Why do we still have elections? There lied to get elected. They lied when elected. They will lie when they run again. Ryan, McCain, Graham, Cornyn just to name a few. They are not representing us. There was once a revolution and it was because there was taxation without representation as I recall. Is it any different now? It is time to “dump some tea.” To have a Lexington and Concord.

And don't forget: they also ask us for contributions to their campaigns, so that when they get in office, they can continue to lie to us!

In the old days, one who went against his constituents might expect a party when he returned home — warm tar and feathers.

Were that tradition to return, you would see pols changing their postitions on many issues.
