Money Still Talks. It's About All That Does.

So President Obama held a meeting with leaders of congress. They all agreed the meetings were very helpful. There was a feeling of being able to work together, of potential bi-partisan friendship and the need to understand the desires of each other. In other words, nothing is changed. Neither party is w3illing to agree to anything the other wants to do. The Republicans realize they are in complete control of the federal government now and will not agree on any measure the Democrats bring up. For their part, the Democrats will continue to try to force Republicans to accept all Democratic initiatives. Like I said, nothing has changed. Except that this continued childish nonsense is bringing our country to it's knees. These poor souls don't seem to care. Unless they get their own way, neither party will do the right thing. Meanwhile, unemployment continues to climb, those out of work for extended periods of time will apparently be set adrift with no help. Taxes could rise for everyone unless cuts are given to everyone, especially the very rich. In the meantime, teachers are being let go so that our education, which is already falling behind, will continue it's slide to mediocrity. Jobs and industry continues to be shipped overseas by an uncaring management. Actually that's not quite true. Management does care. It cares that it continues to receive obscene bonuses and salaries for shipping those jobs overseas. It's a heck of a world, isn't it? Actually, it's a heck of a country isn't it? Do you still wonder why I think term limits are a great idea? How do you go about getting the attention of these folks that are supposed to be representing us? I guess there's only one way to get their attention. Give them a million $$$ donation for their reelection campaign.
