My brother solitaryfracture suggests that we vote the senators up for re-election out of office come November. I do agree with this, however, the unemployed need help NOW. Time is of the essence. I will not stand here and watch my Country destroy itself. Lets get this done. Come with me to Washington! Also, sorry for so many “F” bombs. Please note that I am being hyperbolic regarding the burning down and shooting of these Republican senators. Don’t actually do it. “Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends [ie, securing inherent and inalienable rights, with powers derived from the consent of the governed], it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.” –Thomas Jefferson: Declaration of Independence.
