The Titanic spending bills of 2009

cap pic…Another nugget from the in-box.  Listed below are a few of the excessive, wasteful, and pork laden pieces of…. “Legislation”  that our elected representatives have voted on this year.  With the 2010 elections nearly a year away,  I urge you to take a moment to click on the links and see how they voted for yourself.   Are you being truly represented?  OR are you merely a passenger on a “runaway train”.   Yes, something stinks, and it’s not in Denmark.  There is little time to waste, and this is going to take a serious effort from good people that are accustomed to going to work, raising their families,  casting their votes and obeying the laws.  It is going to take much more than that to preserve our liberty and national sovereignty.   Volunteer, write your congressman, contribute, blog, write letters to the editor, Attend a Town Hall Meeting or Tea Party… let your voice be heard.   1802010 is dedicated to this effort.  This is the REAL Change that we can believe in!

The mid-term elections are just over a year away, and we need to do everything we can to get organized.
We are currently exploring the possibility of hosting a nationwide conference call to discuss strategy with tens of thousands of freedom-loving Americans like you.

Please take a moment to complete this short survey to let is know what you think of the idea.

Your friend,
