I just sent this to my Rep and Senators.
Please send it to yours too.

THIS IS IMPORTANT TO YOU, YOUR CHILDREN, AND EVERYONE YOU CARE ABOUT!

Soon, Congress will begin voting on President Obama's budget. It's a big test not only for President Obama, but for our entire Country .
I oppose that budget which is bloated and completely ignores quick, efficient actions.

We are in the grips of the worst economic crisis in generations — and President Obama has presented a budget which will make the situation much worse.
He has proposed a budget that is bloated beyond anything ever presented to Congress. His argument that SPENDING $$$ gives greater returns and growth is simply wrong. If it were true, the budget should be $100 TRILLION or more..Why not?  More Spending gives higher gains.
FALSE!
The Japanese found that out in spades!

His priorities are intellectually ok in some cases but untimely and naive in most..

•  Renewable energy to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of oil is a good goal but his approach is to exclude easy, short term actions in favor of longer more costly answers. The Pareto Principle inside out…20% of the benefit for 80% of expenditure.
•  Making Health Care more affordable for every American by cutting costs. What we really need is to STOP giving benefits to illegals .
•  Improving education so our children are prepared for the jobs of the 21st Century. True, but that is a twenty year deal. We need help TODAY
•  And that help is REDUCED SPENDING…freeze ALL discretionary spending NOW !
  

I saw the "Alternative Budget" put forth by the GOP and I almost threw up!
Are you on Obama's team?
There is virtually no difference!
That is just UNACCEPTABLE!

If I don't see some real support soon. I'll be forced to look for a new Party.

In the meantime, here are two links that one of your staff can look into:

http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=2539741

The first is loaded with data from the Peterson Foundation which states that our Total Debt exceeds 56TRILLION$ and is growing.
If you can't access it via copy-paste, let me know some other way to send you this important info.

The second link is a lighter, but in many ways deeper, appeal for YOU and the GOP to STANDUP for AMERICA.
