Meet Congressman Keith Ellison, the first Muslim to be elected to Congress and a progressive socialist democrat that represents a clear and present danger to our nation with his scheme to rob the rich, pay the poor, and redistribute wealth in the best manner of socialists and communists.
Here is an e-mail I just received …
 Robin Hood Tax Bill, The Inclusive Prosperity Act, ReintroducedBacked by 172 organizations, millions of members and you. Help spread the word!Last week, Congressman Keith Ellison reintroduced the “Robin Hood Tax bill,” The Inclusive Prosperity Act, H.R. 1464.

Now, we need you to add your network, your voice, to the buzz. Imagine what our communities would have with more than $300 billion annually in new revenue. Then, let America know what’s possible.

The text of H.R.1464 has not yet been received from GPO
As this blog post is written, the actual language and text of the bill is not available … but it appears to be another wealth redistribution scheme that taxes everyone who has a savings account, pension, IRA, 401-K or any other account that deals with Wall Street transactions. All for the specious purposes of increasing entitlements to the poor as an inducement to vote for the progressive socialist democrats and fund their various social programs that are quickly running out of money due to waste, fraud, abuse, and the disincentives they create among those they purport to assist.
Bottom line …
It is significant that while Ellison was sworn into office as part of the normal and customary ceremony without the use of any religious texts, Ellison chose to perform a second and symbolic Oath of Office ceremony using a Qur'an instead of a Bible, which is somewhat problematical because the Qur’an denies the very freedoms and liberties that Ellison swore an oath to preserve, protect and defend.
Government, be it at the local, state, or federal levels has never effectively nor efficiently managed programs that did not disintegrate under incompetence, waste, fraud, and abuse. Government accounting systems – in the land where we can send a man to a precise set of coordinates on the moon – cannot seem to build a functional accounting system that is not defective by design.
Before the progressive socialist democrats get more tax money from a shrinking pool of taxpayers, let them start cutting back on unnecessary spending and curbing the waste, fraud, and abuse of programs that abounds today.
As you vote – remember, these are the progressive socialist democrats who have mismanaged our safety, security, and economy – and now they want to retain their political power, perks, privileges, and ill-gotten profits. Time for a change – vote conservative.
