At what point do we tell Wahington DC Enough Already?
I spend my days writing letters and sending email my latest
Dear Governor Schwarzanegger,
Do your constituents in California dislike her as much as the rest of the country.
Having lived in California for many years until moving to Missouri it's like home to me.
I speak to many different people during the course of a day and I can tell you I've never met anyone that had a kind word for her.
She's nuts! You need to run her out of the state preferably the country
I have already emailed Ms. Pelozi and explained to her this
"Are you aware of how the American public views you and you agenda?"
"God save us from the politicians!"
Quite frankly this woman is meanace to society as well as a burden on the taxpayers.
I myself do not believe she has enough sense to pound sand in a rat hole.
It is my sincere belief that the word nincompoop was coined after her.
Geeze can't she see that by allowing illegal aliens to roam free and take jobs that should go to American citizens she is b
here is the rest
burdening your state for financial funds and she want's the taxapayer to suffer the burden of caring for them. Beside all of that, it is allowing the gangs and the crime and drugs to run rampant from the Mexican/ American borders to the Canadian/American borders. Enough is enough. As governor of one of the most beautiful states in the union it boils down to you are the one that has got to start getting rid of her.
For the sake of the American Citizens and for the country that you and I love. Get her GONE!

I'm not a coward nor have I ever been a coward. I do know something about the history of slavery and where it began and by whom and what countries did it first. Apparently you do not. Your comments are reprehensible. By what right do you have to call anyone of any color a coward.

“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.”

We have GOT to pressure the media to do their job. Most people simply don't take the time or put forth the effort to become educated on all that's happening in Washington. Politics, to them, are a waste of time. (My own husband among those people) So, until something is on the news they don't even know it's in the works, and by then it's usually to late!!
It's just sad the way our media is so eager to report on the behaviors of celeb's but can't report on our own government, with honesty and integrity. (The facts, just the facts, and let US decide!!)
We the people are getting the proverbial wool pulled over our eyes and to many seem to believe they are helpless to stop it. This is wrong, WE are where the "power" of government lies. WE need to be more assertive in letting our elected officials and our media know that we ARE focused on what it is they're doing in Washington!
Thankfully the video you linked about immigration is over a year old and that crafy legislation failed. BUT look out, they'll try it again just as soon as they believe we're looking the other direction!

They're not listening -- the phone lines were jammed w/ people calling in in opposition before they passed their pig-bill. How did they respond? They passed it as quickly as possible -- w/o even reading it.
I say we attack the Media enterprises -- if Congress won't listen, we need the media back on our side. If nobody watched their BS programming, they'd have to take a stand...pull their dusty balls out of the top drawer of their desk and exercise a little journalistic integrity or face the grim reality of the NY Times and LA Times...bankruptcy.

The only way that those in Washington D.C. will ever listen to " We the People" is by voting all of them out of office! This means both sides of the isle!
