AN OPEN LETTER—

From:  A Libertarian and Tea Party Patriot
To:      Republicans

Congratulations on your country-wide successes in this year’s election.

Congratulations also to those of you who realize this vote was largely a vote against Obama and his liberal cronies, both in Washington D.C., and all across the land.

It was not necessarily a vote FOR the GOP. You are simply the benefactors.

As you begin to settle into the status-quo—as you likely will—you will be well advised to remember the era of Newt Gingrich and the GOP’s then “Contract with America.”

Turns out that was nothing but more spiffy sounding rhetoric. Your predecessors did very little to improve the quality of life when the voters gave them the ball as they, once again-mostly, gave you the ball this year.

The result then was predictable. They were booted out of office shortly and their political grandstanding rose to the dismal level of being merely a footnote in political history.

Pay attention to the timeless truism, “History repeats itself.” Do you understand?

Your immediate tasks are:

--Get rid of the idiocy of Obamacare.

--Freeze the crushing tax increases we face January 1st.

--Stop financing the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

--Protect our borders.

--Read Atlas Shrugged.

--Read the US Constitution.

--Read your oath of office.

--Conduct yourselves accordingly.

You have two years to improve the quality of life of American citizens.

Fail; and history will indeed repeat itself—until we achieve the status of a banana republic dictatorship, which is precisely where we are headed.

Clinton was President when the Contract for America and the GOP majority took office in the 90's. Much the same situation today, GOP House and Democrat President. Many of the needed changes cannot happen since there are not enough votes to over-ride a veto. The real change needs to happen in two years when we have an opportunity to elect a new President. The challenge is for the GOP Congress to do enough good between now and then so that they are still a viable entity and remain in the majority. If they aren't moving in the right direction in the next two years, Obama will blame all failures on them and likely the Congress will swing back to the left and Obama will be re-elected, much the same as during the Clinton era.
