Send A Letter To DC, Get An FBI Visit
As we proceed through the Obama first term, situations that would only seem palpable in a Hollywood movie becomes reality as we speak.
Beginning in earnest in September of 2008 I began a campaign of letter writing to elected United States Representatives, Senators, and the White House under both President Bush and now President Obama. The tone of my correspondence has been that of a citizen who is fed up with the government for spending money we do not have, at a time when we are experiencing economic deflation, and taking control of private business, where I believe it is in violation of the constitutional rights of business owners, shareholders, and frankly every citizen of this country.
One would think this is a right. Think again…
Yesterday, as a result of one of my letters, I was paid a visit by the Joint Terrorism Task Force of the FBI. One Senator, Sheldon Whitehouse, reported to the FBI that he felt I was endangering the government and should be investigated as a suspected terrorist. This after every single one my letters was sent through the official website of the government, and contained all of my personally identifying information and was specifically stated as advising each U. S. Senator that I was offering political opinion about pending legislation, or governmental policy.
During the Bush Administration, dissent was considered a civic duty. In the Obama reign, dissent appears to be considered a possible criminal nuisance.
Remember this next year during the midterms.

Again, I am losing the will to live.

WOW makes me think twice about writting my congressman and woman…. Nevermind no it doesn’t!

I’ve stated this before, the communication thing doesn’t work with today’s “representatives”.
And that goes for both sides of the aisle (Immigration Reform, remember?).
Grass Roots organization, communicating with other voters locally, then get out there on election days and VOTE.
These narcissists inside the beltway are not equipped to be able to even read and understand written communications, nor do they consider themselves vulnerable to the citizens anymore.
Remember McCain during the immigration reform mess…

I don’t know Mac, the Amnesty Bill went down in flames once people found out about it and expressed their strong dislike of the idea. So far card-check seems to be going the same way.

We RV’d in Mexico for 2 months and came back across the border 2 weeks ago. I sort of held my breath at the border seeing if my name would pop up since I have written Speaker Botox numerous missives and also write Dear Leader now and then using the Salutation: Hey Asshole:…
No problems at the border.

Yeah, but they let anyone in at the southern border. It’s those pesky Canadians that we apparently have to worry about.

“My dissent is posted publicly daily.”

Well I am sure that I am on a list now. Bambi and his supporters sent me a spam to support one of Bambi’s ‘new’ laws. I replied back that until he had the guts to reply to my letters/e-mails questioning his policies to not spam me any more.
I have written and received replies from every president since Bush 41. Even Billy boy, whom I did not liuke, had his people respond with a for letter at least. The current presidnet can’t be bothered since I did not drink the Kool Aide.
See you all at super max.

If any or all of us are on a list somewhere, I would consider it a badge of honor.
May 28th, 2009 at 10:05 am
Badge of honor for sure! Where will they put us all when they round us all up? Well, if Obummer is heading toward Fascism, as was discussed last night on Fox, I guess concentration camps or gas camps or whatever.
Glad I have no children….

Brandon, the amnesty bill was obfuscation, the old bait and switch.
Meanwhile, the border problem continues on, bidness as usual.
