"The problem is the "seniority" system. Power is put into the hands of a few people who have the ability to be re-elected. The solution? Term limits (I know, I'll put my tin foil hat on)."

"Tin foil hat" my ass. You're right, so don't apologize for it.

Term limits are the ONLY way to take a giant step toward limiting our Federal government. It has gotten way out of control (Understatement of the Week), and incumbents are fed millions by those who seek their favor.........and they keep winning. They get addicted to the power, the "glory", the............................................control.

Now, we even hear people screaming for the Feds to "bail out" all of the investors in and employees of the failed Enron Corporation. There's no such thing as a "tough break" any more that the Fed can't fix. Terrorists attack NY? EVERYBODY gets a fat check..........courtesy of the Fed. A major corporation goes tits-up? EVERYBODY gets a fat check.......................courtesy of the Fed (what, you say? no such thing has happened???.................I say to you.............hide 'n' watch).

No hurts, no ills, no pains, no troubles: Your FED is standing right behind you; robbing from the working (forget that "rich" bromide), giving to the lazy or "unfortunate" (forget that "poor" nonsense).

Our Federal Government represents nothing more than one, giant Income Redistribution Engine. Anyone who thinks otherwise, no matter WHO is in the White House, is on serious drugs.

I'm not apologizing, just said that for the blind followers of the one party, i,e,; republicrats.
You said it as well as I could re: the bail-outs of everyone except those of us who pay the bills.
