Hey Pie...How you doin'? I see something here in your post that is causing me to think. Do you see any disconnection or connection in the below sets of words? voters / politicians disfunctional / criminals
because they are not. voters want a balanced budget as long as its not their subsidy that is cut. ask any tea bag farmer. he will tell you that farm subsidies should not be cut because food is important.
Haha, v funny: All the old paintings on the tombs They do the sand dance don't you know If they move too quick (oh whey oh) They're falling down like a domino All the bazaar men by the Nile They got the money on a bet Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh) They snap their teeth on your cigarette Foreign types with the hookah pipes say Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh Walk like an Egyptian Blonde waitresses take their trays They spin around and they cross the floor They've got the moves (oh whey oh) You drop your drink then they bring you more All the school kids so sick of books They like the punk and the metal band When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh) They're walking like an Egyptian All the kids in the marketplace say Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh Walk like an Egyptian Slide your feet up the street bend your back Shift your arm then you pull it back Life is hard you know (oh whey oh) So strike a pose on a Cadillac If you want to find all the cops They're hanging out in the donut shop They sing and dance (oh whey oh) Spin the clubs cruise down the block All the Japanese with their yen The party boys call the Kremlin And the Chinese know (oh whey oh) They walk the line like Egyptian All the cops in the donut shop say Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh Walk like an Egyptian Walk like an Egyptian
They also held the White House for 8 years before that. As did the Dems before them. Nothing is going to change until voters change.
All the tough talk about debt is just a show. Someone is going to have to accept the blame, someone has got to pay. When backed into a corner all the politicians say the same thing, there could have been a catastrophe, we had to do it. If that doesn't work say the devil made me do it.
Exactly right. All I ever hear are these tired arguments about electing people who have the countries best interests at heart. Show me this group of candidates. Sure, there are small pockets of progressive upstarts, many of whom are defeated early on in the race, and the ones who promise change, never deliver. The fact that there are still those who believe that something substantive will emerge out of this broken and completely corrupt two party system is remarkable. Election cycle after election cycle, it's the same garbage. btw, anybody remember the initial bailout vote back in 2008? 90% of the response by the voting public was vehemently opposed to the bailout and yet it passed after some initial grandstanding. And here we are 2+ years later, and the financial hijinx go on unabated, with nary a concern for what the constituents want done.
