Dear Speaker John Boehner,
I understand that you have been in an impossible situation lately. You tried to negotiate with the president in good faith. In return for your bipartisanship, the president kicked you in the teeth. His goal is to get you on the ground and kick you about your ribs, hips and anywhere else he might make a connection. He wants to destroy you, and the rest of us in his quest to perfect our union.
I would have liked to send this plea to my representative in Congress, but thanks to one of the dirtiest campaigns in history, Dan Maffei is now my representative and Ann Marie Buerkle no longer represents me and my family. The problem is that Dan Maffei does not represent me, my husband or my children. Most of his adult life has been spent in Washington, DC. Even though he officially lives about half a mile away from me, he has no clue what Central New York families are going through.
Anyway, here’s a picture of my kids their father took the other day while skiing. See how happy they look? That will change when they grow up and find out what form of government they have to fund.
We’re well past the time to say “enough.” Our lives are now in your hands. Please, do whatever you can do to stop this march towards communism. I know it’s a huge burden, but you’re the only thing standing between freedom and tyranny. Forget the biased media, think about the children. Please.
Update: While you’re at it, maybe you could try to do something about the IRS.
Update: Linked by ConMom and Sentry Journal – thanks!

Obi-One could give a shit less about you TLC or anyone else for that matter. His ONE goal is to turn the U.S. into a Third World country. He sees Indonesia as Utopia. I see him as a corrupt bastard who was born in Kenya. History will prove Obama as a fraud. I’ve got hemorrhoids with more sense than this douche nozzle!!

Here is an open letter to some conservatives about how come my generation did not ‘fix the problem’ :
YOU ARE RIGHT. We could have solved the problem and spared your generation the left wing disease. IF we had the knock-down evidence about commies in 1960 we would have them exposed and discredited and marginalized. They would not be doing their “march thru the institutions” including the Education System. There would not be any sixties radicals, or they would be too ashamed to show their face in public. That would have prevented all the stuff you are complaining about. There would be no Che t-shirts, nobody chanting ‘ho ho ho chi minh’, nobody waving little red Mao books. Noam Chomsky would be doing linguistics instead of politics. Whittaker Chambers and Joe McCarthy and Birchers would not have been demonized because they would have facts and evidence to go up against the NY Times and that bunch. Americans would be aware that there are totalitarian tendencies in the Left. So, at worst you would have to deal with midwest style populists.
But why didn’t that happen ? Because Venona was top top ultra secret. Too bad the KGB already knew about it, but we didn’t know that. Besides, it would not have been sufficient. You really need the Soviet Archives together with Venona, to make a knock down argument that commies are totalitarian creeps, rather than ‘liberals in a hurry’, and make it stick. Remember – there was no Rush. There was no Levin. There was no Talk Radio. There was no Right Scoop. There was no Ann Coulter writing ‘Treason’ because her book was based on Venona and the Soviet Archives ! Nobody really knew how utterly creepy these totalitarians are until Richard Pipes wrote ‘The Unknown Lenin” and other works exposing what the commies did, based on the archives. There WAS Robert Conquest, but he said that ‘after the archives’, the history of the whole period has to be re-written.
The upshot is that the Left got a free ride for nearly 40 years – the Abbie Hoffmans, Jerry Rubins and SDS and Bill Ayers, Angela Davis and Kathy Boudin – all doing their best to turn the educational system into what you complain about, and libs were giving them the benefit of the doubt, because there was no knock-down expose of their totalitarian crap. Libs were making excuses for the Left. That began to turn around in the 90s. It STILL needs turning around.
Now, I want you to appreciate this: How did we get the evidence we needed ? Give thanks to Dimitry Volkaganov. He was a historian and went to Boris Yeltsin with this idea of exposing the Bolshevik secret archives. Americans theoretically decide about Venona, but we have no influence over this sort of thing. And how many countries make any such thing available ? It might as well be an ‘act of God’ . What if Yeltsin thought it imprudent to open the archives ? It makes me very nervous to think that history depends on such a slender thread. We would be in the dark, and the commies would be re-writing our history with impunity.
I can go on and on about this, but frankly, I have to deal with the Feinstein-Obama juggernaut when american parents are outraged, and the entire freakin liberal media wants confiscation. I am doing what Heritage ought to be doing, and nobody is handing me any grant money. Frankly, unless you spend a few years reading all this depressing crap about what commies and what made them tick, instead of reading what might advance your career, then you simply don’t have the intellectual ammo to deal with them. Like Mark said ‘thank me very much’. Like Lubos says ‘that’s the memo’.

Putting our hope in Boehner is like putting your hope in standing on a wet cardboard box to help you reach the scrap of food too high to reach to save you from starving to death. God help us.
