“SUBVERTING OUR VERY ROOTS”

August 22, 2013

Are members of Congress loyal to the Constitution to which they swore an oath to uphold?

To the Congress of the United States of America:

It is not farmers, carpenters, bricklayers or storekeepers who create  recessions, depressions or wars. Our problems start with you the Legislative Branch of government which, by way of lobbyist groups and gerrymandering, create laws with no regard for the American people.

“In order to form a more perfect union,” you have established a platform for your own well-being. By your legislation the Constitution has become a tyrant. You are not Americans. You are Democrats and Republicans. There is no justification for your blind partisanship. Your ability to complicate the simplest of legislation is consistent with your inability to lead this country. Your philosophy on protecting the American people is flawed and inconsistent with the times. Your tolerance of those determined to exploit our weaknesses is incomprehensible. While the people go from cashing paychecks to being homeless, waiting in line for food stamps, you (Congress) turn millionaires into billionaires. Your actions stain the fabric of a democratic society.

You, with such power to do good, are instead subverting our very roots and undermining the core values of our Constitution. Our government is responsible for making sure that corporations who do business in the United States have the financial well-being of the people in mind and you have failed miserably. By way of lobbyist, you (Congress), have become lapdogs to corporate greed. You have turned a deaf ear and a blind eye and need to be reminded that you are because “We the People” allow you to be.

If “We the people” do not find ways to inflict concerns on our government and the special interest groups that it represents, our future will continue to be a struggle. When trust and faith in our political leaders are lost to fear and despair, the prospect of insurrection becomes a reality.

William Henry Nolan, Jr.

As stated by patriotsunion.org, we need to clean out the entire network of exploiters, parasites, public untrustees, Corporated Trust Law Goons, entitlement royalty, Princess Pelosi types, Harry Reid types, both GOP and DNC clans need to be flushed and a more modern version of Version 3.0 government employee selection, background, experience, purpose, agenda criteria, religious affiliation criteria and much much more has been overdue for years. We hear liberal Democrats talk about doing away with the Constitution and that it’s too old and outdated when the real problem is a dual party system that has been failing for over 45 years in waste, fraud, broken promises, kickbacks, pork barrel, buddy systems, crooked contract scams and overruns, stealing from the taxpayers, creating books of programs without voter permission, entitlement clauses, self voted pay increases for themselves, benefits beyond comprehension, inability to fight built in protection programs that protect these people from prosecution, abuse of every authority, on and on.

Very well stated. This should be posted as an ‘open letter’ to all members of Congress.
