Four Months and Counting

One of my favorite blogs is Mike’s America, http://mikesamerica.blogspot.com/. Mike’s most recent post is an open letter to his conservative friends. This is an important message for all of us, Republican and Democrat. It is about taking America back from the abyss.

In approximately four months, Americans will go to the polls for the Congressional midterm elections. This may be the most important election in the history of the USA. It may also be our last chance to stop the reckless and irresponsible Obama policies from advancing any further. If we fail to take either the House or the Senate, Mr. Obama will be free to launch his next assault on our freedom with the largest tax increase this nation has ever seen. Mr. Obama’s administration has already begun laying the groundwork for those tax increases with the appointment of the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility.

The coming tax increases will take a huge bite out of our wallet, drive our economy deeper into a hole, and drain what remaining energy is left in our United State of America. What’s it worth to you to stop that from happening?

Mike was a former aide in the Reagan White House Office of Political Affairs. One of his jobs was to work on supporting candidates for office from a list of targeted races. He has again developed such a list for the upcoming U.S. Senate races for this fall’s elections. It will take everything we have to retake the Senate but it is not impossible. Please consider supporting the fine candidates on this list who could help us regain control and effectively block the worst of Obama’s excesses. A list of targeted House races will be published later this month in Mike’s America.

Support Independent Efforts

Please consider supporting independent efforts like the Mike’s America. These blogs represent the voice of free America. Most of these bloggers bring to the table a wealth of experience, knowledge and concern. They represent a unique resource for likeminded conservatives that provide the latest political videos and news along with political analysis and a wealth of in-depth information that would be difficult to find without the vast resources of the internet.

Here’s one example of the scope of Mike’s America’s outreach: he recently published a poll asking his readers: When it comes to managing a disaster or crisis, who does a better job, Bush or Obama? Feel free to follow this link and vote. While there, note the poll results tab that show the geographic distribution of those voting. Here’s the map:

When it comes to managing a disaster or crisis, who does a better job, Bush or Obama?

Notice that this simple poll is reaching readers in nearly all of the lower 48 states. And the number of overall readers is much higher.

As an example of the kind of in-depth information readers may find at Mike's America consider this: Did you see the news that despite Obama’s oft repeated promise that “if you like your current health care plan you can keep it” an internal Administration report implementing Obama's health care reform describes how more than 50% of those currently enrolled in private insurance may soon find themselves shifted to a government approved plan? Wouldn’t that be something you might like to share with a wavering or former Obama voter? The full story was posted here. This link to the actual report (see page 50). No right wing propaganda there! Just the facts. The propaganda will be added later!

I may not be able to fix stupid, but I don’t have to reelect it!
