Open Forum - In or Out 2010: The 5 Pledges ET2 James T. Lillard - Wed Sep 02, 2009 9:15 pm Post subject: In or Out 2010: The 5 Pledges
This is a request that you write to the Congressman and Senators of your state and ask them to commit to the five principles below:
1. I believe in a balanced budget and therefore will vote for a freeze in government spending until that goal is realized.
2. I believe government should not increase the financial burden on its citizenry during difficult economic times therefore I will oppose ALL tax increases until our economy has rebounded.
3. I believe more than four decades of U.S. dependence on foreign oil is a travesty, therefore I will support an energy plan that calls for immediately increasing usage of all domestic resources including nuclear energy, natural gas, and coal as necessary.
4. I believe in the sovereignty and security of our country and therefore support measures to close our borders except for designated immigration points so we will know who is entering and why and I vehemently oppose any measure giving another country, the United Nations, or any other entity, power over U.S. citizens.
5. I believe the United States of America is the greatest country on earth and therefore will not apologize for policies or actions which have served to free more and feed more people around the world than any other nation on the planet in history.
They are either IN or they are OUT. travispritchett - Wed Sep 09, 2009 9:41 pm Post subject:
