Dear Mr. President

Dear Mr. President and Members of Congress,
I am really growing tired of your inability to accomplish anything. All of this talk about the "fiscal cliff" is incredibly irritating. In case you haven't noticed, we've been sliding down the side of that cliff for years now. Apparently none of you do your own grocery shopping, put gas in your cars or subscribe to cable TV. Now we stand on the precipice of the largest tax increase since World War II. As you sit back and debate tax increases on "the wealthiest Americans" our national debt increases 4 BILLION dollars a DAY! This gubmint borrows, on average, 2 million dollars per MINUTE! The amount of gubmint waste is mind boggling. The Department of Health and Human Services has just announced a 500 Million Dollar Program that will, among other things, seek to solve the problem of 5-year old children who "Can't sit still" in a kindergarten classroom. And now, Mr. President, you have the audacity, the gall, the unmitigated arrogance to propose PAY RAISES for the Vice President, Congress and Federal Workers! You, Sir, are the epitome of what is wrong with this country. Maybe you don't know or maybe you just don't care but you are the reason people are so angry. You and your fellow politicians are so out of touch, so blind to what is happening right in front of you, that I am frightened. While the hard working people of America faces a tax increase of $200 a month, you're discussing raising your own pay. Who does that!?! You were elected (not by me) to protect the people of this country, not profit from them. You stand in front of the TV cameras and go on and on about how much you care about the people and how you're trying to do what's best. You're such a hypocrite. This ridiculous "tax on the wealthiest Americans", making the "rich" pay their "fair share" so you can take their hard earned money and give it to millionaire Congressmen who sit on their A$$ES and do nothing! You want to give pay raises to federal workers while your policies are putting private sector workers on the unemployment line by the millions. What is wrong with you? Are you really that clueless? So, Mr. President and members of Congress I say to you, ENOUGH! Stop threatening me with your self-created fiscal cliff. You are the one who crafted and approved this doomsday spending plan. Why would you do that? Now, when your bluff is called, you say it's not your fault. Well, it is your fault. You did this and now it's time, for once, to be the Leader you were elected (not by me) to be. Stop all of this game playing, bickering and threats. Stop wasting our money on nonsense. Cut out this useless spending. STOP borrowing money we can never repay. Stop pretending to compromise and start actually negotiating. I know that a $200 a month tax increase means nothing to you and yours. That's why you want to raise the pay of your minions. So they won't revolt! Mr. President, I can't afford a $200 a month tax increase. I simply can't. I won't be getting a pay raise next year. I didn't get one this year, last year or the year before. You are making it impossible for me to live. Do you understand? Do you care? You are making it impossible for me to make ends meet. I don't have an extra $200 a month and I don't know many people who do. Please Stop this Insanity! Don't make me come to Washington!
