Rubio not backing off just PUSHING TEA PARTY MESSAGE HOME.

Rubio is not backing off or in denial on his tea party message. Read his words. His point is when Washington D.C. bureaucrats create and join fascade "tea party" organizations in D.C., there is a measure of whether or not they actually mean it or will carry the message of WE THE PEOPLE.

If you've attended a tea party in your local community and you have listened to an elected leader speak, especially a sitting one from state or federally, you have had to question whether or not this person is sincere or whether or not their record actually reflects what you expected them to have accomplished.

Rubio is not distancing himself, he is not running for President or anything else. He is walking the walk carefully and only time will tell. This is a distraction from the drive by media on the heals of a President who is about to give his State of the Union speech. The focus should be on a failed President after only two years in office, forcing his agenda and regime on We the People. Nothing more, nothing less. Rubio is a threat to these and the games have begun. Politics is a blood bath.


READ HIS WORDS in the article below....GET THE FACTS !

Excerpts:
[Rubio said he's worried the small-government, anti-tax movement will "lose its effectiveness" if it becomes a creature of Washington.]

["Why do we need something in addition to the steering committee (a group headed by conservative Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C.)?" Rubio said. "My concern is that politicians all of a sudden start co-opting the mantle of Tea Party. If all of a sudden being in the Tea Party is not something that is happening in Main Street, but rather something that is happening in Washington, D.C., the Tea Party all of a sudden becomes some sort of movement run by politicians."]

It's About The SPENDING....Now, Trim The Fat !!

It's about the S.P.E.N.D.I.N.G....stands for -stupid people enjoying nations deficit independence nearly gone.

Why is it that when one political party in this country is in power they over step their boundaries and when the other party is in power they work at cutting and reversing all that the previous political party did prior to their taking over?

That is the beauty of this wonderful system but what do you call it when both sides go too far and just don't get it anymore? I mean when the bureaucrats take us for a ride on a runaway train whether it be on spending, policy or power which leads to budget busting, takeovers, corruption, deficits and more. Arguably enough the other party does it's share of spending, policy making and power grabbing but WHY? Is it because that's the way things work? How about the adage it's our turn now so we are going to get our share? Or how about the phrase 'two sides same coin'? Is that what we are seeing?

What about the American Citizen? Have We the People been stepped on and forgotten? The decisions in Washington, D.C. as well as locally affect us all no matter the party or which side of the issue one chooses to be on but at some point We the People as well as the bureaucrats must realized as one nation that it is WE whom are affected. The quicker the better and it's only a matter of time.

How Much Does Congress Make?

How much does Congress make?

"We keep hearing about the sacred cows of social security and defense but what about the percentage of the budget it takes to run the government? I'd like to see the percentages of salaries of Congress, their benefits, and retirement." — N. H. Jansen

Though they make up less than five percent of the roughly $4 trillion federal budget, the salaries and health and retirement benefits for members of Congress and other government employees have become a target of many of those looking to slash government costs.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, with about 2 million civilian employees, excluding the postal service, the federal government is the nation's largest employer.
