A return to comon sense
Today's Politics By Freedomlover ^ | July 12,2009 | genethefactoryworker

It seems to me that what America needs today -and needs badly- is a return to good old "Common Sense". during the revolutionary period pamphleteers and broadsiders were the equivalent of today's blogger and perhaps one of the most influential of those pamphleteers was Thomas Pain and his "Common Sense".

Today's government has become a bloated behemoth, and the politicians that populate the halls of congress and the Anointed one in the White house, seem to think their are no limits to how much power they can seize to themselves, and no limit on how much they can oppress the American people.

your right it is definitely nonexistant in Washington. But the people at least half still have a good measure of it.
