18) The more loyal a block of voters in politics, the more they get screwed by the politicians representing them.

THIS one... we should all keep an eye on it for our own.

41. Most politicians are expert at one thing. Getting elected yet believe and act as if they are experts at everything.

Bonus- Name one thing (besides military) the Government does extremely well and efficiently.

#8. Whenever a GOP politician is caught in the wrong the label “GOP” is in the headline. Whenever a Rat is caught the mention of “Democrat” is below the 3rd paragraph, if at all.

No worse than the military in being efficacious or efficient, I nominate the national air traffic control system.

I worked for the F.A.A. for 5 years AFTER I retired from the USAF for 26+ years, all of it as an air traffic controller.

I DISAGREE !

The USAF is MUCH BETTER at air traffic control, than the F.A.A. !

In National politics, what has the Republican Party done for pre-lifers? For Second Amendment supporters?

(State Republicans have generaly been very responsive to our interests.)
