Politics

harry-reid-fingerYou have a beautiful state, full of fun things to see and experience. You don’t need your own Senator wishing you fail, right?

Big Love’s been representing you in one form or another since 1966. Politically speaking, he’s entrenched, with a wonderful health care and retirement package [which he probably won't use since the ego boost of telling people to get fucked every five minutes is powerful].

He no longer has any respect for the wants and needs of his constituents and you’re the people who can -and should- kick him to the curb.

On Wednesday, before he addressed a Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce luncheon, Reid joined the chamber’s board members for a meet-’n'-greet and a photo. One of the last in line was the Review-Journal’s director of advertising, Bob Brown, a hard-working Nevadan who toils every day on behalf of advertisers. He has nothing to do with news coverage or the opinion pages of the Review-Journal.

Yet, as Bob shook hands with our senior U.S. senator in what should have been nothing but a gracious business setting, Reid said: “I hope you go out of business.”

Later, in his public speech, Reid said he wanted to let everyone know that he wants the Review-Journal to continue selling advertising because the Las Vegas Sun is delivered inside the Review-Journal.

Term limits people! Term limits! Why are we sending lawyers to Washington for life? They stop working for us after awhile and start working for themselves.

Just think about it, k? You have the power to enact change. Repeat after me: Yes, we can! Yes, we can!

    We also need a new law that makes Lawyers (Trained Liars), Tax Cheats, Felons, spouse cheaters to start, ineligible to run for the House and Senate, on second thought, any public office, local, state, or federal. Also no more then 1 term allowed unless the voters themselves re-elect by write in option – in other words, if you are on the ballet and elected, your name cannot appear on the ballet again but you can be re-elected by a write in vote only.

    Let’s see. That newspaper is the largest in the state. Didn’t I read somewhere that it isn’t very smart to get into a pissing match with those who buy ink by the barrel?

    Big Love… ha and argh. The “Mormons” on that TV show aren’t Mormons. Let’s not confuse the Mormon church with the polygamists (fake and/or real) on TV who call themselves Mormon.

    And whether most Mormons like it or not, Reid is a real Mormon and not one of the many people (some polygamists) who claim to be Mormon. So “Big Love” isn’t accurate at all.

    Term limits… Sweet dreams, that. But like Patti wrote, it ain’t gonna happen.

    Term limits do have downsides, it’s kinda of like which is less evil.

    Michigan has term limits for all in house politicians, thank the good lord we will be getting rid of Jenny on the chopping block next year but my in house congress critter, a good one for my city was term limited out last year and a dumocrat that doesn’t give a shit was voted in.

    But on the good side, the term limited out congresscritter is now the Superrvisor (re Mayor) of my city so bonus!

      Hmmm… thanks for the perspective. I guess there are good and bad aspects of term limits… but just think if Ted or Harry or Nancy were limited to two terms? Heh Heh Heh….

    There are at least 2 good congress critters in NC that I know of – neither of them mine. But these 2 would be good nuggets for the beginning of a turn in the direction and behavior of congress as a whole. At least one of them is already in his 3rd term, the other is a woman. I’d hate to see them booted. They of course could always then be senate critters for a couple terms – if there were limits.
    It doesn’t matter anyway – term limits in congress will never, ever happen.

    since We The People put those jerks in office why can’t we just take them out of office and put in term limits? – If I am not mistaken they work for us, they just need to have it brought to their attention – lets put a couple in jail for the crimes they commit to wake the others up – also I was wrong in my lawyer statement, I was just a little upset at the time. There are some very good and honest lawyers out there I have met over the years -
