Re-election Smoke & Mirrors Time Again

The media reports state that Americans are proving themselves to be the most spoiled, most indifferent, most illiterate, etc., in most areas which affect their lives in every way. The criticisms by observers of the citizens of this country are being proven over and over again. Whether you agree with them or not, the headlines in every newspaper (and I don't mean those put out by government propagandists) highlight the problems occurring in cities and towns on a daily basis.

At the top of the heap, the President and Congress have ignored and refused to address the problem of illegal immigrants flooding our cities, increase in crimes by same; the millions of dollars in educational, medical, and law enforcement costs to the taxpayers. Now they are ready to leave DC and come back home to tell us to send them back to their "ivory tower" of spending and control, where they will again ignore their Oath of Office to protect and defend this country! And Americans will again ignore the misdeeds of their so-called representatives and put them right back in DC.

How ecstatic these so-called representatives of the people must be! Their Department of Education [long ago promised to be abolished] in collusion with the National Education Association - has dumbed down the entire county. Parents and students alike no longer know the history of America, haven't read the Constitution, and have no idea where other countries are and can't find them on a map. These 'prisons of mediocrity' are given our tax dollars by Congress and state legislators who are quite happy with the results.

My own Congressman's staff [I assume it came from 'them' since he does not seem to know the answer to the question] sent me an email, inviting me to a Town Hall Meeting to get my opinion on 'illegal' immigration. Does he understand the meaning of the word "illegal"? If he has to ask us he has been too well insulated from the rest of the state/country. Reelection coffers are filled by businesses who employ this type of slave labor and are totally ignored by the law makers who have one goal only.....stay in power and to heck with the consequences.

Well, folks, you have only to hold out your hands and beg for more. Your governments will be only to glad to stick it you....just for your vote ...again proving to the world the media reports!
