The latest Gallop Poll came and went with hardly a nod. Usually the MSM is all over it pointing out how low the presidents approval rating is, but this time the Democrat controlled Congress has a lower approval rating. 33% to 29%. When you break down the results they show what we have been saying all along. Republicans and Democrats are tired of politics as usual as are Independents.

From talking to people on the streets, in stores and in my neighborhood I seem to be hearing a very common theme, quit playing politics and run the freakin country. In Florida the legislators adjourned for break and you would have thought they actually accomplished something this session, they didn’t do jack. They passed a couple bills that were non-controverial, yet did nothing to solve the Homeowners Insurance crisis or the Property Tax issue. During the elections they all talked about how that would be their # 1 priority, but instead they pissed and moaned around and accomplished nothing substantial.

On the national level the Democrats in Congress have been beating a dead horse with de-funding and surrender bills while real problems that need to be solved continue to backlog. Republicans are too busy trying to pull the party back together to really mount any offense against the Democrats. Americans want substance and instead they are getting fluff and non-sense. Almost all the Democrats and all the Republicans voted for the war, and now instead of standing by their principles, most are trying to deny they did it.

Than we have the president. He has been a poor communicator since the Iraq War began. When the whole world knew that WMD hadn’t been found, 8 months passed before he said it officially. Than he told people that WMD weren’t really the issue yet unless you are the average dumb American all I can remember leading up to the war was Bush, Rice, Cheney, Powell, Congressmembers everyone saying the word WMD. The war has been poorly run and when almost everyone knew it was being mismanaged, instead of accepting Rumsfeld’s resignation, Bush allowed him to run the war for almost another two years.

My wish is that the American public from both sides of the political spectrum can get together and put an end to the reign of fools we are under now. Are you really stupid enough to believe that ANY politicians give a crap whether gas prices rise, or that they can really identify with the working family or the single mother who has to almost kill themselves putting food on the table or clothes on your kids backs. They have servants and nannys to do that job. They are worthless, pathetic rich kids who prey on the minorities, uneducated and on average family and it is time to stop them before it’s too late.
