American Politics: Lesson Lost

The plain simple fact of the matter is that we Americans were damned unhappy with the lack of responsive leadership on the part of our elected representatives. We were unhappy with the lack of border control and, specifically, the immigration issue.

We were more than damned unhappy with the constant bickering in Washington and the total lack of needed and meaningful legislation. We were even more than damned unhappy with the name-calling partisan politics and the total lack of ethical behavior on the part of our selected representatives.

So, we voted them out.

The fact that most of the incumbents sent down the street were Republicans does not imply that we like Democrats more than Republicans. The majority of incumbents up for re-election were Republicans; we were unhappy with the above described issues and the incumbent's lack of sound initiative action to deal with them. So, we voted them out.

The Democrats took that action as being a vote for their candidates and support for their platforms.

Now, it's "The borders are no problem, the Democrats are in control, and let us proceed to impeach Bush."

The borders are a problem and we're damned upset that you blind and egotisical Democrats have misconstrued the election mandates.

The rush to impeach Bush serves only to underscore the fact that you new guys are no better than the previous, because you're not addressing the real issues that we are concerned about. Politics as usual?

You folks didn't get the message. The message is that we citizens are sick and tired of having you, the representatives we selected, turn around and act as if our real wants and needs are far less important than your selfish political agendas.

Next election, I guess, well have to show you who's really in charge?

YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TAKE MY AMERICAN TAXPAYING MONEY TO SUPPORT UNAMERICAN ILLEGAL ALIENS. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO KEEP THE BORDERS TO MY COUNTRY OPEN TO AGGRESSION. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO LAY THE BLAMES FOR YOUR INACTIONS AND DISSERVICES AT THE FEET OF ANYONE OTHER THAN YOURSELVES.

And, I don't care whether you're Republican or Democrat or otherwise.

THE ONLY RIGHT YOU HAVE IS TO LISTEN AND RESPOND TO THOSE WHO ELECTED YOU.

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
