   All potent examples demonstrating the need for term limits amd other changes in DC …

   1. I suggest 2 terms in the Senate (12 years) and 5 terms in the House (10 years) as plenty … then back to the real world with the rest of us …

   2. End the current retirement program in Congress … let them contribute to Social Security, Medicare, 401k retirement accounts and so forth like the rest of America …

   BTW … how much money is lost to Social Security and Medicare because these various levels of government employees get their bloated pensions but don’t contribute to these programs …

   3. Require anyone currently holding an elected office to resign from that office when they decide to run for a different office … Re-election to the same office would be the exception …

   I don’t know about the rest of you but I am tired of paying people for a job they are not doing while they run for a new job …

   In other words … in 2008 John McCain, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, et al, would have had to resign from the Senate in order to run for president …

    Where is the House Republican leadership on these investigations? If the Republicans are in the majority, I assume they have the upper hand on moving these things forward. If not, start naming names. I will call these Republicans and ask why they are complicit in these Congressional representative crimes and violations of oath of office. I doubt they are delaying the investigations and findings so they can be released prior to the 2012 elections. The GOP establishment is corrupt to the core.

    Though I agree that the retirement plan could use an overhaul (i.e. they need to pay into it more than they do just like the private sector does), I do feel inclined to correct a few missnomers you have about Congressional pay and benefits.

    Members elected after 1984 do pay social securtiy and do pay into their penisions (though not nearly what a private sector worker pays for their 401k). Here is a link to some of the information regarding it.:

    Congressional pensions, like those of other federal employees, are financed
    through a combination of employee and employer contributions. All members pay
    Social Security payroll taxes equal to 6.2% of the Social Security taxable wage base
    ($90,000 in 2005). Members covered by FERS also pay 1.3% of full salary to the
    Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund. Members covered by CSRS Offset
    pay 1.8% of the first $90,000 of salary, and 8.0% of salary above this amount, into
    the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund.

    This is a common mistake made, because for the longest time (till 1984) that is exactly how it was and because so many members of Congress have been there forever we still have some members that are grandfathered in to the old system.

    I totally agree with you on term limits as we have seen just how badly power can corrupt.

    Swamp queen knows if she cleans the swamp, she will have to go too. And then, who would cover up for the rest of them?

    I know that republicans have ethical issues and investigations too. But really, if you made a list, wouldn’t the dems have at LEAST three times more? I have never compared the numbers, but just knowing the ethical make-up of regressives tells you they win in the battle of who is more corrupt.

    I suspect that a LOT of ads could be made on how corrupt the regressives are. But the play-nice republicans probably won’t do it. And if they dare, the dems will blast all over MSM about the negative campaigning.

Maybe I am wrong. But if Holder needs to be working these issues, there will be nothing done. Holder is more corrupt than the people he would be investigating. Until we get rid of EVERY LAST CORRUPT bastich in Congress AND the WH, we will not be prosecuting those cases. I pray we can get rid of them by legal elections. If not, there will be a large uprising that won’t be pretty.

    How do WE as citizens, fight this? Is their power so great that we are screwed? This can’t stand. We outnumber them and surround them. Their power must be stripped from them and then laws passed that severely limit those powers in the future. How have we allowed these evil jerks to have so much power that they can ruin the lives of millions of citizens AND their future generations? It is way past time to take this country back. Will we survive for another year and a half? I have some doubts about that. The corruption runs through the entire government and morality is no longer important. Remember the Inspector General who found corruption, blew the whistle, and was fired for “demetia”? Did anyone do anything about that?? It was clearly corruption. Did ANYONE investigate this (other than the conservative bloggers that the left call nutjobs, that is.)Can we, as citizens, SUE the federal government for malpractice? There has to be something we can do!

    I don’t know about you Happy but I used to sit quietly when my liberal friends were making fun of Palin or Bush or any conservative. I think the “silent majority” needs to open their (our) mouths and confront liberalism. It’s amazing to me how many people can repeat a lie they’ve heard on the liberal media without questioning the truth.
    So many people I know hate Rush Limbaugh but have never listened to him. They believe the media lies.
    Now, I challenge my liberal friends with facts. They can’t do that because the facts don’t support what they believe.

    Hi Happy! Glad to see you made it through the storm and are still with us.
    I remember ‘Walpingate’
    Another big scandal, totally ignored by the media…imagine that.

    http://www.examiner.com/religion-politics-in-wilmington/walpingate-scandal-largely-ignored

    Walpin’s investigation uncovered details implicating former NBA player turned mayor, Johnson, (seen alone above and below with the president) an Obama friend and associate, of “false and fraudulent conduct in connection with $845,018.75 in federal funds,” and that the inspector had referred the case to the US Attorney’s office for civil and criminal prosecution in 2008.

    Despite objections from inspector Walpin, Johnson was not prosecuted criminally. And when he (Walpin) was excluded from the negotiations to reach a repayment settlement with the suspect, his complaint was answered with a phone call from the White House to resign or be fired. When he refused, he was terminated 45 minutes after the call.

    In addition to the suspicious circumstances engulfing the Inspector General’s evisceration, the matter was also disposed of in a way that violates a law requiring the president to give 30-days notice to Congress before removing an IG and to explain the reasons for doing so.

    Ironically, Obama co-sponsored a bill during his brief tenure in the US Senate, which ultimately passed, that was intended to insure inspectors would be “free to investigate waste and fraud uninfluenced by political cronyism.”

    Until next time…

    After how the House GOP stood with Represntative “cold-cash” Jefferson regarding the issue of search warrants of Congressional offices I am not too hopefull that they would do anything if they could.

