I just want to be a kid again. I hate this reality I'm in (doesn't make me feel better to know you're in it, too) where the government won't listen to the people they represent. Sure, they've done it before, but $700 billion dollars? Our grandkids are going to be paying for this. This isn't the only way. I've emailed, called, and faxed my Senators and my House Rep, and they're not listening anymore. As one of my girlfriends, Charissa, said: "Between this and the election, I think I'll just take up drinking instead."

I haven't done any faxing or calling like I did with the amnesty bill or the 'ports' deal but you are right--the government doesn't listen to us. It's certainly not a government (anymore) that is by or for the people. We just foot the bill for this crap while they sell us down the river.

And on a somewhat related note, I can't bring mysself to vote for either Obama or McCain. I'm going to vote Libertarian or for the Constitution Party candidate.
