NO More!

It's just around the corner... two days away, in fact... The grand American tradition: Tax Day!

Just in case you've forgotten, you still have two days to finish adding up your receipts in a vain attempt to coerce your government to return some meager portion of the money they forcefully confiscated from your paycheck throughout the year. If you still have not completed this years' installment of the annual tradition, I wish you luck! And if you, like me, have already completed this year's trial-by-fire, then I truly do feel your pain (unlike a certain former President who comes to mind).

In either case, I want to take this opportunity to urge you to attend one of the many Tax Day Tea Parties that are undoubtedly going on in your area. For far too long, our government has abused the power we've vested in it. It's time that we stand together and say
"Enough is Enough! The Era of deficit spending, running up massive debt, confiscatory and punitive tax rates, printing money to pay for pet projects, and Big Government running our lives is over! We won't stand for any more tax hikes, bailouts, or needless spending!"
Both Republicans and Democrats have been complicit in doing the things listed above. Both parties are to blame, while you and I (and ultimately our children) are left with the bill. Enough is enough! We need to stand together, and begin to take back our country from those who have held it hostage for far too long. It's time we take back our country, and restore the principles that our Founding Fathers believed in: Liberty, Personal Responsibility, and most of all, Freedom -- the freedom to succeed without fear of punishment, and the freedom to fail.

To find a tea party near you, look at www.taxdayteaparty.com. Join me in saying "No More"!
