Despite my desire to celebrate to some extent the comeuppance that President Soetoro and his cronies got the other night, I'm still filled with the realization that it wasn't only the Democrats who are to blame for the mess this country is in right now. The devastation of the economy, the lack of moral compass, the loss of so many good jobs, the banking crisis, the bailouts and even the stimulus are all the result of both parties, their leaders and the destructive policies they put into place.
Socialist President Soetoro has done his best to turn our country into a Marxist State but, thankfully, the voters, the commonsense citizens of America have repudiated him and his policies. Time will only tell if this country can be salvaged and we can get back to some form of the America many of us grew up in. The country of promise, of imagination and excellence may or may not be able to be saved but it behooves us all to try. The election on November 2nd was a starting point. It's up to us to keep it going.
It's rug cutting time. Time to shit or get off the pot. It's do or die time. Please feel free to add your favorite cliche here. But seriously folks it's the day of perhaps the most important election in American History. This is the time that the average citizens can begin to reclaim their country from the crooks, liars and thieves who have stolen it from us for the past 40 years. It is time to get out there and reclaim what is rightfully ours and put these lifetime crooked shysters out of work.
If you consider yourself a caring American, concerned for the future of this nation, you need to get your self out to the polls and vote. Hopefully, you have done so already since many are already closed. If you like to bitch and you didn't vote then, as the title of this post says, you need to STFU.
It is my hope that voters know what and whom they are voting for in every election but, I know better. Too many times people are too loyal to a party or candidate for all the wrong reason or they vote for someone without really having a clue of what they stand for. I am hopeful, with all that has been going on this year, people have gotten themselves more informed.
What I am sure of is that if we continue on the path the Democrats and Obama are leading us on right now, our country as we know it will not survive. Six more years of Democrat control, including another four of Obama will put this country so far behind the eight ball, we will never see the light of day again. If the Republicans win as predicted they will have their feet placed on the fire immediately and they should know they will only have one term before they too will be booted. This has the makings of a very historic night and a real chance to save America. Let's hope we did.
With all the violence that is going on south of the border, I'm wondering how much of an idiot someone has to be to take their family anywhere in that country for a vacation. There have been numerous incidents of massacres, shooting and beheadings in Mexico since the explosion of the drug war a few years back. Yet I hear friends and strangers talk of going to various places in that country for vacation. To me it's like going to North Korea or Iran, I would never do it for any amount of money. It appears that our government, likes to pretend that the violence in Mexico is controlled and only occurs in very specific locations that vacationers can easily avoid. What a joke! The truth is the violence there is spreading and will only get worse in the future, not only in Mexico but, in some U.S. cities north of the Rio Grande. You can keep your Punta Cana, Yucatan Peninsula and all the rest. If I want to go on an international vacation I think I will go to Canada, Ireland or someplace a bit safer.
Initially, my feeling is to vote against all incumbents in office longer than two terms for a Senator or 12 years for a member of the House. This amounts to the same amount of time because the Senate has six year terms while the House has two year terms.
After seeing the damage done by long term incumbents of both parties, I think is is essential that we vote against any how try to remain in power longer than 12 years.
Unfortunately, there will be some good people that will have to go under this plan but, looking at he big picture, it is better for the country to limit time in office even if the person is doing well. There is just too much power built up be some of these long time office holders much to the detriment of the country.
I don't think any of them will favor term limits enough to pass legislation to make it law so they need a push by the voters to get out. This coming election, take a long look at the candidates running in your region and if they have been in too long, then vote for the other guy regardless of political party.
Hopefully, the upcoming election will be a message to all politicians regardless of party. It's time we the citizens make it clear that nobody is or ever will be safe again. Enough of the bullsh*t where you make all these promises and then get in there and do what you want anyway. Try that stuff and you will be booted out at the next opportunity. Keep spending like a drunken sailor and you will be booted. Use your office for personal gain..........booted. Don't take the time to listen to your bosses (us), you will be booted. We don't care if you are a Democrat or a Republican..............booted.
Try to run for a 3rd term or stay in office longer than 10 or 12 years and we will boot you out. No more life terms with all the perks and benefits indefinitely.
I truly hope that this upcoming election will fulfill the potential that it has to be a game-changer. J
ust like Dorothy Gale always had the power to go back to Kansas, we the people always had the power to put an end to the nonsense in Washington and we are finally going to use it.
