Sorry, Finn, I can't make it this evening.
(I teach from 6-10pm on Tuesdays.)

I'd love to be there to identify the real culprits:  i.e the ones
who actually hired the all of incompetent managers, such as:
	Chris Cox, 
	the heads of both Fannie & Freddie, 
	Andrew Cuomo (HUD head who can't account for $68 billion)
	both Bernanke and Greenspan
	all of the Treasury Dept. secretarys and undersecretarys (who should have seen this coming)

No, not Clinton and the Bushes, who merely appointed them, 
but the Board of Directors that approved every single hiring.
There are 100 members on this board of directors, which 
approved every single hiring.  They all should be FIRED.

The Senate is actually the "Board of Directors" that approved 
every single one of these guys, and has oversight over their
performance.  This Board, which was asleep at the switch, 
should all be DUMPED.  All 100 of them should be dumped 
when their terms end (or sooner!)

So should the group that is responsible for Federal budgets,
national debt, and for every penny spent from the treasury.  
The President merely proposes a budget (which Congress 
always ignores) and the President cannot spend any money 
-- all revenue bills originate in the House!  Because of their
demonstrable incompetence in economic management,
ALL 435 so-called Representatives should be FIRED, 
this November!

FIRE THE CONGRESS!
All 535 of them, including the ones who tried to stop the 
recent kleptocracy.

Ron Paul had it right, when he addressed the House 
and identified the underlying problem.  But he FAILED, 
and even he should be swept away with the rest of the 
incompetent failures by a voter uprising to oust ALL 535
members of Congress, four weeks from today.

FIRE THE CONGRESS!
Every single one of them should be ousted - especially
the long-term incumbents with no term limits.
(e.g. Biden and McCain).

bam

P.S.  During the primaries, there was virtually no debate
about the economy (and hardly any about energy).
Now, the voters of over 40 states (including NY and Texas)
have NO choice in the Presidential election, due to their
states' "winner-take-all" rules for state-wide electors.

We need a "do-over" for the primaries.

The other day, I saw a great bumper-sticker, which an
overwhelming majority would support.  It said:

	SOMEBODY ELSE
	FOR PRESIDENT

Since the Electoral College is already decided in NY and 
most other states, those voters are free to cast a 3rd-party 
vote for President, without changing the result!  A high 
vote total for 3rd-party candidates would certainly signal
the people's disgust with the two establishment parties.

All we can do is vent our frustrations on  November 4th,
by voting out ALL incumbents (Federal and State), and
voting 3rd-party for President (since it won't affect the 
outcome in our state).

JUST SAY NO!
