DEMOCRATS: LIKE LAMBS TO THE SLAUGHTER IN 2010 & 2012

Despite the growing public discontent to the way Democrats are handling Healthcare Reform, Speaker Pelosi, Senator Reid and President Obama keep marching on. On October 26, 2009, in a Rasmussen poll, only 45% of the public support it, while 55% oppose it. Our country was promised transparency, but the whole deliberation has been secretive, biased, rushed, and disorganized.

The American Public must smell a rat… it seems like twice a day a different Bill is presented. Recently, Pelosi tried to change the name of the “Public Option” to a “Competitive Option.” [We guess she didn’t think we would notice]. Just last week, Senator Reid split the Bill to make it appear more cost-effective because President Obama did not want to see a Bill come in with an estimate over $1 Trillion because it scared the American people. [With Obama's excessive spending he has TRIPLED the NATIONAL DEBT over last year]. –So Senator Reid divided the Bill into 2 parts to give the illusion of saving money. One part addresses Medicare for $250 Billion and the latest House Plan is 1990 pages coming in around $900 Billion. [The last time we checked $250 Billion + $900 Billion =$1.15 Trillion]. Keep in mind, neither plan has been scored yet by the CBO, so more Amendments will be added, thus increasing the cost.

According to Rasmussen, only 33% believe Obama is taking the country in the right direction. --And the immediate irony of this is that Pelosi has a personal approval rating of 34% and Reid has one of 28%. Both Reid and Pelosi are in serious jeopardy of losing their seats in 2010 because of their lack of accountability to THE PEOPLE. No matter how much the American public reject major Healthcare reform, the more Pelosi and Reid are attempting to shove the Bill down our throats. [NOTE: As of now, Reid can’t even get the 60 votes necessary to take up the Healthcare debate in the Senate, so he plans on using a “nuclear option” to get around that. We guess he’ll do anything to pass unwanted Healthcare Reform…even if it means tearing up the Constitution.

No wonder why the public is against this Bill when are our Representatives are so deceptive. This is NOT what our FOUNDERS intended when they created a Republic with a limited Government.

COMPASSION: Conservative vs. Liberal

Compassion is supposed to be altruistic? It is to be voluntary. It is to be genuine. Let’s take up the debate of the poor, taxation, and the right to healthcare. It is often perceived that Liberals represent the poor, but all evidence points to the contrary. Well, let’s look at the following. Arthur C. Brooks, a professor at Syracuse University, published "Who Really Cares: The Surprising Truth About Compassionate Conservatism. After studying that “although liberal families' incomes average 6 percent higher than those of conservative families, conservative-headed households give, on average, 30 percent more to charity than the average liberal-headed household ($1,600 per year vs. $1,227).”

Why has the Liberal chosen to give less, but vote to force the Conservative to be taxed more to support healthcare (and their other social programs)? Why do Liberals frame Conservatives as “the rich,” when we know that is a false statement? Maybe the argument should be, the IRS let’s an individual over- pay on their taxes, why not voluntarily give when no one’s looking? Why not have a voluntary section on our tax form to set aside a given account just for the uninsured? Why not have a National Referendum on healthcare? Why does the Liberal want to force others through the threat of imprisonment to pay higher taxes, when they, themselves, don’t voluntarily give as much?

Maybe Liberals are not as genuine or altruistic as they want the public to think they are. Maybe the argument is more about POWER than the gift of compassion!

TFR ENDORSES DOUG HOFFMAN

The Founding Revival endorses Independent candidate, Doug Hoffman, in New York’s 23rd Congressional Race over Democrat Bill Owens and Republican Dede Scozzafava.

Where many of the staff at the TFR likes Mr. Hoffman’s Conservative politics, TFR’s consensus endorsement is derived from Hoffman’s genuine and straight forward ideals. It makes one wonder when Candidate Owens, a Democrat, sits to the RIGHT of the Republican candidate, Scozzafava.

Many, many, moons ago, as a Freshman in college, I was mentored by a Senior that has gone on to become one of the most well respected economists in the world. He had given me advice that I had taken with me and expanded upon in both my personal and professional life. Amongst his advice was…

1. Recognize your past and learn from it
2. Be your own man.
3. Don’t try to fit in.
4. Know the facts and speak confidently about them
5. Have no regrets
6. Character is everything
7. Wear your convictions like a badge of honor
8. Thank God & follow the Golden Rule
9. Own your actions and words.
10. Give back

Well, when you run across an organization that thinks like you, then you have the option to join it. But, know coming in, don’t change your ideals for them. And if they change, you can leave without regret. Well, in Mr. Hoffman’s case, he found himself to be Conservative, but the Republican Party (until recently had the perception of being Conservative) did not accept him and supported the Republican that had Liberal views. So in Mr. Hoffman’s case, he chose to be his own man and not sacrifice his beliefs to fit into a Republican party that was more interested in a name than his conservative beliefs.

You see, Mr. Hoffman has strong convictions and is running for Congress because he knows who he is, what he believes in, where he came from, and who he wants to represent.

Simply, Mr. Hoffman gives new meaning “to vote for the man…and not the Party.”

WAS ACORN REALLY DEFUNDED?

This is why the American public has come to mistrust politicians and why the popularity of President Obama and this Congress is falling like a rock. When THE PEOPLE find out that ACORN was really only defunded for 31 days (October 1-31), there should be a political coup in November 2010. This is the same ACORN that Obama represented. --The same ACORN being sued in multiple States for voter fraud. --And yes, the very same ACORN found on tape aiding criminal activities such as prostitution, underage sex, illegal immigration, tax fraud, etc.

What really happened? The American public thought justice was bestowed October 1 when both Houses of Congress defunded ACORN, instead, justice resembled more of a "timeout" than a permanent financial penalty. According to Byron York, at the Washington Examiner, “what they (Congress) actually did was bar lawmakers and federal agencies from giving any money to the community organizing group for the duration of the temporary budget agreement, or continuing resolution, that was in effect at the time. Continuing resolutions are used to extend federal spending, and keep the government running, when Congress can't agree on appropriations bills for the fiscal year. When the congressional defunding of ACORN went into effect on October 1, there was a continuing resolution in place that would last until October 31.”

So will Congress continue to deny ACORN of Federal funds? We, at TFR, can’t imagine this ban will be renewed any longer than a few more months (when Congress feels the public will forget about ACORN's misappropriate behavior). ACORN almost exclusively works for the Democratic Party. [NOTE: It is illegal to take Federal funds and proactively work to elect officials, but ACORN does it anyway]. And Congress and Obama will need all the support they can gather in 2010 due to how un-popular Obama’s polices are.

Now we wonder why there is so much voter apathy when injustices like this keep happening.
