Open Email to Sen. Cruz (TX):
Dear Sen. Cruz,
I have read your form letter on funding the federal government.
In October, the House proposed funding the federal government piece by piece. The Democratic Senate disagreed, which led to a partial 13-day shutdown of the federal government. Funding Obamacare became an integral part of the discussion. The government was reopened, without any progress in funding government operations piece by piece, and with no limitation on funding Obamacare.
You voted against ending the shutdown, because the "deal" to end it did nothing to give relief to the millions of Americans who are hurting because of Obamacare.
Because of inept rhetoric capability of Republicans, they have been saddled with a negative impression of having caused an undesirable shutdown. I don't accept that position. During the 13-day shutdown, no one seemed to be especially damaged, and it was proven that life could still go on quite well in the US without full government operation. However, these were all ancillary to what appears to be the main point, which was to defund Obamacare.
I suggest you may want to no longer look at these abstract ways to inactivate an already passed law. It is not that Obamacare is a good thing. It is terrible and will lead to the destruction of the United States as a significant economic and political entity, unless that law is repealed. However, it will be up to the will of the people in the 2014 election. The people will either vote for continued Democratic liberalism, which is in effect socialism leading to destruction, or do an about-face and allow for the repeal of such disastrous laws as Obamacare.
However, referring to the real title of this message, which is Funding the Federal Government, there will be another controversy on extending the federal debt and approving the present program of federal expenditures. As you know, annual federal expenditures strongly exceed revenues, which involves continued borrowing. This is also an indirect part of the Socialist program, which puts us on the road to destruction. It is this area, where I suggest you apply your greatest attention and resolve.
