HOW BLIND CAN YOU ALL BE?

I am not by nature one who really cares for the political BS
Avoiding these millionaires fools who claim to really care
When all they really want to do is to fleece our nation more

They have never once cared about you, me or we the people
They know the average American couldn't really care less
It's now long past that time when they cared about others

The voters say our guy won so now we'll get what we wanted
But they never do because their guy has already moved on
Oblivious to all of them or the promises he had given them

Those who had run for office and really did care about us
They never had any hope or prayer of winning their election
Because they weren't backed by the special interest groups

Those backers filling the pockets of lifetime politicians
Millions can to be made off of our own apathetic citizens
Politician's sell their own votes to the special interests

Then we'll all complain about these same greedy old politicians
They will steal from us to throw money at friends and foes alike
But never once will they ever think of what's best for you or me

You see we don't have the money special interest groups all have
Unless you can line their own pockets they have no interest in you
But they will profess to care deeply for our nation and our people

Words are very cheap and actions do speak much louder than words
Despite promises made they'll always take care of themselves first
Yet the people will wear blinders and keep reelecting these morons

It's extremely hard for me to understand why they ignore the facts
They never vote for those who really do care deeply about our nation
Voting instead for these crooks & fools who have only hurt everyone

Many today are suffering from apathy and vote without ever thinking
And so it goes on & on this vicious merry go round year after year
Having fought for our freedom I have to ask how blind can you all be?

Wake up my fellow citizens, the last election had nothing at all
to do with the color of someones skin. It was the same as it has
always been in these elections, it's always about who will grease
their palms and fill the pockets of these very corrupt and greedy
political types whose only real interest is in keeping or attaining
their own little empires in Washington DC. They really do not give
a damn about anyone else or anything at all except for their very
own personal wealth that they can and will build up from all those
Special Interest Groups who only want something for themselves and
will reward these greedy politicians for voting in their own favor.
Just what will it take for the people of our nation to wake up and
see that these career politicians are destroying this country from
within our borders and they'll soon make the Great Depression look
like it was only a Sunday picnic by comparison. It has really been
a slap in the face to all of the veterans of this great nation who
have and are serving our nation and have died or who were wounded
helping to defend this nation and our freedom. Have any of you ever
taken any History or any Government classes when you were in school?
I pray that some day very soon that our people will all finally open
up their eyes and see what has been happening to our own Great Nation
and that they'll say enough is enough and will finally vote to throw
these professional bloodsuckers out of the elected offices from which
they've continued to dishonor their positions and their offices with
their tainted votes that they make to only help out all those Special
Interests Groups who've greased their palms and have lined their own
pockets with all those questionable donations and funds. What has to
happen before the citizens of our nation will remove their blinders
so they can see clearly what they have helped these idiots to do to
our beloved nation? Do you not care about your children or even your
grandchildren's futures? Hopefully you all will remove those rose
colored glasses or the dark blinders that you have worn in elections
past, for this certainly wasn't the change anyone had really wanted
for our Great Nation and I pray that we as Americans wake up before
it is far too late for all of us here to save America. Watching all
these latest news clips on the possible candidates who've announced
that they are running in the next Presidential election to replace
our current one who cannot run again because of term limits, is the
the most corrupt candidate of all time who is trailing more dirty
laundry and skeletons in her own baggage than all other candidates
combined and is far more threat to our nation than our current one
has been in his two terms in office. We've had enough of all these
relatives of former Presidents who are running to be our leader and
especially such a miserable failure at every position she has held
since her husband was President, I will never forget her sarcastic
tone and remarks when as Secretary of State she was testifying at
a Congressional hearing about our Ambassador in Libya and others
were killed by terrorists because she and her State Department had
refused an urgent request that she send the Marines in to help save
the Ambassador and his staff. When asked why she refused to send help
she responded with a very sarcastic "What difference does it make now"
Well it makes one hell of a difference to this old warrior and many
others too. By the way, just how did you make all those millions of
dollars anyway? We certainly didn't pay you that kind of salary.

OPEN YOUR EYES, YOUR MINDS AND YOUR HEARTS AND WHEN YOU VOTE IN
THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION THINK OF YOUR OWN CHILDREN AND
YOUR OWN GRANDCHILDREN BEFORE YOU VOTE ONLY FOR YOUR OWN PARTY
BECAUSE THEY AND THEIR FUTURES ARE FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY
OLD CORRUPT POLITICIAN NO MATTER WHICH PARTY THEY BELONG TO.
