Keep your hope. Here's your change!!!
We Need Change, Never mind, we already fell for that one.
EDIT:
Sounds a bit like... a bit like... oh, I don't know, how we all feel about every single elected idiot in Washington DC (President, Congressional Leaders, Senators, Cabinet, etc, etc).
As sad and pitiful as what I said was, and you agreed with, I find it hard to prove otherwise.
I don't pay much attention to the news these days either. I'll read the local paper and peruse the AP section.... but even then I can't filter garbage from truth. That is pitiful.
As much as any of us sit and belly ache or defend any given politician, it is doing nothing. I am of the firm opinion that we are defending people that do not have our best interest at heart. Locally and on the state level, I have these politicians in a stare-down. I am looking for a reason to hold them to task.
There are only about 500-525k of us here, and perhaps guys like me paying attention can do something. I seriously have my doubts, but that is just me being a pessimist.
Besides all of the lying, blame placing, and party line garbage, I am sick and tired of open ended promises. I am tired of politicians begging for a vote in order to get change, then we get fed more of the same. You know, it is either lunacy or crazy that is defined by doing the same action over and over and expecting a different outcome. Until politics itself changes, we can expect more of this B.S.
brice. I have to say that I agree with every word you just wrote. I have tried to stay optimistic n cannot. I have tried to not get anry. That has failed as well. Now I find myself turning the news off simply because I cannot stand the lies, the games, and watching everyday people suffer as a result. America is now bought and paid for Im afraid, Wall Street owns us. Its all about the greed.
It doesn't make a bit of difference whose approval rating is lower. Nobody is getting anything done. Republicans.... Democrats.... Independents.... none of them are following through with their promises to get things done, and we keep voting for these *****. Just about everyone in office right now told us, the American people, that they were going to do what was necessary to get things right.... we heard, we voted, and now we're screwed!
Defending anyone in politics right now is just a good faith gesture in my opinion. It continues to show bias.... for some reason, nobody wants to look at anyone's faults. There are an awful lot of optimists right now. Glass half full type of folks... and maybe that isn't so bad. But if your glass is only half full, you are leaving at least half of the country thirsty.... drink it up optimists. I hope it quenches your thirst.
(Next election will be no better.... you heard it here first!)
I heard the congress has an all time low in popularity. Lots lower than the pres too. Did you hear? approval rate of 14 or was it 13%. Lots of lows to go around, so it will be the low of the lows that are out, right? And how long till we got this in our streets I wonder.
Sounds like the Greeks are having a little "buyers remorse" with their government.
Sounds a bit like... a bit like... oh, I don't know, how we all feel about our current president???
