'KILL BILL'

Wouldn't there have to be something factored in, some sort of iron clad fail-safe number of term or term limit? A man's (or woman's) word that they "will only serve one term" should suffice, but unfortunately won't always. Even with the citizen politician - the problem has been in many cases that greed and softness took over in a short time and things got too comfy. There sure ought to be SOMETHING OF SUBSTANCE offered by a person in office, certainly more than just a big mouth. I applaud you for creating an internet vehicle that gets the truth out about the Clinton machine in such an unusual and stark way that people have to look. The Clinton garbage told in an ordinary way is so convoluted and generally boring that people in general have become acclimated and numbed to it, as well as simply exhausted and stunned by how BUSILY COMPLICATED CORRUPT the Clintons are. . it's just easier for the average Joe not to look.
Thank you. :)
You make excellent points.
Part of the problem, as I see it, is that politicos are self-selected. Mediocre, corrupt, dysfunctional, power-obsessed types with poor self-images are naturally attracted by the job description.
Anyone who wants the job is a priori unqualified. A possible solution would be to institute a search/nominating process, something akin to that used for university presidents.
thanx :)
About the only thing these professional politicians have going for them is usually, as with the Clintons, a large amount of gift of gab and blarney as well as a background in "speech" class in high school - where they are taught to be the devil's adovocate and argue both sides of some issue. - They have such well-oiled corrupt machines that they are able to dig up a bit of dirt on just about any candidate or their families and spend lots of money for slick commercials to inflate and misrepresent it. Candidates would have to be squeaky clean right on back to Adam to ever stand a chance of beating out these parasites. It IS ridiculous that such important jobs as are involved in running this government have been left to absolute phonies, crooks, momma's boys, and undisciplined and unskilled people. The voting public needs to be educated (somehow) to the need for skilled, productive in their own private lives, candidates and for the need to get rid of the dead wood parasites that are so abundant in all areas of governance. - These politicos you speak of are all so tiring in their self-described "public service" whining about how much they "sacrifice".
You are showing caricatures of the Clintons that look more like WHAT THEY REALLY ARE in my opinion than what we see of them in their publicity photo-ops. However, having said that, even in their most glamourous photo-ops, neither of them is all THAT. I have never understood their appeal from the get-go. Maybe it's because I'm a lifelong southerner and can spot a full of crap, phony, "good old boy" facade a mile away. It's not just the ubiquitous Clintons, of course, that I'm speaking of - it's way to many of them in Washington, although those two have it down to the finest science I have ever seen. One consolation I have is that, being 60 yrs. old myself, about the same age as the Clintons, I fully understand - they had better make good on their corrupt schemes (and the Clinton Dynasty has not materialized as planned) because their time is running out at warp speed. . and then they have to answer for it.
bump! I love the way you put it. ;)
We no longer have the luxury of time or circumstance to abide these crooks and fools.
We had better overhaul the way we choose our leaders. And fast.

Mia, thanks for the organized links . . I'm going to read as I can get time. . it is so right that this country CANNOT survive another Clinton Administration . . indeed, the big question is CAN AMERICA EVEN SURVIVE the one we did have? . .
bottom line . . for anyone who is not aware . . this buffoon jerk (hello? anyone from DU who is lucid and listening!! ahh . . forget that!!) SOLD (for a mess of pottage) nuclear technology that was used for making bombs by raving fanatical dictators. . and now, we have to pray for deliverance from the destruction they may well rain down upon our literal heads as a result of the unbridled ambitions of these two self-important, self-appointed, cynical socialists.
What would the founding fathers say now, what would they say?! More important, WHAT WOULD THEY DO? Their only consolation at this juncture is that they're mercifully safe from the bombs and spared the spectacle of the Clinton debacle. The big question now really is WILL THE ACTIONS OF ONE DEGENERATE MAN destroy this country??!! (Here's a clue . . there are leaders and countries who are NEVER going to PRETEND TO LIKE the United States except when there are sly buffoons for sale in power in the highest offices willing to sell them the means WHERBY TO PHYSICALLY, LITERALLY DESTROY THE UNITED STATES!
