Now the last thing I don’t get is congress. These guys take an oath to serve the country, not call names, not obstruct each other, not get in front of a camera, not fake it like they care, cause if they did, they’d compromise, walk across the isle pour each other a drink (they do it at night anyway) and start working.
Not take the summer off and do the blame thing. That’s my biggest gripe. Live to their promise.
As far as the public if we would stop fighting each other and turn our attention to all of congress, these guys would wake up and get to work, but they don’t have to because most are in districts or states that give them a lock on another term and most people don't vote.
I wonder how the entire pol. system could be made more reasonable, more attentive of facts and less on big-$$ manufacturing facts and access and ... .
When one applies for a job, it's not w/t.v. broadcasts denouncing your competitors, and doing whatever you want; the employer sets the rules, in the main. Now, how could that be effected in selecting gov. employees?These days, it seems so much w/$$$ --and whom the candidate must kiss behind to so to get the $$$.
It is also dismayingly sad to see the state of the Fourth Estate, where "news" --"fake" or otherwise-- is so much eye-ball catching, entertainment-oriented, lame hype. And at a greatly heightened frequency, courtesy of hi-tech.
