On a tip from Robert Sweet

 I think this is a GREAT letter and sure took some moxie to write it.

Good thing we have some really brave people still around.

 FYI, this has been checked via Snopes, who contacted Mr. Guthrie, who confirmed he did indeed write & send this letter to Ms. Pelosi.  His credentials are impressive!

Dear Ms. Pelosi:

I write to you out of utter disdain! You are as despicable and un-American as the traitor Jane Fonda.

I am a soon to be 65 year-old who has voted in every state and local election since 1966. I have voted for both Republicans and Democrats alike. I have worked on campaigns for both Republicans and Democrats, white and black. I served the country that I love in Vietnam, as my son did in the Middle East. I was awarded two bronze stars. I have been involved in politics since age 6 when my father was campaign manager for a truly great American Congressman, Charles Raper Jonas, who worked for his constituents and his country, and was to be admired, unlike you.

You obviously havent read the Constitution recently, if ever, the Federalist Papers, or even David McCulloughs book on John Adams. You ought to take the time while riding around in your government provided luxury executive jet to do just that. You represent Socialistic and even Marxist principals that our founding fathers tried to avoid when setting out the capitalistic republican form of government represented by our Constitution.

 I find it interesting that you and your husband are multi-millionaires with much of your fortune being made as a result of your public service. You have controlled legislation that has enhanced your husbands investments both on and off shore. At the same time you redistributed the wealth of others. Our system of a free market economy is being destroyed by the likes of you, Harry Reid, and now our President. You ride around in a Gulfstream airplane at the tax payers expense while criticizing the presidents of companies who produced something for the economy. You add nothing to the economy of the United States; you only subtract therefrom. 

I would like to suggest that you return to the city of fruitcakes and nuts and eat your husbands canned tuna and pineapple produced by illegal immigrants and by workers who have been excluded from the protection that 90% of the legal workers in the United States have.

I await your defeat in the next election with glee.

 Dont ever use the term un-American again for protesters who love this country and are exercising their rights upon which this country was founded. By the way, while I served in the Army, I was spit on by the same type of lunatics who support you and who you probably supported in the 60s and 70s. You are an embarrassment to all of us who served so that you would have the protected right of free speech to call us un-American. But at the same time, I have the right to write you to notify you that I consider you to be un-American, as do the majority of the people of this formerly great country. You are a true disgrace to most of the people who served this country by offering themselves for public service in the United States Congress.

 

I feel certain your aides will not share this letter with you, but I intend to share it with many.

Let's help this man fulfill his 'commitment' to Pelosi

by forwarding his thoughts to everyone in your address book!

Star Trek X The Search For Leadership

Have you ever got the feeling someone shoved a SanDisk thumb drive up the Democrats asses and when you press their nose this comes out...Its a Tea Party downgrade?

Star Trek X The Search For Leadership

Scare tactics backfire into a financial downgrade

The old adage.. actions speak louder then words... is true. But when the rhetoric is composed of words like:

 Armageddon, default, debt crisis, withholding social security checks, financial meltdown, etc, 





 combined with not following one directive from the Simpson-Bowles Commission (appointed by Obama) and throw in the Cut-Cap & Balance Bill presented by the House, dismissed by Democrats, is the reason we had downgrade. 

In roughly 31 months in office this guy has raised the debt ceiling 40%. After the debt ceiling bill passed we are looking at another $2.4 trillion added to the debt, the highest in the history of the country!

When Bush left office the national debt was $10.7 trillion. How much of that was related directly or indirectly to 911 I don't know. Nevertheless it was a staggering amount and if we were downgraded then I couldn't come up with a compelling argument against it.

Since March 1962, the debt ceiling has been raised 74 times, according to the Congressional Research Service. Both parties are to blame.

Why does Congress even bother to set a debt limit? In theory, the limit is supposed to help Congress control spending. In reality, it doesn't.

Every time the debt limit needs to be raised, lawmakers and the president are forced to take stock of the country's fiscal direction, which isn't a bad thing necessarily.

But the decision about how high to set the ceiling is divorced from lawmakers' decisions to pass spending hikes and tax cuts. It's also made after the fact, so it doesn't do much to pull in the purse strings.

That's why budget experts say it would be better to tie the debt limit decision to lawmakers' legislative actions.

That's why we need a balanced budget amendment..NOW!

Proving once again this administration has no clue.

Is it they can't see a problem, or they don't want to see it?

President Obama's approval ratings are so low now, Kenyans are accusing him of being born in the United States.

I Killed Bin Laden

A $50 – $75 million re-election campaign commercial for Barack Obama.

Check the release date of the movie. Must be just a coincidence?

Rep. King Wants Probe of Administration Help for Osama Movie

The Republican chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee wants the Pentagon and CIA to investigate reports that the Obama administration gave Hollywood filmmakers special early access to classified information on the military raid that led to Osama bin Laden's death.

The movie is reportedly due for release in October 2012, which Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., notes is just a month before next year's elections.

(EVEN THAT WON'T SAVE HIM) 

In a letter to Defense Department Inspector General Gordon Heddell and CIA Inspector General David Buckley, King cites an August 6 New York Times report that Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc. and movie director Kathryn Bigelow received "top-level access to the most classified mission in history" to produce a movie about the raid.

King argues that too many leaks of classified information regarding the raid already have occurred, citing reports of arrests of Pakistanis believed by local authorities to have assisted the CIA in the May 1 raid.

King wrote that participation by military and CIA officials in making a film about the raid is bound to increase such leaks and undermine the organizations' hard-won reputations as "quiet professionals" − reputations important for their continued operational success."

"And, the success of these organizations is vital to our continued homeland security," King said in the letter dated Tuesday but publicly released on Wednesday.

King also argued that the administration's "first duty" in declassifying material is to provide full reporting to Congress and the American people, in an effort to build public trust through transparency of government. 

"In contrast, this alleged collaboration belies a desire of transparency in favor of a cinematographic view of history," King said.

Among the questions King wants answered are: What consultations occurred among White House, Defense, and CIA officials on the idea of giving access to filmmakers, and will the film be submitted to the military and CIA for "pre-publication review?"

White House press secretary Jay Carney, during a briefing with reporters on Wednesday, dismissed King's assertions as "ridiculous."

"When people -- including you -- in this room are working on articles, books, documentaries, or movies that involve the president and ask to speak to an administration official, we do our best to accommodate them to make sure the facts are correct," Carney said. "That is hardly a novel approach to the media. We do not discuss classified information."

Carney also noted the challenges of fighting terrorism and said he hoped King's committee "would have more important things to discuss than a movie."

To borrow a line from Dennis Miller:

This guy is shakier then Mel Gibson at a Bar Mitzvah during an earthquake.
