Apathy

Apathy - 1. Lack of emotion. 2. Indifference.
Definition from Webster's American Dictionary. I think the current political situation is best defined by "indifference". About a week ago I was discussing my blog with someone who follows it. They were pretty fed up with the current situation, so I asked them if they had called Dodd and Leiberman's offices about the Stimulus Bill. They told me that they didn't feel qualified to call and voice their opinion. Please remember, these people are not Gods (although some think they are), they were elected to office and work for us, not the other way around. We have the power to remove any one of them any time we wish. There is no course you take at school that makes you qualified to call. If you don't like what going on, call them and tell them. You don't have to be specific, you can say you want to raise or lower taxes, or you want more or less government spending, or you want more or less gun control. They do pay attention, especially if they get the feeling that if they don't listen they may be voted out of office. I know some of you out there are saying "what's the sense, they're all the same". OK, maybe they are. Then how about we clean house and remove every last one of them, and if they behave the same way, we keep going until they start behaving the way they should.
Get involved, right now we are being mugged. Billions of dollars are being spent on Liberal special interests - Environmental Wackos, Unions, Acorn, etc. Did you know that the Stimulus Bill is giving every American a tax cut? Starting around June your withholding will be reduced by about $7.50 a week, if you don't make too much. Billions & Billions being given away and you get a tax cut of $7.50 a week. Don't spend it all it one place, you might overheat the Economy!
