The U.S. Government is Playing Games with American Lives
Until recently President George W. Bush and Congress were opposed to Stem Cell Research. This stance was taken simply to gain political support by good-hearted conservative citizens. How easily you conservatives are fooled and sell out your principles & integrity to corrupt political leaders. Now measures supporting Stem Cell Research have passed the House of Representatives. I didn’t know moral values could change so rapidly, from election cycle to election cycle according to Republicans.
Republicans also wanted to interfere in the matter of Terri Schaivo’s life. Which was a personal matter of the family, where government has no place.
And please don’t forget the disregard of President Bush and Congress for the lives of American soldiers lost in vain for this unjustified War in Iraq.

End the War in Iraq!
What About the Innocent Children?
“Why must we do to the people of Iraq, what Osama Bin Laden did to us?” Last week I saw another typical picture of a car bomb in Iraq. What disturbed me the most was the half dozen children standing around this recently exploded car. Can we not govern and bring order to this area as effectively as the Former Dictator Saddam Hussan? What we have done in Iraq is a shame. Bring our troops home, Now!
We do have a responsibility in Iraq. But at what cost of our continued mistakes. We are "fucking up terribly there.
We need an exit strategy that brings our troops home but still caries out our responsibility in Iraq. Maybe we should continue to provide financial support to efforts in Iraq and also support the U.N. to lead the efforts to form a Democratic Iraq.
I see this like you own a business and you have an employee that continues to make mistakes. You give them many chances, but they continue to mess up. At what point do you decide to let this employee go. When will the American people decide to separate ourselves from this disaster.
Also, on a personal note: I am Christian and we have a phrase we use in our churches referring to someone’s "blood being on your hands". As Americans how can WE sit back at let innocent people; children be killed. Their blood is on our hands

Fix the Economy!!!
Fix the Economy of The United States of America before it Burst.
There is only one policy we should apply when addressing the possible economic disaster facing our country.
Balance the Budget.
Premise: We cannot begin to pay down the National Deficit before the Budget is balanced.
How? For the President and the Republican led Congress to stop abusing their power and responsibility over tax payer dollars in the National Budget & Tax Code, and to make a budget that is right & balanced for ALL Americans.
Plan and simple.

Where is our Nation headed?
A Message to Christians & Our Churches.
What would Jesus do, lets say if he were the President of the United States of America? Would he carry out a similar agenda to that of President George W. Bush and the Republicans? The Bible says that Christians are a “peculiar people”. How dare we give our allegiance to anyone but our lord and savior, our allegiance certainly in my opinion does not belong to the Republican nor the Democratic parties.
Haven’t we made enough mistakes in Iraq. We were wrong for invading Iraq, we killed and are killing innocent Iraqi citizens. We are disrespecting their culture. Because President George W. Bush mislead us or is incompetent in the area of commanding a military the lives of thousands of our men and women have been and will continue to be lost. We have not captured or killed Osama Bin Laden, and why have we diverted resources from this true War on Terror? Why aren’t our troops properly trained on interacting with the people of Iraq and Afghanistan? Why are we not respecting their culture while we claim to be bringing them Democracy. Nelson Mandela, former President of South Africa should be leading the efforts in building Democracy in Iraq not President George W. Bush. Bush’s policy in his own words is “bring it on”. Nelson’s advise to our president is “democracy can not be forced, it must be home grown”. True words of wisdom from a truly great leader. Bring our troops home, Now!
President Bush has had success in only one area, which I support in the Faith Based Initiatives (FBCI). But my Christian brothers & sisters I believe some of us have been fooled. Republicans have crossed boundaries and taking advantage of our kindness, generosity, and frankly the financial needs of our churches. But the true Christian Church can not be bought. Those of you whose names were once written in the Lambs Book of Life may find it erased because you turned the other cheek while innocent lives across the globe are becoming casualties of war, and while domestic needs like jobs, homeland security, Social Security, & Health Care are being neglected at home. Please follow the Holy Spirit, the example of Jesus Christ and the Gospel of our God and not give the respect of these our sacred Trinity to a businessman and politician in George W. Bush, who may very well be the first fool.

