After the Tea Party Tax Rally in Washington D.C. I have heard some that say we shouldn't vote all the reps out because there are a few there that are good. Too look at their records we can see plenty they've compromised on to get small concessions. As far as I'm concerned they are no better than the rest. We certainly wouldn't be the worse off because we voted out the one or two "good people" in Washington out of the more then 400 representatives we have there.
I'm at the point that I'd rather vote for my next door neighbor or even a stranger on the street rather than vote any incumbent back in office. These people have shown us what they'll do and where they want to take the country. The fact that even after so many protests and town halls that our representatives are still willing and even resolute about passing health care, cap and trade, and card check, and yet refuse to verify the president is a natural born citizen or investigate ACORN, or do anything about the more than 40 Czars who are really running things, none of which we voted for, says these people cannot be trusted.
Here and there we have one loan voice standing up and saying something which is complete common sense while all the rest stand against them. It was decided before they even started the hearings on Sotomayor that she would be the next Supreme Court Justice. It seems nothing she said would have prevented that. Even those who opposed her said such things as, they didn't feel she was qualified for the office but they were going to vote for her anyway. More than any other issue about her was the issue that she was hispanic. They certainly avoided talking about outstanding qualifications because there were simply too many controversial things she said. It seemed all she had to say was that she was taken out of context or that she didn't really believe the things she ruled on even though in some cases we have many instances of that happening.
This same thing is true of our current representatives. They can vote for item after item that we don't agree with or want them to vote for but all they have to do is vote for one thing we like and we think they've magically changed. They act as though they had some epiphany at least till they win the next election then they go right back to business is usual.
How many times do they have to violate our trust before we decide to get rid of them. Are we so afraid that anyone else could really do a worse job than they have that we won't at least try some other people in their place? I say let them go back to the regular business world and have to live by the laws they've created... at least till we can get those laws overturned.
The level of taxation in this nation is ridiculous. We've lost sight of what the federal government is for. They are there to protect us against foreign and domestic enemies, they are there to keep order, meaning police judges, jails etc. There is nothing int he constitution anywhere stating or even indicating that Americans have the RIGHT to retirement, the RIGHT to health care, or any of the other insane rights they've made up even as they try to trample on the right to free speech, the right to practice your religion (because if you express your religious beliefs in public it may now be a hate crime)
These non-representing representatives swear an oath to protect and defend the constitution and yet they are looking for every way possible to ignore it or even destroy it in favor of a socialist government. It is clear the constitution does not allow for a socialist government. It does allow for us to vote out the constitution and come up with another form of government if we so choose, but that is not what's happening.
It is time to vote the bums out! We do not need these people in office. They don't really bring any special or great skills to the office with them. Like actors they are full of themselves as being major cogs in the wheels of society when in reality they're no different than we are and can really be easily replaced. So why not, over the next six years, vote each and every one of them out of office. It's an easy thing to do. All everyone needs to do is to determine to vote for anyone but the encumbent and they'll be out. You can still vote for the person of your party if you so choose just vote for the member of your party running against the encumbent!
