CLIFF: We need the Tea Party

Doug Miller nailed it right on the head, “My Turn December 14.” Obama needs the fiscal cliff to enact his agenda of bringing America to its knees. In “Dreams of my father” Obama makes it very clear that to make America a third world entity is his goal.

Why else would he push for programs that cripple the economy, asking for increased taxes for job creators, big stimulus packages that have not created any jobs except for government or public jobs, enlarging welfare and government-dependent roles so that the so called safety net has now become a lifestyle for a large portion of our people?

The Republicans need to take a stand and work toward a new Congress in 2014. We need the Tea Party to once more put pressure on the weak kneed who would concede to the Democrats.

Hopefully the American people will waken when the economy goes south and a new recession grips the nation.

Let your representatives hear from you and to show some backbone. We don’t need two Democratic parties.