Republicans are Fiscally Irresponsible.
Republicans are in fact not more fiscally responsible in government. This is a myth. Republicans are the party of deficit spending, and big government not Democrats. I have provide facts to support my claims. What is the contrast in my opinion:
Democratic policy yes probably would support mild raises in taxes to promote programs such as affordable and quality Health Care for people in all income levels or making budgetary decrease in areas like the Dept. of Defense to increase funding in other Domestic programs like more police officers on our streets.
Republican policy would decrease taxes unproportionally for people in upper income brackets and businesses, while increasing deficit spending in areas like Defense. It would cut and decrease funding for important not just controversial programs. It would increase the number of government employees in the military, pursue costly wars, and therefore the long term liabilities associated with these commitments. It would neglect domestic programs in the hope that private sector would fill the gaps.
Here is a recent quote from President Bush. It appears he is planning to push for another tax cut for the rich.
“We've also got to make sure that we continue to reduce regulation. I think an important -- I know an important initiative that we're going to be coming forth with here probably in the fall is tax reform. I was amazed by the report the other day that there is some $330 billion a year that goes unpaid by American taxpayers. It's a phenomenal amount of money. To me, it screams for making the tax system easier to understand, more fair and to make sure that people pay their taxes -- "more fair" means pay what you owe. - George W. Bush “http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/20...20050428-9.html
The Republican led government is also neglecting a responsibility to provide adequate Health & Psychological care to soldiers and veterans. Below is a quote from a American Veterans.
“The Administration’s budget request, as well as the congressional Majority request submitted by both the House and Senate Committees on Veterans’ Affairs, provides virtually flat-line funding for veterans’ health care. The measures recommended by the Administration and congressional majority will force veterans out of the system. According to actual VA projections, 1.1 million enrolled veterans would be pushed out of the system due to the enrollment fee and new drug charges. -AMVETS”http://www.congress.org/congressorg/webret...alertid=7196841
Below are some highlights from the 2006 U.S. Budget
Defense Budget 419.3 Billion (41% Increase, China is 2nd at $30 Billion)
Iraq War 81.9 Billion per year
Health & Human Services (Medicaid, Medicare 10% Decrease) 67.2 Billion
Education $56 Billion
Homeland Security 34.2 Billion
Veteran Affairs 33.4 Billion
The Tax Cuts Cost us $120 Billion A Year
SSI Trust Fund will be Exhausted in 2041. Needed for Solvency $4 Trillion
Right Now the Deficit Is $600 Billion per year/ $8 Trillion Total
Do you still believe Republicans or at least President George W. Bush is pursuing fiscally responsible policy for the American people?

Official Proceedings to Impeach President George W. Bush
Republican President George W. Bush has destroyed the economic prosperity, deficit decreases, and the Social Security Surplus created by President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore.
And when President Bush says Democrats don’t have a plan for Social Security look at what Clinton did. Keep it simple, keep the program solvent, Social Security does not need to be complicated, corrupted nor put at risk in the private sector. I don’t even see how if Congress and the President are doing their jobs why this program is not self sustainable. Our country has $300 Billion for Wars that we are loosing and we can’t pay for Medicaid and Social Security! And why did we never have a gas problem with 8 years of Democratic President Clinton but now gas prices have doubled within one year of George Bush being reelected? How can we as Americans continue to allow for someone to lead us who out right lies. I saw Bush say last year that he did not want to privatize Social Security. Come on, something is wrong here. In addition this Government Led by Bush & Cheney wont even move to provide proper Health Care services for veterans and soldiers, do you believe they will do this for all Americans? Hell No. What are the Republicans doing with our money?
Who the heck says that Republicans are more fiscally responsible? That’s a bunch of B.S. Look at the facts: Bush has done nothing to address the national deficit. We're spending more on the Wars than on needed domestic programs. We can no longer afford the War on Terrorism because of the War in Iraq. In his first term Bush cut taxes for the rich, which reduced the amount of funds coming into the government. Now on April 29th 2005 Bush gave a press conference where he continued to push fiscally irresponsible Private Accounts and another tax cut for the rich.
I do think its time to begin an official process of impeaching our president, seriously.
If President Bush and Dick Cheney want to run our nation like a corporation, than so be it. Its time to change management.
Currently I know of 1 credible movement to remove President George W. Bush from office. Please let me know if you know of others. In my opinion impeachment efforts should be centralized. 100’s of fractured movements will make no progress.

Even if you are a talking in tongues, tobacco chewing Republican cowboy you must come to the realization that enough is enough, George Bush is not pursuing an agenda that is good for our nation. If you have to work for a living you must be concerned with the direction our nation is headed. Put aside what party you belong too and do what’s right for our nation and your family. How much more can you and your family afford of these fiscally irresponsible policies? Judge a man by his actions, not his words. Bush talks the good talk but look at the agenda he is pushing. That’s all I have to say; I need more coffee.
Please take the time to write a letter and mail it to your Senator telling them you do not have confidence in President George W. Bush and would support measures to impeach him.
