This country certainly needs a revolution. A revolution by the voters. Every incumbent should be voted out. The other night I watched Robin Williams as Tom Dobbs in Man of the Year. His comments about the politican's loyalities to the special interest groups hit the problem right on the head. Politicans are prostituting their votes.

Can you say "term limits" for Congress.

I don't know how much influence Kay B. was in this "bill", but I have always thought she used up good oxygen in the Senate Chamber - never complained because I didn't care if the others were short of it.


I do think some people 10-15 years ago had the right idea. They refused to pay taxes. Now those people got in trouble, but if thousands and thousands across the country rebelled, we might just get some attention from DC. I have found there is no other way to get their attention.

It's a pleasure to see so many "getting it" - that there's barely a dime's worth of difference between the major political factions in this country. What we currently have is four parties - the Democrats and the left-wing Democrats; the Republicans and the right-wing Republicans. And then we have US, the Independents, who declare no allegiance to any of the above. Thankfully, there are far more of "us" than the R's and D's would care to admit. That fact was never more pronounced than in the recent federal elections, which were actually MUCH closer votes than the victors will admit.

Immediately after the '06 elections, New York Senator Chuck Schumer released a statement indicating his belief that it was the Independent vote that actually made the difference, but his statement was quickly banished to the back page, while the wild "We're in charge now" celebration was in full swing. Senator Schumer was absolutely correct in his assessment. This past year's congressional production is absolute proof that the status quo is a huge negative in American politics. Democrats had a great chance to lock up the White House with a landslide win in '08. They blew it...and now that election is totally up in the air.

We need more folks to step back and take a serious look at what's actually going on - and then pull their support from the R's and the D's and declare Independence.

I've never been a big fan of Kay's, but she's certainly LOST my confidence and vote. She needs to LISTEN to the people of Texas she represents... we want to STOP ILLEGALS, NOT GIVE THEM ENTITLEMENT OR A HOME.

Build the dang fence!!!!, give the BA's guns and allow them to USE them to defend themselves against these horrible people throw rocks, stones, molotov cocktails and the occasional bullets!!

and don't vote for KBH

There was atime I liked her also. But not now.

I may know the reasons for all the above concerns. Some 900 missing FBI files! However if that's the case, we must have a very smelly gassy gaggle of gangsters in Congress. Hmmm. Who'd have thunk it?
