It's time to fire them all.
Go to the polls and VOTE THEM OUT. ANYONE else running against your congress critter is fair game.
OUT with the OLD, in with the NEW. Send a message. Don't keep ANY OF THEM!
What he said!
This should be nailed to the entrance to Congress and the Senate, just like Luther’s Theses.
Of such great sentiments - and facts - are revolutions made.
Your strongly worded letter to people with a similar point of view should do the trick.
Hey, I know, how about instead of writing letters to other true-belivers in the choir, you convince 3, 4 or 5 people in your life to vote with you who might otherwise not - and make sure they get to the polls on election day.
Now THAT would be a message.
Get a grip. I'm sick of this nonsense. There are some people in Congress who've been standing up for our country and for us, and half of FR is ready to kick them to the curb because "fire them all" is a snappy slogan and investing the thought necessary to distinguish between the innocent and the guilty might get in the way of their self-indulgent, therapeutic raging.
Nice rant and very well done. “Liberty, Freedom and Justice” are such novel ideas. ;>)
Regrettably, I don’t share your faith that any of this is going to get turned around without a Second American Revolution.
I see 2010 as the last chance and it may turn things around, but if it doesn’t, 2012 will not likely be a bloodless election.
Of course, the way things have been going, We The People may not wait for the next election. As ugly as that sounds, we are being forced to the edge of a cliff.... I for one, refuse to be pushed into the abyss.
At any rate, this is going to be a most interesting and very trying year for all of us.
“Liberty, Freedom and Justice” must win out by whatever means necessary and at any cost. Failure is not an option.... regardless of what it takes to succeed.
So as I see it, pray and labor for the bloodless ballot to work, but be prepared to deal with the worst, as it may truly be just around the next bend in the road.
One more tidbit that we are not in total agreement on, “It’s time to fire them all”.
That might look good on a sign and there are days when that seems like it’s the direction we should go... but there are still a few statesmen left and a few patriots that are breaking their butts to turn this sinking ship around.
We need to be picky, but lets not throw out the very guys and gals that are actually doing their jobs... we need them.
(I Hit your homepage). When I went to Osborn in the late 70’s the Sargent in JROTC said you would get half pay if you stayed in for 20 years.
Clymers!!!!
What a stupid post.
3 of our 5 congressmen here in San Diego are great Conservative Republicans,
Marine Col. Duncan Hunter, Darrell Issa and Brian Bilbray.
There are many other great Conservative Republicans.
I want these people serving with their seniority and experience.
We are at war and this is no time for beginners.
What you are telling voters to do, if you have a broken foot, cut off both legs.
John McCain wasn't an obvious setup for Barack Obama, a black (only half so) President?
George W. Bush wasn't party to allowing Mexican illegals, who pay no taxes, no military obligation, no community commitment, to invade the United States?
The United States couldn't be totally energy independent from the rest of the World by using it's own internal nuclear, fossil, geothermal,renewable, resources?
Third or even fourth party candidates (including Ralph Nader, like him or not) are barred from national debate in national elections?
Bill Clinton was left off the hook, after getting blow jobs from a subordinate in the national office, by Republicans?
Sarah Palin, one of the few courageous enough to go rogue, isn't blasted from all quarters, including Republicans?
Conservative candidates, like Rubio, are not shut out of national funding?
The Secretary of State has not lain down the law to the nation of Mexico for its invasion?
The Republicrat Party is a consciously planned authoritarian mandate over the citizens who pay its very salaries. And you can start with the CFR. The majority of the American voters have become the stupidest most feckless society that has ever lived on that well defined national soil (witness Minnesota and Al Franken) to allow this to happen. Shades of the Communist and Nazi Parties.
Free Enterprise could provide every possible service at half the cost (in tme, money, and human dignity) of authoritarian leftist government. All it takes is a sense of moral responsibility.
A profound historical tragedy - the Bicameral Wave.

Next time there’s a bank robbery; be sure to arrest everyone in the building — robbers, staff and customers alike. Be sure to include the night watchmen and janitors. Just for good measure, lock up any cops or emergency workers, who were foolish enough to show up at the site of the crime.
Jeez. Not one House Republican voted for Obama’s economic stimulus plan and only 1 voted for Pelosi’s Health Care Plan.
A voice crying in the wilderness.
You see, unlike the Republicans, the democrats have a guaranteed 42 seats every election and in 2010, the census will permit the democrats to draw new districts. Imagine the fun they will wrought!
I'm completely in favor of booting entrenched fossils who refuse to retire on their own, but that has to be done during primary races.
Agreed - Congress is the most corrupt group of people in the world (apologies to the Mafia). However, even if you fire all of them, eventually they will be replaced by people who are just as corrupt. So we, the people, need common-sense laws that will protest us from government. These are described at http://pushbackuntil.com/Mandates.htm.
Repeal the 17th....

Restore original congressional apportionment from current 1:500000 to 1:30000.
This WILL limit consensus to the most important issues potentially affecting the state of the union...and not whether or not to treat granny’s hemmarroids...or “allow nature to take its course”
