Cut and paste this letter to Obama  6/30/2010

President Barack Obama
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue,
Washington, DC 20500

Dear President Obama,

We were outraged to learn you are considering amnestying illegal aliens by executive order! If you have any respect for the American people, you will not follow through on this plan.

Sen. Grassley's letter makes it clear that your administration is considering the use of executive actions to amnesty the 12 to 18 million illegal aliens living in the United States -- including those "who have willfully overstayed their visas or filed for benefits knowing that they will not be eligible for a status for years to come."

15 million Americans are out of work at a time when 8 million illegal aliens have jobs. If Sen. Grassley's information is correct, you clearly have no respect for these unemployed Americans and cannot be bothered with their plight. Millions of American families are having trouble paying their mortgage and putting food on the table, but you seem to be more concerned with pardoning individuals who have stolen American jobs and broken American laws.

Unable to comprehend your actions,

Feeling Unrepresented;

Take a look and see where this Doctor’s Position on Ben Nelson.  Apparently this Doctor fell off the Ben Nelson fan wagon.  She really lets him have it.  I'll bet this is the way a lot of Nebraskans feel after Nelson's purchase.  I'll also bet she is correct about the abortion issue.  He just wanted to look good but ended up looking ridiculous!!

A physician’s view of the last minute vote buying.

Dear Senator Nelson:
 

I send this message under “Tort Reform”, because the current monstrosity you have pledged your support to says nothing whatsoever about Tort Reform. You have sold the physicians of Nebraska for zilch (zilch for us, but beaucoup federal bucks for you and the liberal partisans in this state).

As a family practice physician in Small Town, Nebraska, I was counting on you to be the lone voice of Democratic sanity on this issue, but you sold me out. I will dedicate every spare minute of my time and every spare dollar I have to defeating you, should you run for re-election.  The long hours I spent on my medical education and the long hours I spend treating my patients are nothing but chump change to you and your Democrat colleagues in Washington. I especially can’t wait for your equivocation and milquetoast evasion when your “compromises” on the abortion language in the bill are silently erased or quietly (on-little-legislative-cat’s-feet) eviscerated in the House/Senate give-and-take.  Go on: Bet me that you won’t wuss-out on this issue!
 

I know you won’t give two-seconds to this letter, but I had to write it.  I’m a primary care doctor in YOUR state, and you sold me out. I didn’t slog through 4 years of college and 4 years of medical school and 3 years of residency just to have you hand my career and my patient/doctor relationships over to government lifers. Your gutless acquiescence to Obama and Harry Reid and ‘Nanny’ Pelosi will NOT be forgotten.
 

Thank you, Ben, for forcing doctors like me to earn less than the repairmen who fix our appliances. Case in point:  We recently had our dishwasher fixed. The repairman who came to our house charged $65 just to come and ‘diagnose’ the problem, then charged another $180 to ‘fix’ the problem.  You and your fellow lawmakers have fixed MY going rate (Medicare) at $35 per-visit.  Thank you for securing such a ‘lucrative’ rate for me! Thank you so much for making me–someone with 8 years of education – make less than a mechanic or appliance repair technician.  And thanks especially for falling in line with Obama and the rest of the Democrats to make such a socialist system permanent.

You have my disgust and disdain forever, you socialist-coddling coward.

Sincerely,

Becky F. Hollibaugh, D.O.;

********************

This is very interesting!  You probably never thought about it this way.
 
Perhaps this is why so many physicians are conservatives or Republicans.

The Lawyers' PartyBy Bruce Walker

The Democratic Party has become the Lawyers’ Party . 

Barack Obama is a lawyer.

Michelle Obama is a lawyer.

Hillary Clinton is a lawyer. 

Bill Clinton is a lawyer.

John Edwards is a lawyer. 

Elizabeth Edwards is a lawyer.

Every Democrat nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate).

Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since 1976, except for Lloyd Bentsen, went to law school.

