When is the public going to wake up and realize the Politicians are in big moneys pocket.

And always have been.

The public will never wake up. Bank of America can go down the drain. As far as the tall tales from DC...what else is new? I was watching CNN this weekend....some idiot stated that Obama will go down in history as an economic genius.

I know we'll go down in history for having the worst and criminal economic times in history.

In the past the Justice dept and FBI would have been all over the crap that has been going on.

Not anymore. Any guesses why ?

I can venture a theory or three but it would just upset our forums Democrat friends...

Mothballs - solid point.

Its not about republican or democrat - its all politicians regardless of the letter by the name.

Its time to RENO - Re-Elect No One.

If you want real change, you have to change the people that are there. Not a few oh the Hill and the guy living on Penn. Avenue.

They are pretty much all serving more than one master. Not all of them - but most.

That was approved by the same group sitting at Capitol Hill right now.
