You and me both. And at the same time, I look at all the men and women who have died to protect what America is and was intended to be by its founders, and the rage just keeps building in me as I watch the traitorous clowns in Washington make a mockery of all of it

Sheesh why don't you start your own forum, "Fatalists R Us.com".

Do you also object to the fact that it worked for the children of Israel who also sighed and groaned?
Ex. 3 and 5 continue the story and show that it paid to do all of those things because they constitute prayer.

Exodus 2:23-25 -
23 "And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage. 24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them."

Perhaps you have been enriched by the "evolution" of our politics so it benefits you if it is even more corrupt.
Perhaps you are merely blind to the differences. In either case you will have what you admire to the full.
