws have been enacted that do more damage than not to our economy, our life style, our privacy, our 1st and 2nd amendment rights, our very existence as a free citizen of a free nation, are all greatly threatened.
You mentioned that we didn’t even read the latest attempt to cut spending, proposed by rep. Ryan. We understand the games and are tired of the willingness to compromise far too often. We, as citizens, want a “real” beginning to fix the problems that our leaders have lead us into. I find it unfortunate that so many bills are passed because so many in Congress just put their mark on it without knowledge of contents. Our healthcare wouldn’t be threatened, our lives would not have been put on hold, if our leaders had tried to fix the problems plaguing the costs, instead of destroying the best healthcare system in the world. Mr. Boehner, I had high hopes that you would lead us out of this dilemma, but it doesn’t look that way, when, instead you insult those who stand for the values that used to be the republican party.! You owe Americans, whom have given so much, who care what becomes of this great land an apology. I am hoping that you are man enough to do this!
