We have a do-nothing Congress because we have a do-nothing citizenry. In 2010 less than 38 percent of eligible voters voted. In that election 88 percent of incumbents were reelected. Most American voters don't vote and those that do keep electing the same people. Perhaps the reason people don't vote is that they feel they must pick the lesser of two evils. You could give voters a better choice.

If you are sick of Washington politics I invite you to make a difference and run for Congress. The job pays $174,000 per year. You must act now as the filing deadlines in many states are fast approaching. Find out how you can run for office at www.goooh.com. GOOOH (pronounced Go) intends to challenge incumbents, in the primaries, with citizen representatives chosen by the members of their district. That could be you or someone you know.

    Yes it is interesting how certain people and groups never find any fault within but can easily blame the other side for any and all problems. Now lets see where was it that I just saw a couple examples of that ?[wink]

    When any politician wins a government seat he or she has been bought and paid for buy those who financed their campaign when all is done they will bow and kiss the butts for four years of those who put them in office. That is why voter are not going to the polls. If we want representatives in office who represent the people get the money out of politics. Has anyone notice one political party finds it ok to mine copper in Superior even though arsenic will contaminate our drinking water or mining in the Grand Canyon where urainium could poision the water of the Colorado River for millions of people or the Keystone pipe line could devistate a major acquifer in the U.S. even when this oil will be exported to other countries all in the name of jobs, but these same politicans will not cut the tax breaks for corporations that out source our jobs, and are payed $1000.00 a day.

    The “fire House Speaker Nancy Pelosi”, was part of the GOOOH (pronounced Go) movements to "clean house" in 2010. And they did not succeed during the 2010 election.

    Fed up with Congress and want to send all the lawmakers packing next year?

    Irving B. Welchons’ letter from Charlotte, NC “Do-nothing citizen responsible for do-nothing Congress” is again a join GOOOH.COM plan to remove members of the U.S. House of Representatives and replace the career politicians with everyday true American citizen representatives.
