I read a posting by friend of a friend
and her words brought these words to mind for me. Thank you Alex Wolf…
We as women (and those enlightened men
strong enough to include gender, sexual orientation, and nationality without feeling
emasculated) read the following phrase so differently than the current self
serving old white men in DC. "The Preamble
to the Constitution is clear as it starts "We the people, to form a "more" perfect union"; while
we were a fledgling union our forefathers had the foresight to see a document need
be put in place to protect future generations without regard or exception to all
living breathing persons with in our borders.
What a sad lot the elected officials have become in their execution of the law of the land. They seem to be twisting those laws to be self- serving. While you may not be the representative promoting exclusion or exception your silence solidifies your place in history. It is time to stand up, speak out and do the jobs you were elected to do. You, ladies and gentlemen of the House and Senate, are to be the leaders, the people selected by "the people throughout the United States", selected to represent our opinions and protect us all. Your election was to do the will of the people in the best interest of the people without bias or concern of whether you like or dislike those same people. Your bias is to never stand in the way of doing your sworn duties.

As an elected official you do not have
the luxury to plaque or acquiesce, but rather you are charged with the duty of understanding
the law of the land, and to follow rules that are for all not a privileged few,
and that the law is applied equally. It is time “our elected officials” start
acting like adults, stop fighting over whom the biggest, strongest, most liked,
has more money, or more influential and work together. It is time to show those people who voted for
you they were right in having faith in you and show the rest of us their vote wasn’t
misguided. Stop trying to divide us and
our nation.
At the end of the day all you truly have
is your conscience and integrity or lack thereof. There is no taking any worldly possession with you no matter
how hard you try. Do you want to be
remembered as the person who lead well during your life or as the person that
helped to divide a nation, who cheated the American public, whose gains were
gotten on the backs of the poor and who failed to protect and serve at a most crucial
time, but failed to take a stand for justice? It is up to you.
