If you thought there would be "real change" in D.C., boy were you sure fooled.
No lobbyist in the obama administration, yeah, heard that one before.
The change is this: The Republican lobbyist are out and the Democratic lobbyist on in. Two sides of the same rotten apple.
If you hand some one a dollar bill and ask for change, you usually will get a dollar but in different shapes.
Take Tom Daschle and wife Linda for instance. Linda Hall Daschle has been a lobbyist for many years for some of the biggest special interest groups. Since Tom was defeated in 2004 he has tried his hand at lobbying.
Change in D.C. is musical chairs on the Titanic.
Bring in an outsider to D.C. and what do you get? DD SOS (different day, same old shit).
Do you think that the Founding Fathers meant big special rich interest groups to lobby the government? I don't. They were thinking citizens, common folk.
Has the experiment failed or just taken a wrong turn? What will it take to change it back? Involvement of the people? Yeah, dream on.
Most of the time, I feel that no one cares and no one is paying attention. Go out and ask the first person you see what they think about the Wall Street bailout and see how they react. Most will look at you like you are nuts, some might say "what?". 99.9 per cent have no clue. Although they can tell you who the Three Stooges are.
Besides me, no one cares. But when it comes time to raise taxes, they will yell. , bloody fucking murder.
I should just shut up, keep my mouth shut.
But not today.
So here I am "STUCK IN THE MIDDLE WITH YOU".
