Mr. President, It is time to LEAD!

Leaders understand the power of "self-awareness"

Mr. President, here is where the rubber meets the road…It is time to LEAD! Let the Bush tax cuts lapse, and if Congress does not present you a viable “debt ceiling bill” by August 2, please, please, invoke the 14^th amendment, and settle this debt ceiling distraction! It should be quite evident to you after three years, that “the party of NO” will do anything to see you fail, including sabotaging this great nation! Enough of bi-partisan rhetoric because you cannot unite a group of hypocrites, bigots, and illiterates! Last, they may be conservative, but they are not the TRUE REPUBLICAN PARTY (Not Lincoln Republicans, nor Reagan Republicans. Not even Nixon Republicans)! Case in point(s), the tea party group in Congress is starting to turn on their own Caucus. This type of behavior would have been frowned upon in the Reagan era. I dare not mention President Lincoln under the guise of these creatures. In fact, I am willing to bet the past presidents that I mentioned above, would surely denounce this type of reckless, and incompetent behavior. Mr. President, the Republican Party (the true statesmen) are held hostage by a group of far right extremists. Quite dangerous to our democracy. I ask the question, Mr. President, “If not now, when?” It is time to LEAD…

From a moderate independent...I'm just saying'...
