How long are we going to tolerate a government that needs replacement?

05Oct2013
If the past week has shown us anything it is that our leaders in Washington, DC are about as useful as a pile of cow dung. These people have absolutely no concern for the American people and zero concern for anything but their little “political party”. This is both sides folks. Do not kid yourself that one party or the other cares more. The folks in Congress and in the White House all need to be replaced. I am not talking about elections here. I mean, replaced, now, by any means possible. Resignations, legal proceedings, impeachments, arrest. Whatever it takes to remove the entire gang of folks in the “corruption club” in Washington. They simply do not care about the constitution and their duty as servants to the people.
There is nothing wrong with the constitution, or the system itself. It is the people in charge. They have simply failed to perform as required by the constitution and their apathetic constituents have failed to remove them in a timely manner. Below is a short list of what these pin heads in Washington have done for us lately.
  • 1. The Senate has failed to present a budget for at least 5 years. This is a violation of the constitution.
  • 2. Congress passed the Affordable Healthcare Act when a majority of Americans didn’t want it.
  • 3. The President gave large corporations a delay on their participation in the ACA. He simply can’t do that. The constitution states that his duty is to “enforce all laws as passed by congress”.
  • 4. Our idiots in DC are now involved in a shutdown over the funding of Obamacare (the ACA). The President is trying to make things painful for the public by closing down open air parks/memorials and cemeteries that previously required no government supervision. The leaders of the House and Senate sound like an old married couple and the media is seeking who to blame for the shutdown, rather than asking questions about why?
  • 5. We also should not forget a government that has for years allowed the various intelligence agencies to violate the 4th amendment in the name of “national security”.
  • 6. A government that has used every trick in the book to restrict the public’s access to arms. The constant assault on an amendment that by its very design was to keep the public armed and ready should their government get out of hand.
  • 7. Let us not forget the numerous attacks on journalists by the Dept. of Justice. The attempts to quell the voice of dissent and to infringe upon the right to freedom of speech.
The list above is just the short list. There are numerous other violations of the constitution and plenty of evidence that the media is either filled with morons or in collusion with folks in DC. The press used to absolutely jump down the throats of anyone who violated the constitution in any way and now they follow the lead of those in the White House like a bunch of trained puppy dogs. The questions they ask sound like they were written by 3rd graders.
The biggest culprit it all of this is YOU the American people. Yeah you, who voted for the same guy for more than one term because you didn’t know what the new guy would do. Yes you, who has never written to his congressman to scream about every single piece of legislation you do not agree with. Yes you, who didn’t keep track of the laws they were passing because you thought the twits in DC would have your best interests at heart. Yes you, who probably hasn’t read the constitution for years and does not either have it book marked in their browser or a handy hard copy sitting on their desk. Yeah, we are all at fault and now we have got to do some serious thinking about ridding ourselves of the “corruption club” in DC or letting them destroy this country right before our eyes.

Congress is completely out of touch

02Oct2013
The American public has had Obamacare shoved down it’s throat and yet the elite few in Congress {the Corruption Club} have their own version of healthcare that assures them subsidies while the rest of us pay their bills. This is more proof of the complete disconnection of those in DC from the public which they serve.
The shutdown showdown has shown that they are not willing to give up this perk even if it means shutting down the government. This is completely unacceptable behavior and should have the American people up in arms and screaming for blood. The truth however is that we are all focused on the blame game here rather than the real issue. We have allowed a select few people to run this country as they wish, without any repercussions for their ineptitude, greed and corruption.
The cure for all this? Term limits and voter awareness. Vote out the old and vote in the new. Insist that your candidates be in favor of term limits. It is that simple. It won’t work unless we spread the word and educate our friends and neighbors that they can make a difference and that they can take back control of the government.

The Corruption Club does it again. (Congress shuts down govt)

01Oct2013
Our employees on Capital Hill have failed us again. In their usual manner of worrying about how not to lose votes in the next election they totally ignored one minor issue. They didn’t do their goddamned job.
They failed at it miserably by putting things off to the last moment and then trying to score big political points at the deadline. Were they normal employees at a regular job they would be lined up for unemployment this morning. Unfortunately we can’t fire them on the spot. We must wait for the next election to do that. But that doesn’t mean we can’t remind them of just how poorly they have done their job. Find your congressman’s and senator’s email addresses here at USA.GOV and write a short note to them. Send them just 2 words, “You’re fired”. Then sign off respectfully while telling them that no bullshit reply is necessary. If even half of america did this, it would shake them up considerably. I just popped off a short one to my US Senator. “Dear Mitch, You are fired, Thanks, Tim.” I did not send one to Rand Paul because he is one of the few good guys.
The people we have running this country are some of the most inept, corrupt and morally bankrupt people ever to serve in any government, at any time, in the history of mankind. They all (with maybe 3 or 4 exceptions) need to be replaced. We need to rethink how Congress works and how closely we monitor them. After all if we do the math, something is very hinky about their pay versus their net worth. If you serve as a Senator for 6 years and make a few hundred grand a year and do not spend a penny of it, you should be worth about $650,000, give or take a few thousand, after taxes. So why are so many reporting incomes in the multi-million dollar range? I am not accusing them of anything, just pointing out he math.
Don’t forget to email your congressional reps, do it right now. You may now return to your regularly scheduled surfing,

It is almost October and guess what? Incompetence Rules in DC

So here we go again. The bums in Congress who feed off the American taxpayer and do almost nothing to justify their existence are at it again. Turning the debt ceiling fight into the usual political drivel that occurs every year. The President and democrats will blame the republicans and the Republicans will blame the President and the democrats. They will maneuver and talk and have meetings and as usual do nothing until the last minute.
It is not like they didn’t see this coming. It happens every year and the results are predictably the same incredibly embarrassing mess that occur when those who are in charge are basically incompetent. Nothing gets done, nothing is resolved and the budget stays a complete disaster. The representatives and senators in DC use this time to get plenty of television exposure as they relay to us their plans for what to do about the impending government shutdown. We hear from the pundits who tell us the horrors of a government shutdown and how millions of folks will be affected by this doomsday scenario, which of course, congress could have avoided by doing their damned jobs on time and without politics and pet projects being the underlying reason to accomplish what we pay them to do.
The bottom line here is that we have an entrenched establishment of long time political incompetents on the payroll that we, as voters, have failed to fire. If these folks worked directly for us as employees they would have been on unemployment years ago. Instead we continue to think that maybe the replacements will be worse.
News flash here folks. Even if we elected an entire congress of brain-dead cantaloupes we would still be better off! So the next time you step into that polling booth do all of us a favor and fire the current son of a bitch that is there and vote for someone, anyone, else. Vote for Tea Party candidates, vote for that young guy or gal down the street that you know doesn’t have any “Washington, DC Experience“. When you do that and your neighbors do that and your friends do that, you will in some way shift the balance in Congress from the current idiots to new faces who will once again fear those masses of voters. Ignore the media because the talking heads on TV really don’t know crap. They are just in the business of telling you what some political group feeds them.
It is time to clean house in Washington, DC and replace the low-life dirt-bag scum currently occupying those seats with people who will answer to the public and live each and every day in fear of their jobs at the mercy of the most powerful force in America, the voters.
