A Liberal Decries the Democrats' Hypocrisy

There an interesting read over at Etherzone.com by freelance writer John Bender, who is no lover of George Bush and has strong liberal leaning tendencies on many issues. Surprisingly, this article comes down hard on the hypocrisy of the Democrats who promise one thing, condemning everything the Bush administration does, but in actuality, they end up just giving us more of the same.

Where have all the true patriots and statesmen gone? I wonder if this wouldn’t work better for us…

1. Clean house. Get rid of every politician in the Congress, Senate, and White House
2. Pass a law that says no one may actively campaign for or seek public office. Anyone seeking to hold a public office is automatically disqualified to serve.
3. Pass a law that says if an individual is voted on by the people to serve in an office, that they mandatorily have to accept the position for a set number of years
4. Let the people choose individuals based on their character and convictions, and demand that they serve (sort of like jury duty).

Crazy? Maybe. But no crazier than what we have now.

Be sure to read the Bender article. It’s sure to raise your dander.
