Some will probably remember the incident, on October 16, 2013, when a House stenographer stepped to the House floor microphone and summarily chastised the entire U.S. House of Representatives.
This chastisement occurred during the final moments of the House voting on H.R. 2775, the 2014 appropriations act.
Most won't recognize that House Resolution number because the mainstream media, when talking about legislation, never mentions bill numbers. One can only concur there is a reason for that – if people don't know the bill number, they can't go look it up on the government website and read the text of the legislation for themselves, nor find out how their representatives voted. The mainstream media, being the propaganda arm of the federal government, deliberately withholds information. We should be so surprised!
Go here to see how your Senators voted on H.R. 2775.
Go here to see how your Representative voted on H.R. 2775.
All three of my U.S. representatives – Maria Cantwell (D), Patty Murray (D), and Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R), voted in favor of H.R. 2775, suspending the debt ceiling and reopening the government.
What does "suspending the debt ceiling" mean? It means that Obama and company are free to continue spending money without restraint.
With the United States Debt standing at $16,747,360,549,057.23 on October 16, 2013, Congress voted to allow Obama and company to continue spending at will.
On October 17, 2013, the national debt jumped to $17,075,590,107,963.57 – an increase of $328 billion in one day! What this really means is that while Americans were told the government was shut down, such wasn't really true; the government continued right on spending money like a drunken sailor! The only difference being that a drunken sailor can only continue drinking so long as he has money. Not so, the U.S. Government, who sees no problem with spending money it does not have.
Today – November 4, 2013, the national debt stands at $17,156,117,102,204.49, an increase of $409 billion since October 16, 2013; the increase in the last seventeen days - $81 billion!
On January 19, 2009, the day before Obama illegally took control of the Oval Office, the national debt stood at $10.6 trillion. In four years, nine months, sixteen days, the national debt has been increased by $6.6 trillion; representing a 62.3% increase. If spending continues, at the current pace, the national debt, on January 19, 2017 will be approximately $21.7 trillion, more than twice what it was in 2009 when Obama illegally took control of the Oval Office! In eight short years, Obama will have increased the national debt by more than the $10.6 trillion accumulated over the first 233 years of America's existence! And America will be far worse off for it.
Is this the act of a responsible Congress? Is this the act of people who understand that you cannot run a country for long with a debt that continues to grow, at this rate, on a daily basis?
The obvious answer to both questions is "no".
We have a man, sitting in the Oval Office, who is not the legal president of the United States, as he is not natural born as required by the United States Constitution. There is no proof, at this time, that he is even a United States citizen!
Yet our Congress has done nothing to address this situation, beyond claiming to constituents that the forged birth documents, presented by Obama and company, are legitimate. It has been proven that these documents are forgeries. Where Obama was born, when he was born, and who his father is, are all a matter of conjecture; no proof has been provided concerning any of this crucial information that should have been required before Obama was ever allowed to announce his intention to seek the presidency. Obama is a fraud; over the past five years, if nothing else has become apparent, that has.
Since assuming the White House, Obama has done everything in his power to destroy this country. And Congress has done absolutely nothing to stop him. In an e-mail sent out to constituents not long ago, Republican Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers stated:
"As a Member of Congress, I view it as my duty to help move our country forward by addressing the many problems and challenges that our nation currently faces. Many disagree with the President's policies, especially with respect to the economy. Although I disagree with his policies, I do not believe impeachment of the President would move our nation forward or get our economy back on the path to economic prosperity. Our Constitution provides voters with a mechanism every four years to determine whether the majority of Americans agree with the work of the President and his Administration."
If McMorris Rodgers disagrees with Obama's policies, why is she voting for them? It seems that McMorris Rodgers is only against Obama's policies so long as she thinks no one is watching what she is doing – one of those benefits derived from the mainstream media, in reporting, never providing bill numbers so people can go look them up, to see how their representatives are voting.
And why is she pedaling the blatantly erroneous claim that it is not the responsibility of Congress to deal with an ineligible person in the White House? This is a blatant violation of her oath of office to protect and defend the United States Constitution, including Article II, Section 1, Clause 5!
And the scandals just keep rolling in, while Congress continues to hold one hearing after the next, in the end, holding no one in the Obama White House responsible for any of the criminal conduct going on, to include …
•
the BATF movement of weapons across the Mexican border under operation
Fast and Furious;
• the IRS targeting of conservative groups;
• the IRS provided information, on conservative
groups, to government agencies in direct violation of existing law;
• the DOJ illegally acquiring reporter telephone
records;
• the DOJ soliciting information that would tend
to paint George Zimmerman as a racist;
• the DOJ refusing to prosecute the New Black
Panthers – for voter intimidation (Philadelphia), for putting
a $10,000 bounty on the death of George Zimmerman;
• the NSA spying on Americans;
• the murder of Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean
Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyronne Woods in Benghazi, Libya;
• the supplying of arms to the rebels in Syria;
rebels responsible for using chemical weapons on the Syrian people;
chemical weapons that may lead right back to Obama;
• the murder of 30 Americans, 22 of which were
Navy Seals (most belonged to Seal Team 6) in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan
in August 2011;
• the Obamacare debacle;
• the blatant and deliberate violation of U.S.
law to allow illegal aliens to remain in this country without fear of
arrest or expulsion;
• the billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars paid
to illegal aliens through the IRS;
• the use of U.S. taxpayer money to pay back
political supporters via no-bid contracts (Obamacare), and green energy
loans later defaulted on (Solyndra, for example);
• the use of drones to kill Americans and foreigners;
• the $6.6 trillion spent by Obama and company
since January 19, 2009.
We are now going on five years of this and nothing is being done about any of it; nothing is being done to stop Obama's deliberate destruction of this country.
And as Congress diddles, and fiddles, and wrings their impotent little hands, and does nothing, the anger in America grows.
Lately, Americans have taken note of the fact that Obama has been purging the military of those high ranking officers who do not agree with his policies; undoubtedly, given his hatred for America and Americans, those policies include using the U.S. military against U.S. citizens.
Americans should be very concerned. If nothing is done, and done very soon, to stop Obama, the outcome is not going to be a good one.

What can you do?
•
Pound your representatives in Washington DC relentlessly. Jam up their
telephone lines, overload their e-mail servers, keep their fax machines
running, non-stop. Do not threaten them with bodily harm! Such
is foolish and serves no constructive purpose.
• Turn off your television and boycott any company
that advertizes there as their advertizing fees pay so the mainstream
media can continue to be the propaganda arm of the U.S. government.
• The million trucker pass through Washington
DC and the million bikes through Washington DC were a good start. Actions
such as this need to get bigger, more frequent, and much louder.
Our representatives in Washington DC need to understand that their jobs are in jeopardy. The majority of Americans did not want Obama; the majority of Americans are worried about what Obama has and is doing to this country.
It is time the majority put voice to their concerns. It is time that Congress stop pandering to the minority in the name of "social justice."
