"Mr. Speaker... STOP IT."

     Watch this video. Judge Andrew Napolitano reads his open letter to the Speaker of the House of Representatives about the debt ceiling. Every American should see this.
     The letter ends with an empassioned plea to Speaker Boehner:

     "Mr. Speaker, you have the opportunity to do something that no standard bearer of small government has ever been able to do in our modern era; get the government to live within its means.  You can do it by standing firm with your colleagues in the Congress who are leading the call for change.  You can stop it.  You can force the Federal Government to make the difficult decisions to bring itself within its means and begin to loosen the chains of debt that have been foisted on our country by a centuries worth of progressive big-government architects.  End it this summer, Mr. Speaker.  Stop it.  Tell the President, “not a penny more.”  Stand up for the American people, bring government within its means, and begin the restoration of our republic. If you do this Mr. Speaker, if you restrain the federal beast, you will become one of history’s great champions and heroes of freedom.  If you don’t, we‘ll all go through this again the next time a president wants to spend beyond the government’s means and chain us all down to more debt."
