Don't Let President Obama Shift Costs of Care to Wounded Veterans
March 17, 2009 | Share with Friends
Dear Raul,
In the midst of these tough economic times, President Obama has found a unique source of revenue: wounded veterans.
The president has proposed a plan that will force veterans to pay for their own treatment of injuries and disabilities resulting from military service to help fund his massive expansion of government spending. Under the plan, the Department of Veterans Affairs would generate revenue by billing veterans' private health insurance providers.
We have a moral obligation to care for those who have been harmed while serving to protect us; not exploit them for cash.
Petition to President Obama on Care for Wounded Veterans
Sincerely,
Tony Perkins
Here is an amendment to Jackie's e-mail. If you all watched and remember the e-mail I sent you all last week, 19th, about the Thomas Paine's "youtube" video, I watch the man who portrayed Thomas Paine on Glenn Beck last week and he is saying that Washington DC is and will be throwing away all tea bags because they fear of toxic materials within the envelopes. What he's saying now is to send the tag AND string of the tea bag to still make our point.
I now urge you to read Jackie's e-mail.............and Thanks for your time......Raulie
PS this is a time in our lives where "TOGETHER WE STAND OR DIVIDED WE FALL"

Make your voice heard with a TEA BAG
************************************************************************
Tea Bags There's a storm abrewin'. What happens when good,
responsible people keep quiet? Washington has forgotten they work
for us. We don't work for them. Throwing good money after bad is NOT
the answer. I am sick of the midnight, closed door sessions to come up
with a plan. I am sick of Congress raking CEO's over the coals while they,
themselves, have defaulted on their taxes. I am sick of the bailed out
companies having lavish vacations and retreats on my dollar. I am sick
of being told it is MY responsibility to rescue people that, knowingly, bought
more house than they could afford. I am sick of being made to feel it is my
patriotic duty to pay MORE taxes. I, like all of you, am a responsible citizen.
I pay my taxes. I live on a budget and I don't ask someone else to carry the
burden for poor decisions I may make. I have emailed my congressmen and
senators asking them to NOT vote for the stimulus package as it was written
without reading it first. No one listened. They voted for it, pork and all.
O.K. folks, here it is. You may think you are just one voice and what you think
won't make a difference. Well, yes it will and YES, WE CAN!! If you are
disgusted and angry with the way Washington is handling our taxes. If you
are fearful of the fallout from the reckless spending of BILLIONS to bailout
and "stimulate" without accountability and responsibility then we need to
become ONE, LOUD VOICE THAT CAN BE HEARD FROM EVERY CITY,
TOWN, SUBURB AND HOME IN AMERICA. There is a growing protest to
demand that Congress, the President and his cabinet LISTEN to us, the
American Citizens. What is being done in Washington is NOT the way
to handle the economic free fall.
So, here's the plan. On April 1, 2009, all Americans are asked to send
a TEABAG to Washington, D.C. You do not have to enclose a note or any
other information unless you so desire. Just a TEABAG. Many cities are organizing
protests. If you simply search, "New American Tea Party", several sites will come up
. If you aren't the 'protester' type, simply make your one voice heard with a TEABAG
Your one voice will become a roar when joined with millions of others that feel the
same way. Yes, something needs to be done but the lack of confidence as shown
by the steady decline in the stock market speaks volumes.
This was not my idea. I visited the sites of the 'New American Tea Party' and an
online survey showed over 90% of thousands said they would send the teabag
on April 1. Why, April 1?? We want them to reach Washington by April 15. Will
you do it? I will.
Send it to; 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, D.C. 20500.
Forward this to everyone in your address book. Visit the website below for
more information about the 'New American Tea Party'. I would encourage
everyone to go ahead and get the envelope ready to mail, then just drop it
in the mail April 1. Can't guarantee what the postage will be by then, it is going
up as we speak, but have your envelope ready. What will this cost you?
*A little time and a 40 something cent stamp & don't forget the TeaBag.
What could you receive in benefits? Maybe, just maybe, our elected officials
will start to listen to the people. Take out the Pork. Tell us how the money is
being spent. We want TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY. Remember,
the money will be spent over the next 4-5 years. It is not too late.

You were sent this as a protest against your despicable spending
and lack of HONOR in representing we the people.
