Because for what ever reason, Congress, the FBI, The Justice Dept., the Supremes, NONE will do their DAMN jobs...!!!

We pay Congress $174,000. for ONLY 78 days work out of the entire year, BUT, they also get money from the Unions, and Corp.'s to vote the way those people want, instead of the way WE want....In the monetary form of $14,900. every other month, since the law says they cannot receive $15,000... a perfect (play on the law)....

Since when has Congress started to play FAIR ??? ( ONLY ) since the money hungry (power crazies) enjoy the easiest job they ever had....

In the beginning, Congress served only 2 (TWO) years, and then were in-eligible to serve longer, them it went to 6 (SIX) years, and now, for as long as IDIOTS keep re-electing them...EXPECTING DIFFERENT RESULTS... :oops:
NO TERM-LIMITS....!!! NO "RECALL" Petitions...
18 out 0f the 50 States have it....So what are your Legislators waiting for...Simple,... YOUR "DEMANDS"..!!!

NO doubt this country is : "LOST", because of un-educated people, who do not have the time to read upon current items or events, THEY, who have to work to support their families, and therefore ELECT imbeciles to speak for them , and then the ELECTORS get the shaft....:roll: : (Us included) :(

Unless we 'DEMAND' to get our State legislators to vote YES on "Term-Limits" and "RECALL" petitions added into our STATE CONSTITIONS,... So that with a simple 51% majority, (WE can GET THEM OUT)...including State Legislators....!!!

We will never again get any say on : Amnesty, or Gun Control, nothing...We are at their mercy, It is OUR own fault, we blog, and do nothing else...I tried, but not enough persons were interested in this State...A DEMO haven...

What the "Congress-CLOWNS " vote on ... NOT with OUR consent,.. which is what they were "HIRED" to do, .....
WE ARE DOOMED"... :evil:

The founders of this country saw fit that only land owners could vote. That worked until the 20th century when it was made a civil rights issue and everyone got the right to vote. Today, that decision may be the beginning of the death of the United States. The poor and uneducated, or uninformed are voting for the party that gives them the most. The so called poor are the largest voting block. Therefore, the country is being run by the least educated which will result in the demise of the United States. I want you to tell me that I am wrong. Say it now and say it here. I maintain that any county run by the lest educated and uninformed is doomed.

Your right 'Big Eagle', However we have not seen any real action since the Regan years. This clown ( a compliment) Now in the White house is like a race horse with short legs and a long neck. That description sounds like a duck. But this is no duck, but rather a turkey. I know a lot about 'turkeys' as I have sold some in my time. This discussion on 'the end' is most serious. We must keep the pace, as we are on the brink of reality.

The biggest issue is that instead of voters picking their representatives, representatives pick their voters by gerrymandering the districts to keep themselves in power. They only answer to the big donors and corporation that give them money to run for office. If we want a more representative government we need to do what Iowa and California have done, to outlaw gerrymandering by having all districts have straight line outlines (CA) or having districts drawn by an independant board (IA). Then we need to overthrow the citizens united decision to take big money out of politics.

I actually think serving in government should be a non-paying job. Strictly volunteer, with no perks except perhaps travel reimbursement. But in this day of teleconferencing and electronic communication, I see no reason for outrageously expensive offices in D.C.

Money and power are the main motivators, not the good of those they serve. Lifetime benefits (hey, I wouldn't mind that, would you?) and preferential treatment are irresistible to those with no true loyalties.

As well, most of these clowns are lawyers. Need I say more? Remember how used car salesmen used to be looked down on? Compared to lawyers, a used car salesman is truthful and honest.

Term limits I do not think will make any difference. I am a red neck white from the South who marry a beautiful ldy from Mexico. We are separated now, but I am still close to the family. I have in law in politics in. That are in politics in Mexico, and they were on allow to serve one term due to Mexico one term in office law. They are came out rich , but they had to steal fast and make their deals for job fast due to the limited time they will in office. They are all very rich now due to their limited time in politic and have good connection to gain more wealth. This country is being destroy by the godliness of its citizen who approve of homosexuality, abortion, divorce, drugs and a whole host of other wicked and pernicious activity. This country is in the process of being destroyed for turning it back on God and his commandments. We. are the modern day Israel. The politician have nothing to with it. Read the book of ISAIAH It explain every thing.

Catfish: You are CORRECT.....

HOWEVER, In America....WE DO NEED "TERM-LIMITS " desperately....!!!
Also, each State NEEDS to have the Constitutional right to "RECALL" initiatives....:thumbup: :thumbup:
Only 18 out of 50 States have it... ALL States need IT..!!!

THEN,.... We will have back some POWER over those "BAD" and "GREEDY" politicians, which we need AGAIN... :evil:

I made a comment on this about a week ago and given this much thought. It's not the term limits so much. It's the type of people we put in office. What we need is non professional every day folks whose main goal is to help their fellow citizens unlike the ones we currently have. The big problem with that the current crop ( and a poor one at that) is these self serving souls ( do they have one? ) get elected to serve their special interest donors. These two in bed together is the whole problem. We as concerned citizens need to find a way to get gran-ma elected, as persons like her have a vast background of living in the real world, and maybe best of all money is the least of their goals. Think about that folks !

Term limits would stop a lot of vote buying. The lobbyist could no longer make big contributions to their re-election bids. But, free meals, free airplane rides on private jets, etc. will probably continue. Every body can be bought it just depends on the price.
