Truly the root of all evil has conquered. We don’t elect people to office anymore, the one that accummilates the most money ia appointed. The threat to the security of this country in less important than the accummilation of money; the threat to the security of this country is less important than allowing lobbyists to bribe our easily bribed elected persons; the threat to the security of this country is less important than the as a real watchdog of the government of this republic; the threat to this country is enhanced by the non-education of the masses.

Governor Rick Perry said it best last night on Situation room…
“We want Barak Obama to come to Texas and spend lots of money”
This money is spent and people are employed, Only a socialist could hate this system.
