I wish the dems would all get on the same page
It appears what has happened is somehow the wrong people were voted in . Do the Democrats think that many of their decisions won't somewhere down the line affect them ? If there is a vote to be made and they don't all agree wouldn't it be better if they just made their stand and all vote the same way or not show up at all .

It is beyond the point of how they look to their state , isn't this the united states so lets get united and stop blowing it , if not then perhaps they should just get the hell out of the senate and go get one of those grand jobs americans don't want , they must have a list of these somewhere , I certainly can't find one around here , it seems most jobs fall into the category of jobs americans don't want as far as I can see .

These people work as well as a car without a steering wheel and no brakes hauling down the freeway at 105 .

It does not matter one bit to me what their sexual preference is or if they attend church or anything else . All they have to do is the job we pay them for , we do pay them right or have I got this wrong . Any other job does require you do what you are paid for or you get fired . Perhaps they should all be on the same 90 day trial run most of us are forced to deal with , within 90 days you screw up you are out so don't get to settled in and go without insurance too . Same rules apply to the criminal re pugs , commit a crime you sit behind bars and set the bail and loose your position until you are prov en innocent .

I have never seen anything like this before and it's time the people set the rules for their employees in the house and senate . And this life term for a judge , get rid of that , people get old they become distant , get involved with the wrong people and yet we are stuck with them for life . Such a deal , a lifetime position , no one on earth has this , no one . Who judges the judges ? People are said to live alot longer today than ever before so adjust for this , make it a 10 year term with a 2 year probation period .

1. If sane people voted in their own best interests, it would be 90%
Democratic. There are a probably 30%-40% who don't have any idea which party is which and what the whole thing is all about. Go out sometime and do a precinct walk, you wouldn't believe how stupid the public really is.

6. Oh I know how people are
That is the frightening part , most people I talk to say right out they don't follow politics and others who should know better who are'nt stupid live in a dream world saying to me , what this tv program or that one , these make me feel good and positive dreamig how the world should be . Well this certainly helps , I makes me feel like I am all alone here living around people in a trance . If there were ever a time to wake up this is it .

4. What was it that Will Rogers Said?
I don't belong to any organized political party - I'm a Democrat (or something along those lines).

5. I'd Be Happy If We Were All Reading the Same Book, Even!
Some people are so out to lunch that it's frightening.
