Where have all the leaders gone?!


So I have been doing allot of reading and research on these new purposed and now new legislation's. What on earth is this nation coming to? When did we say it was okay to let these schmucks in Washington spend all our hard earned tax dollars frivolously!!! Don't get me wrong I am all for great programs that work. Nothing is working and I don't think throwing money at ridiculous things is going to work. The only thing I can think of is that they all live in another world. Their world. What happened to "by the people for the people." Where have all the leaders gone?

When was it okay to support and back the "entitlement Syndrome"? I know, let's give everybody what they think they deserve and more for doing less than they ever have! Nothing good can come of that! Look at California the easiest and most well paid welfare system in the nation. Not a wonder why everybody flocks there. Don't forget they like to spend and not cut.

There are people out there that need assistance & deserve it. Those people are not who I am talking about. Who's regulating these programs that always get passed? Where have all the leaders gone?

I hate to think what our Fore Fathers would be saying to us if they came back and saw what was going on. These men had vision! They new that freedom wasn't free. It came at a great cost to them and those who sealed it with their blood. They understood that there is a price for freedom. No matter what that cost was it was paid because they knew and understood that freedom was worth it. Where is that mentality. Why aren't the American people up in arms? Have we given up? Why are we taking these things laying down! I just heard that American Idol had 10,000,000 more votes last night than last year. What does this tell us? More people want to bury their head in a reality show than take action and make waves in the political chaos. I can't believe it. Your vote might make a difference on the show but that vote doesn't get your future and children's future back.

It is a sad day when more people think is more important to vote American Idol than a Political Election.

I know everyone has their own beliefs and ideas. Now is the time to stand up for those ideals. I don't really care at this point what they are. I just would like to see more people doing something!! This is what makes America great. All the different ideas and philosophies.

Let us no matter what our differences come together for the future of our children and the good of our Country.

The difference between a good leader and a great leader is he or she amongst all differences looks for the similarities and good in all situations and people!

I wish those prideful, greedy, over-paid so called leaders would understand that a little better.

Where have all the leaders gone? Crazy!!!
