Get Your Head Out Of Your Ass! (Political Rant)

I consider myself patriotic, a supporter for what the America stands for, and a proud supporter of our military and all they do fur us, domestic and foreign.  Yet, what was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this picture today?  It wasn't the pride of the military personnel.  It wasn't the pride in the bid American flag.  It was that there goes our military marching home because our government is in compete shutdown.

And why is our government in complete shutdown?  Because we have a bunch of complete dumbass people, yes people we all have elected, who can’t get their head out of their ass long enough to see what their personal agendas are doing to this great country.  I’m not picking on or singling out the Republicans, or the Democrats, or even the President.  I’M CALLING OUT EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!!  Politics in this country has gotten so far away from what it should be and was designed to be that the political system in general is a complete and total clusterfuck.  

Every last one of them are too busy pushing their own agendas and what will line their pockets to do what is right or expected of them by those that elected them and that they are supposed to represent.  They all spend money the government does not have and keep raising debt ceilings so they can spend more.  (If we “normal people” tried that and conducted our business that way we would be broke and in jail)  They push programs and policies down our throat that a majority of people do not want.  The two political sides have gotten so far apart and to the extreme edges, it would take them weeks to even agree on what to have for lunch, no less how to run a country.  

For the past few years, the U.S. economy has been at the forefront of problems and concerns.  Money has been pumped into the economy to try to keep it going and get tings rolling again.  Unemployment is a major concern.  Our government is constantly looking of r ways to boost the economy or claim they are creating jobs.  Well don’t look now, but they just sent hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people home without pay because the government is in shutdown mode.  How does that help the economy?  How does that help create new spending and jobs?  How does that keep more families from struggling?  And why?  Because being stubborn and standing by your Political Party and not giving in is apparently more important than the people who elected you and who you are supposed to represent.  Because apparently your own agenda is more important than all the people just sent home without a job.  Because now the workers that actually do help those that depend on the government can’t help, and those in need are that much more worse off then they already were.

Wake up Washington!  Get your head out of your Political Parties ass and see what you are doing to this great nation.  Take a look at what you are doing to this country.  You are making us much worse than you are better.  You are showing us all what you are really made of and why you really wanted to be elected…not for us but for yourself.  And yes, that goes for you too Mr. President.  You of all people should get off your high horse and own political agenda and realize what this is causing, and should be sitting in the middle demanding everyone get over themselves.  Instead, even the liberal media can see right through the fact that you are standing your own ground and not budging.  Your own agenda is more important than what is best for this country.  And I’m sorry, but your standing ground to raise the debt ceiling to so you can spend money we don’t have to push through your precious health care plan is not good for this country.  Especially at the expense of jobs and American people’s livelihood.  

I hope every last one of you get removed at the end of your political term just out of principle.  I don’t care what side you’re on or what Party you claim.  You should all be ashamed of yourself for letting it come to this and being involved in this in the first place.  

Rant over and you will now be rejoining your regularly scheduled blogs already in progress!
