THE DISHONESTY OF THE LEFT - IN ONE NAME , "HARRY REID'

GRASSFIRE NATION UPDATE
Steve Elliott

Conservatives,

On Friday, Harry Reid used a procedural move to sabotage 
the Senate cloture vote on "Cut, Cap and Balance." Technically
it was a "vote on the motion to table the motion to proceed"
to the bill.

          In doing so, Reid call the bill "radical" and said
          it was "one of the worst pieces of legislation to
          ever be placed on the floor of the United States 
          Senate."

Radical? Cutting spending is radical? Capping government 
spending is radical? Balancing the budget is radical?


It was a strict party-line vote with all Democrats voting
to table (i.e. kill) the bill. This despite the fact that 
20 Democratic Senators have pledged their support for a
Balanced Budget Amendment.

The Big Spenders think they just won the fight. Now, Reid
and gang are headed back to negotiate a "compromise" that 
will increase our debt, expand government and raise our taxes.

What's next?

One of two things...

Either the backroom deal that Obama and the Big Spenders have
been working on for weeks will pass with tax increases and no
end to the spending and deficit madness, 

Or...

A second wave of the Tea Party resistance will arise and 
demand an end to runaway spending, demand a balanced budget
amendment, and demand fiscal accountability in Washington.

If you are outraged...

#1 -- Call Reid and your two Senators

#5 -- (most important) Stay in the fight. Keep your chin up.
The price of liberty is high. We must remain vigilant. The very 
future of our nation is at stake and we have been called to
serve for "such a time as this." This is OUR Valley Forge, 
OUR Iwo Jima. You and I can be part of the generation that 
restores liberty and limited government for our children, 
grandchildren and generations yet to come. To find others 
who are "in the trenches", go here:
