I am pretty sure that I am as angry as anyone about the way our leaders have handled the most important issues of our day. I do not agree with the terms set out in the debt ceiling compromise. I could even spend all day discussing what I do not like about President Obama. However...
President Obama just asked us to call congress and tell them to pass a compromise to increase the debt ceiling. It is time to swallow my anger and man up. Even if I do not like the results he has achieved so far, Obama is a Democratic President and he sent out a request that we make a two minute phone call to congress and tell them to raise the debt ceiling.
I can make that call. Hell I will probably call ten or twenty times today. Then I will call my friends and family and tell them it is time to do the same. Whatever your grievances with the President or the Democrats, you can make that call too. Even say don't you dare touch Social Security and Medicare. Once you're done, come back write a diary about how disappointed you are with whatever.
President Obama asked us to call congress and tell them to vote on a compromise debt sealing deal. MAKE THE CALL!
