Once enough Tea Party candidates win I hope a move is made for term limits.
...”The fact that anyone would be able to be in office 40 years pisses me off”...
And that is the BIG problem. People in a bubble for that long loose comprehension of what our government is. They get busy feathering their own nest and do not give two hoots about the rest of us. They also become enamored with the D.C. culture which lives and breathes on tax payer money and big bucks from lobbyists. It sometimes feels like we are living under a big scam run by people who have never had a real job.
“Once enough Tea Party candidates win I hope a move is made for term limits. “
Absolutely correct!!, If we did not get term limits enacted we are doomed. A 30 year career in politics is NOT what the Founders intended.
The fact that anyone would be able to be in office 40 years pisses me off...Just look at the three pictures in the article. Those old bastards should have been put out to pasture about three million dollars ago.
I agree, and also do away with the lifelong retirement benefits, health care, etc.
