Inhofe: U.S. headed toward revolution

08-27-2009 • The Hill

The overreaching of the federal government is pushing the U.S. towards a revolution, Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) said today. "People are not buying these concepts that are completely foreign to America," Inhofe said at a townhall in Chickasaw, Okla. "We're almost reaching a revolution in this country." Inhofe has been one of the Senate's most strident opponents of climate legislation and healthcare reform. Inhofe added that he didn't need to read the full helathcare legislation before deciding to vote against it. Public opinion and news reports, he said, provided all the information he needed. "I don't have to read it, or know what's in it," Inhofe said. "I'm going to oppose it anyways." Most of the versions of healthcare legislation making their away through congress are about 1,000 pages long.

Our Government is filled with thousands of individuals, agencies and special interest groups that feed from the tax coffers. Understand this simple fact would allow you to also understand that any major change in health care, food stamps, military education could and would affect the jobs and income they receive... That is the bottom line..money.

If you want to see the best of both republicans and democrats, the best of their ideas that will help America you the voter have to understand you are in charge and remove the very people you have been voting into office.

Take charge of America!! Vote middleamerican2010
