The Republican propaganda machine is having less and less effect. The result is the Republican politicians simply ignore the will of the people.

And you saying that the other side of the isle is listening ? I am calling bull crud.

There ain't one politician in this country who gives a dam about you, or me.

Pay no attention to what they say. Look at their history and personality.

Forget the micro, think in macro.

The candidates are so varied I am sure ignoring the rhetoric they are forced to utter will lead you to someone acceptable.

I for one would love to know the truth how this was allowed to happen and who has been covering up what. The EPA lady that shouldn't have needed to do anything that would make her resign, did, and your POS Governor isn't in prison. Yet

You know, everyone should beware that word 'all.' It can turn most any political statement into bullshit.
