Politicians

If they refuse to step up
to do what needs to be done
we'll find a place for them 
out under the sun.

If they continue to quibble
and won't lend a hand
we'll leave all their bones
to bleach white the sand.

I agree, Stanfield. I think in order for politicians to be eligible for re-election, they must show accomplishments for their constituents in their past term. If they can't, they need to find another job. If you are inept at your job, see what happens to you!

Thanks L. Milton :) My blood's beginning to reach the boiling point as I watch the antics of both "major" parties. The sad truth is that a whole lot of people don't see any point in voting. We need to clear out a whole lot of dead wood.
