Politics Seems to be BULLSHIT!


I only got involved in politics about 2 years ago. But what I've learned so far climbing "up the ranks" and that's not saying much to where I am...but it all still seems to be BULLSHIT! From local, to state, and then to national politics, all I see so far is one against another, and what will benefit whom?

What MY FOLKS taught me 46 years ago was who COULD benefit whom - and THAT meant helping one another - it meant FAIRNESS - it meant FISCAL responsibility, and it MEANT that ANYBODY that GOT elected could at least add 2 + 2! It meant that when we elected or appointed an official, THEY would ACTUALLY REPRESENT the PEOPLE! TODAY - NOTHING - NOW who can benefit who means who gets pay back on what someone donated to them, or which STUPID law benefits MONEY that brought the elected official to office.

The Republicans are essentially using the Karl Rove model of 2000 and 2004, while the Democrats are putting forth a new take on a very old model used throughout American history to upend the status quo and usher in new governing majorities.

ST. PAUL, Minn. - Anti-tax activist Grover Norquist waved off a report today that Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin had secured a large federal grant for town of 6,700 people.

Norquist used his speech before the Nevada delegation this morning to rail against Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, saying the Illinois lawmaker's tax policies would cost Americans of their hard-earned money.

"He doesn't understand the damage he would do to the economy," Norquist told the gathering.
