It feels like we're in a bus being driven by a drunk driver and we're on a winding road near big cliffs. Yea, a lot of people are angry. We should be able to trust the people who are making tons of laws that directly affect our lives. Clearly, we don't.
We vote, then the idiots get to Washington where they are more concerned with their own careers than the promises they made. The career politicians who only know life as a politician are worthless. People should let it be known that they'll vote for those who have actually lived and worked in the real world at some point. Maybe even a psychiatric evaluation is in order. I question Pelosi and Reid's sanity.
Obama has broken many of his campaign promises and most say that is expected. I bet the majority would say that no one really believes that any politician will keep the promises made on the campaign trail, yet here we are again and many believing the campaign promises and will vote because of them. I don't see a lot of positive ads, most bashing the opponent. Incumbents should be able to run on their record, but when they focus on what they think is wrong with their challenger instead, you know they suck.
Does anyone believe any of the campaign ads? We get inundated every election and a grotesque amount of money is spent just to piss people off. Everyone I know hates the ads, no matter which party. For those who pay attention to what is going on, no ads are necessary. To idiots who vote blindly, ads won't change their minds. I think we should just do away with them and have a lot of debates where they have to either answer for their record or make a serious promise that can actually be kept. We should get details of plans they have and no more of the bullshit stuff like 'building a bridge to the 21st century' or other meaningless things that might sound pretty but lack substance.
