Why we need term limits now

Why, why, why, don't we restrain these career politicians with term limits? We've controlled the power of the presidency with a two term limit, why not do the same for the senators and congressmen? It only makes sense with an out of control federal government and politicians that spend and regulate like there is no tomorrow. Our founders expected that we would exercise some common sense.

Where is our common sense?

I think most Americans can agree that Washington has thrown common sense out the window. So...we must act.

The first best thing we could do for this country is limit their power. I think all Americans would vote to limit the terms of Senators and Congressmen.

No more career politicians.

This is not a Democrat or Republican issue, it's an American issue. We must restrain their power or they will continue to run over the people of this country and trample our liberties.

Take action now.

Ask your Senators and Congress members if they support term limits. If not, vote them out. No mercy.

This is a litmus test issue. If they don't get it, get rid of them. They do not believe in liberty if they are unwilling to restrain the power of the federal government.

It's them or us.
