IT'S TIME

I know this is not a political blog, but I feel like as a wife and mother I have the ultimate duty to share this with everyone.
          After what I feel like has been not only days, weeks, or months but years of the "blame game" in our nation's capital, I feel it is time. Time for what?
TIME FOR-
-American's to STAND UP for what they believe in, no matter what their neighbor think. This country was founded by a group of Christian people disgruntled with their government, so why can't we take it back. Overwhelming statistics show this country still believes in God, yet we stand idly by and watch the minority tell the majority what to do. Why? Speaking for my generation I believe my parent's generation was actually bread into a life of complacency. Where their parents had fought wars, lived through the Great Depression, and truly knew the sense of being an American. They wanted to be nothing like them and in turn left us with a huge mess. No, I am not blaming my parents or their generation, but I do believe they had a lot to do with it. Now as an older generation, Generation X, it is time to show them who we are and the mark we want to leave on this world. No longer should we be afraid that our voices won't be heard, but yell from the rooftops what we believe, the America we want our children to have, and everything we so honestly deserve in this great nation.
NEXT IT IS TIME FOR-
-Citizens to tell these so called politicians to go home and quit ruining the good name of the U.S.. No we would not be in this huge mess if it wasn't for everyone from the President to every Congressman acting like blubbering idiots. You can not say we are in debt so far that this country has almost no hope of seeing out of because of the person across the aisle from you. Come on. I guarantee there is not one person in D.C. that has not in some way contributed to this mess. Whether it be from receiving "pork" for their constituents or by turning a blind eye to whatever came across their desks. When you act like idiots in front of the rest of the world they are finally going to say, I told you so. That place is falling apart from the inside out. No one needs to help us because we seem to be doing a great job of it ourselves. THANKS MR. PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS!!!
Because of this it is TIME FOR-
-Us to remind these politicians we put them there and we can send them home. Get out and vote! Use your voice in town hall meetings, letters, emails, facebook, twitter, wherever you can so that they know we MEAN business. It won't happen if we stay quiet. If you do choose not to register to vote and then vote, do NOT cry when this great country comes crashing down around us because our forefathers and may after them fought long and hard to give you that right. SO, USE IT!!!
-Also, make them wary of the fact that their office not so long ago was volunteer with little or no pay and the obligation to still run a business back home.(Wow what would Congress do today without us supporting their every whim?)
Lastly, it is TIME FOR-
-All Americans to realize each one of use need to take ownership in what we have as a country today from the good to the bad. We are in a mess and need a way out so look to yourself and see what you can fix. Why loose a great thing just because "it is someone else's fault?"
I know this will seem like a rant to some, but really it is a cry from a mother who wants nothing more than to leave her children, community, and country a better place than she found it. So stand with me and  grab your friends, neighbors, and community and let's take OUR AMERICA BACK!!!!

P.S. This probably won't be the last you will hear from me about this. I am mad and I am ready for a TRUE "Change"
