Dear Mr. President,
On November 6, 2012 you made history and I helped you, as I
did in 2008. But this time I expect more.
I don't want to see a grand bargain that includes you
selling out the people who elected you. The election really was a clear choice
and voters said, we want a government that helps us up, rather than shuts us
out.
I voted for you because you are supposed to support and
defend the things Democrats believe in, like Pell Grants, Social Security,
Medicare and Medicaid. You are supposed to keep our environment clean and safe
from people who want to pollute it for profit.
Now is your time to prove that you will not bend to the will
of the losing party. America does indeed want to move forward.
So, Mr. President, stick to your guns and break the gridlock
because the best way to tame a spoiled child is to simply say no.
- · No to cuts in Social Security and the chained CPI index.
- · No to education cuts.
- · No to Medicare and Medicaid cuts
- · No to more tax cuts for the rich
And most importantly, say no to John Boehner and his Tea
Party caucus. Just because they refuse to listen to the voice of voters doesn't
mean you should go along for the ride.
