Remember to vote all of them OUT when their time is up. I'll vote for anyone other than an incumbent.

If only. Trouble is people agree, but it is not their rep who needs replacing. People need to understand the two parties aka professional politicians are the real enemy of the people.

If the people turned out incumbents in record numbers regardless of party or preferences it would jolt all the politicians. The republicans didn't filibuster anything when the administration exempted government workers from Obamacare. Turn them all out. Now. Call Republican Mike Rogers and tell him so. He may be an innocent victim but don't you understand that everyone in the country hates everybody else's rep and senator but loves their own?

Make it effective by cleaning out their staffs also. Many times that is where the rot is perpetuated from one election to the next and the next,,,,

I am thinking that you… like I… are wondering about the
political parties with which we are most aligned. You used to profess that you
were a Democrat or a Republican. Then,
as the political establishments whittled away at common sense, you… like I…
began to reassess our loyalty.
We became conservatives and liberals… not necessarily
Republican or Democrat. We became independent thinkers. Somebody realized this
and created a category (accurately) termed “independents.” As self-sufficient thinkers, we have
commenced doubting the effectiveness… even the efficacy of our own
congressional representation. It has dawned upon us that they aren’t listening…
or if they are, they aren’t interested.
“Where does all this
lead beyond the next election cycle or two? Nobody knows, but the best place to
look for answers is within the Millennial Generation, the nation's rising
leaders and voters. Last month, in a lengthy essay… I concluded that their
revolutionary view of government and politics points toward two possible
outcomes. One is that they might opt out of Washington, which leads us to some
dark places. The second and more likely outcome is they will blow up Washington
(‘disruption’ is the tech-inspired term they use), and build something better
outside the current two-party dysfunction. Millennials don't fit neatly into
either the Democratic or Republican parties. They are highly empowered,
impatient, and disgusted with politics today.” [Ron Fournier, National
Journal, 01OCT13]
The “Tea Party” is more of a disruption today than it was in
1773. It is the “conservative” effort to
repair our country. There will come a
liberal disruption… when the fruits of liberal policies begin to rot, and those
who depended upon them realize they were had. Unfortunately, the liberal
disruption will be in the form of civil unrest known as rioting.
In either
case, we will know our politicians for who they were… too late.

...and "off topic" is a good venue for this discussion, so why not keep it there?

Your agent Casey is right! This is absolutely
unacceptable. Therefore you MUST move this ENTIRE string to Off-Topic… or put
all of us criminals on notice that we have violated the LMF.
(I do apologize… I was remiss for contributing in the
wrong venue.)
