Just something to think about. Character and respect. At this point I have little or no respect for those ruling this country. Not because of the government shutdown, but because of all the rhetoric leading our country to this point again. This does not apply to just the last few weeks, but for a very long time. Let me say that I respect the offices these people hold. We give the titles like President, Senator, Representative and Speaker. However, in my case these individuals must earn my respect. That comes from character. Bullying, name calling and this “my way or no way” demonstrates character traits that I do not believe in. The lack of civil discourse, willingness to listen to all view points and to negotiate on differences are unacceptable character traits in my view. These politicians, all of them, believe that the way you solve something and getting reelected is by “making you afraid of it, and telling you who’s to blame for it”.

To quote a line from one of my favorite movies “We have serious problems and we need serious people to solve them”. We have a character and respect issue and now is the time to fix it.

Just something to think about. The Washington Ruling Class. I am trying to understand how 535 people are able to make laws, like the Affordable Care Act while at the same time exempting themselves, their staffs and many others from it. This, along with the fact that we are now approaching another government shutdown because they as a collective body have once again failed to do their jobs. They will not negotiate with each other on anything. That along with the fact that one of the parties has now taken to calling the other party terrorist and other vile names. None of them have our best interest in mind, if they did we would not have reach this point again. Their only concern is for themselves and those that contribute to their ability to be a member of the elite ruling class in this country. I personally am sick and tired of this dysfunctional bunch of men and women ruling over us like we do not matter. Their behavior is abnormal in every sense of the word. It is time that “we the people” remove them from power and take the country back. Period, end of story.
