Ok, OK I have really fallen behind here. To be honest politics are making me feel ill right now. The vapidity and wrangling of both parties are driving me mad. So I took a bit of a “sick leave” from this so I could try to recover. (I might have to race to the bathroom though so please excuse me if I make a run for it in the middle of this.)
I find it interesting though that the Democrats are looking at the tea party and thinking that the republicans are to divided while at the same time the democrat candidates up for reelection are trying to distance themselves from Obama as fast as they can.
I heard a report recently that Mr. Obama went to NYC for a fundraiser. When he was elected there were tons of people who voted for him, but when he showed up for this fundraiser they couldn’t give away the tickets.
This was reported by the Washington post!
The venue would seat 650 people.
Tickets were on sale for $100 (not a thousand or Anything real in cash just one hundred dollars… heck I could have afforded THAT.)
They ended up having to mark them down to FIFTY dollars.
And they still couldn’t sell all the tickets (they fell about 200 people short of their capacity.)
MIND YOU this was so people could sit down to dinner with THE PRESIDENT of the United States of America!
So I have to wonder which party is really ripping apart?
Maybe it is time to replace BOTH parties with politicians who will…
(a) listen to their constituents,
(b) Do what they say they will,
(c ) put the good of the people and this country before their own selfish wants.
That seems to be what every one else in this country wants, and I think it is time for the politicians in office to hear that message.
