Why are they Passing Bills Without Reading Them Anyways? And that goes for Both, The Repubs And Dems! Once a Bill is Introduced, It should be allowed to Cool Off for One week or more (Depending On Size and Pork)and that would give Everyone Time to Read them and Not Just Say, Heck with it and Pass it! That's How the Taxpayers get Screwed By The Very People we Hire(Elect) Not Doing Their Jobs and Taking the Lazy Way Out!

Take a look at most of these bills from either party..They are most often hundreds and even over a thousands of pages...Some but no where near enough have staff read them if there is time, if not...they just vote...take a look at the bill that Ron Paul wrote to have the Fed Reserved audited....it was 3-4 pages...thats what all bills should be.....
This rushing bills through without the public knowing the lauguage and having a chance to contact their reps, is just B/S...but then again, we keep voting the same ones back into office...then we also get "hope and change"........

That's right, it IS our fault. We've sat back for too many years and by not getting involved, this is what we get. I honestly feel that our time is running out now, if we don't get off our collective arses and take this country back, we may lose it for good.
We need to do our homework, speak out, and stay strong!
You got that right Diva, VOTE ALL THE BUMS OUT!!!

I am in the same boat as you...that is why people need to close down the switch boards to their elected reps, fill up the inbox and keep the fax machines ruhnning constantly...these jokers in office need to hear from us all the time on an ongoing basis, especially right now with health care crap and do not forget the Cap and Tax bill is still hanging in the wind and waiting to be passed...the fact is bought will cost us money we don't have, will cost jobs and not save a dime...along with other issues that will have terrible affects on this country....
It is now the time to get RID of the ReBumLiCans and the Dumb-O-Crats for good!! BOTH of those parties are far to corrupt to be reclaimed. It is OUR responsibility to relcaim our freedoms and our RIGHTFUL control OVER our government, before it is too late.

You know, a few years back I would, once in a while, listen to the Trucking Bozo. I remember him saying that we should vote ALL of them out....if they were incumbent, they HAD to go. At the time, I thought that seemed pretty extreme....now, not so much!
There are only TWO ways to re-assert our RIGHTS to control our government. The VOTE and to fight. I prefere to VOTE back our RIGHTFUL controls. IF we do not, I FEAR that the fight will come. Many Many Americans still LOVE their Freedoms, they are NOT going to stand for this much longer.

The problem with voters is that they want their cake and eat it too. IOW, they want healthcare for all, welfare for the needy, this, that, and the other; but they also want freedom. Can't have both! More government = less freedom. Less government = more freedom. Take your pick. Voting "all of the above" is not an option.

Can I ask what changed your mind?
I keep hearing everyone say, "vote 'em all out", "they're all bums", "they are all corrupt", etc, etc. Where was that type outcry prior to this administration? There are 2 maybe three in here that have been consistent but that's it. The only thing I see different are the republicans, conservatives whining and crying about everything for the past 6 months. I have never heard such bashing and name calling and halve truths thrown around when Bush was in office. Nothing has changed, its the same old song and dance. Oh...one difference is that Rush, Bill O' and Glen Beck do not like Obama and you poor, poor pathetic people eat that S*** up.

A quote from Chef from another thread he started. This is exactly what I am talking about. Bush did it but........everyone else was doing it, "barry" and "timmy" this and that, give it up already you sound like a 10 year old crying to his mom.
Bush started this before he left office, but only with barrys ok and timmy put it together for the Bush people. bush is not blameless in this mess, but look who wants to keep things "secret", "no accountability" ...what happen to "open and transparent?" Just more thief by the "banksters' and their buddies in office.....

If you cannot see that what's going on right now is far beyond anything this country has ever witnessed, then I hold no hope for you.
I will add that this comment doesn't exactly make any of us want to engage in further discussion with you, on this subject, or any other....
Oh, and for your convenience....

Witness23, If you have been reading my post I have ALWAYS stated that we need to get rid of BOTH major parties. Back during the so-called election I stated that McCain and Obama were like two diseases. McCain was like drug resistant tuburulosos and Obama was like terminal brain cancer. I think that I have been consistant.

Layout, you are one of the 2 or 3 that I mentioned in may post that has been saying this all along. It is the others that I speak of. No one will accuse you of not being consistent in your views.
For the "others" I was speaking of, no need to comment, we know who you are more importantly you know who you are, so save your comments, please.
WHEW!! GOOD!! I was afraid that someone might have mis-understood me!!! LOL!!!!

No one could ever mis understand your position..trust me....you are solid....
Did I just say trust me? oh gawd....I've caught the disease....Obamanation!!!
Be Careful, Obamaism is a fatal disease!!! It cause ones brain to waste away, your will to die and your dreams to fade away. All that is left is to sit around and wait for physical death to catch up to the rest.

I wasn't going to comment on your above post because I didn't think anyone would take it seriously(it was quite laughable actually). To be honest I thought someone else would point out the obvious, but as I thought that would be hard to do with this bunch in the soapbox. So I'm curious....may I ask, you do not think there is a difference from Rush, Hannity, O'reilly and Beck?
Oh by the way I do watch O'reilly, Hannity and Beck(and his radio show) and listen to Rush also. Don't ask why, I know, I know I am a glutton for punishment.
