We have asked our Congress to do something. Now let’s ask them to vigorously debate this.. I mean. really get onto the floor of the House and Senate with real people in the audience and not empty seats like on CSpan. Let them really wrestle with this thorny issue and let them broadcast how the Congress is supposed to work and let the people chime in via blogs and emails and have a long drag out debate and get into the weeds with all of us participating. We have the technology. Let’s support our Congress. Let’s see If they are serious and are not making quick back room deals that leave us out of the deal. Let’s force these people who claim that they want to be Senators and Congress-people to do their job right in front of us, on TV and on Internet and let’s solve this issue and at the same time let our Congress people know that ALL of us, not just the special interests, are watching and will hold them accountable, not only for what they say but what they do. It is time, VOTERS, for all of us to stand up and to call out our elected representatives. No more hiding behind Obama, or party meetings, or Harry Reid with his “Dead on Arrival” policy. No more allowing them to say, “Oh, well” and “Ah, shucks” and all of that phony baloney. No more publicity from Chuck Schumer and John Mc Cain. Let’s call them all out and see who they really are not only their veneer. And while we are at it, let’s call out Jay Carney, the Obama Press Secretary for all of his “bull!@!@” Lets demand that Jay tell us the real truth or just shut up and close down the propaganda room because it certainly is not a news room.
