Lock ‘em up until they pass a budget

Posted April 07, 2013 4:40 am

We the people of the United States in order to preserve, protect and defend this great nation to ourselves and our posterity do hereby demand that U.S. House and U.S. Senate members, totally void any obsequious print or photo media fawning, be summarily sequestered without monetary or professional compensation in a Congressional conclave until such time as a permanently mandated balanced federal budget be secured and ratified.

To accept anything less would be to trivialize and demean the selfless sacrifice of those dedicated patriots who have given that last full measure of devotion in service to these United States. Engaged law-abiding Americans will patiently await the first sign of white smoke.
