Did I read this correctly?

Hi

Every so often I read or hear of some hair brained idea, this morning was such an occasion. I am referring to a blog I read which quoted North Carolina Democratic Governor Bev Perdue. Apparently Ms Perdue made a speech to a civic group and in the speech the governor called for the suspension of elections for our federal congress. The reason given is that because of our national economic crisis, if we suspend elections for congress, the members of said body could devote the time to fix our broken economy.

My first reaction is to ask the governor if she ever heard of the United States Constitution? We are a constitutional republic and our governing constitution clearly defines how we elect officials. We should not take this lightly. It begs the question. "In the future how do we define a crisis?" Activist judges, congress itself, or perhaps the executive branch by fiat. I don't give a damn which party is in control, I do not want that kind of government. The way to fix our economic woes is by reining in government.

Another question which I would pose to Governor Perdue, "Congress had a major part in causing the ruination of our economy, do you really believe that giving the SAME PEOPLE more power can be helpful? I would hope that the voters of North Carolina elected a governor with more common sense that what Ms Perdue has espoused.

The cure is simple, vote out all the self serving politicians who have made a seat in congress a lifetime appointment. That is the answer, not some mushy hair brained scheme which does nothing. Governor Perdue I call on you, in your position of governor, to call for our politicians of both parties to act like grown ups. Solve the problem or quit congress. We used to say, "Fish or cut bait." That adage still applies.

Please continue to pray for the safety of our serving members of the armed forces.
GOD Bless
