It just comes out that way Carl, can’t explain it so let’s fry some cold fish.

Where did the belief go that if elected to serve,
the individual is bound by honor to set aside personal agenda and become an employee of the people ?

Where did the now highly held sentiment originate from,
that once ensconced in office,
loyalty, preference, fear and fealty, go to the highest bidder ?

When did we the people become the low-ball side of negotiators ?
Fer Christs sake, I’m not sure if they not dare we,
too raise our musket’s again, or care.

The theater is seated
the audience captive omitted
Very young, that elusive where
too young to say
Office is nae an easy chair

Great imagery Bryan. The woman standing to the right of Harry Reid is none other than Senator Patty Murray-Dem aka as “The Queen of Pork”. She’s one of my Washington State senators. She’s never met a tax debtor dollar that she didn’t want to squander on ‘feelgood’ projects. Over the years she’s embraced veterans affairs, no doubt to ensure her incumbency; but I question the huge expenditures in the face of ongoing VA mismanagement of our tax dollars supported by their miserable operational track record, regardless of the gleaming medical edifices they build for our vets.

They all await their Gloria Swanson moment Carl.
As if poised in the doorway with smoldering fag dangling from the thin lips of our suspended dreams, ever emanating false stability and their freedom from the constraints of their oath to our now lost republic.

Goddamn the pusher man !

This article has been stewing about in my mind since it was posted on August 3rd.

When Mitch McConnell was launching the idea of passing an amendment that would allow the President to act as an emergency authority to raise debt limits etc.; bypassing their Constitutional reponsibilities as lawmakers, it put me on yellow alert. Evidently my apprehension was justified.

I’m going to post a link as to what powers have been created by these joint bodies coming up with the idea of a ‘Super Congress’ or more appropriately “the gang of twelve” in future legislative squabbles.

Seemingly certain rules of order concerning the passage of laws is being abrogated in future debt limit discussions etc. I’ll supply a link that outlines the hidden agenda behind this scheme of creating an ‘Americanski’ version of a ‘Supreme Soviet’ over our now devolved Congress, simply a hand-clapping politburo.

Disclaimer: I am not a member of the “Washington Campaign for Liberty”.

IMO the content is worth reviewing. It causes me grave concern concerning the continued degradation of our representative bodies. This will also explain why a premier ratings agency have decided to punish the U.S. credit markets with a downgrade from AAA to AA+. This is only the beginning of the unraveling or ouf currency system and the Republic.

I’d like to know when the formal ceremony and the subsequent public burning of the Constitution and Bill of rights will take place ?
Will the unemployed get the day off ?
Hell, why stop there, gut the library of Congress and raze the Smithsonian in it’s entirety, for surely they can’t allow any rear view mirror to exist that will distract or remind. Hack..

Just another unconstitutional deflection of their responsibilities…

The picture…Look at those power-drunk parasites, so f**king full of themselves, basking in their own delusions of grandeur and self-inportance.

And we feed them.

“As an incentive for Congress to act, failure to do so would trigger $1.2 trillion in automatic spending cuts, affecting the Pentagon as well as domestic programs.”

Fail to act, please?
