Puma Eyes has the right idea, IMO. At this point, the pols know just how to use and exploit the public for their own political gain. They spout a few talking points, get photo-ops with the right people, garner the support of a few wealthy individuals and/or groups, and get themselves elected and re-elected. This happens in both parties. How gratifying it would be to see a massive movement to unseat those pols whose actions are self-serving rather than in the best interest of the country. Granted, that would be all of them, but so be it. Lessons would be learned quickly. They work for us. We hired them, and we can fire them.
VOTE ALL THE LIARS OUT! Posted on September 16, 2009
This isn’t rocket science. In order to remove the President & current members of Congress they must lose in the next election. We have to vote in a revolutionary way. We have to simply identify who has the best chance of defeating the incumbents and throw all our votes to them. Throw money to the strongest challengers campaign. Yes, even if it makes you sick to do so. We all have to realize effective medicine always tastes bad, really bad. It’s what we have to swallow if we want to heal our nation.
We all need to make up our minds and make them up fast. Do we want to save this country? Do we really? It’s not going to happen all by itself. Everyone needs to come to grips with whether it’s more important to cling to their political identity, the hollow conviction that left is better than right when the evidence is right in front of our faces shouting “It makes no difference!”
• Politicians only pretend they have ideological convictions in order to make us believe that voting for one party or the other is going to make some big difference. This splits the power of our votes right down the middle and virtually ensures incumbents win every single time. To them, it’s a game and we fall for it every time. It’s a pure game of numbers for the powers-that-be. Very few members of Congress have any ideological values other than, “What’s in it for me?” If you want a peaceful revolution we have to do something revolutionary. • If we can get huge numbers of people to understand out voting strategy and get them to the polls to do it, we can remove the bulk of the current Congress. WE CAN . . . with your conviction and your help.
The Bald-faced Lie of “No Taxes for the middle class” will ring hollow when the AMERICAN PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE POLITICAL ISLE see the size of the huge tax increases the politicians who never seem to have to pay their own taxes are going to stick us with. BTW, has anyone in Washington actually defined “middle class”.
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union.... Men, their rights and nothing more; women, their rights and nothing less. ~Susan B. Anthony
