Term Limits

Just a little epiphany.

I have never been for legal term limits. It's a kind of nannyism I don't like. We already have term limits: elections.

However, our election process has been bastardized by corrupt politicians for years. Gerrymandering has made elections less free and honest. It has almost guaranteed incumbent wins, and made it all but impossible for elections to function as term limits in the way the founders intended.

As a result of the criminals' manipulation of the system, I think I am now totally in favor of forced, legal term limits.

We have to fight back...we have to undermine their exploitation of the processes of freedom to institute tyranny.

"OF" the People, "BY" the People, "FOR" the People

Term Limits for Congress!

The "leaders for life" currently running Washington have become so isolated from real life, they no longer work for the people. They are no longer "of" the people. And the mess we have is directly attributable to their sense of permanent "ruling". They begin to believe they know better than The People. They forget they work for us. They forget the ARE us.

Obama simply could not get his outrageous program crammed down our throats in 11 weeks without a compliant, unaccountable Congress.

One Term. Then they have to go home and get real jobs. And obey the laws they passed, pay the taxes they imposed, abide by the regulations they enacted.

Things would suddenly be very different if Barney Frank (et al) had to get a job, or try to run a business, pay his taxes, make a payroll, hire & fire, cope with unemployment, buy his own health-care, and provide for his own retirement.
