Our beloved representatives in Washington seem to think that most of us are half-witted. Or maybe that's just on their wish list.
It would really be cost effective for them to put something in the water that would mentally incapacitate us. Then it would be so much easier to pilfer from our pocketbooks. Just think, no more embarrassing town hall meetings, either, where the citizenry is better informed than they are about the bills they support.
As it is now, important legislation quickly gets uploaded to the Internet, where many of us study it far more thoroughly than do our beloved representatives. Most of them seem to have such trust in our Teleprompter-In-Chief, that they don't feel the need to know what they're voting on.
Take health care, for instance. The President himself, when questioned by a blogger, said He wasn't familiar with the provision that would kill private insurance. What kind of leadership is this? Particularly, when He has promised that private insurance would remain viable.
Then there's climate change. It's been going on for billions of years, but now we're supposed to panic because Al Gore and the Prez say we're causing it, and we're all going to die if we don't spend a lot of money to hamstring our economy. They can talk all they want, but as long as we have our wits about us, most of us will recognize this for the self-serving lie it is.
This is an intelligent nation. We will not put up with this campaign to to turn us into a second-rate country. We are outraged at our leaders who apologize to foreign heads-of-state, and denigrate the greatest free nation on Earth.
This tyranny of mediocrity is doomed to failure. They have underestimated us.
