We are a nation of knuckleheads. What does it say about our government when 86 percent of us don’t like the job that’s being done in Washington … the other Washington. There are 500 Congressmen and senators, who can’t agree on what to have for lunch, and they are running the country. They call Social Security and Medicare “entitlements.” So what do you call it when you suck on the teat of the American public … “giving back.” That’s a very large load of crap.
It’s time … it’s past time. We need term limits … eight years and you’re done … hit the bricks. Pack your stuff and go find a real job. We don’t want to give you lifetime retirement, medical, dental, and eye care.
The president wouldn’t have to take year three off to get re-elected. They’ve got eight years as well … get out, you can take the monogrammed towels. Oh, ya, in a perfect world, you can’t even be POTUS unless you are a Combat veteran. If you are going to send my grandkids to some hellhole, You have to know what its like. (Yes I served.)
Lastly, If you got on an airplane with your family to go to Disneyland and the pilot was 80 years old, I don’t know about you but I’m getting the hell off the plane. But wait, I don’t have to worry about that because the FAA has a rule in place, that you cant fly passengers after 65 … so what the hell are we doing with 80 and 90-year-old politicians. The “F” in FAA stands for federal. However, that’s not the “F” we’re getting…