Look at leaders of the Democrat Party in Congress: 

Harry Reid is a lawyer. 

Nancy Pelosi is a lawyer.

 

The Republican Party is different. 

President Bush is a businessman. 

Vice President Cheney is a businessman.

The leaders of the Republican Revolution: 

Newt Gingrich was a history professor.

Tom Delay was an exterminator. Dick Armey was an economist. 

House Minority Leader Boehner was a plastic manufacturer. 

The former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is a heart surgeon.

Who was the last Republican president who was a lawyer? Gerald Ford, who left office 31 years ago and who barely won the Republican nomination as a sitting president, running against Ronald Reagan in 1976. 

The Republican Party is made up of real people doing real work, who are often the targets of lawyers.

The Democrat Party is made up of lawyers.  Democrats mock and scorn men who create wealth, like Bush and Cheney, or who heal the sick, like Frist, or who immerse themselves in history, like Gingrich.

 

The Lawyers’ Party sees these sorts of people, who provide goods and services that people want, as the enemies of America .  And, so we have seen the procession of official enemies, in the eyes of the Lawyers’ Party, grow..

 

Against whom do Hillary and Obama rail?  Pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, hospitals, manufacturers, fast food restaurant chains, large retail businesses, bankers, and anyone producing anything of value in our nation.

 

This is the natural consequence of viewing everything through the eyes of lawyers. 

Lawyers solve problems by successfully representing their clients, in this case the American people. 

Lawyers seek to have new laws passed, they seek to win lawsuits, they press appellate courts to overturn precedent, and lawyers always parse language to favor their side.

 

Confined to the narrow practice of law, that is fine.  But it is an awful way to govern a great nation. 

When politicians as lawyers begin to view some Americans as clients and other Americans as opposing parties, then the role of the legal system in our life becomes all-consuming.  Some Americans become “adverse parties” of our very government.  We are not all litigants in some vast social class-action suit.  We are citizens of a republic that promises us a great deal of freedom from laws, from courts, and from lawyers.

 

Today, we are drowning in laws; we are contorted by judicial decisions; we are driven to distraction by omnipresent lawyers in all parts of our once private lives.   America  has a place for laws and lawyers, but that place is modest and reasonable, not vast and unchecked.  When the most important decision for our next president is whom he will appoint to the Supreme Court, the role of lawyers and the law in  America  is too big.  When lawyers use criminal prosecution as a continuation of politics by other means, as happened in the lynching of Scooter Libby and Tom Delay, then the power of lawyers in America is too great.  When House Democrats sue  America  in order to hamstring our efforts to learn what our enemies are planning to do to us, then the role of litigation in  America  has become crushing.

 

We cannot expect the Lawyers’ Party to provide real change, real reform or real hope in America Most Americans know that a republic in which every major government action must be blessed by nine unelected judges is not what  Washington intended in 1789.  Most Americans grasp that we cannot fight a war when ACLU lawsuits snap at the heels of our defenders.  Most Americans intuit that more lawyers and judges will not restore declining moral values or spark the spirit of enterprise in our economy..

 

Perhaps Americans will understand that change cannot be brought to our nation by those lawyers who already largely dictate American society and business.  Perhaps Americans will see that hope does not come from the mouths of lawyers but from personal dreams nourished by hard work.  Perhaps Americans will embrace the truth that more lawyers with more power will only make our problems worse.

 

The  United States  has 5% of the world’s population and 66% of the world’s lawyers! Tort (Legal) reform legislation has been introduced in congress several times in the last several years to limit punitive damages in ridiculous lawsuits such as “spilling hot coffee on yourself and suing the establishment that sold it to you” and also to limit punitive damages in hugemedical malpractice lawsuits. This legislation has continually been blocked from even being voted on by the Democrat Party. When you see that 97% of the political contributions from the American Trial Lawyers Association goes to the Democrat Party, then you realize who is responsible for our medical and product costs being so high!

