It has been said that in a republic the people get the government they deserve. Well, we are getting what we deserve - good and hard.
In 2006 the voters were mad at the Bush administration so they threw the Republicans out and put the Democrats in charge. In 2008, in spite of the fact that the course of the Iraq war had changed for the better, voters gave the Democrats larger majorities in both houses of Congress and also elected a Democrat president who had a clearly socialist agenda.
Now, after less than three months in office Tea Parties protesting the profligate spending of the Obama administration are springing up all over the country. Since voters have given the Democrats such large majorities in both houses these Tea Parties will probably not have much effect.
Voters should vote on facts not emotions. They should know by now that Democrats are the tax and spend party. We are seeing the spending right now by which the future of our children and grandchildren is being mortgaged. The taxes are yet to come and they will be huge.
There is a saying that goes, "Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me." The politicians, all of them Democrats and Republicans, have been fooling the American people over and over again for years than I can count. People say over and over that our representatives don't listen to us. Why should they listen when we march to the polls and send the same incompetents.back to Washington for term after term. Before the 2008 election Congress had an approval rating of only 12% yet almost 90% of them were re-elected. It must prove that Americans are either stupid or insane or both. People say we should have term limits. We do have term limits - It's called an election.
WISE UP AMERICA.
DON'T VOTE FOR INCUMBENTS
THIS MAKES ME FURIOUS!!!!!
