I think one thing we can all agree on is that both parties are completely F#$(&ed Up.

Having done some work for Scott Brown in
the past, I can tell you he is one honest dude.
If unhappy the best way to do something here
in MASS is vote for Scott.

I believe that the majority of freshmen senators go to Washington to make change for the people. But, when they get there and they plan on voting down ear marks etc:, the seinor senator puts his hand on the freshmans shoulder and says, "Son if you do not vote for what I want, your state will get nothing." He/she falls in line like a duck, one behind the other.

I think you all need to see Jimmy Stewart in Mr Smith Goes to Washington. best political movie ever. Its not the Dems or repubs issue, its a national issue. LEADERSHIP - courage under fire, vision, thats what we need.

making s-b.com a kinder, gentler place for all

Good flick, one of the best.

However, people like that left politics when the monkey second did.

Jimmy wanted to get everyone riled up. I just wanted to bring us all back together again.

It's a long winter. Plenty of time to get under each other's skin due to liberals killing babies while spending all our money and the conservatives generally just giving everyone the finger while waiting for the mid-term elections.
