Shoe by Gary Brookins and Susie MacNelly for December 23, 2011

No more Senate sessions.

When you hear a politician saying that he is not going to lie, he/she already has.

Work for the people? Nah.

The Senator has no free time; he charges by the hour.

So ? He’s a politician. What’s your point ?

He’s going to leave all of the lying, deception, and graft to his campaign staff.

“I will never lie to you.” Jimmie Carter

Here we are in the most individual culture of all time, and we expect ONE person to thoroughly represent thousands and millions of conflicting opinions…and complain when they go with the loud, noisy, and rich…and we complain because WE have become more loud, noisy, and rich in order to impose OUR individual opinions…in a very real way do DO get the government we deserve.

How I liked it when Republicans were polite, and thoughtful, worked hard, long hours, and personally cared. Now that they’ve caved to base selfishness and arrogance there’s NO hope for American civilization.

Unless the demos watch them kill themselves and learn a lesson.

That is what politicians feed on, rather than being productive members of society.

That was not a Kinsley Gaffe. He didn’t accidently tell the truth.

Congress is doing the peoples’ business. The Supreme Court says that Corporates are people, so I guess it legalizes the money-grubbing actions of the Boehner-bunch in their scurrilous deeds.
