Like you, the leadership, staff, donors and friends of American Crossroads share a deep love for all that America represents – and a deep concern about the direction we are headed in.
Our economy is now in the grip of European-style unemployment. Our national debt still spirals out of control, fueled by Washington’s expense-account mentality. Our power and standing in the world are now openly challenged. We are on the brink of leaving the next generation of Americans a far less secure, strong and prosperous country than we ourselves have enjoyed.
Instead of confronting these challenges with realistic solutions, President Obama and his allies in Congress stubbornly cling to the same destructive policies that drove us into this economic and fiscal morass: Backbreaking tax increases. Job-destroying regulatory harassment. And gross fiscal incompetence.
In 2012, America will choose between President Obama’s politics of permanent decline and a new era of strength, security and growth. Barack Obama obstinately blames everyone but himself for the 14 million Americans who can’t find work, the most anemic economy since the 1970s and the largest run-up in federal government debt in America’s entire history.
Now, Americans are joining together to say that Barack Obama’s blame game is over. It’s time for accountability and results. It’s time we had a president as great and big-hearted as America itself. And it’s time we had majorities in both the House and the Senate that are 100% dedicated to rescuing our economy from the Obama agenda, restoring health to our financial balance sheet and making America the strong, vigilant world leader we once were and must always be.
Our country is always at its best when its citizens—not self-serving politicians in Washington—are in control of its future. That is the vision American Crossroads is designed to serve. In 2010, we helped Main Street Americans take ownership of their government, throw out tax-and-spend incumbents in droves, break the Obama-Pelosi-Reid power monopoly, and move America in a positive conservative direction.
We gave Americans the tools – information, facts, voter turnout support – and Americans rose to the occasion, as we always do.
Well, America is still at a crossroads, and it’s time to do it again.
Don’t leave your kids a country that is less strong, secure and proud than the one you and I inherited.
Join the cause.
Thanks,
Steven Law
President
