We called. We wrote. We emailed. No one listened. This has gone on for years. Now, we attend tea parties and town meetings and they still are not listening. Instead, we are called an angry mob bused in by some unknown entity. Well, WE ARE MAD AS HELL AND ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE. That is what we are. Anyone who is so dense as to not be able to understand this better beware come 2010 cause anyone not listening to us will be turned out of office, Republican, Democrat, Independent, or Socialist. This is a government of the people and for the people, not just the chosen who think they know what is best for us, regardless of what we say. Anyone who wants to be re-elected or elected better start listening to the people and stop spending our money like there is no tomorrow. We scrape and sacrifice--they live like royality. We don't have vacations--they travel all over on our dime. I see no signs of personal sacrifice by any of the politicians. I do see them trying to buy votes by spending our money on pet projects. Well, my vote is not for sale. The only way they can have my vote is is they start living by our constitution and protecting our government as if it were their own home.
