At the risk of possibly offending some of my friends, I ask you to read the following letter from Lou Pritchett, former VP of Proctor and Gamble. Then, please join me in preparing for this fall's elections. Give your money, give your time, speak up, pray, and most of all, vote. If you love our country, this is not an election to be on the sidelines..Congressional races, in particular the Senate, are critical as well if we have any hope of restoring the foundations of our nation. thanks, From Steve T. / and forwarded by Chet Steffey and Harry Riley in full agreement.

Subj: Another Chilling Letter To Obama
Lou Pritchett's (Procter & Gamble) second letter posted, by him, on the July 11,
2012 online edition of the Topanga News:
I was born in year two of the Great Depression (1931) and spent the
first 10 years of my life influenced by the extreme hardships of the
depression. By today’s standards my family was about a mile below
today’s so-called ‘poverty level’ but if you never ‘had,' doing
without was not so ‘bad.’ Borrowing shoes to graduate from the 8th
grade didn’t seem at all demeaning because most of the 8th graders did
the same thing.
In June 1944, my only brother, Joe, was killed in action on Utah Beach
in Normandy, France during the D-Day landings. Exactly one year later,
my father died and left me, my mother and my sister to go it alone...
and alone we went. My mother went to work at a department store, my
sister dropped out of school and joined her and I went to work shining
shoes on the streets of Memphis for a dime a shine. Government
assistance was not available, and if it were, I am confident my mother
would have refused it because she never wanted the government involved
in our lives.
I mention this bit of personal history to help you understand that
millions of Americans, including your parents and grandparents, grew
up like me during the Great Depression and never expected nor wanted
the government to offer them anything other than an opportunity. And
now to see what Obama is trying to do to our country, can make you
crazy.
As some of you know, my “Scare Me" letter went viral with millions of
hits on the internet during the past three years. I have now written a
follow-up letter which I will now share with you:
In April 2009, I sent President Obama and the New York Times a letter
titled "You Scare Me" because, as a candidate, he promised to
"fundamentally transform America." Now, after observing his
performance for over three years, he no longer scares me---he
terrifies me for the following reasons:
FIRST: He has done more to damage America's standing in the world, to
lower the standard of living in America, to impoverish future
generations and to shake our faith in the country's future than any
other American president in history.
SECOND: With a compliant Democrat congress, a lapdog media and a weak,
almost nonexistent Republican opposition, he has shattered the
American dream of job security, home ownership and rugged
individualism for millions of Americans and has poisoned and divided
our civil society with his politics of envy, class warfare, race
warfare, and religious warfare which he is using as fundamental
building blocks for his 'socialist' agenda.
THIRD: Culturally, he remains totally out of touch with traditional
American values. This has absolutely nothing to do with race or where
he was born, rather it has everything to do with where, how and with
whom he was raised, schooled, educated, trained and associates with
still today.
FOURTH: He has surrounded himself with naive academicians, lawyers,
politicians, bureaucrats and socialist-leaning czars who arrogantly
think and behave exactly as he does. People who offer no balanced
suggestions or devils advocate positions and think in lock-step with
him that big government is the answer to all our problems.
FIFTH: He not only encourages but aids and abets in the unionization
of all American industry, the albatross around the neck of the free
market. In turn, they provide the money and muscle to intimidate his
opponents.
SIXTH: He has increased the national debt by over 30% in just three
years. If re-elected and this rate of increase continues, America will
be burdened with an unsustainable $20 trillion dollar debt which will
result in the country's financial death. Recovery will be impossible -
America will be the Greece of 2016.
SEVENTH: Given his fanatical adherence to the 'environmental' and
'man-caused global warming' fringe, he has deliberately discouraged
U.S. fossil fuel exploration and production while wasting millions of
taxpayer dollars on solar, wind and algae experiments. He refuses to
accept that oil, gas and coal are not America's enemies, they are
America's assets which, if properly managed, could make us energy
independent within a generation.
EIGHTH: He views the U.S. as a power in retreat which abused its World
dominance. Therefore, he systematically apologizes round the world.
Last March he whispered to Russian President Medvedev "... this is my
last election. After my election, I have more flexibility." Just what
is the secret that Obama and Putin are concealing from the American
people until after the election? With what other leaders has he made
similar secret agreements?
NINTH: And finally, after all his missteps, bad decision making, poor
management, and zero leadership, the fact that he has the audacity to
seek re-election should terrify every American.
I predict that if re-elected, future historians and political
interpreters will look back at the eight year period 2008-2016, and
conclude "the 44th President of the U.S. allowed the takers to
overpower the payers which resulted in the greatest economy in history
vanishing from the face of the Earth." Farewell, America. The World
will really miss you!"
It is my hope and prayer that this letter will also go viral and serve
as a 'wake up' call to Americans of all political leaning, convincing
them that never before in U.S. history has so much depended on
Americans understanding that we are facing one of the greatest crises
in U.S. history. Convincing them that this election will be won not by
letters to the editor, political speeches or radio and TV soundbites.
No!!! it will be won by those with a conviction, with a belief and
with a willingness to pay the price in helping put the most
enlightened voters in the polling booth on November 6.
Let me end on my favorite quote which I think is very appropriate for
each of us today:
"TO EVERY MAN THERE COMES IN HIS LIFETIME THAT SPECIAL MOMENT WHEN HE
IS PHYSICALLY TAPPED ON THE SHOULDER AND OFFERED THE CHANCE TO DO A
VERY SPECIAL THING, UNIQUE TO HIM AND FITTED TO HIS TALENT; WHAT A
TRAGEDY IF THAT MOMENT FINDS HIM UNPREPARED OR UNQUALIFIED FOR THE
WORK WHICH WOULD BE HIS FINEST HOUR."
Those words, spoken by Winston Churchill over 70 years ago, are very
appropriate for the Tea Party Movement today.
For if each of us is prepared and is qualified then November 6, 2012,
just might be our and our Country's finest hour as we reclaim this
"shining city on the hill" from the ravages of Obama Socialism.
IT IS NOW OR NEVER FELLOW PATRIOTS --GOD HELP US IF WE FAIL!

I believe it is time.
The problem is that any letter or message sent to washington go right into file 13 and none of who we send them to ever read them... In case some dont know that file 13 is the paper shredder. Thats what the staff does with the letters unless they are infavor of the person you sent it to...
unless he's a big donor!!
Great letter and I hope everyone reads it
NO one in DC is lissing to the American people, The only way they hear you is at the voting booth, We not only have to kick out the muslim in the W/H, but all that think like him, the senate and congress must be held accountable for their STUPID actions.

I've challenge EVERYONE to get "ONE" NEW voter to take with u to the polls that is willing to vote AGAINST OBAMA. I started out getting one for my husband and one for me. Now I'm working on two more I have just found. WHAT R U DOING?? Get that one voter, if I can do it, u can to. After we get these new voters, we give them voter registration forms gotten at local post office in lobby. They fill out and we tell them we will mail it at our cost (stamp), tell them they will get their card in the mail to call us. When they call, we set time to pick up on Nov 6th and I'll remind them the night b-4 with a call. I also explain the paper ballot to them about ur first time, u can just pick straight ticket or pick by individual postions. I also let them know I'll show them the ballot when we enter the polling place and show them through the ballot until they understand it to go and vote. I try to let them know I will help them the WHOLE WAY through the process of understand voting. PLEASE UNDERSTAND, we can not just sit and talk. We must CHANGE the outcome with "WORK".
we , I , love your thinking old glory.
we'll do it and get moer to do it.
