They just blame someone else or finger Wall Street or Big Business. Blame them for what? For being in compliance with the rules that they, the Congress, are responsible for putting into law? Give 'em all their pink slips. ======= Maybe the answer is term limits so they only have to be concerned about re-election once or twice. The real problem is campaign finance of course. ------------- No question, but as you know that would be harder to pass as a Constitutional Amendment than increasing the debt ceiling or health care reform. The pols argue that it takes them several terms to develop the political clout to "make things happen". How can we possibly trust a group that votes themselves automatic pay raises every year that only a special vote can prevent. How can we possibly trust a group that gets the best health care programs available to anyone on the face of the earth while the people they represent are going broke trying to pay for theirs? How can possibly trust a group that has fat pension plans for life simply because they make promises and deliver nothing? Anyone with a job evaluation report like theirs' in the real world would be canned in a nanosecond. A simpler solution is for voters to invoke De facto term limits by not reelecting them term after term after term. Shake it up and prevent long term deals and alliances to special interests to develop. But everyone hails the politician who brings the pork home. Everyone wants to feed from the trough, no one wants to pay for the feed. Campaign finance and lobbying reform would do the trick but it'd take an act of God for those who've invested so much in the present system to dissolve it. |

Hey, lefty liberal fleabaggers want to discard conservative values of rationality, logic and integrity but bitch when reality smacks them in the face. Reality always wins, even if they are fleabaggers. Fact is those with discipline, drive, self motivations go-getters are going to get ahead and the lazy undisciplined nothing to offer types larders are going to fall behind. The gap is going to get worse as fleabaggers worship and vote for big fat pandering expensive government. Fleabaggers are in denial of the raw fact, government can solve the problem because government is the problem. Fleabaggers are so stupid, they worship what causes their grief. -- Eat the rich, screw the companies and wonder why there are no jobs. But we have big huge government we can't afford... -- Obama and the lefty fleabagger attitude |