The disillusionment on the Internet is becoming increasingly repetitive - the country's backbone is waking up. 
Will they listen?  Or do we have to embrace the radicals she mentions?
 
 

This was sent to Mr. Rand who is the Executive Director of AARP.

Dear Mr. Rand,   

 

 Recently you sent us a letter encouraging us to renew our lapsed membership in AARP by the requested date. I know it is not what you were looking for, but this is the most honest response I can give you. Our gap in coverage is merely a microscopic symptom of the real problem, a deepening lack of faith. 

 

While we have proudly maintained our membership for several years and have long admired the AARP goals and principles, regrettably, we can no longer endorse it's abdication of our values. Your letter specifically stated that we can count on AARP to speak up for our rights, yet the voice we hear is not ours. Your offer of being kept up to date on important issues through DIVIDED WE FAIL presents neither an impartial view nor the one we have come to embrace. We do believe that when two parties agree all the time on everything presented to them, one is probably not necessary. But, when the opinions and long term goals are diametrically opposed, the divorce is imminent. This is the philosophy which spawned our 200 years of government.     

 

 Once upon a time, we looked forward to being part of the senior demographic. We also looked to AARP to provide certain benefits and give our voice a power we could not possibly hope to achieve on our own. AARP gave us a sense of belonging which we no longer enjoy. The Socialist politics practiced by the Obama administration and empowered by AARP serves only to raise the blood pressure my medical insurance strives to contain. Clearly a conflict of interest there! 

   

 We do not understand the AARP posture, feel greatly betrayed by the guiding forces that we expected to map out our senior years and leave your ranks with a great sense of regret. We mitigate that disappointment with the relief of knowing that we are not contributing to the problem anymore by renewing our membership. There are numerous other organizations which offer discounts without threatening our way of life or offending our sensibilities.     

  

This Presidential Administration scares the living daylights out of us. Not just for ourselves, but for our proud and bloodstained heritage. But even more importantly for our children and grandchildren.  Washington has rendered Soylent Green a prophetic cautionary tale rather than a nonfiction scare tactic. I have never in my life endorsed any militant or radical groups, yet now I find myself listening to them. I don't have to agree with them to appreciate the fear which birthed their existence. Their borderline insanity presents little more than a balance to the voice of the Socialist mindset in power. Perhaps I became American by a great stroke of luck in some cosmic uterine lottery, but in my adulthood I CHOOSE to embrace it and nurture the freedoms it represents as well as the responsibilities it requires.     

  

Your website generously offers us the opportunity to receive all communication in Spanish. ARE YOU KIDDING??? Someone has broken into our 'house', invaded our home without our invitation or consent. The President has insisted we keep the perpetrator in comfort and learn the perp language so we can communicate our reluctant welcome to them.  

   

I DON'T choose to welcome them.   I DON'T choose to support them.    I DON'T choose to educate them.    I DON'T choose to medicate them, pay for their food or clothing.  

American home invaders get arrested.   

 Please explain to me why foreign lawbreakers can enjoy privileges on American soil that Americans do not get?    

  

Why do some immigrants have to play the game to be welcomed and others only have to break & enter to be welcomed? 

  

We travel for a living. Walt hauls horses all over this great country, averaging over 10,000 miles a month when he is out there. He meets more people than a politician on caffeine overdose. Of all the many good folks he enjoyed on this last 10,000 miles, this trip yielded only ONE supporter of the current administration. One of us is out of touch with mainstream America. Since our poll is conducted without funding, I have more faith in it than one which is power driven.     

  

We have decided to forward this to everyone on our mailing list, and will encourage them to do the same. With several hundred in my address book, I have every faith that the eventual exponential factor will make a credible statement to you.   

  

I am disappointed as hell.  I am scared as hell.  I am MAD as hell, and I'm NOT going to take it anymore!
