This is the last thing I wanted to talk about before Labor Day weekend, but you gotta hear this:

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin just joined the "Defund Obamacare" movement -- a group of people, including 80 members of Congress, who are willing to sabotage the economy because they don't like Obamacare.

This is the kind of reckless nonsense President Obama is up against in trying to pass a smart budget that actually grows the economy for the middle class.

OFA is here to fight back -- because when it comes down to it, I doubt the American people are going to like hearing that people are threatening to shut down the government instead of passing a budget.

For the sake of our national sanity, we're asking people to stand up and be a voice of reason -- add your name to join the fight against this reckless plan.

Congress has a budget deadline of September 30th.

All next month, OFA is going to push Congress to consider President Obama's plan for the country -- one that focuses on creating jobs and growing the economy, instead of scoring political points.

We'll be calling out the radical members of Congress for their recklessness -- and asking John Boehner to be a leader and stand up to his colleagues.

Because if our representatives don't know that there's a price to pay for this kind of nonsense, it's not ever going to stop.

Add your name today -- and join the fight:

I've known a few toddlers in my day.

Right now, some members of Congress are getting awfully close to acting like them.

Here's the plan that more than 80 members of the House just endorsed: stop all funding for Obamacare, or shut down the government.

That's right: If they don't get their way, they're vowing to sabotage the economy.

I can't believe it's come to this. But if real voices of reason don't emerge in this debate, this nonsense could go a lot farther than it should in Washington.

Chip in $X or more right now to stand up and fight back against this reckless plan right now:

What's really bad is that the "Defund Obamacare" movement isn't a group of people concerned about the actual health care of Americans, or funding our government efficiently.

They're just folks who are acting like children who think they can get their way just by stomping their feet and covering their ears.

Congress has a budget deadline of September 30th.

All next month, OFA will be leading the charge in calling on our representatives in Washington -- especially Speaker John Boehner.
