    Default Are You Kidding? (Small business owner gives politicians a piece of his mind)

    This short video is by a frustrated man who talks about sacrifices business owners are expected to make and asks why Congress and the president don't make any. I sure like what this guy has to say:

    Whats wrong with the way the Pres. and the leaders are acting?
    I thought they were doing an outstanding job, why they have almost sunk this country, with very little help from anyone else.
    Between the pres, congress, the senate and the whole bunch including Americas sweetheart nancy pissolousy I was going to suggest that we all get together and give them all a big raise.
    Man this guy is so inappreciative to all of the hard work these people do, I mean the rest of the country, just sit around while these underpaid leaders are doing all the work.
    Man talk about ungreatful.

    We probably all are - but at least we're in good company.

    I get and agree with everything the guy says, except for one thing; The People are not going to rise en mass to kick those "clowns" out. 435 Congress-critters, and the Tea Party could only manage around 80 seats in '10. Might have seemed like a major paradigm shift to some then, maybe even to me, but then they got in and started voting to extend the Patriot Act and voted almost unanimously to pass NDAA. The only possible chance this guy has of affecting change is if he runs against his district's representative, or makes a Senate run, and either one of those choices is doomed for failure too, unless he has enough political clout in his district and/or state. Half-way decent rhetorical flourishes, but sorry, I found it hollow and meaningless.
