The 2010 Mid-Term Election

The nation is facing daunting challenges and what do we get from our elected leaders more partisanship and more squabbling then actually fixing the nations woes. All these politicians care about is what will happen in November and what will happen to their own political skin. Neither political party seems to even show the slightest concern for the plight of average Americans!

Now is the time for the people to take back their country from the financial ruin inflicted by both Democrats and Republicans! To do this Americans have to start taking responsibilities for themselves and start holding Washington accountable for their actions.

This means not falling victim to slick campaign slogans and understanding the issues before the nation. Too often people listen to what they want to hear, instead of asking tough questions or finding out the information on their own.

Everyone has opinions on the Tiger Woods scandal, but have anyone express and intelligent thought about health care reform, economic issues, or any other issue and all you get is a blank stare. We need to understand what is going on in our own country and press our leaders to solve these pressing issues.

Too often we fall victim to slick commercials that give half truths and innuendoes then about the real facts. We need to make sure that we press our leaders on how they will tackle these problems, and not be gullible when we know that the numbers don’t add up.

If we want our country back it is up to us to force Washington to stop wallowing in the muck of partisanship and start taking care of the nations business!
