Tea Party Republicans: Stop holding the country hostage!

From the government shutdown to the debt ceiling, Tea Party Republicans have wreaked enough havoc on our country. Stop holding the country hostage to further your political gains; vote on a clean budget resolution and raise the debt ceiling without demanding cuts to Social Security, Obamacare, or any other vital programs.

Why is this important?

My son-in-law is being furloughed. He is working on national security projects, which were approved by the Congress! How can he pay his bills, including his mortgage? That is for starters; he has a young family and now must scale back on his purchases, thus jeopardizing the economy. He is proud but he may have to ask us for money, which he does not want to do.
