kick the bastards out, republican or democrat!
if you don't think that we, the people, are NOT represented in congress let me give you this little tidbit of information. when the senators were being asked to okay the invasion of iraq in 2003 they were given a 92 page briefing paper that did contain many caveats towards the end of the paper. caveats like "there is no evidence to back this claim", "sources has proven to be unreliable in the past", "others give totally opposite view" "this claim has proven to be false." things like that. you know how many of OUR senators read the entire 92 page (not 920 pages, but only 92, which isn't a lot)? SIX! (some say NINE but let us not quibble..less than ten). that means that either 44 or 41 of our representatives in the senate agreed to start a fucking war without knowing the reasons and the evidence behind the reasons!!!!!! un-fucking-believeable!
if this doesn't piss you off, what will? whether you are or were for or against the war, knowing that your senator did not even fucking bother to read the briefing paper how could you in good consciouness ever even think about voting for them again. sending our young men and women off to kill and die without examing the reasons for doing so. it makes me sick. democrat or republican, if you didn't read that i am going to do everything i can to see that you are outed for your treachery and outsted from office. i will post the names of those who read it when i get them. and i will post the names of those who didn't.

The Democrats backing down from the "bring the troops home" ultimatum was about the most sickening thing I could have envisioned.
(By the way, the whole uproar over the Dems keeping the war funding in debate for 60 days, you know how that made them un-American? ... The Republican Congress kept the war funding on hold for 174 goddamn days just two years ago and nobody said a thing.)
At least the Founding Fathers actually READ the Declaration of Independence before signing it.
Politicians can read? Thought they had staff to do that? Why read when all you have to do is what the poll and lobbyist tell you to do.
