Reply #2: the leadership in DC isn't listening to people...

[cenacle]

like you or me or the majority of those tending to vote their way. Or even a lot of the Congress people. I really think that two parties only and the idea of democracy just don't go all that well together. People need choices all along the spectrum of thought, not just, as the film "Waking Life" says, the puppet on the left or the puppet on the right.

The more I type this, the more I realize how sick I am of all this. The leading bastards in Congress don't seem to give a damn for the War in Iraq or the poor in the US and everywhere in the world. There are good folks in DC but there's either not enough or they are not figuring a way to bust through the wall of special interests and evil.

If it's Hillary on the top of the Dems ticket I'll hold my nose and vote. But I don't think I'm alone in thinking things are changing that if Hillary, or Edwards or Obama or whoever, does win, he/she better fear for his/her office from day one if he/she doesn't come in and do the work of the people. End the War. Eat the Rich. End the needless suffering in this world. Convince us he/she means it.
