Democrats: Stand strong against Tea Party Republicans

From the government shutdown to the debt ceiling, Tea Party Republicans have wreaked enough havoc on our country. Democrats must stand strong -- demand a vote on a clean continuing resolution to reopen the government -- and don't capitulate on Social Security, Obamacare, or other vital programs.

Why is this important?

I am fed up and disgusted! I want the Congress members who are causing this mess to have to forfeit their salaries until this is resolved! This is pathetic!
