What are we allowing our government to do? I have long been a seeker of honesty in our government and I agree that we need to regain our freedom to create value and be wealthy, happy and at peace within our country. For so long we have had our rights to happiness and prosperity taken away in order for career politicians and other cheats to make their unearned living at the expense of us, the hard working individual American. I believe that the only function of government is to provide the conditions that let individuals fulfill the purpose of human life which is to prosper and live happily. If there was a party that could guarantee that function of government and could prove its intentions in an honest way, I would join it in a second!We are so overshadowed by big governmet that we can no longer see our dream forest for the crooked trees! remI invite all Americans to comment on this blog and perhaps we can make some very real changes happen before we implode as a nation.
Randy/Rick, I sense your anger and frustration at the arrogant and defiant manner the president and the democratic majority are ignoring the "will of the people". Ditto for me!!!! We still have the power of the vote to "send them packing"; so lets do it!!!! I am sure potential replacements accross this country are watching and learning that that such behavior will not be condoned or tolorated, and know they will suffer the same fate as their predecessors if they exhibit the same behavior. Very resonating posts guys.

I agree Rick! When this Country was founded, we were guarenteed the right to elect people to REPRESENT us as a Nation. The citizens had the power!! That is what made this a great Nation. I would really like to know when we started electing LEADERS instead of REPRESENTITIVES? I would also like to know who made this decision. A lot has changed; and away from our original goals as a Country. We, the people, have to take this power back to where it was originally meant to be.
