GEITHNER IGNORES REQUEST TO STOP TARP

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has ignored requests from Senator John Thune and other Republicans to end the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) on December 31st.  Geithner has the power to continue TARP beyond the intended end date, to basically use as revolving credit to those the "Administration" deems appropiate.  Senator Thune will introduce a bill today that keep Geithner from using the unobligated funds, approx $200 Billion for future use in 2010.  Thune contends the unused TARP money be used toward reduction of the deficit...much to the woe of Harry Reid and fellow Democrats.

There has been little or no transparency, and the money was NEVER used as intended, to purchase toxic assets from bans, but was diverted to bailout financial firms and automakers.  Why should our Government be allowed to continue to handout Billions of dollars to "unknown" entities, and especially with an election year on the horizon???  How can we be assured TARP money won't be filtered to ACORN and other "community orginizations"????  Your tax dollars used for heaven knows what!

Give up the "Money" Geithner...it is the peoples' money, and enough is enough!  Stop ignoring the Representatives of the American people.  No more revolving credit for your cronies.  STOP the bleeding, and stop plummeting America into bankruptcy!

Thank you Senator Thune for your attempt to stop this run away train.  We applaud your effort, but We The People need to stand up and demand our Government be fiscally responsible!

AMERICA SLAVE TO CHINA???

Don't look so shocked!  Anytime the "borrower" of money is pit against the "lender" of the money, tensions rise, and the lender has the "upper hand".  As the case of America and China, they are the leading "player" in buying American debt...basically our "bank".  America has over spent, and cannot live within her means, because of programs we cannot afford, fraud, waste and abuse..  Our Government has not been fiscally responsible, therefore we can no longer stand strong against China...because we are now, as the Bible quotes, "slave to the lender".  The President goes to China, and has to "tone down" any real push for human rights, trade equality, etc, because we have so much to lose.  

America is at risk of losing her foundational "soul" for money, and the American people have an opportunity to stop this ridiculous gluttony of spending by our leaders.  Never has there been a Government program that spent less than projected, on the contrary, they always spend more.  This health care plan will spend so much more than the TRILLION they tell us...a TRILLION we don't have, so where does it stop????  American people need to send a clear message to our Congress that the spending has to STOP!  Reform Health Care, and make adjustments that actually reduce costs, not escalate them.  If American people give our Government Health Care dollars, in the form of more taxes, penalties, etc, that money will be spent on other Government programs, just as has happened to money for Social Security, money for Bridges, roads, and a host of other programs.  The Government says one thing and does another.  DO NOT give up your freedom for making your own health care decisions.  We cannot afford the continuation of China building monumental control over us.  The more our Government spends, the more China and others can dictate our future destiny.

Stand up NOW America, and call your Senators to stop this health care plan in its tracks....for our future, and that of your loved ones!  Chinese is a difficult language to learn!
