At it again!!!

Looking at the news today and what to my wondering eyes do appear. Another congressman saying "it wasn't our fault".

Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) is the chairman of a House Oversight and Government Reform committee. He blames the whole mess on the big credit ratings agencies like Standard and Poor's.

The California Democrat said, "Millions of investors rely on them for independent, objective assessments,. The rating agencies broke this bond of trust, and federal regulators ignored the warning signs and did nothing to protect the public. The result is that our entire financial system is now at risk."

Hey Waxman you ass...millions of American investors also rely on Congress to protect them from crooks like this. But I don't see you folks taking any action. All the action that was attempted in 2005 was blocked by partisan politics. I have only seen one congressman stand up and say that y'all had it wrong. That was Arthur Davis, D-AL. Not any of the other 434 members of the house had the guts to stand up in front of country and apologize for this mess. That includes republicans as well as democrats. Oh...and let us not leave out the 100 members of the Senate.

You hear that so many of the people here in the US are fed up with the partisan politics. Yet 'We the People' won't do the one thing we can do to put a stop to it. Stop voting for incumbents and give others a chance. You can bet you ass that if 'We the People' voted just 50% of the 435 members of the House of Representatives out of office in 12 days that they would all take notice.

It is time to hold all of them accountable. But it is up to 'We the People' to do that. You can't vote all the other representatives out of office...but you can vote your own out.

Get the word out. Get them out of office on November 4th.
