I remember when I worked for an Admiral in the Navy and a General in the Air Force. They both taught me one thing....be careful who you step on because one day they may step back. The Veterans of this nation, those who have served and those who are now serving, and the American people living in America are one day soon going to step back.

You sit in your little puny chairs in the Senate chambers and you walk on your SILENT shoes down the Halls of Congress and you Senators and Congress men and women have fun. Live it up while you can because one day you are ALL going to pay the price for your ignorance, your apathy, your stupidity and your high degree of greed! We are getting sick and tired of you democrats (not capitalized on purpose) and you republicans (not capitalized on purpose) spending your time on your greed and your apathy and our money to make a mockery of this government and this economy.

You do not have solutions to the problems we are now facing, like high gas prices, high prescription drug prices, Social Security, and other pressing matters, because it is not on your agenda and it is not in your best interests to do so. If you are a democrat you spend all your time blaming the republicans for everything. If you are a republican you spend all your time blaming the democrats for everything. And neither one of you contribute even one ounce of common sense and integrity to the veterans, to the American people, to America and the American way of life.

You all need to stand up to be counted and get your whining act together NOW because this nation needs a congress and a senate that can put America back on the right path. You spend so much time telling all of us here in America how much you are going to do for us and America, that you do not have time to sit down or stand up and actually do it. You have lost sight of what is important and what is right and just for America.

You need to realize and comprehend just how many veterans are homeless and how many are moving in that direction.....NOW! You need to realize and comprehend just how much a gallon of gas is costing every person in this nation, and you need to realize it NOW! The costs are not just for the gas tank or the vehicles we drive but for the people living in homes in America. People are having to chose whether to take medicine they cannot afford or to eat food they cannot afford. They need to pay a visit to an agency and others who can help them in cars they cannot afford to drive because the gas is too high and wipes out the prescription drug money, the heating bill money, and the money used for necessities of life and death.

We all heard one party tell us we are moving in a new direction or if you vote for us, we will move in a new direction. HOGWASH! We are moving faster in a worse direction than when you got on your soapbox and started telling us how much good you would do but can and will not do!

Veterans....Americans....I urge all of you to stand up to be counted and to do your part to make sure that what we have in office right now does not continue to do what they are doing and they are required to answer to all of us, the people, as to why they have and are failing us all. Gas continues to rise and so does the profits reaped by people in Congress and the Senate because it is on their agenda.

Veterans....America....hang in there. We can put an end to all this mockery of our entire system by making sure we VOTE and we vote to replace EVERY one of these people who cannot and will not represent us as they should. They do not care how much we pay for gas and they could care less how much we pay for our prescription drugs. Their agenda is to ensure that they vote in their own pay raises to suit their needs so that they will always have the money they want when they want it, at our expense.

Yes, Congress and the Senate, you enjoy yourselves because the day of reckoning is coming and like it says in the Bible, it will come like a thief in the night. One day you will wake up and realize that the election you thought you were going to win, simply turned over and you were swept away by the same kind of hypocrisy that you have been preaching to us.
