They Do Not Give Up!!!!!!, page 1

Well I'm saying that "democracy" is bull# and the average politician will SAY anything to get re-elected. What they "do" is another matter... and I'd go so far as to say that in the short term, they will walk the walk for the purpose of their own vanity... but in the end, they are in the den of the dragon. Disturb the dragon too much, and it will eat you. The politicians know this, and if they don't, they may just get a very rude awakening in the following months and years to come.

The political arena is bought and paid for by the corporations and the bankers. THAT is what I'm saying. Don't bother trying to jump start a machine that hasn't worked in almost 100 years. If congress is so pro-constitutional republic, then why this constant decline over the last hundred years to the point where we're at right now? Continue trusting in this bull#? It's been almost 100 years or more with CONSTANT decline in the state of affairs of this nation's people, and we're all still saying "go out and write to so and so and go out and vote. It works!". Are you joking? Are you all so preoccupied with your contrived and socially conditioned life (in general, not directed at you specifically) that you haven't noticed everything that has gotten us here? Rigged politics is a LARGE factor here, and the ones that care are not able to make a dent when the option of selling out and making it easy for you and yours is so lucrative to these people, and that is overwhelmingly exactly who we're asking to make changes. They don't give a damn about you, for the most part. They don't give a damn. If they had given a damn, they would have done more to protect our rights over the last 8 years... simple as that. The biggest constitutional violations in the history of America go grooving right through Congress relatively unchallenged, and you're expecting these cowards to do something to help you out? The time for an all out relvolt has passed a long time ago, man.... and you're sitting here telling us that we're gunna fix things by writing letters and leaving messages on an automated voice-mail system?

Politicians lie all the time and they will even do a little here and there just to save face. Re-election? If enough people think you've done all you could, boom there ya go, re-elected. Even so, the election system is highly suspect anyway, and I just don't buy into it anymore. It has never fixed America's problems because we continue to seemingly elect the exact person who is doing all he can against our favor. Maybe in the 19th century, the vote mattered, but not anymore. Not since the Corporate and financial takeover of the 20th century
