Hello people, I am absolutely outraged by the way our elected leaders secretly cut backroom deals with one another, make trades for votes like it is the NFL trading season, over-ride our objections to their whims like we are small children meant only to be seen and not heard! This IS NOT what our forefathers envisioned for us in time of elections. This IS Not a Democratic way to run our Government, our Country, and I am mad as hell! I find this not only appalling, undignified and unbecoming of an elected official, but also bordering on the edges of treason as well! I want to know America; Where is your anger? Where is Your outrage at what we are historically witnessing? These people who took an oath to God, Country, and Duty to represent, have lied not only to you and I, but to the good name of offices of which they were elected to, as well! They seeming act as though they are above the law, flouting their acts of grievances openly as if to dare anyone to challenge them. This is a stain on our American values, this is a crime against Democracy, and it is absolutely repugnant to all who call their selves Americans! So I ask you again America; where is your outrage? Have we become so infantile, so dumbed down, so pathetic, that we find our selves unable to react to the atrocious behavior of those who have miserably failed to represent us? We need to find it within ourselves to hold these people who refuse to listen to our wishes, our voices, our values, completely and totally accountable! For far too long they have gotten away with doing as they wish, not what we wish! It is time people, it is now time to make your voices heard, not theirs! It is time to find your outrage, your anger, your duty; to God, Country and Honor!
Yeah good question...the only few notables I hear raising any real outrage are on talk radio and Fox which the MSM has totally marginalized and reduced to nothing more than "entertainment"....
When people approach an election campaign with greater sophistication than a junior high school pep rally, we might begin to see some changes in the results.
The contempt for both our Constitution, the rule of law, and the Republic is evident in the chicanery practiced in Washington D.C., especially of late, and this should NEVER be forgotten, especially when the next ballots are cast. Throwing out the entire Congress, with rare exception, would be a darned good start.
