Its Time To Throw The Bums Out.

       Some years back Democrats held majorities in Congress. They didn't do all that great a job and so the voters of America took those majorities away from the Democrats and gave it to the Republicans. Well now the Republicans have had that majority in both houses of Congress and, well let's face it, they haven't done such a good job either.
       My hope is that now, finally, the Democrats have learned a lesson and deserve another chance to lead America into prosperity and fair handedness. After all, we can't really do any worse with Democrats in control instead of continuing with a Republican led road blocked nightmare. At some point we've got to expect one or both parties to get it into their heads that they have to be leaders, not roadblocks.
       It would be wonderful if somehow we were suddenly granted one wish and we had a Congress that always agreed and always worked together for the greater good. But since we've got what we've got, I think its time to hand the reins of government back to the Democrats. If they don't do a good job, we can always give it back to the Republicans again next time.
       I know, I know, it sounds like I'm proposing a yoyo policy of governance, but its what we've got to work with. And until someone comes up with a way to scare our elected officials into doing the right thing, its what we've got. So I'm voting Democrat and I hope you will too. And if the new Congress doesn't work out, four years from now I'll be the first to suggest some changes.
