Dear Republican Lawmakers (especially those just elected in on Tuesday Nov 5, 2010):
Tuesday November 5, 2010, is a day that will live in infamy - if you fail to act on the opportunity provided to you by the American people. It is also President Arthur's birthday if you were unaware.
It is a day to be ever so happy and work to bring everyone together and hug and sing kumbaya ... but you will be given eviction papers in two years if that is the path you take. I promise.
It is a day to turn to the left and follow the plan Obama has laid out for us ... and if you do, the Republican party will self-destruct, and you will be evicted in 2012.
You have been given a solemn responsibility, and no matter what Keith Obermann, Maureen Dowd, Frank Rich, the NPR staff, or the Huffington woman say, it is a political earthquake. Given the fact that Obama won by an amazing percent, with a majority of Americans solidly behind him - this election will show they have left him standing with the 32% who think he is too moderate, and have returned to a party they know will not abandon them to a world run amok. Yet just as fleeting as Obama's charisma, will be your jobs if you fail to act - use the political power the people have given you to drive a stake through Obama's medical plan. Provide your own version, one that allows for no government clearinghouse, does not force anyone to do anything they do not wish to do, and does not tax us (fine, penalize, punish) if we do not subscribe to his offer. Drive a stake through Obamacare, and then do the best you can to drive a stake through his other financial plans, all the while, offering a reasonable plan to replace what he has injected into the system. Keep your word when you tell us you will make the bills available online, make a promise and keep it. If you don't, in 2012 you will all lose your jobs, and Obama's minions will be back to drive a stake through your hearts - and dear Republicans, it will be entirely your fault we will fail, for you have been given this responsibility - do not mess up.
Weed out your numbers - eliminate those with serious problems in their personal lives, and do so now, or you will lose in 2012 and what follows will be your responsibility.
Keep your word, don't lie, don't obfuscate, don't manipulate, and don't capitulate - the reigns of power are being turned over to you. A House (tax branch) under your control, a Senate that will either be divided down the center (with 1-2 Democrats who will stand with Republicans on any military issue requiring you to convince 1-2 others and you have the majority) or a Senate that would only need 1 Democrat to flip and or side with Republicans. Great power and great responsibility. Do not mess up.
Do not start shaking hands with Democrats. For nearly a year what we heard from Obama was 'get over it, we won' ... it does not mean you should be as crass and juvenile, but it does not mean you allow Democrats to retain their chairmanships until January. The election is the change, and they did it to you in 2008 - it is time to take back the reigns. If you fail to do so - it will be noted.
We are living in two Americas and while many Democrats are as patriotic and impassioned about our future as any Republican, there is a sizable minority who do not care for our country, our future, or what we have done for the world - they look at what they want to do, not what we have done ... they are a problem and you better recognize it because they will work every second to destroying you, the power you hold, and our future, and if they succeed, it will be because you messed it up. If you mess it up, you will not be given another chance.
We sit today on a precipice and what happens in the next 28 months will decide which we we go.
