Stand up and say ENOUGH!

Just sent this to Democrats: I have contributed money. But we need to do more than contribute money. We need to reawaken the silent majority. While we listen to the angry, insulting, racist, threatening screaming diatribes most Americans shake their heads and worry. Now it is time to stop shaking our heads and start speaking. It is time for Democrats – and Republicans – to start taking vocal and public stands and say ENOUGH! Enough of the threats of assassinations. Enough of the racial insults. Enough of the gay bashing. Enough of the bricks thrown into windows. Enough of the non-stop lies about what the legislation does. Enough of the distortions. Enough of members of Congress acting like children and spoiled brats. It is time for them to engage in intelligent, deliberative debate that involves listening to all sides, quietly and with the single goal of reaching an agreement on the best route that will serve all of the people. These are bad times that require good intentions. These are bad times that require dedication of the whole for the whole, not of the few or the special interests or the special egos or any one party. This is not time for any more division and the American people have had enough. It is the responsibility of all of our leaders to start leading, start speaking up and start insisting on decorum.
