Republican Incumbents - Contract With America

Republican members of Congress, running for reelection in 2012 and 2014, need to sign a Contract With America so that we can be sure that they understand what must be done to garner our votes.   As far as this Blogger is concerned a lot of Republicans talk the talk; but they don't walk the walk when push comes to shove.  We need to elect real Conservatives in 2012 and 2014 to take back our country who support free market capitalism, limited government, lower taxes and less regulation, a balanced budget, term limits, real education, energy, health care and entitlement reform, a strong national defense, including securing our border and fighting Terrorism, the right to bear arms, the sanctity of life and family values that are the foundation of our nation.   This is the platform supported by the American people and the only way to restore economic growth and create jobs again in our country.  

Most Republicans in office would probably say they support these ideals; yet for years they have been complicit in adding to our National Debt and have failed at problem solving.  And, as we look at long tenured Republican Members of Congress, we must ask the question, just what have they accomplished during their years in office.   We have experienced 100 years of Socialist creep that is bankrupting our country.  Republicans eager to compromise by reaching across the aisle are just as responsible for this drift to the left as the Socialists in Congress that engineered it.  

We can't have that anymore.   So,  we must insist that incumbent Republicans agree to a Contract With America to gain our votes for reelection.   And, if they don't achieve the things listed below in the next six years, they should also agree that they will resign and or not run for reelection.   Print out the document below and ask your Republican Congressman or Senator, running for reelection, to sign it as a condition for your vote.   Add other items important to you.

                             REPUBLICAN INCUMBENT CONTRACT WITH AMERICA

I ___________________________ running for reelection to Congress do hereby agree to work diligently to accomplish the following as a condition for remaining in office.  

1.  Enact a Balanced Budget Constitutional Amendment
2.  Enact a Congressional Term Limit Amendment
3.  Enact a Constitutional Amendment Defining American Citizenship
4.  Enact a Constitutional Amendment Limiting Federal Taxing Authority
5.  Balance the federal budget
6.  Pay off 50% of the National Debt within 6 years
7.  Reform Social Security and Medicare to make them both permanently sustainable
8.  Enact a 50 year plan to make the United States Energy Independent
9.  Secure our Border
10. Repeal ObamaCare and enact real health care reform
11. Shrink the federal government by eliminating 500,000 federal civilian employees
12.  Eliminate redundant federal programs, agencies, commissions and departments
13.  Reform Immigration Policy to deal with the Illegal Aliens living in the US
14.  Reform the Tax Code, by eliminating loop holes, to create a flatter, fairer tax system
15.  Eliminate many job killer Regulations
16.  Reign in the Environmental Protection Agency and the National Labor Relations Board
17.  Return power to the States in accordance with the 10th Amendment

I understand that if I do not accomplish these critical tasks to prevent the bankruptcy of the United States and to preserve our freedom, out nation and way of life for the sake of our children and grandchildren that I will resign, or not seek reelection six years from now.

If our Republican elected Members of Congress can't get these things done in another six years in office, we need to send them packing.   Any incumbent Republican that will not sign this Contract with America should be challenged by a Tea Party Member who will sign it. 

We have to take back our country in 2012 and 2014 by sweeping Socialists, at all levels of government, including President Obama, out office.   However, in doing so, we must elect real Conservatives pledged to get these things done.   Like in any business, failure cannot be rewarded.   If our Republican Members of Congress work business as usual and accomplish little or nothing, they too need to hit the road.   If we don't get these things done in the next six years, our nation will be lost.   We can't let that happen.