    Here’s a bit of a reresher on that one:

    Resentment boiled among senior Republicans for a second day on Tuesday after a team of warrant-bearing agents from the FBI turned up at a closed House office building on Saturday evening, demanded entry to the office of a legislator and spent the night going through his files. The episode prompted cries of constitutional foul from Republicans — even though the Congress member in question, Rep. William J. Jefferson of Louisiana, is a Democrat whose involvement in a bribery case has made him an obvious partisan political target.

    Speaker Dennis Hastert raised the issue personally with President Bush on Tuesday. The Senate Rules Committee is examining the episode. Rep. John A. Boehner, R-Ohio, the House majority leader, predicted the separation-of-powers conflict would land at the Supreme Court.

    I absolutely loathe Anthony Weiner, but…

    So long as Barney Frank sits in Congress, Weiner should not resign.

    So long as it’s politically incorrect to say that Barney Frank is a pervert, then I will object to Weiner’s attempts to attract members of the opposite sex as “pervy”.

    Does Weiner’s behavior technically fall under the definition of “perverted”? Perhaps; but if it does, then what Barney Frank has done throughout his entire, multiple-term career is clearly perverted… and until people who condemn Weiner start condemning Frank in the same terms, I will point my finger and cry, “P.C. hypocrite!”

    Pervert -
    a : to cause to turn aside or away from what is good or true or morally right : corrupt b : to cause to turn aside or away from what is generally done or accepted : misdirect
    2
    a : to divert to a wrong end or purpose : misuse b : to twist the meaning or sense of : misinterpret

    A couple of brief observations:
    The voters electing candidates to office are ultimately responsible for those so elected.

    If a citizen/voter’s standard is that character, morality and integrity don’t matter; if a citizen/voter is only attentive to political sound bites, not learning details about their candidates; then they’ve elected the right person.

    Which brings up the question of legislated term limits. We already have them: the ballot box.

    We, the complacent populace, need to cease blaming our elected officials for surprising us by behaving in otherwise predictable acts.

    You can see the tide turning but its not because of what Weiner did. They knew that the day he admitted it. They didn’t ask him to resign then. What changed?

    They either know more stuff is coming or he is in the way of their ambitions.

    I think its a little of both. A little Weiner goes a long way.

    Come on Weiner hang in there you’re the new, er, face of the liberal party.

    Guess they’ll have to include a St. Peter candle in their new logo.

    At least he represents truth in advertising for what the left has done to the people they claimed to help.

    I don’t think there is a lot they can do at this point. I am not well educated on the process of investigating corruption in Congress, but doesn’t the Attorney General have to be involved?

    Only if it is found the Peter Tweeter did something egregiously illegal and the cops get involved because of an obvious crime.

    Someone should be digging into what he tweeted to the 17yo, and what laws are on the books in her state, then asking why local prosecutors are not pressing charges.

    Otherwise, it’s nothing more than corrupt congressmen investigation those too stupid to keep their corruption under the radar.

    …similar to a frat house investigating a pledge breaking frat house rules.

    What these CONgress critters seem to forget is that they are REPRESENTATIVES of We The People. Where is our right to call for their investigation? Where is our right to call for their trial? Where is our right to call for their dismissal?

    …but remember when this first broke, Bela Pelosi said something to the effect that his constituents loved him, so she chose not to call for his resignation.

    As many know, pictures are worth a thousand words, and a few resignations. Some pictures came out, and Piglosi and others still defended him up until his X-rated shot became public. Piglosi couldn’t get to the media fast enough to call for his resignation.

    Same would have happened if there were pictures of Clinton, Lewinsky and a cigar.

    Same would have happened with Barney the Frank if he were diddling a page in a restroom.

    Same would have happened with Waters if she were pictured loudly proclaiming “No justice no peace” before whatever officials gave her bank the bailout.

    …although that last would have been a real problem for them. The left would have carefully weighed whether they could withstand the ensuing race riots in Bela Pelosi’s district if Waters were thrown out.

    Frank has openly admitted to being a sexual deviant. His playmate ran a homosexual brothel out of his apartment. The same thing *didn’t* happen.

    Has it been shut down? Have the public officials that let it happen been impeached or forced to resign?

    No? Then what Wiener did was as nothing.

    Don’t misunderstand; I’m glad to see him gone. His real perversions he committed on the floor of the House. The fact that he lied about his sexual peccadilloes is reason enough to force him to resign. As with Clinton, the lie is the issue.

    But, Frank has lied repeatedly and consistently, on the floor of the House, in the Congressional record, and… ::crickets::

    I will not sit quietly and let them pervert my culture by pushing the idea that Wiener is the pervert and Frank is a nice boy from Jersey.

    I would only add “the lie, and the encouragement of others to lie for him”, which apparently also applies in this case.

    Not just a Jew, but an influencial member of CONgress, and a member of a political party that evidently is allied with Islam. There might have come a time when the congressman renounced Judaism, when he was no longer so useful being Jewish, and converted to Islam.

    Sometimes personal sacrifices must be made to for the advancement of a greater agenda.

    I think it is probably safe to say that Weiner is just enough of a Jew during election time. I recall a passage from the Bible where the future Israelis are warned, don’t just beware your stated enemies but also the enemy Jew who is far more dangerous. It was probably a warning to beware the majority of the future Jewish Americans.

    I’m well aware the same thing didn’t happen. My point is it would likely have been considerably different if there were pictures. Far too many people, including a majority on the left refuse or have trouble believing something unless they see pictures.

    The Peter Tweeter is no different. Many defended him until the X-rated shot came out, along with a story about him tweeting a 17yo.
