Incumbants

Idealism gone. Work ethic deleted No concept of service. Patriotism defeated Continual bulls**t. Same mistakes repeated Undermine the people. Honesty unseated More concerned with his wallet than the poor Believes he’s owed a king’s lifestyle and more Allowing terrorists inside our shore Never attempting to do what he is paid for Taking from the people. Watching liberty crack Smiling at the Camera while breaking the nation’s back. NO MORE INCUMBANTS!! TWO TERM LIMIT- ONE IN OFFICE AND ONE IN PRISON.

It seems we have the same political problems here too. As we age we shake our heads and wonder at the chaos around. God Bless Phyl

Per your blog comment, I will really miss you if you leave, but I do understand. The atmosphere has changed dramatically in the past few months. Hope you'll visit from time to time; I'd hate to lose touch. I really enjoy your political writes! Love, Carolyn

If we go to war, the current president can, by Constitution, remain in office for the duration of the war...Does that mean we might not have an incumbent? Or are we not sticking to the Constitution these days...on lawmaking and procedures? Just asking.

"No more Incumbants!! I hear you loud and clear! Two term limit should be enough! America is fading because these two parties who argue and fight like little kids when they "Know" what needs to be done to improve the situation, and instead, choose, out of greed, to something else. It's never enough for carnal man. Peace, Audrey

Lead the charge, Vince, I'll be right behind you in voting out those incumbants. In fact, I don't believe I'll be voting for anyone connected with either major party. We need some independent thinkers, not lambs who follow the mindless to the slaughter. Awesome! Way to go, Vince! Love, Carolyn

A poem presenting a solution...it takes a couple reads to understand the standpoint, way to stir the pot
