Congress is a Joke!

That was the seed that germinated into the thought process that has developed into this post. While at work this morning, I was contemplating the congressman who interrupted BHO by shouting "Liar" (or something very similar).

The congressman was obviously really frustrated, as more and more common citizens are becoming, with the flat-out lies and half-truths that has been "The Great Benefactor's" campaign and reign thus far.

Congressman Joe Wilson immediately apologized to the president, who, along with VP Biden, etc., all accepted his apology. I, personally, don't feel he should have apologized for speaking the truth. Most, if not all, of what The Great Benefactor said in his speech to the joint session of Congress was lies. Pelosi, and the rest of the Democrats then proceed to hound Wilson to apologize to Congress as well. Thankfully, he told them no, that one apology was enough.

So then the Dems announce that this week they plan to formally reprimand Wilson for not apologizing to them too. This is what made me think they are a joke and what caused the thought process to initiate. They are so smug and self-righteous that they feel they deserve an apology as well, even though the presidency already accepted Wilson's apology to them and the matter has nothing directly to do with the rest of congress. Also, if Global Warming is such a threat, if Obamacare is so necessary,etc. etc., why would they feel the necessity to waste precious time reprimanding a fellow congressman when they could be spending that time "saving the world". But then,...

I began to think about it a little more and realized something:

Congress is not as dumb as we think they are but they are not as smart as they think they are.

They aren't a joke nor are they stupid for file an official reprimand. That will be on his record as a congressman and can be used against him when he's up for re-election. "don't vote for Wilson, look what he did in September 2009..."

However, they aren't as smart as they think they are because We, The People are on to their little schemes and realize that is exactly what they are trying to do. But their plan is going to backfire on them as they are replaced, one by one, for being so out of touch with reality and the rest of us that belong to this nation. The majority of We, The People also realize that the Great Benefactor is a liar and are fully supportive of Congressman Wilson. Our eyes are opening (well, at least the eyes of those that weren't open to begin with) and we've had enough.

This weekend there was a massive march on Washington DC. Local police reported that it was the largest gathering ever seen in front of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, larger even than inaugurations or Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech. Local authorities estimated numbers around 2 Million citizens (none of them paid, as the left-wing conspiracy-theorists will claim) all gathered to show BO just what we think of him. His inauguration only had ~1 Million people. Did he listen? Nope, as soon as he caught wind of something brewing, he high-tailed it out of their for the weekend on "vacation". And in true Kool-Aid drinking fashion, his propaganda distributors, the main-stream media, grossly underestimated attendance of the event either in the tens of thousands or around 200 thousand. Quite the difference, no?

To all those that voted for you Great Benefactor, thank you so very much; this is exactly what we wanted for our country (laced heavily with sarcasm). The time for repentance is at hand. Please step away from the Kool-Aid and return to the light.
