In your hands, my angry, bitter, racist and dissatisfied Tea Party elected officials is the momentous issue of raising the debt ceiling. However, you have no interest in doing what is right for the country. By not raising the debt ceiling, you and you alone will be responsible for bringing about a catastrophic financial and psychological disaster on the Republic and its citizenry.
The government, or as you call it: Socialism, Communism and Fascism will not assail you without you first being the aggressor. You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the Republic, but that is fully your intention--to destroy the nation. “We the People” seek compromise in raising the debt ceiling, but without fleecing Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and social service programs that benefit millions of middle class, working poor and poor.
We are not enemies, but citizens of the Republic, but you have chosen to be America’s enemy. Your aloofness, lack of knowledge of the Constitution and apathy for humankind is misguided--but will not break the bonds that bind the country.
Your anti-patriotism has given way to the darker angels of your nature. There is still time for you to correct this, although the time is quickly evaporating for you to embrace the better angels of your conscience.

"A Has Been?"
The Republic is free falling into the history pages as a "once mighty" nation. America is much too young to fade so quickly into the category of a "has been," but that is where we are headed.
We live in a country that could provide a job, a home, unlimited nourishment, medical care and a first class education to all 319,000,000 people. Instead, our unemployment is 9% nationally, 16.2% are unemployed among the 39,000,000 million African Americans and more than 20% of Americans that possess a college degree are unemployed. At the same time in 2011, over a span of a few months, our government spent some $56,000,000,000 on military defense while banks attempt to foreclose on the homes of soldiers and their families. Economic inequality has never been mightier in the Republic. Why does a country that has everything appear to be throwing it all away and failing the citizenry with perfect regularity?
The Tea Party (the former Republican Party) cannot lead the nation to economic or policy prosperity. And since they lack ingenuity and effective leadership they are attempting with frightening ferocity to destroy our nation. Elected officials within the party of "NO" carry hatred for President Obama that is so intense and perverse they've decided to plunge America--into a backward and chaotic society. And yet, citizens have become so disgusted with the elected body that rather than mobilize and vote--they sit on the sidelines and cry foul while in the meantime political corruption in the heart of the Republic reigns supreme.
American media has failed us, too. When Murdoch's News Corp Inc. /FOX News are considered a "credible" source of information then you know the profession of journalism requires an enema. Where are the journalists with integrity who report honestly without relying on talking points? There are a handful of American journalists like Ms. Goldie Taylor and Cenk Uygur who possess journalistic integrity. Both are having difficulties with being given a platform to report on because networks are afraid to give them a news show--if only they would "play the game" that the "establishment" requires. What makes matters worse is that hand in hand with irresponsible journalism are the many Americans failing to read what international journalists are reporting collectively and "objectively" about world issues. For example, despite what many Americans may believe, many countries in Africa (Africa is a continent, Ms. Palin) are living in poverty and some parts are facing droughts of epic proportion. It is criminal that politicians will often sit and bicker tit for tat about this and that when they have the authority to aid those who are hungry, severely malnourished and deprived of clean water--but time and time again, they simply do nothing.
"We the People" have it within us to change this current outcome of the Republic becoming "a once mighty nation" but we must hurry--time and demise wait for no one.
