Subject: Stop the Reckless Pork Barrel Spending

My Friend,

While campaigning for change, Barack Obama said, "We need earmark reform, and when I'm President, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely." But now the President is about to sign a huge 2,697 page spending bill with over 9,000 unnecessary and wasteful earmarks. That's not the "change" we are looking for. I have called on the President to take a principled stand and veto the bill if it is sent to him, but unfortunately, he appears ready to sign it into law, which is nothing more than politics as usual.

It's no secret that I've spent my political career fighting against out-of-control, wasteful spending in Congress. And in nearly 30 years, I have never witnessed the type of alarming and irresponsible spending as I have seen in Washington over the past few weeks.

I am appalled to see this legislation being rushed through the Congress while containing so many egregious earmarks. It is unconscionable that while we are asking Americans to do more with less in these trying economic times we are about to spend $1.7 million for pig odor research in Iowa, $2 million for the promotion of astronomy in Hawaii, $475,000 for a parking garage in Provo City, Utah, $300,000 to build a Montana World Trade Center, and $150,000 for a rodeo museum in South Dakota.

Simply put, your federal tax dollars should not be funding these types of projects.

Let me put this all in perspective -- our country is currently nearly $11 trillion dollars in debt. Our projected deficit for 2009 alone is an alarming $2 trillion dollars. Just two weeks ago, President Obama signed a bill that the Democratic-led Congress passed to spend an additional $1 trillion in "stimulus spending." And on top of all of this, President Obama has requested $3.6 trillion in additional spending for 2010.

This type of spending should not happen and we must be principled and stop it!

I'm asking you to join me today in supporting the effort to stop this wasteful spending. I'm urging you to make an immediate donation of $25, $50, $100, $250, $500 or whatever you can give to my re-election campaign for the U.S. Senate to continue the fight to bring an end to wasteful spending.

Unfortunately, under the influence of the far-left, America is being led down a spending path that will be destructive to our children and grandchildren. And it is up to us to fight against this type of reckless spending.

Please follow this link to make an immediate donation to my re-election campaign to bring my message of ending wasteful, pork barrel spending to the American people. Your support will make a huge impact on my ability to fight on your behalf.

My friend, I have fought against wasteful spending in Washington for many decades and I promise you, I will not give up this fight until we have put America on the right track toward fiscal responsibility and a balanced budget. Thank you again for your continued support.

Sincerely,

John McCain

P.S. Spending in Washington is out-of-control and it's up to us to stop it. The Democratic-controlled Congress has passed spending bills stuffed with pork that will dig our country further into debt. This spending is not stimulating our economy. I'm asking you to take action today by following this link to make the most generous contribution you can to my re-election campaign, so that I am able to take this message directly to the American people and stop earmarks once and for all. Please join the fight today. Thank you.

Ok, and now on to my opinion. If you agree with John Mcain then stop reading now.

How DARE John Mcain say anything thing about spending or pork. Honestly, i think he might actually be MADE of pork. Here, he is sending an email where he talks about how we are having to cut back because of economic problems. This coming from a man that when asked during a compaign, he could not answer as to exactly how many houses he actually owned. Ha! What the HELL could he POSSIBLY have to say to me about finances.

Then, as if he were Satan himself, he then askes for money!! John McCain, you might honestly be the worst two-faced type of evil currently in existence here in the United State and it is YOU that are ruining this country!! NOT the democrates...NOT even the Republicans...YOU, John McCain, are the problem with this country!!

You sit on your thrown far removed from any thing that us normal people would experience in our regular everyday life and you talk to us as though you are Jesus himself. Believe it or not John, you are NOT what this country needs!

I hope you come to see this truth soon and that you are able to get your rectal-cranial inversion corrected before getting re-elected on a platform that could easily be the beginning of the end for this country as we know it.

And another thing, I am getting sick and tired of this "war-vocabulary"...Stop saying that we are FIGHTING AGAINST each other or that we need a plan of ATTACK or that any one is DISTROYING something or that we must be VICTORIOUS against the ENEMY. Its disgusting, polarizing, frustrating, childish, unhealthy, and counter-productive. STOP IT.

Whew...glad to get this off my chest...now to get back to my position of neutrality. -smile-
