My dad always told me that there were two things you never wanted to hear a Politian or Salesman to say and that is Trust Me or I am just looking out for you. He said if they said either of those two things, grab your wallet and run, because they are about to take you for a ride and after that ride you will be broke and the Politician would raise your taxes all the time telling you they really were not raising your taxes but the other guys. But lately I have been hearing too many Politicians’ say trust them that they know how to get us out of this financial mess they got us into. One critic stated this week that George Bush will be out of office next week and things will be different. Well that is all good except for one minor point she forgot to state; George Bush is only one man and it took guess who else to get us into this mess? If you said Congress you are correct. Matter of fact if you are willing to look at this with an open mind you will see that congress more then President Bush has been responsible for this mess. Yes he did ask for a lot of the spending but it took congress to authorize it; a minor fact that Congress will not tell you. Trouble is most Americans have a closed mind approach to politics. You hear the same thing all the time, I am a Democrat and it’s the Republicans fault or I am a Republican and it’s the Democrat’s fault. Here is one I really love, I am an independent and so it’s not my fault. An independent is just some one who will not take a stand because that means a commitment and responsibility; no they just sit on the fence to see which way the wind blows and then jumps in after it is over with to say I told you so. So when these politicians say trust me all I could do is say, well here we go again I am about to get you know what again and I hope they the politicians at lest use Vaseline this time because they are playing heck with my hemorrhoids. What ever happened to the true Statesman who actually did the peoples business? Did they all become Politicians?
