Republicans = Democrats

To all my elected officials,
Well, it is now official. When a Republican candidate endorses a Democratic candidate I know we no longer have a two party system. We have a one party system that feeds off the taxpayer. You in Washington have lost your way. I am not your cash cow, I am not your servant, and I am certainly not going to listen to anything you have to say. You all have become guests of a continual Roman orgy, gorging yourselves on the fruits of my labor. It is time for you to understand the real meaning of the second amendment.

"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." I am sure you all watch Glenn Beck so you must know I am quoting Thomas Jefferson.

For those whose vocabulary does not contain the word tyranny, but do prescribe to the teachings of Mao and the behavior of Chavez, here is a definition:

“Arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power; despotic abuse of authority.”

Do you understand how close you are to this point? Do you have any idea the number of firearms and stocks of ammunition that have been purchased by “law abiding” citizens? Do you not understand that we, as a people, are entirely against what you are attempting and given no other alternative may resort to such an unthinkable response to your behavior?

We are a supposed to be a free people, unfettered by the heavy hand of government. And yet you attempt to regulate every minute of our lives as you pour our tax dollars into the hands of those who support your drive to a socialist utopia where wealth is spread as government sees fit. Do you not understand we will not willingly be led down the path to a life where government holds the keys to our happiness? The spirit that assembled this nation, ripping it from the hands of its overseers, is alive. You have attempted to marginalize everything this country stands for and yet the heartbeat continues. You have failed.

I have written each and every one of you on more than several occasions, thinking you actually care, but with today’s actions by candidate Scozzafava, who was selected by the RNC, the true colors of Washington are finally shining. You have become “lords and ladies” believing you know better than I how to live my life. The ones who come to bring our country back to its Constitutional roots are the ones I will be fighting and voting for, regardless of the myriad of labels you attempt to apply to them. It truly is time to throw the bums (that would be you) out!

With the respect due your position,
Edward Rodda
