Getting elected to public office in the U.S. is an expensive process mostly limited to the rich or their proxies, allowing a few privileged individuals to run our government. This fact and years of failed communications with them leads me to a sad conclusion...Once elected, public officials contract a special deafness limiting their hearing range to benefactor's agendas and lobbyists. The rest of us get automatically generated e-mails, form letters, discretionary call backs and rhetoric...

Boehner and House Republicans Tell AMERICA...SCREW YOU!
JOHN BOEHNER AND HOUSE REPUBLICANS and other elected officials sit at home doing NOTHING while our country comes to another crisis CREATED BY their inability to do anything more than live it up on fattened salaries and mega-benefits while spewing moral hypocrisy. YOU ARE pushing 'we, the people' to the brink.
Thomas Jefferson said, "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." (a)
This decision is not a hard one. Turn your eyes on the Congressional Budget for your budget cuts...LEAVE MEDICARE, SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICAID ALONE!
Thomas Jefferson went on to say, "All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent." (a) This note is me not remaining silent. I am letting you know, collectively, this Congress is the biggest failure in our country's history of elected officials. When will you take the blinders off and listen to the majority of the people in this country and DO YOUR JOBS!
President Kennedy invited the brightest minds in the nation to a dinner when he was in office. At that dinner he said, "This is perhaps the assembly of the most intelligence ever to gather at one time in the White House with the exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."
He would probably be physically ill watching the carnage you are reaping on our nation. AND WHERE ARE YOU? ON VACATION....
