Mr. Foster: Be a patriot

Congressman Foster, at this time in our history you need to be face to face with the people that hired you to work for them and not hide under your desk. My country is being torn to pieces by the radical left. The health care bill is not about health care, it's about controlling our lives.

Mr. Foster, will you vote to not have Congress exempt from this bill? You are not a royal class. Nowhere does the Constitution give this government the powers to control health care, take over private business and take private property.

I am so angry that thugs and communists are destroying my country.

I am old enough to know what life was like for people in the Soviet Union with its centralized power and Godless foundation. I know how millions came to their deaths due to Marxism.

I am 53 years old and a TEA Party member and I have seen both Democrat and Republicans build bigger and bigger government and in turn freedoms are lost. Read what Jefferson has to say about this. Have all of you in Congress forgotten what he and other founders said about big government? The founders created limited government for a reason.

I am asking you, Congressman Foster, to not be a Democrat but an American. Defend the Constitution, stand for limited government, stand for increased liberty, and stand for promoting a moral and religious people. As John Adams said: "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

Stand for these things, sir, and you are then a true American and a patriot.

As for me and my house, we claim the Constitution as our birthright, and we will defend it as we cry out for Liberty, Liberty, Liberty as our founders did.
