What with all the greed and corruption in the government in the last 10 years, I've decided to post this info for those of you fed up with all the lie's!
This post is about the people's right to know how there elected officials choose to represent there constituents and How they choose to put the rights and interests of there lobbyist friends and corporate backers ahead of the very people they are suppose to work for!
But More Importantly....
This is about the special interests, corporate greed, corruption and control, that they hold, and the pay-to-play lobbying. We need to focus on fighting corporate and political corruption on all levels of government to preserve the future of our nation!

Spred the word and disseminate this information Everywhere! It is not being reported well in mainstream media If at all !!!. Also please cross post this blog on -- your blogs, Facebook, Twitter , and all of your contacts. Cross-post and blog this information everywhere!
With knowledge comes power and with that power comes control and a responsibility to make this country great again!
You can choose to be a dimwitted and mindless sheep by listen to the GOP and there big business puppet masters, constant lies and propaganda over on Fox news, or you can make the intelligent choice by making yourself aware of the facts and agendas of our so called leaders, Democrat and Republican alike..... it's simple really if your congressman looks out for big business over the interests of average working man or woman, then it's time to kick them to the curb!
No more millionaire blue blood royalty controlling congress year after year, No more Unlimited campaign backing by big business leading to corrupt corporate control of our elected officials, " and i use that term loosely " No more rich getting richer off the backs of the poor and middle class well simultaneously bankrupting our country, No more lobbyist influences in congress!!
Behind every great fortune, there's a greater heist! It's the rich that run this country and have driven it into the ground! We now have two needless war's and an unimaginable amount of tax payer money wasted not to mention the ten's of thousands of lives lost, both solder and civilian! All of this unnecessary pain and suffering based off of the lies told by The Bush Administration! The same lies that continue to be embraced by far to many members of congress, primarily the GOP, though there are fools on both sides!
Make no mistake you are nothing to them but a potential voter, someone to lie too come the next election, you are nothing but a number in the ballot !
Congress vote themselves a pay raise " ON THE TAX PAYER'S DIME " while at the same time denying an increase on living wages for people on social security or disability, ( money that they have payed into there entire working lives) Then try to lower minimum wage and increase the retirement age, Let them live on minimum wage and actually work for a living for a year and see how fun it is!! unfortunately that will never happen!
The rich get richer and the poor suffer! The rich start wars and the poor die!
When they want you to buy something they'll tell you, when they want you to say something they'll let you know, and when they want you to die in there next war they'll come and get you!!
Be an individual, make your own decisions, and create a better future for the next generation.
It's time to take back control of our country and make it the way it was always meant to be!!!......( A country by the People, for the People, and of the People, )
No more buying an Election!!! No more corporate Manipulation!!
Make them accountable for there actions!!!
It's your choice!
Spread the word!
