545 vs 300,000,000 People

[Kathryn Ball]

 

This has been around but is worth reading again.

When you really THINK about this information I am sure that you will find, as I did, that we really ARE a nation of Hapless Sheeple!

545 people who supposedly "serve at the consent of the governed" are responsible for the state we currently find ourselves to be in......we are being BULLIED by 545 men and women who, because of their ARROGANCE and perception of themselves as being so much 'better' than the rest of the fools who continue to place their trust in them.

Washington DC is BROKEN...it is beyond repair. It is up to all of us who cherich our liberty and God given rights to start not with Washington DC but first with our families. Talk with your children and grandchildren about living moral, decent lives. Monitor their TV viewing, their music choices and explain WHY you don't want them to listen to songs that glorify rape, murder and heaven knows what else. Those things DESENSITIZE our moral compasses and allow moral relativism rather than conviction.

Then we need to talk to friends, relatives etc......

Changing and returning to our founding principles has GOT to begin within ourselves, our families and our communities....if we can do THAT, those 545 who serve will, indeed SERVE rather than dictate, they will have no other choice.

God Bless....Kate

 

545 vs. 300,000,000 People
-By Charlie Reese

Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.

Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?

You and I don't propose a federal budget. The President does.

You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does.

You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.

You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.

You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.

I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank.

I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a President to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.

Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.

What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits.. ( The President can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.)

The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes. Who is the speaker of the House?( John Boehner. He is the leader of the majority party. He and fellow House members, not the President, can approve any budget they want. ) If the President vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to. [The House has passed a budget but the Senate has not approved a budget in over three years. The President's proposed budgets have gotten almost unanimous rejections in the Senate in that time. ]

It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.

If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.

If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.

If the Army & Marines are in Iraq and Afghanistan it's because they want them in Iraq and Afghanistan ...

If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.

There are no insoluble government problems.

Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.

Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.

Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible. They, and they alone, have the power.

They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses. Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees... We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!

This might be funny if it weren't so true.

We know of course that the theft of our nation involves the 545 corrupted politicians who change faces on a revolving time table but there are thousands of accomplices who actually suck the blood from We the People.

Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, said the LORD of hosts.

Zechariah 4:6

We do all we can do, but ultimately, the battle belongs to our Lord and Savior. It is, in fact, spiritual warfare taht we are engaged in.

I agree......about the U.N.. As for Obama's creds I wouldn't be surprised if he was created in a lab, nor would I care.

My point is that there is NOTHING we can do about DC....we need to get our lives in order closer to home.

Thank you for the friendship request.
