Do As I Say, Not As I Do - Congressional Motto

How many times have you heard this old saying or said it about a bad parenting situation or even said it to yourself under certain circumstances? Is this not exactly what our Congress is telling us and doing today? Here are just a few examples:

Thy shalt not kill, unless you're a senator named Kennedy

Thy shalt not commit adultery, too many to name except there's always the big one Clinton

Thy shalt pay taxes on time, unless you're Sec. of Treasury or Rep. Charles Rangel

Thy shalt not lie, unless you're Speaker of the House Pelosi

And, the list goes on, the point being is our Congress wants us to live under a system they would have no part of. Let's just take the current issue of health care. How many of OUR elected congress people will stand up and say I will give up my Congressional Health Care Plan that is good for life and take whatever we decide for the citizens? Find one, they're far a few if any. But, this is the point we must MAKE our Congress People live under the same laws, rules and policies they make us live under. Including if you commit a crime oh say like murder, one should be tried, right Senator Kennedy?

I know the folks for the most part reading this agree but we must get the folks that aren't reading it or thinking about it to understand. Businessmen and women should make business decisions not idiots in positions of power that have never made payroll, run a lemonade stand or done anything else worthwhile. We must have leaders that are proud of this country and not apologize for anything our forefathers did or that we have done. As a country we've not been perfect but a damn site better than any other country ever on this earth.

Finally just a quick thought on racism. I have never seen a President more racist than Obama and it is going to lead to BIG problems in the future mark my word. What he said was NO mistake and will be at some point a rallying call. Who was it that said, Stupid is as stupid does? Mr. Gump I believe, think about it, is he stupid or setting us up?

Make OUR elected officials live by the rules that they legislate for us so they can say, Do AS I Say and As I Do. By the way would someone please point out to me where in the Constitution does it say OUR elected representatives shall have privileges unlike the rest of the citizenry?
