He Tried

For the record, I don't look for profundity among members of Congress.  There are no brain surgeons in residence.  Just guys towing the line, taking a paycheck and supporting their families. 

There's nothing wrong with that.

Except for the fact we don't pay them to relax when they hold our lives in their hands.

Do you keep track of what your Congressman is doing?  Of course not. Neither do I. How does one do it?

Alot of people talk smack about Ted Kennedy.  He's a murderer, don't you know.  He left some chick to die in the Chappaquiddick River. He is not particulary profound. But at least he tried to help you.

You're man, and we both know who we are talkin about, is responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of innocent people. Regular folks who ran out of their homes as bombs dropped on their heads, carrying their dead children in their arms.  I heard them screeching and crying on public radio.  It was a disgusting fiasco.  Innocent, normal people like you and I, paying the price for some political agenda they knew nothing about.

When he was done, he destroyed your economy and your healthcare.  His politcal friends slipped out the back door with billions.  Money you and I funded with our taxes.. Enron, Haliburton.  Where is your outrage?  I'll tell you, you're scared to death of losing your job or your house. Fear is how we silence people. I understand. I've likely lost more then you.  But I want it to end.  No more bailouts of shisters that behaved badly or were professional con-artists,  (Why do people in this country get rewarded for behaving badly?)  It only occurs because we agree to it.  How is this happening? Why isn't anyone saying anything?

But you don't listen to public radio do you?  You watch CNN. You prefer to be spoon fed like a 2 year old with lies.  FYI: The spoon of mashed peas heading for your mouth is not actually an airplane.
