When is enough, enough and how long will people endure the total catastrophe occupying the hallowed halls of our nation’s capitol? The speaker of the house spews bald-faced lies (as do most current politicians) while engineering inside deals for self-aggrandizement. Why is she still in office? Politicians socialize with the world’s despots, rape our financial system, while mortgaging many future generations. ACORN promotes voter fraud and ballots are re-counted until the desired outcome is achieved. Our non-representative representatives disregard the will of the people and rubber stamp history’s largest spending bill without reading it.

Billions are squandered protecting other nation’s borders, while debilitating our infrastructure and refusing to protect our own. They prosecute our innocents while releasing terrorists, and as Sonny and Cher sang, “the beat goes on” and on and on with ever increasing momentum.

This run-a-way train needs brakes applied before an unthinkable tragedy occurs and civil unrest ensues. If that happens, we could suffer martial law, abolition of the 2nd amendment and subsequent loss of freedom. Is there an iota of common sense or traditional value left in our government? They are intentionally reducing us to third world status! Will the lethargic, apathetic, masses awaken in time?
