September 16, 2011

Last Thursday, President Obama announced the creation of his so-called "jobs bill" called The American Jobs Act of 2011. Since then, in his public statements, the President has called on Congress to "Pass this
Bill Now" over 100 times! We are rallying tens of thousands of Liberty Counsel Action team members to counteract this bullying and to tell Congress, "Pass this Bill - Never!" Please take a moment to read my urgent message below - Mat.

What has changed since the abysmal failure of President Obama's first two stimulus packages - spending over a trillion dollars and plunging America into almost $15 trillion dollars in debt?

The answer is - much has changed, but not for the better!

In an insightful article published by "American Thinker" author Chad Stafko reveals some very disturbing statistics:

"In less than 1,000 days as chief executive of the United States, President Obama's failed policies and initiatives have resulted in a dizzying array of dismal economic statistics...

Government dependence, which is defined as the percentage of persons receiving one or more federal benefit payments, is at a staggering 47%, its highest level in American history, while 21 million households are reliant on food stamps. In fact, government spending on food stamps in 2010 ($68 billion) was double what it was in 2007, with the 2011 figure likely to be even higher.

According to the August employment report from the Department of Labor, the nation's unemployment rate remained at 9.1% with a total of zero jobs added to the economy during the month. Those are the official unemployment rates. The real unemployment rate, as it is sometimes referred to, rose to a seasonally adjusted 16.2% in August.

These woeful economic figures have come during a time in which we have experienced the most government involvement in the economy since the days of FDR and government spending without parallel in our nation's history.

Now, President Obama has said he wants to spend hundreds of billions of dollars more to stimulate the economy.  The American people can't take much more."

No thinking American can endorse Obama's "jobs bill."  Mr. President, we have already seen you spend, and spend, and spend...and plummet our country into insurmountable debt without ANY verifiable economic or jobs recovery.

That's why Liberty Counsel Action is calling on every concerned American to sign our "Pass this Bill - Never!" petition to Congress. We are also calling for a step in the right direction to reign in government spending, exercise fiscal restraint, and create more accountability!

I believe this petition will rally many tens of thousands of concerned citizens who are fed up with the state of the American economy...while incompetent (and one has to wonder if they're not willfully destructive) leaders and presidential appointees steer this country closer to a colossal financial meltdown with yet another $447 billion stimulus plan!

I urge you to join us in telling Congress, "Pass this Bill - Never!"

In less than three years, President Obama, his leftist administration, and collaborators in Congress have turned our nation from an economic "super power" with an AAA credit rating into a socialist state with a rapidly declining middle class.

That is not an overstatement!

Remember the "shovel ready" jobs that the earlier stimulus was intended to fund? Then you probably also remember that the President later smirked about that phrase and recanted in an economic forum, saying, "Shovel-ready was not as...uh... shovel-ready as we expected."

Do you recall that the $787 billion "Stimulus One" was partially earmarked for repairs to bridges, roads, and infrastructure?

President Obama has said repeatedly his latest jobs bill is needed for bridges, roads and infrastructure! Does he actually think we can't remember what he said just two years ago?

The plain fact is, this bill does nothing to address the major obstacle to American employment - government
bureaucracy, regulation, and intrusion in the private sector.

In fact, according to the Heritage Foundation, 75 major new regulations that have cost U.S. businesses more than 40 billion dollars have been passed since Barack Obama first took office!

President Obama's plan does nothing to prevent jobs from going overseas into cheaper labor markets...

It does nothing to address unfair trade practices, which hamper American business from competing in global markets...

And it does nothing to address the mountains of regulations imposed by overzealous government agencies that are killing American business!

NOW is the time to stand for REAL change!  Right now, fiscal conservatives in Congress are in position
to bring about economic policy changes with lasting effects.

Liberty Counsel Action believes that rejecting Obama's latest jobs/stimulus plan is putting another crucial
piece of the fiscal restraint puzzle into place.

We want to deliver tens and tens of thousands of these petitions to our elected officials in Congress as soon
as possible. In fact, I believe we can assemble 50,000 signed petitions within the next week if you and other concerned Americans will forward this message to as many of your like-minded friends as possible!

Click here now to read and sign the "Pass this Bill - Never!" petition that will be sent to Congress on behalf of tens of thousands of Americans:  http://www.lcaction.org/r.asp?u=50317&RID=32614761

We MUST continue to be a strong voice for fiscal conservatism and stop Congress and the President from turning this ill-advised stimulus package into yet another liberal fiscal disaster!

Please help put America on sound financial footing so that our children and grandchildren can enjoy the liberty our forefathers fought, bled, and died to provide to their progeny!

God bless you,
Mathew Staver, Chairman

P.S. There is no doubt that President Obama has brought economic "change" to our nation. But after two and a half years of out-of-control spending, we all now realize that it has been a horribly undesirable kind of change! The fiscal insanity of his proposed American Jobs Act of 2011 must be stopped! Click here to sign the "Pass this Bill - Never!" petition:  http://www.lcaction.org/r.asp?u=50317&RID=32614761
