IT’S NOT FUNNY!

The self-serving in Washington HAS TO STOP–and WE THE PEOPLE are the ONLY ones who CAN stop it!!!
I got this email this morning from my beloved Uncle Bob, (retired Army) and it got my blood boiling.

Sending it off to 20 people is NOT enough, when it’s something this important.

The following email is uncut.

 

 

I challenge you to read this and NOT have the will to pass it on to your 20…

No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in the U.S. Military for 20 years,
risking their lives protecting freedom, and only get 50% of their pay. While
Politicians hold their political
positions in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these same men and women,
and receive full pay retirement after serving one term. It just does not make any sense.

Monday on Fox news they learned that the staffers of Congress family members are exempt from having
to pay back student loans. This will get national attention if other news networks will broadcast it.
When you add this to the below, just where will all of it stop?


35 States file lawsuit against the Federal Government

Governors of 35 states have filed suit against the Federal Government for imposing unlawful burdens upon them.
It only takes 38 (of the 50) States to convene a Constitutional Convention.

This will take less than thirty seconds to read. If you agree, please pass it on.

This is an idea that we should address.

For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress. Many citizens had no idea that
members of Congress could retire with the same pay after only one term, that they specifically exempted
themselves from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of prosecution
for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves
from the Healthcare Reform… in all of its forms. Somehow, that doesn’t seem logical. We do not have an elite
that is above the law. I truly don’t care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever.
The self-serving must stop.

If each person that receives this will forward it on to 20 people, in three days, most people in The United States
of America will have the message.. This is one proposal that really should be passed around.

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: “Congress shall make no law that applies to the
citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress
shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens
of the United States ..”

You are one of my 20+

If you feel as I feel–that the leaders of this country have taken advantage of their positions to further their own personal agenda’s at the price of the American people, then get this message to others. Show them this article, tweet it, Facebook it and let’s use the media to put the pressure on those who claim to serve the people!
