I never thought I'd say this but...

...I actually agree with something said by Gov. Rick Perry (R TX).

I agree with him when he says that Washington needs to stop thumbing it's nose at the American people. You see, the American people have resoundingly voted for change in the past two election cycles and we haven't gotten it yet.

• We voted for a more equitable and liberal country and we have not gotten it yet, we're still attached to the rotting ball sacks of multinational corporations, the military industrial complex, and the prison industrial complex.
• The majority of Americans want us out of the quagmire in Iraq and they don't want the war in Afghanistan escalated, and yet we're still there.
• A majority of Americans wants single payer universal health insurance in this country and we still have not gotten it yet, and it looks like we won't get it either.
• The majority of the people want the previous administration to be investigated for war crimes and war profiteering and that has not happened yet.
• The majority of people in this country think the rich and corporations don't pay their fair share of taxes, so why are they not being made to pony up the dough?

So hell yeah, I agree with the Texas panderer, the people in the halls of power in Washington DC do indeed need to start to heed the will of the people and they need to get all those things the majority of us want done, done ASAP.
