It seems to me that the Republicans have forgotten who they work for, with their filibustering and stalling tactics on healthcare, banking reform and anything else the Obama administration should put forward on behalf of the American people. Rather than work to help us out of the great recession that their predecessors put us in, they would prefer to sit on their hands as they did during the state of the union address.
In my many years as a small business man, I fired any employee that behaved this way! In this case they work for We The People, not We The Corporation and so this independent will take their lead as the party of “no” and vote for “no Republican” come November.
The blue dog Democrats haven’t done much better, but at least they are trying.
In this economy the people are working twice as hard to keep their jobs, why should our representatives be any different? As owners of this country we need to establish a zero tolerance policy for those who refuse to work as hard as we do on our behalf. When we elected these people, the job description was to represent us, not to represent the special interests with the deepest pockets. No business can survive when its employees are busy selling out to their corporate competitors. We need the change we voted for in November of 08, not business as usual!
