I'm 80 years old and I've come to the realization that people are stupid. I don't care how many degrees or PHD's they have, people are stupid.
Let me cite some examples and you may agree with me.
Mexicans sneak across our Southern border to come to the United States to earn a better living. Many of them, when they get here, refuse to learn the English language and refuse to assimilate into American culture. Some are even claiming that New Mexico, Arizona and California really belong to Mexico and should be returned to that corrupt and criminally ridden country. So they flee here for a better life and then try their damnedest to turn this country into the same type of hell hole they left.
Senator Gregg of New Hampshire has just accepted a nomination from President Obama to be the next Secretary of Commerce. One of the reasons given why this conservative senator would accept this appointment is that his state is becoming more and more liberal and his chances of being re-elected are growing slimmer by the day. The reason for this is the large number of people moving in from The People's Republic of Massachusetts to escape the high taxes and other liberal enactments like homosexual marriage and other outrages. So now they are voting for the same type of governmant they moved away from.
Before the 2008 election congress had an approval rating in the single digits. Even lower than President Bush hard as that is to believe. So what happened on Election Day? The vast majority of incumbents were re-elected. One of the definitions of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome. So I guess this shows that American voters are not only stupid but insane as well.
People are crying out that they feel disenfranchised. That the people in Congress don't listen to them. Why should they listen? No matter what they do we keep sending them back year after year to do their dirty work. And don't tell me that your congressman is OK. That's BULL!! The longer they stay in Washington the worse they get.
I have a bumper sticker on my car which says, "THROW THE BUMS OUT." I intend to do everything I can to make that come about. I hope you will too.
DON'T VOTE FOR INCUMBENTS!!!!
