Caught In The Middle

I do not know about you but, I think our Government Leaders, from the Local Mayors’ Office to the Whitehouse and Congress, just plain suck. I think the American People feel caught in the middle with the political wrangling and bickering that has reached a point where our politicians are useless. The Lobbyists from K-Street have just about completely shut out the voice of the American People. The feeling of entitlement and privilege of “the Family” at C-Street has brought the American Politician to be reviled and vilified. More so for the Republican, than that of the Democratic Party.

Within the last two decades, our nation has been sent to war twice, by Presidents from the same family. Our economy was used like an inflatable doll, to be played with then, discarded when its usefulness was reached. The lies in all areas of our Government became so numerous, that it has obscured the truth and good of what our Nations pride and Constitution is all about. Illicit Sex and debauchery have become the norm regardless of which party is in power. Bi-partisanship or working together has been cast aside and replaced by each party’s obsession, to be in and of holding power, in as many parts of the Government as they can. The welfare of the average American never even considered.

So, what can “we the people” do about this situation? In the immediate, pass the word. We should begin to hold our political figures to a much higher standard than we ever had in our past. For the future, every one of us must take part and make the choices necessary to remove those politicians that favor personal greed over the betterment of the American way of life. Each and every American must take a stake in our nation’s future and place our politicians on notice. The political notice that, deliberate ignorance towards the needs of the American People, will not go unpunished.

Now, you could say, we do this every Election Day. This is when we should we be doing this. However, apathy and lack of caring in the past, has led to many of the useless political deadbeats we have in office, from both political party’s today. So, from this moment on, let us all give that notice to all our politicians, especially those who are on summer break from Congress, that the free ride is over. The self indulgence and selfish infighting will come to an end. Either they must put the country’s best interests first, over all others, or face a shortened career that will be swift and complete. Boy, wouldn’t that be refreshing.

That’s How I See It.
