The ONLY Party
Weiner admitted what he did, and it turns out to be SIX different women, but he isn't stepping down.
Charlie Rangel basically told HIS "Boss" were to put it, when Obama asked HIM to step down.
On the opening day of the new Congress, Dianne Feinstein tried to get 25 BILLION in taxpayer funds transferred to the government agency that had JUST AWARDED a lucrative contract to HER HUSBAND'S real estate corporation.
Edwatds fathers an "affaired baby" while his own wife is dying of cancer.
Clinton gets "special favors" in the Oval Office, lies about it to the Congress (where they tie up countless time at taxpayer expense holding sessions" on it). He is impeached but not removed, so what does "impeached" actually mean?
Murtha was caught with HIS hand in the cookie jar, Geithner can't handle HIS own taxes, but is put in charge of OURS. One of the illegal's best allies is put in charge of Homeland Security..............
Barney Frank is crooked as a dog's hind leg, and is openly gay to boot.
We ALL remember what TED Kennedy got away with.
You know.........you can say what you will about Nixon.....but HE at least, had the DECENCY to RESIGN, rather than continue to drag our flag through the mud.
"SO.....WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, ZOOK..........ONLY DEMOCRATS DO THINGS LIKE THIS?"
No...........not at all....Ex-Governor Arnold is in deep dung out in California, and a few years back Larry Craig was caught in the "men's room"
There are slimeballs on both sides but the Dems seem to not only hold a commanding lead, but continue to add to it! It's gonna be real interesting to see how that "Blogo Circus" comes out in Chicago.
"WELL...........AREN'T WE ALL HUMAN BEINGS, AND SUBJECT TO MAKING MISTAKES?"
Yes......but our elected officials SHOULD be held to higher standards. They want US to trust them with our COUNTRY, and when the world looks at who we "choose" to LEAD us....it is little wonder we ALL appear to be morally corrupt!
If "Jerry the Junkman" is cheating on his dying wife down in Glenns Ferry, 3 or 4 people might know about it. If a U.S. Senator (even a FORMER one) does, it is headlines around the world.....and our whole country and ITS values suffer for it. We become the "laughing stock" of the planet.
How about our kids & grandkids?.........when they see someone IMPORTANT---in HIGH PLACES get caught with their "fingers in the till" and STILL remain in office.......what does that tell the young little minds in the 5th or 6th grades?
......"It's OK!".......Senator/Congressman/PRESIDENT "So & So" are in charge------THEY know all the rules------it MUST be "OK!" It's ALRIGHT to STEAL, to LIE, to FOOL AROUND ON YOUR SPOUSE.............even if you get CAUGHT, nothing bad really happens to you!" (except maybe for Edwards right now.....but he'll probably squirm out of it)
THESE guys are in the LIMELIGHT folks......they are public figures with huge responsibilities and the cameras are constantly on them...............THAT's what makes it "different."
When you are REPRESENTING the people who elected you.....when you are not only being PAID by the taxpayers, but handling every dime the IRS squeezes OUT of those taxpayers.......you had BETTER do it cleaner than anyone else......and you had BETTER set some kind of example that PROPERLY inspires our youth to reach for higher plateaus.
Man...even I'M starting to get just a "touch" CORRUPTED............I was telling a buddy of mine the other day, that I had wasted my life in the service.......I should have gone into politics, where I could "B.S." the people.....tell 'em what they want to hear,.......lie, cheat & steal, and even if I got CAUGHT, I could still retire with a nice salary & full benefits after just ONE term.........and the "constituents" would STILL have to PAY for it all.............."MAN", I said....."YOU AND I HAVE BEEN IN THE WRONG RACKET ALL THESE YEARS!"
I don't want my grandkids growing up thinking it's better to "THIEVE" than to "ACHIEVE."
Those who NEED to be gone but refuse to leave.......we need to HELP them OUT THE DOOR.
2010 was a great opportunity, and we made pretty good use of it.
Next year will be here before we know it, and yet ANOTHER opportunity.
2 years after that, there'll be ANOTHER handfull of seats up for grabs, on BOTH sides.
The flag is still red, white & blue...........we're still in charge........we can still make this happen.
The only "Party" out there that deserves our "LOYALTY" is our kids'/grandkids' BIRTHDAY party, whereas with each passing birthday-----as they blow out more & more candles-----we're able to provide them with "less & less" debt.
What did we do?...........bring them into this world just to make slaves out of them, so they have to clean up the mess WE MADE? Think about that when you're bouncing one of them on your knee. Then when your grand daughter goes home, turns around, gives you that precious-innocent hug and says "I love you, Grandpa".....we need to NOT let that child down.......where another ten years from now she's having to share a single-wide with 3 other people, and working 2 jobs (if there ARE any) just to keep food on the table.
THAT'S the only "party" that should mean anything to us......."Happy Birthday to you"................................."and MANY MORE!"
Democrat or Republican. This is still very "DO-ABLE"
