No Blank Check for Obama to Raise Taxes...!!!

Dear Senator Cornyn,

What is wrong with your fellow Senator from Texas, Senator "Cave-Rino" Hutchison ?

In the midst of this incredibly important debt crisis discussion, she says, "I think it’s a fair compromise."

There is NO WAY IN THE WORLD that caving into a socialistic President Obama is a fair compromise.

We MUST NOT give Obama a blank check when it comes to the debt ceiling, which is just more power to raise taxes!

The McConnell-Reid Plan gives President Obama new power to unilaterally raise the debt ceiling $2.5 trillion in three segments over the next year, without a Congressional majority.

It also creates a new congressional committee to report a deficit plan to Congress by the end of the year. No way do we need a new committee, or a new set of government controls.

But here's what bothers me the most:  this plan would become a massive tax increase, while handing Obama almost unilateral power to increase the debt ceiling.

It would give Obama almost unilateral power to raise the debt ceiling without so much as a Congressional majority. This is not only irresponsible leadership, it undermines our Constitution.

According to the Washington Post, "The panel will require only a simple majority to report a plan to Congress, it would be protected from Senate filibuster and it would not be subject to amendment."

Let me be perfectly clear: I STRONGLY oppose any measure to give Obama the power to raise the debt ceiling without a Congressional majority. Also, I OPPOSE any debt deal that raises taxes without an equal or greater tax cut elsewhere.

Senator, Please stand strong and oppose Obama on this issue, and work hard to convince your fellow Senator from the Great State of Texas.

DO NOT Increase the DEBT CEILING...!!!

Dear Senator Cornyn,

I’m appalled to read that Republicans may agree to cave on raising the debt ceiling…!

The debt ceiling now stands at 14.3 trillion dollars.  Every American should be ASHAMED of that number.

I’m angry that Sen. Mitch McConnell was first to signal the impending fold.

I’m  TOTALLY  INFURIATED that you, OF ALL PEOPLE, said that Republican Senators would accept a "mini" deal on the debt ceiling.

I can't tell you how angry I am at you...!

Why did I vote to send any of you Republicans to Washington ???

I voted to send my Representatives and Senators to:
• Say NO to tax increases
• Reduce federal spending
• Say NO to Obamacare
• Stand against Obama and his push toward socialism

So, read my lips…

DO NOT RAISE THE DEBT CEILING!
No Tax Increase.
Repeal Obamacare.


I expect Republicans in both House and Senate to stand united for conservative principles.

If you choose to cave to Obama and ignore the voice of us here in Texas, we WILL remember at the next election.

May God rest your political soul.
