You Want Change? Try These Ideas

Each presidential candidate is giving his rendition of the changes he wants for America.
Here are a few that I believe all Americans want.
Limit Congress from serving more than two terms. That is all that presidents are allowed.
Stop Congress from voting for their own raises. How did that ever get started?
Stop paying for lawmakers’ high-priced insurance premiums. After all, they are only part-time employees. They might pass some law changes on the insurance companies, if they had to find one.
Stop paying lawmakers their full salary after serving just one term, or at retirement. We need to get rid of that pension plan; they’ve let other companies get rid of theirs. You were lucky to get 40 to 50 percent of your salary after working somewhere for 35 years, but they get 100 percent.
Make Congress pay into the Social Security system. They make laws for it. If they spent some of their own money, they might be interested in making it solvent.
Stop handing out aid to illegal aliens. If we did, then Medicaid and the food stamp program would have enough money to aid the aged and the poor.
Secure our borders.
Stop allowing babies born to illegal aliens in the United States automatic U.S. citizenship.
Stop the abuse of our benevolent welfare system. We feed children free meals three times a day until they are 17. Churches give away good, clean clothes. Companies buy and donate school supplies. Emergency rooms provide health care at taxpayer expense and the food stamp program is buying food at home. What are parents doing for their children?
Have a computer program that cross checks Social Security numbers with fingerprints to stop fraud on many fronts. Use it on voter registration, too.
Stop bailing out mortgage companies and banks that give loans to people who cannot afford them.
Stop companies from paying CEOs and other executives outrageous salaries and bonuses while doing away with workers’ pensions.
Stop all unnecessary spending so we will have the money for our nation’s security, and to help needy and elderly Americans.
Stop permitting anyone to have a photo with their face covered on driver’s licenses.
Whoever wins the presidency will not be able to make these changes.
Only members of Congress can do this, as they are the lawmakers.
I don’t believe Congress is interested in changing anything, do you?

These are admiralable ideas that I to believe in. The present President has awaken the sleeping Giant in me and many other, Lovers of Freedom. His Croony Congress is following him down a road of disaster. We can only say God Bless Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, and Fox News. They have been the Only ones to tell us the truth, and question the Administration. Acorn Anyone? The Opinion that Gates talks about Fox Having via Beck, Hannity, et all, Should be News, and thats why The White House wants to stop other networks from telling Americans. The truth He wants stopped about his mad Power Grab, and what is behind it. I asdk this question, Does Barrock Obama see himself as one day being head of the U.N.with America following Global Rules of Law? I do. I see the unemployement He has cuased so more people will need welfare and Unemployment checks. Make them need the Government, bring Chaos to Society. I do believe that this is all a plan, and that the plans are being devised by Atheist, Leftist Progressives, Power Hungry Individuals, That have a big smile in Public, and laugh at us behind closed doors. Independents are waking up to these facts, and others. Organive ourselves, join together, don’t give in. Write Congress and Newspapers your thoughts. For every one that is heard will bring more to Our cuase, of stopping Our Loss of Freedoms, and redistributing the wealth. Don’t vote for this Senior Killing Healthcare the Evil Nancy Pelosi so wants us to have, But not herself. Strange isn’t it, the Elite Politians get it all, make all the rules, and pass it all right to us. They know better than WE do whats best for Us, but they get different Healthcare. Organize to Vote Against Every Single Politian Who votes for this Healthcare Obamanation, or Cap and Trade Economy Killer. Cap and Trade will double unemployment, and will bring about even More Government control for President Obama and Arrogant and Evil Pelosi.
