you are entitled to your opinion, and you are probably entitled
to your glock and your ak47, and i tend to agree with your
opinion that the congress and the senate are interested in
preserving their jobs and not at all interested in your life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness. the founding fathers never
thougt of being a member of congress or the senate as a
career choicer. they thought of it as an obligation to your country.
serve your few years at no pay, and then return to your home
and family and personal obligations.
but first one guy and then another figured out they could get
paid, sell favors, and get special parking for their horse and
buggy, and then leave their service with the government and
start selling their personal contacts to some company that wanted
a special road to their factory, or exclusive rights to some
waterway and then a few laws to kill their competition.. damn
this could be the start of something good for elected officials.
a lot better then going home and looking for a job where people
called you, "get the mop and take care of the wet spot in the
toilet." instead of the honorable mr s h i t.
but...........
when you hear a knock at the door in a few nights, i'd make sure
your wife and kids are safe,
the government has bazookas, and swat people, and airplanes
and probably a whole bunch of stuff that will melt your glock, and
if you have an unlisted phone number, the ears have that
already.
these are not the guys with red coats that stand next to each
other so you can win a stuffed monkey if you knock a bunch of
them down.
tread carefully, we have not signed any agreement against land
mines.
