The ultimate political accountability is elections.

People get the government they deserve.

Yep.

I used to pray, “Lord, please don’t give us the leaders we deserve.”

But that’s just what we’ve gotten now.

And now we deserve to suffer for our choices.

Accountability is great until you screw up and it bites you.

He may be.
However, I think that it goes deeper than that. I think that within twp years of the Obama dictatorship, concentration camps will be erected and those of us that oppose his doctrines and those of the ‘elected’ Congress and Senate (Democrats All) will be incarcerated and eventually murdered. Just as the concentartion camps of the 30’s in Nazi Germany were used to get rid of those who originally opposed Hitler.
If you think that I'm overboard on this read up on how Hitler cemented his power. Then they started on Jews, Jehova Witnesses, Gypsies.

I totally agree with you.

The only thing liberals lack at the moment is the power to do it. But I routinely hear liberals making claims that conservatives should be marginalized and, yes, even “reeducated” or locked up.

They want to. And the moment they can do it, they will.

Look at what atheists are saying about Christians. We’re not just insane, we’re evil. And we’re “indoctrinating” our children (cause we don’t abort ours, you know) and ruining the planet. Something must be done.

Right outa the Book of Revelation and the Antichrist.

What was it that Maxine Waters said about the Oil Industry?

Doc,

Interesting tidbit to remember. You know, I’m actually old enough to REMEMBER way back in August of ought seven when Maxine Waters said that. Boy, it was really scandalous back in them days!

Now, of course, statements like that are quite the yawner, now that we’ve pretty much socialized the whole damn economy.

Pretty amazing how low we’ve sunk, aint it?

When you say we, It's the Democratic Party Majority this is the culprit. They are the National Socialist Party of American. They used to be called NAZI Fascists in the 30’s and 40’s. Nazi Fascists were just Marxists dressed in different names.
I'd like to check that quote again. I think that Ms. Waters stated that during 2008 hearings about the high price of oil when it was reaching $130.00/barrel.
But I could be wrong.
BTW, Isn't Waters a big fan of Hugo Chavez?

I agree with you on one level, and disagree on another.

I didn’t vote for these clowns or their policies. And you won’t find me among the supporters of any of the earlier massive government “stimulus” spending under Bush. It isn’t my fault.

But America as a country voted for these rat bastards. And as long as I live here, I - and you - are going to share in the misery. In other words, it’s not like the sun will shine in Republicans’ yards and it will hail on Democrats’ yards.

In that sense, “we” are responsible for this. “We” as a country voted for these awful leaders, and now America is going to pay horribly for it.

It can also be said that there were more democrats that voted against the measure than there were republicans that voted for it.

Good point.

The “bipartisan” vote was against the bill, not for it.

You are definitely correct.
But isn't it up to ALL Americans to repair the mistakes we've made.
Allowing the Progressive Left to run rough shod over us is not right. It is our duty and responsibility to correct the path we are taking.
Seems like Americans have forgotten that it's The people not the government that runs this country.
