I am convinced more than I ever have been....the ONLY way this get's straightened out...is TERM LIMITS.

The best way to impose term limits is to vote the bums out. The problem is that too many voters don't perceive their own representatives as a bum and therefore, they continue to return them to office. Voting the bums out may mean that we have to cross party lines from time to time, but the way I see things, with few exceptions, there aren't a lot of differences between the Republicans in Congress and the Democrats in Congress, as a whole: Despite having a Republican in the White House and a Republican majority in both the House and the Senate for the last six years, spending is out of control, entitlements continue to expand, school choice remains a dream, the tax code is as complicated as ever, wetbacks continue to invade our Country at a record pace, pork remains the favorite food on Capital Hill, a comprehensive energy plan remains elusive, and too many so-called Republicans support a womans' right to murder her baby.

If we want to hold our elected officials accountable for their conduct, then we need to show them that they are dispensible and that we are prepard to vote them out even if that means breaking ranks with our party.

I disagree....

As obviously that hasn't worked...

Not saying it couldn't...just saying it hasn't.

Therefore...IMO...it's come to TERM LIMITS.

We TERM LIMIT the POTUS...

We now TERM LIMIT many State Reps...it's past time to enact TERM LIMITS in both houses on the hill.
