Change For A Nickel

Tuesday November 7 is a mid-term election for several Congressmen and Senators. It is important for all of us registered voters to get to the polls and do our civic duty and cast a vote for the candidate we believe represents us and our interests. If we do not vote we will end up with a Congress that is out of touch with the American people and our Congress could be..

1. One that is beholden to special interest lobbyists instead of its constituents.
2. One that does not put a check on Executive power.
3. One that is a rubber stamp for the Executive branch.
4. One that will hand over power to the Executive branch unchallenged.
5. One that believes that legislation to amend the constitution to prohibit the rights of some supersedes more pressing legislation.
6. One that fails to do basic oversight of monies that have been allocated for a military campaign.
7. One that does not take action for years when one of its members has been identified as a sexual predator.
8. One that does not balance the budget and relies on deficit spending.

Silly me. That’s the Congress we have NOW! In the last off year election (2002) only 89 million people voted. That constitutes 46% of all eligible voters. Don’t let less than 1/2 the people make the decision for you. Exercise your rights as a citizen and decide your own future.

Vote Tuesday November 7, 2006!!!
