One of America's oldest, largest, most highly respected Senior's organizations, ( * * * * ), has officially declared its wholehearted support for the FairTax Plan, HR 2525, for tax reform!

All across America on this day -- in every City, Town and Hamlet -- Seniors have gathered in Town-Squares, City Halls, Auditoriuns, and other venues to show support for their leaders who are in Washington, D.C. They're there to meet with Congress and the Administration to deal with the issue of tax reform.

TV stations are providing prime coverage to this historic event... both at the local level (all 50 States) and in D.C. All of the Senior gatherings across the nation are getting solid TV coverage.

As one Reporter said, "Hey, WOW! This is the biggest gathering of Seniors since they convened to greet the boys coming home from WWII!"

Responding to a sideliner's remark, he said, "Are you kidding, pal? There is a damn good reason for prime coverage... this is real N-E-W-S!"

Reporter to sideliner: "Open your eyes, fella. Those aren't just Seniors waving those signs and placards... there's children, grand-children and even great-grand-children out there helping grandpa and grandma get their point across.

Hey, see that little toddler over there. I'll bet he's not over three years old, but he carries that sign like an ol' pro. What's it say?

* * * * Income Tax (and IRS) NO!���NO!���NO! FairTax - FairTax YES!���YES!���YES! * * * *

And, see that group of four over there dressed as a Barbershop Quartet... well, that's exactly what they are. Look further down the street and you'll see the High School Band lining-up to join the parade. Don't sell these Seniors short... when it comes to holding a 'demonstration' they are ol' pro's at the job."

Look at that will ya'? I'll bet the grey-haired granny carrying that sign is 90 years old. What's the sign say?

* * * Congress, listen-up! Enact the FairTax, or YOU get the AX! * * *

Sideliner: "Yeah, I see what you mean. This thing involves more than just a few Seniors... but, is anybody listening?"

Reporter: "Do you know why there's so many involved? It's coz everybody pays taxes... not just Seniors.

You wanna know if anybody is listening... well, turn that TV to a Cable station and let's see what's happening in D.C."

Scene changes to Washington D.C.
The leadership of the Senior organization ( * * * * ), is in Washington, D.C. They are are meeting at this very moment with Congress and the Administration to urge enactment of the FairTax Plan for tax reform.

The Spokesperson for the group tells Congress, "No more 'pussy-footing' around. It's time to get on with it and pass this long-needed legislation without further delay!" She went on to say, "Either you folks do it, or your replacements will!"

"Many of us are at the age where it won't be long before we reach the end of life's journey and move on to that big voting booth in the sky. You can be sure, however, that we have no intention of leaving before you folks fix this abominable Tax System under which we've had to suffer all these years," she staunchly proclaimed.

The 88 year-old firebrand continued, "I refuse to die before you fix it. And I don't mean by some patchwork-quilt trickery. I mean by passing the Fairtax Plan. I will not leave my grand-children and great-grand- children to suffer under this broken-down, mish-mash of a system that you people have foisted upon us.

Mark this well: I will have them carry me to the voting booth on a stretcher and, with my dying breath, VOTE YOU OUT OF OFFICE unless you get on with it and enact the Fairtax Plan. No more playing games... no more foolin' around!

I'm sorry to be so blunt about this, but I'm gonna remind you that there's an election coming-up in just a few short months this Fall. I'm sure you get the message.

In case you don't know it, I'm here representing hundreds-of-thousands of Seniors who vote... and those Seniors have literally millions of family who want to see this tax mess cleared-up without any more hemming- and-hawing on your part."

Reporter's Note:

It's obvious that this organization of Seniors has reached the limit of its patience and has made its position absolutely clear to the Congress...
in the colorful vernacular of those who made it through the Great Depression and survived WWII: Hey, Politicians, fish or cut bait!

I've been a Reporter for many, many years, but never have I seen anything like this. Somehow, I get the feeling that this is exactly what Jefferson, Madison, et al, had in mind when they spoke of citizens confronting their elected officials and calling for redress of grievances. I'll bet ol' Tom is smiling as he views this scene from his place on-high.

Look closely. Jefferson IS smiling!
