The old saying "absolute power corrupts absolutely" applies. The Founding Fathers were not perfect (who is?) but they did not intend for political positions to become career slots; politicians were only in office for a limited time and then went back to their full-time occupations. Term limits should apply for all politicians of all political parties. When their term is up, out they go and are replaced - again, regardless of political party. I believe a lot of regular folks are just plain fed up with the Demopublicans and Republicrats.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963208964879498427.post-39996927598466113762013-04-09T11:19:18.457-04:002013-04-09T11:19:18.457-04:00Mubarak's Rule: The longer a regime stays in p...Mubarak's Rule: The longer a regime stays in power the worse it treats its citizens and the more effort it expends on staying in power.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963208964879498427.post-58262325968629486582013-04-09T10:21:45.893-04:002013-04-09T10:21:45.893-04:00Lacey Woods Park bulldozed into two soccer fields ...Lacey Woods Park bulldozed into two soccer fields and 20 McMansions?
