Has this all been the U.S. process and do you agree?

The 111th Congress may be the Congress that pays for all past Congress doings.
It’s all got to stop sometime, right?

Americans are concerned MOST with the high crimes and other illegal activities of the Bush Administration. Congress and the President continue to shift the conversations to healthcare, the economy, etc. What they don’t seem to understand is Americans’ realize their plate is full of “urgent” issues. They’ve been urgent for middle America for decades!

What they are not willing to accept, is that Americans (I believe) want them to quit crying about it and fix things as quickly as possible. Americans want their representative to reflect “their majority will” for a change. Why? Because we know why and how things have gotten to this urgent stage. We know the seeds planted causing it all to become so urgent rests with “their” past decisions and practices. What are those?

At least 35 years ago, with primarily Republican congressional majorities, Congress not only represented Big Corp Gods – but married them through their own need for power, jobs, things, greed. It has been a marriage of them, together marching the great middle class down a wide road to hell, shoving groups of them, every so often along the way, into the abyss pits of “no way to get out of this” return to a somewhat low financial, physical, spiritually sustaining life. They have stolen billions from “borrowing” Social Security and Medicare dollars – but can’t think of a way to pay it back. Over the last 8 years, for the first time in history, they created a whole new venue for spending tax dollars by marrying the Big Religious Corp Gods and “birthing” the Faith Based Initiative Programs. It is illegal, fought everyday in our courtrooms, and continues to waste, hide, and lie to Americans under the Obama Administration. The billions given that office a year could provide the start we need to get away from the ridiculous idea that employers should pay for our healthcare, and start a single payer universal medicare-like healthcare program. The people who Obama met for 2 years across America were standing outside his home last week for single payer healthcare, to who he’s told them THAT “is off the table.”

So, Americans know why and how issues have become so emergent. They expect the 111th Congress to change things with the new president. We are free to put at the top of our list the Torture and High Crimes issue. Was it Churchill who told us never to “hide” the pictures of the Nazi camps and horrors, so the world would never forget and go down that path again? Was Congress so helpless in 2006 with a 1947 law that Sen Wyden has told us “the Bush Admin. broke consistently” by not giving Congress complete intel info? Was the 110th Congress so helpless they could not, even with slight majority then, investigate the many horrors we were watching and hearing about from an illegal war that has never been proved why we attacked Iraq to publicly identifying secret CIA agents, to dozens more? Instead Speaker Pelosi believed her only out, only job was not to cry “fowl!” rather to bring in an new administration during the election cycle.

If this is true, Congress needs to fix this FIRST. We cannot have rogue presidents who command the other equal branches of government. The photos and the investigation of the Bush Admin better become America’s FIRST priority while democrats divide, support each other to conquer/change the other urgent issues a.s.a.p. Until the whole truth is out, we CANNOT move forward. We cannot build good, solid change on the sands of half truths and lies. We must get through this as a country. Only then, down the legal path to accountability can Americans be afforded their spirit, their will, their trust again to rebuild our nation and integrity. If we do not, we will surely die, and another generation rallied will walk from the process and duty as the patriots they must become and remain. Justice is ALWAYS won. It is won when people with passion for truth are willing to lay down their lives for it, not just their jobs or status. Wake up 111th.
You!
