Re: Disgruntled Ex-Employee and former Competitor
very well said.
The GOP has learned their lesson....hopefully.
The only problem with the two sides butting heads is problems that need immediate attention like immigration reform and medical care costs will never get solved. It turns out these issues are very important to most Americans...but since when have the parties been for the people huh?
Yes pork-barreling is a problem and needs to be solved, but it's up to the voters of the state to get them out and let's face it, no one in Alaska is going to vote out Stevens...he brings home tons of money...so does Byrd for that matter.
So until the states that vote these idiots in wise up, we're going to have pork spending to the likes we've never seen continue....now, would you like a side of bacon at dinner tonight?

They weren't getting solved any way. The "fence" they want to build never got funded (I'm more in favor of mine fields myself, but I digress) and any kind of health care reform will never be seen. Part of the problem with health care costs is illegal immigration. Ever go to a hospital emergency room on any given night? You better bring your English-Spanish dictionary with you, if you plan on making conversation with your fellow patrons. They KNOW the ER can't turn them away, so they go there for things like the common cold and stupid stuff. You and I pay for it in the end.
I totally agree with you. Until people wise up and realize that just because their guy brings home the "bacon" doesn't mean he deserves re election.
Me, I vote my beliefs. I don't care how many $$ you bring to my state.
I sure do hope the GOP did learn their lesson. As it stands today, I don't see much hope for us as a whole the way we're headed. The border is a sieve, it's costing us millions. No one in congress seems to want to do anything.
Everyone in power is just so damn selfish. Of course, so are their constituents, so I guess they're doing a good job as far as they're concerned...
It is sad....
