Thursday’s Task – Our Battle Plan

UPDATE: We’re reposting this same task until it’s over.  Until the current health care reform bills are defeated.  Until cap and trade is dead.  Until all those things that are destroying our liberty and freedom are gone.  Until we know that those responsible will not be reelected.
We at TfTL are equal opportunity term limiters.  We [...]

The Case for Term Limits – Bad Legislation

The Case for Term Limits was bolstered by the revelation this week that much of the data used to show the effectiveness of the stimulus package was faked.  “Jobs created or saved” were “created” in districts that don’t exist.
First, those responsible should be fired.  Anyone caught making up data should be fired for either being [...]

Joseph Cao

The debate over health care reform has really lead to us having some mixed feelings.  On the one hand, the Founding Fathers were afraid of mob rule and were fearful of “pure” democracy being not much different than a mob. At TfTL, we agree with the sentiment. The idea is that a good [...]

Patrick’s Health Care Reform Plan

Today we’re going to divert from our usual anti-incumbent pro-voter driven term limit theme and discuss health care.  There seems to be a disconnect between the polls and the politicians.  Nothing new here…the politicians are doing what they want to do.  Of course, we use this as a reason to vote them out.  It’s not [...]

Thurday’s Term Limit Task 10

This is part of Thursday's Term Limit Task» Today’s Term Limit Task is a bit self serving.  But we have a purpose.
Today’s task is to buy some Term Limit Task Gear.  Buy a bumper sticker or 10.  Buy a shirt.  With winter coming, buy a hoodie.  Get something.  While not a TfTL item, buy a [...]

New Jersey Term Limit Victory

We salute the citizens of New Jersey for doing the right thing and term limiting Governor Jon Corzine from another term in office.  Corzine had been the CEO of Goldman Sachs and has ties to Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson.  Unpopular from the beginning, he’s fought an uphill battle to win the hearts of the citizens [...]

Department of Energy

Today we’re introducing a new feature to TfTL, “Found and Forwarded.” These are articles that are forwarded to us, or found across the interwebs that highlight the absurdity of government, particularly the actions of congress. Our first comes by way of S. Smith of Salt Lake City, Utah.

Olympia Snow

UPDATE – 10/13/09 : Olympia Snow breaks ranks and votes the Backus health care reform bill out of committee. Clearly, she’s not only out of step with her party, but the majority of the US population and most likely her own constituents.

Last week (Feb. 13, 2009), three republican senators broke with their party and “negotiated” with the democrats to help pass the massive $800,000,000,000 “stimulus” package. For their courage we present their names for you to not re-elect. Three term republican Senator Olympia Snow was one of them.

The Case for Term Limits – Damage Control

Virtually every member of the Senate or House who has ethics “issues” (to put it lightly) has served for many terms. They are career politicians. Some have been in some form of public office for most of their adult life. Let’s limit the damage they can do.

The Case for Term Limits – Turn Over

The Founding Fathers knew what they were doing and created a fantastic system. It is our arrogance, or more to the point, the arrogance of our elected officials that think they have a better system.
