Editor, The News:
Evil happens when many good people do nothing.
In America today, evil is happening. Our Constitution is being trashed by the very ones we voted for to uphold the Constitution.
When will the silent majority stop being silent? Americans need to wake up. The country is quickly going down the path toward a government takeover, led by the “enlightened” one they put in the White House.
The silent majority did this, by voting for change. But the change they are getting is leading this country toward communism and it is happening so quickly.
President Obama knows that his curtain of opportunity is limited to the remaining time his Democrats have in Congress, and if the silent majority continues to remain silent. The silent majority must act now or remain silent forever.
The action needed is to replace any politician, Democrat or Republican, who has blindly followed this man in the White House and has ignored the concerns of the very people he or she represents.
Do we really feel like anyone is listening to us in Washington?
It is time to hold all politicians accountable for what is happening in this country by closely examining voting records. If those records do not coincide with our beliefs, we need to clean house and insert politicians who will go to Washington fighting for us, not for their parties or personal achievement and wealth.
Evil does not need to happen if we take appropriate personal action and stop it.
