“Dems to lift debt ceiling by $1.8 trillion: http://bit.ly/6Xhykh ”

IF Sen. Evan Bayh is truly a “deficit hawk”; IF Sen. Evan Bayh TRULY cares about Indiana; then he will FIGHT tooth and nail against this measure to increase the debt ceiling. If not for our current opinions on insolvency or independence from foreign debt, then FIGHT to free future generations from the SLAVERY of owing people we don’t even know let alone our hesitance in liking them (like China – you know – the country where they run over students with tanks and imprison people of faith).

Think about when you owe someone, particularly when they have alterior motives to lending you money. How do they treat you? How do they hustle you, all the while you can’t be sure if they really want you to pay them back in full, because they’ll still have something on you, to call you on. “Oh, you don’t feel the same way about doing something for me? Hey, don’t you owe me some money?” That’s how it begins.

Think about when you owe a large sum of money to a creditor, like a credit card company. After a while, they raise the interest. How does it feel when it seems you can never pay them back? Maybe you’re making INTEREST payments, but you never quite seem to muster the funds to pay for the principle. What else do they do? They probably keep raising your credit limit though, don’t they? It will mean that you will continue to depend on them. You will continue to owe them more money because something else keeps coming up. A health emergency happens. A child has a need or a want that is too strong for you to deny it (it’s almost Christmas afterall and the other kids’ parents are buying X gift!). The car breaks down. The cost of gas rises up again. But how do we fix this?

We must find ways to work more efficiently and spend less. That sounds simple but it’s not that easy to do though, is it? What if you have no choice but to stay under a certain limit? Then maybe you know that ceiling is coming and you don’t want to hit it, so you curb the spending on things you can do without. That ceiling is what the liberal congress is trying to raise and do without, all the while they play us for fools like we won’t ever have to pay it back. You should be able to feel it in your gut though, when something is too good to be true. This certainly is too good to be true. We will have to pay the money back – at least the interest payments – and this congress, this big government of millionaires, will remind us that we owe them. We must do what they want.

There will be a few that fight it, though, and we must support them. Just the same, we must call out those who make it look like they’re fighting, but really, they’re just trying to look responsible on an election year. For those sorry Senators and Representatives, we MUST kick them out. We CANNOT afford them any more.

These bureaucrats are eating better than we do. They send their kids to schools better than ours. They scoff at the notion that they should live on the same national health care policy they want us to live on. No more will we allow them to enslave us with “easy money”. Treating us like we need the government to run like “Pay-Day Advance” centers or “no credit check” auto dealerships.

Whether you read the fine print or not, it’s time to send someone new to represent Indiana’s families and our responsible Hoosier values.

Send Marlin Stutzman to the US Senate. Welcome Evan Bayh, Washington Millionaire, back to Shirkieville.
