Well the grill is fired up in the chambers of the House Financial Services Committee meeting. The latest "meat" to be grilled are CEO's of the banking industry. Rep. Barney Frank has told these CEO's that they must work hard to gain back the public trust.
I have a better idea. Hey Rep. Frank...how about you and the other members of the House work to try and get back the public trust?
I just cannot believe that an organization that has an approval rating of 31.7% (that is the current average) is out to tell anyone to go earn back the public trust. The public lost its trust in the congress when Bush was president. They used to chide Bush about his approval ratings when the approval rating for congress was 10 points below that for Bush.
Get real Mr. Frank. As far as I am concerned we would do better having the other Barney in the House of Representatives. By the other "Barney" I am referring to that purple dinosaur. Come to think of it, there is a resemblance and you never see the two of them together.
No one in the House or Senate seems to be the least bit worried that their approval ratings are below that of Barry Bonds. No one in the House or the Senate seems to be willing to do a damn thing to try and gain back the trust and respect of WE THE PEOPLE. This is part of what makes me wonder why WE THE PEOPLE re-elect these relics to office.
Hey Mr. Frank. I realize that you don't read into the New Testament a lot. But there is a valuable lesson for you there if you take the time to read it. You might want to pass this along to the others in the House cause I don't think most of them read the Bible much either. Look at Luke 6:41-42 or Matthew 7:3-5. Then get the plank out of your own eye before you try and get the speck out of someone else's.
Now I know that didn't stick so let us try it this way. Get the public confidence and trust in Congress back Mr. Frank. Then you can tell others to do the same.
